Chapter 306

Inside the police station’s dark and cramped interrogation room, two stern–looking police officers sat

across from

Corinne. One of them asked sharply, “Are you going to confess or not?”

Corinne sat demurely behind the small table, but her words remained very firm. “What’s there to

confess when I’m not guilty of anything?”

The stern–faced officer frowned unhappily when he saw her being so obstinate, so he said to her,

“Aren’t you aware that there’s room for more leniency if you cooperate? I’ve been a police officer for

many years, and I’ve seen many suspects who are just as stubborn as you are. But no matter how

stubborn they are, they all regret it once the sentence is handed to them! A young girl like you shouldn’t

have engaged in such reprehensible behavior, and it’s even more appalling that you don’t have a single

ounce of regret for doing something illegal and harming other people. Your parents would disown you if

they found out what you did!”

Corinne said, “Have you ever heard the saying that those who are determined to condemn a person

will always be able to find an excuse to do so? In all my years alive, I’ve seen few police officers who

are as rash as you! You hardly give the impression of being someone who graduated from the police

academy. Do you always handle a case so sloppily? Your

superiors would deduct your wages if they find out that this is how you handle cases!”

The policeman’s face turned red, and he was stunned

speechless. “You! Y–Y–Y…Y–You…‘

The other police officer coughed heavily and said, “This is an interrogation room, Corinne. It’s one of

the most serious places you’ll ever find yourself in. You’re not supposed to be making snide remarks

here!”

Corinne nodded. “Sure. Then I have the right to remain silent. If you have any questions, you can direct

them to my lawyer. He’ll be here soon.”

Another police officer was also annoyed by her recalcitrant attitude. “Sigh, Corinne…”

All of a sudden, someone knocked on the door of the

interrogation room, and another police officer came in to call one of the officers in charge of the

interrogation. After a while, the officer came back again, spoke to his colleague, and explained a new

situation in the case. His colleague. immediately had a frustrated expression after hearing that.

“Why are there new witnesses all of a sudden?”

“My thoughts exactly. Why would such a simple case have so many witnesses?”

“Mister Lucas and his sister are still waiting for the results of Corinne’s interrogation! I thought we could

solve it quickly by today, but this new situation throws a spanner in the works!”

“Well, let’s just bring her there for now!”

One of them then turned to Corinne and said, “Your lawyer’s here. We’re bringing you to see him now.”

The officer then came over and unlocked the handcuffs that were cuffing her to the small table in the

interrogation room.

She got up obediently, followed the two police officers out, and went to a much larger room where

outsiders could visit detained suspects. In addition to her lawyer Gabriel, there were also Lucas, Sunny,

Anya, and Rosie in the room. They were all waiting to see the outcome of her final interrogation.

Corinne glanced at everyone and subconsciously looked around.

No one else was in that room except for those five people.

She frowned and then chastised herself, ‘Who am I kidding? He doesn’t care about me anymore. But

it’s not like I need him to show concern for me anyway. I just think it’s ironic.‘

Lucas sat in a relaxed manner on a chair inside the visiting room. He had a dignified look, and there

was a hint of coldness as he looked at Corinne entering the room in handcuffs. He then turned to

Corinne’s lawyer, Gabriel, and asked with a smile, “Mister Gabriel, everyone in this city holds you in

high prestige, yet you’re helping to exonerate a villain who hired someone to commit crimes. Aren’t you

concerned that this might affect the reputation you’ve built over the years?“
