"What's going on?" Josh asked as he stood up as well.
"A Miss Palmer has filed a police report accusing all of you of physical assault. Please cwith us to the police station to assist in the investigations," the police officer in charge said to Josh.
"I did it. It has nothing to do with them. You can just taketo the police station," Lynette announced.
Abigail thought to herself, Shouldn't she try to make herself seem more vulnerable? She looks so... proud of herself. They'll probably charge her for it.
"Miss Palmer said it was all three of you, so you're all going to have to cwith us!" The police officer was adamant.
A police report had been made, so they were just following procedure.
Abigail knew full well that Joan was an expert at scheming. Since the police officers were this firm about it, the situation was probably not as simple as they assumed it was.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Alright. We'll cwith you," Abigail said agreeably.
Josh had to do as Abigail said.
By the tthey got to the police station, Abigail spotted Joan, whose face was entirely covered in blood, and realized the severity of the situation.
Who knew how she ended up like that? Alas, the security footage of the entrance of the tea house showed that Lynette had hit her.
"They all ganged up on me... You have to serve justice on my behalf, officer!" Joan wailed pitifully at the sight of them.
Seething with rage, Lynette raised her fist again. "What kind of conniving b*tch are you? Did you smash your face on purpose just so you could frus?" "This is the police station! Are you trying to start a fight here?" The police officer who was taking down their information looked up from the computer and growled angrily. Abigail held Lynette, whose chest was heaving. "You're making it worse. Now it really seems like we're in the wrong." Lynette was red with fury. Gritting her teeth, she glared at Joan, who was covering meekly like a terrified victim, and muttered, "I figured out why you couldn't get rid of her now. She's an expert at punching bel her for the rest of her life..." "Are you ignoring my existence?" The police officer glared at Lynette.
"Josh!" Furious, Lynette looked at Josh.
"Keep quiet," Josh said with a frown.
They gave their statements alone. The police officer asked a lot of questions. Twent by in a flash.
When it was almost 8.00PM, Sean showed 1. up.
As soon as he entered the police station, he looked at Abigail.
Abigail didn't notice his presence until Josh called out, "Are you here for Miss Palmer, Mr. Graham?" The moment Joan spotted Sean, she sobbed aggrievedly, "Sean..." "Shut up," Sean barked at Joan.
Humiliated, Joan felt even more hurt. She bit her lip and looked like a pitiful little lamb.
When Sean saw Abigail's gaze falling on him, all of his negative emotions seemed to melt away- all because her attention was on him.
He walked over to Abigail. His lips parted, and he apologized, "I'm sorry I'm late. It's caused you a lot of trouble." "You better keep her in check. Don't let her show up in front ofagain. Also, she said she's the reason why your grandmother caused a scene at my family home. You should be keeping a closer eye on your Sean's apology only made Abigail even more pissed.
It meant that he did consider Joan one of his people.
I'll keep her in check," Sean said.
Soon, Cameron cin. Sean spoke to the police, and in the end, the case was settled privately.
After leaving the police station, Sean said to Abigail, "Letbuy you guys a meal as a token of my apology." "As if I'd want a b*stard like you paying for my food. I'd vomit the food right back out!" Lynette rolled her eyes and scoffed while hiding behind Josh.
Sean eyed her icily. "I haven't settled the score with you for hurting one of my people. You better watch your mouth, or someone might sew it up someday." "Is that a threat?" Josh retorted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe atmosphere grew tense.
Joan was smirking smugly behind Cameron.
"That's right. What about it? I can easily see to it that a person who doesn't watch their tongue never speaks again." Sean stared at Josh with an icy smile.
Lynette ran over to Abigail and clutched her arm. "Give him a talking to. If he sews my mouth up, you won't have anyone to keep you company."
Abigail stared coldly at Sean. "Just keep your people in check, Mr.
Graham. Lynette won't be sayingn anything bad about you. Besides, everything she said is true. If it weren't for you, would Joan have the nerve to cto Ouisford to mess with me?"
Sean's expression immediately brightened. "Yes, you're absolutely right, Miss Quinn. In that case, coul could you dothe honor of lettingmake it up to you by treating you to a meal?" "No need. I don't need a meal from you," Abigail declined coolly.
"I think you do. Miss Palmer call this way just to cause trouble for you. She should give you a proper m Sean stared per apology right at Abigail.
His tone left no room for refusal.
Joan had been giddy with smugness the whole time, but her expression fell the moment she heard what Sean said. X
