-It is declared to Mr. Dean Lombard guilty by the almost attempt of first grade homicide of Mrs. Jolie Lombard. She has the right to get a divorce. For Mr. Lombard'd sentence, he'll be eighty years in prison, without the right to bail. Next case. - The judge orders, closing the case

Juliette and her mother look at Dean who's being handcuffed by two officers. Both women take each other's hands strongly by feeling Dean's look on them. Once they took Mr. Lombard away, Juliette llooks at her mother who has pain in her expression.

-I didn't want to do this but I couldn't let your father get away with it after what he did to me and almost marrying you with Jerome by obligation. - Juliette gives her mother half a smile and nods.

Both women stand up and walk to exit the courtroom. Once they're out, Edward approaches his partner to hug her strongly.

-Are you okay? How was everything? - He asks separating from her

-Yeah, he'll be eighty years in prison with no right to bail, and the judge granted divorce to my parents. - Juliette explains

Both vampires look at Juliette's mother who's talking with Esme. In the past two months, both of them became good friends. Jolie knows the Cullen's secret and knows what happened to Juliette. Jolie thanked them since she knew that they helped her daughter since the beginning along with the Denalis which she still didn't have the pleasure to meet.

-Are you gonna go see him? - Edward asks, looking back at his partner

-He's my father, I wanna say 'goodbye' to him. My mom and I decided not to visit him for him to think about what he did. - Juliette says taking his hands

-Will your see him? - She shakes her head immediately.

-No, she already told me that she doesn't have anything to talk about with my father. - Edward gives the blonde girl half a smile before taking her cheeks and give her a small kiss on the lips.

Juliette follows an officer who'll take her to where her father is before being transferred to the ADX prison in Florence, Colorado. After walking for a few seconds, the officer stops in front of her.

-You have only twenty minutes. - Juliette nods slowly, looking at her father who's looking at a wall in his cell.

-Dad. - She whispers taking a step towards him

-Julie... - Dean says smiling before standing up and approaching the bars to be near his daughter

-Don't call me that. - Juliette begs, remembering all the times that Jerome called her that way

-Dear, you have to convince the judge to reduce my sentence. I gotta get out of here to cure you and your mother. - He says trying to take his daughter's hand but she walks backwards immediately
