Veronica got hauled into an interrogation room and grilled for over twenty minutes.
When the cops came out of the room, Collin went over to chat with them, then returned to spill the beans to Theo and Marissa *The cops got to the bottom of things Todayâs mess was cooked up by Ms Blanchet and the middle aged dude named Morganâ
âThey found evidence of their communication on their devices. They planned to lure Ms Mendoza to the mall, then knock her out and drag her to a hotel, trying to frame her for prostitution âMs Mendoza accidentally dropped her phone and wallet, which were picked up by a woman dressed like her Morgan mistook the woman for Ms Mendoza, put a sack over her head, knocked her out, and took her to the hotel.
âThe silver lining is that things didnât escalate in the hotel. The guy didnât get what he wanted, and the woman who got nabbed by mistake wasnât a prostitute. However. Ms Blanchet screwed up, and sheâll be in the slammer for 15 daysâ
This floored Manssa, and she finally passed out Theo instantly caught his grandma and barked at Collin, âCall an ambulance!â
âRight away, Mr Blanchet!â Collin immediately whipped out his phone to dial emergency services.
Ellinor calmly said, âNo need, Iâve already called an ambulance. It should be here any minute. As soon as she finished her sentence, paramedics rushed in with a stretcher, put the unconscious Marissa on it, gave her an oxygen mask, and quickly loaded her onto the ambulance headed for the hospital.
Following Theoâs orders, Collin left with the ambulance to accompany Marissa Soon, the police station returned to its usual calm. Theo looked at Ellinor, who had called an ambulance in advance. Did this girl see it all coming?
Ellinor felt Theoâs scrutinizing gaze but didnât care. She walked up to the police and politely asked, âMay I go in and have a word with Veronica?â
The cop frowned in confusion, âShe tried to harm you, and you want to talk to her?â
Ellinor smiled, âWeâre relatives, after all. Weâll have to face each other eventually. Might as well clear the air nowâ
âYouâre very forgiving!â The cop was pleased with Ellinorâs attitude and nodded in agreement, âOkay, you can go in, but donât take too longâ
*Thank youâ
Inside the interrogation room.
Upon seeing Ellinor walk in, Veronica immediately jumped up in anger and yelled, âEllinor! You vile thing! You caused all this trouble! This is all your dirty game!â
A spoiled rich girl, whoâs never been questioned before, Veronica was now extremely emotional. But because she initially refused to cooperate with the police, her hands were tied to the table. Sheâd probably be lunging at Ellinor right now if they werenât!
Ellinor calmly sat across from her, fussing with her hair, finding Veronicaâs rant annoying She calmly said, âNo, this was your plan. I merely took advantage of it.â
