Zoe was seething. "Someone was obviously trying to plant fake evidence to incriminate Cordy.""Even if we know that, the judge won't buy it," Quinn told her. "Also, I met Helen Zalenski, who insisted she was just following your orders to the letter, and it's the same response to every question I had. As for your secretary Vince Cartman, he said he only approved all the documents in question with office automation because they bore your written signature. I checked, and all the original copies did have your signature—here, I've made photocopies. Could you check if you did sign them?'Quinn passed the documents to Cordy as she spoke, and Cordy glanced at the signatures. "The signature is mine," she said. "But I am positive that I did not sign them.""In other words, someone faked your signature and had Helen send it to your secretary. He approved it via online automation since you'd already signed them, stamping and sealing them into a revenue report," Quinn concluded. "They really

John eventually asked, "Do you mind if I take a copy?""No," Cordy replied. "Thank you." Cordy pursed her lips—he was thanking her even though he was helping her with her case."I'm going now. I'll call you right away if there are any developments on my end," he said and left without a delay."I only have two weeks," Cordy reminded him."I know."With that, she watched as he left.He had looked composed and showed no nerves when he read the file, but he left in such a hurry.So, was it going to be difficult for him too?-Zoe returned soon after John left, but she and Quinn probably did not leave, and Zoe returned once she saw John leave. "Quinn said that she has other stuff to do," Zoe told her. "She said that she'll inform you immediately once she has something on the case and that you should contact her as well if you get something. Her phone is on 24/7.""Alright," Cordy replied. As she continued to read through her case files again, Zoe was staring at her for a l

As Zoe headed to the film set, Penny quickly followed. Her stunt double already had her wire harness on, while Jay stood beside her and explained his directions.The stunt double looked almost the same age as Zoe and was quite the docile creature. Zoe herself had heard more than a few others in the film crew praising her.With her good looks and willingness to suffer, she would be able to rise to stardom once she got lucky.As Zoe stood and watched her stunt double being raised into the air, she started to feel fear and her body trembled just from looking.Feeling a little guilty, she thought about treating her stunt double to a nice dinner and giving her a present. But even as the thought crossed her mind, there was a loud snapping sound overhead, and the stunt double hovering up in the air was suddenly wobbling before the wire severed completely.Everyone screamed in shock, while Zoe was left petrified and watched as the stunt double fell dozens of feet down, landing squar

The doors to the operation room opened just then, and a pale-faced woman was wheeled out, looking utterly enfeebled.Still, her injury was not at all serious.However, as everyone including Nancy turned toward Cora Gooding, she felt as if she was punched in the gut, her breath leaving her lungs right then.Clara had been a maid in Levine Manor when both Nancy and Clara got pregnant around the same time. After Clara delivered her baby, she insisted on returning to her hometown with her daughter and left the Levines' service…'No! That's impossible!'Nancy's face turned pale. She could not believe something so ridiculous would happen to her! She could not believe that the daughter she had raised over twenty years was not actually hers!And yet, Zoe's blood type…Nancy rushed to a doctor nearby and asked, "What is this patient's blood type?""A," he replied.Nancy felt another punch in the gut right then.And that face which looked almost just like Zoe's… Nancy could not thi

They had to save Zoe.John turned right then and saw Jay quickly and quietly approaching the nurse.Come to think of it, he was of type AB blood.Meanwhile, Clara was crying hysterically on the floor. "Please, Ms. Levine, I'm begging you… Please save Zoe! Whatever it is, just take it out on me, okay? Please…"She never thought that one moment of impulse would hurt her daughter to such an extent. And if Zoe really died… No, she refused to think about that!But even as she cried and begged, Nancy simply ignored her and walked up to Cora, who was still too feeble to speak."Send her to the best ward you have," she told the medical staff present icily. "No one is allowed to visit her without my permission." They knew who she was and therefore agreed to it immediately.Nancy then turned to tell John, "I'm your real family, Johnny—we have ties that bind. I'm sure you wouldn't betray me or do anything that would hurt me."John certainly knew what she was insinuating: he must not
