Chapter 2209
Night of Destiny
âItâs me. I superimposed these photos. Iâm sorry!â âWho asked you to do it? Tell the truth!â âItâs a young
woman. She was wearing a face mask when we met up, so I donât know what she really looks like
either. But⦠But I have her bank account number. You guys will know once you check!â
The man was taken away, and very quickly, the police identified a young woman by the name of
Katrina Sullivan following the bank account. number provided. They also found out she worked in the
same TV station as Josephine. With that, the police dispatched six of its members to seize her.
Alas, the oblivious young woman was still celebrating her victory and was about to invite some
colleagues to hang out when she received a call from the hacker. In the phone call, he asked to meet
up in the garden outside her company for something important.
Katrina got restless, so she rushed to their rendezvous point at once. However, she didnât see the man.
Instead, several cops in casual clothing pinned her on the ground as soon as she appeared.
âAh! Who are you people?! Let me go!â Katrina screamed in panic, thinking she was being kidnapped.
Just then, one of the officers showed their badge to Katrina and said, âWeâre the police. Come with us.â
âW-What are you arresting me for?!â Katrina widened her eyes with incredulity. âWhat crime have I
committed?!â
âDo you really not know?â The young womanâs head went blank. Never had she thought the police
would find her in less than three hours of the photos being posted. Finally, it dawned on her that she
had committed a very serious offense.
Meanwhile, Peter was attending to his vegetable patch, and Josephine was helping him water the
plants when the elderâs phone. rang. âHello?â He answered the call.
âItâs been sorted out, sir. Weâve found the culprit. Itâs Josephineâs colleague, Katrina Sullivan.â âGood,
thatâs settled then. Please issue a statement on the internet as soon as possible.â
âWe will, sir.â At that, Peter ended the call and turned to his dear granddaughter. âTheyâve found the
culprit. Itâs your colleague-Katrina Sullivan.â The answer was well within Josephineâs expectations, and
she snorted. âI knew it!â
Inside the police station, Katrina covered her face, blinded by the suddenly glaring lights. Her makeup
was smudged at this point, and her face was ghastly pale as she gazed fearfully at the interrogators.
âWill I be sentenced for this? How many years will I get?â
âTen years and above if itâs severe.â âWhat?!â Katrina nearly passed out. She closed her eyes as tears
fell like a never-ending waterfall, confessing. âI didnât mean to do it! I was just jealous of Josephine. I
didnât intentionally want to ruin her reputation. I⦠I just acted impulsively.â
âItâs useless to say that now. You better confess. When did you start planning the crime?â âIt wasnât me.
I didnât initiate it. I never intended to harm her. Someone incited me!â âWho is it?â
âTori. Tori Alford, the seven oâclock news anchor at our station. She called me into her office and incited
me, saying that she would recommend me as a news anchor if I ruined Josephine. I was influenced
and committed this crime.â Katrina confessed everything.
She finally realized how wicked Tori was. She is the one jealous of Josephine, yet she incited me to
commit the crime while she achieved her goal by just moving her lips. Now, I am the guilty one, while
Tori is free of any charges.
âCan I please talk to Josephine?â Katrina still wishfully thought she could talk to Josephine, ask for her
forgiveness, and deal with the incident privately. âDo you not get it, Sullivan? Youâve committed a crime.
This is no longer between you two.â
Oh, how Katrina rued the day. Her mind was blank at this point. It was Toriâs incitement and Ivankaâs
suggestion that formed the incident. However, she ended up being the one to pay the price.
