426 The Walls are breached - Part 29
Monday, Continued …
Amanda continued talking to the three of them "Remember that there will be someone for you that will not give a care about what has happened to you.They will not treat you differently for something out of your control.They will see if for what it is, someone abusing you.There will be people around you that support you.You have us, and each other. We will help your family understand what happened.Do not blame yourself."
Sophie having grasped some of what Amanda was saying quietly said"Madam Yao, let me talk.
I think I get where you are coming from, but if we talk about it we will get what your are meaning.
Even admitting what has happened has taken time, let alone this which now is moving more quickly than we would expect."
Anna at that moment felt her phone vibrate and tuned out from the conversation that the girls discussions.Anna read the messagewhich was a response from Hou Yi \'Do not stress out.The firm that helped Anna and I will send three female lawyers to help you out. They will be at the police station in five or so minutes\'
Amanda sent a message \'Thanks Boss.Should be there in about ten minutes.\'
Amanda put away her mobile, and realised that the girls were simply crying.Dealing with Alecia, Junior and Ton for a few years, made her know how she needed to handle this.She needed to stop thinking about this situation as a lawyer, but as a mother.
Amanda turned to them "Girls.I have three step-children your age.You can tell me to go jump.You do not have to do this if you do not want to.In the end I will support your decision, whatever it is.Just remember that all I want to do is what you want.Nothing else matters than you do."
Mary with those few words understood that here was someone who understood them, and moved enough that she could have a hug from an adult that cared.All she could do was cry while Amanda hugged her, and simply reassured her that everything would be OK.
The next thing that they knew, the car pulled up outside the the police station.Amanda turned to them and said "Girls, now we have arranged that there will be some female lawyers that can be in with you when the police talk to you about what happened.They will need to talk to you separately, and I figured that the last thing that you would want to do was to sit an wait while one of you were spoke to."
"Rather than favouring one of you, I will be outside in the police station waiting but if any of you need extra support simply ask and I will come in to see you.The lawyers that are coming all know that I am here for your support."
Amanda paused, and turned and asked "Girls, are you ready?"
Amanda looked at the three of them and they were all nodding.Amanda opened the door and stepped out, and as the girls climbed out the bodyguards that had followed them in the second vehicle formed a loose circle around the.
Amanda could see that it was starting to make them nervous "Girls, do not worry about them.My husband is a company CEO and he is concerned about my safety so when I am not at work or with him, he has bodyguards that make sure that I am safe.That is all they are here for.Hey, think about it, they will also protect you from anything, most likely even me.And more importantly I know four of them have daughters so they will be highly protective of you, as they are of my step-daughter."
Without realising it, Amanda had carefully walked the girls to the entryway of the police station.She turned to them "Now girls, what do you want to do?"
The three of them all looked at each other, and realised since they had made the move into the entertainment industry just on twelve months earlier this was the first time they had a real choice to make for themselves, not career driven.Even when they joined the entertainment industry, their parents had pressured each of them to take the opportunity so they could help support their family.
After nodding to each other together they said "We want to go through with this."
