After a brief moment of silence, Soren sadd, “As much as | how you're capable of handling your own problems, |
still want to emphasize that you can callfor help whenever you need it.
I'll always be here for you ”
| looked at him with a gentle expression and nodded. “Okay”
We then headed downstairs together. He got into his car and drove off while | walked my dog.

| hadn't realized the police could be so efficient.
After talking to Ace, | learned that the two suspects who had assaulted Edith had filmed the entire incident.
The video showed Edith, drugged and out of her mind, offering herself to both of them-making it clear that spe

The police had believed all along that the suspects had drugged Edith before assaulting her, which would have
made the case much more serious for them.
Moreover, the Kennedys had hired an excellent lawyer who used his connections with higher-ups to ensure the
suspects would face severe punishment.
It all seemed set in stone, until | handed over the video evidence.
“To be honest, both suspects have always denied drugging Miss Kennedy, but they had no proof to support their
innocence. The Kennedys were insistent on pressing charges.
“But after you submitted that video evidence, the nature of the crchanged: the victim had drugged herself,
allowing the suspects to take advantage of her.

“With all the evidence now in the open, she'll be tried for attempting to cause severe harm to another person

“Understood. | hope the police and the court can deliver justice in this matter.”
After sending Ace off, | thought about how much of a mess the Kennedys must be in. They'd brought all of this
chaos upon themselves.

Suddenly, Cherry knocked on my door and entered with a troubled expression. “Tay Tay...”
“What's the matter?”
Cherry pouted. “Ms. Thompson hasn’t been to work the past two days, and the janitors can’t find her. They're
asking if she’s been fired or if they should wait for her to return.”
“Are you talking about my stepmother?”
“Who else would | be referring to? Who could be so shameless as to break their promise so quickly, after begging
so desperately before?”
Cherry was upset on my behalf, but | felt nothing about It. After all, | had no expectations when it cto
