Chapter 39 Hurting
- The next day, Avery’s case was officially decided. She was convicted of manslaughter, and because the circumstances were minor, she was sentenced to three years in prison with a suspension of execution for a period of three years.

- Avery was only wearing a thin shirt, making her look even more helpless and weak.
