This statement is false. Although Bethany does want to discuss a "delicate" matter with Donna, there is no indication that this is a "legal matter" (a matter which concerns the law). A "matter" in this context refers to a subject of conversation or an issue. Bethany mentions that she will be in court on Thursday, which is the only reference to "law" or "legal matters" in this message.
This is a true statement. In her outgoing message, Donna specifies that people who wish to make an appointment should use her "online booking form". To "book (an appointment)" refers to scheduling or reserving one. Example: I have booked an appointment at the dentist for 2:30pm on Tuesday. An "online booking form" is a form accessible by Internet which allows people to reserve appointments "online". This tells us that Donna doesn't want people to schedule or "book" appointments over the phone.
This is a true statement. Bethany tells Donna that she changed her number because she was getting "abusive calls from a man (she) sent to prison". An "abusive phone call" is one that is "menacing" or "threatening". We can assume that these phone calls are unwanted.
This statement is false. Bethany says in her message, "It's been ages since I've seen you". The expression "it's been ages" expresses that "it has been a long time" since Donna and Bethany have spoken. This tells us that Donna and Bethany have not spoken to each other recently.
