บท 92: Background Check

If Lu Meili had just admitted the crime and accepted the lifetime imprisonment, it would have been easier for Long Kael to pull some strings to set her free eventually when at the time the citizens have forgotten about the incident. 

At this moment, the incident was made public and Long Kael could not use the grey areas of the law to show special treatment even if Long Cheng begged. 

What if the elders decided to kill Long Cheng's mate and not give her a chance all along? For hit, it was not impossible, as elders were really not so keen to accept an outsider as any royalty's mate. 

They all knew that since Lu Meili was an outsider, there would be no one willing to be defending her aside from Long Cheng himself. This was also not acceptable as it would be considered bias.
