"You're a cop, not a bandit!"
"You can't pass judgment without solid evidence!"
And let's not et, that girl is Yuri's daughter.
Would they even survive if they crossed him?
The young officer's eyes blazed with fury: "You're just scared of crossing the Lte family!"
With those harsh words, he stormed off.
Brittany, overhearing the argument, felt nothing but exhaustion.
The police had no substantial evidence, and Yuri, with his lawyer in tow, marched straight to the police station after seventy-two
hours had elapsed.
Brittany was taken back to the Lte Manor.
The police said she needed to be available for the investigation and couldn't leave Craneville for the tbeing.

Brittany agreed.
Back at Lte Manor, she rushed to the bathroom for a hot shower and slept soundly for the first tin days.
She had spent three whole days at the station—eating and drinking weren't issues, but her sleep there had been far from restful.
Back in the Lte household, it took her a full day and night of sleep to reset her haywire biological clock.
When Saskia heard Brittany was back, she arrived, albeit belatedly.
"Why are you here?"
Yuri was puzzled; Saskia and Brittany had always had a somewhat distant relationship. Whye back at such a critical moment?
"l was worried about Bri, cto check on her."
Yuri's scrutinizing gaze made Saskia's skin crawl, making her want to dodge his look.
"She's still asleep. Maybe later," Yuri said, just as Saskia felt she couldn't take the pressure anymore.
"Alright."
Saskia's appearance stirred something in Brittany.
After waking up and freshening up, she descended the stairs.
"Mom."
Daniel, just hfrom school, hurried over: "Mom, when did you wake up?"
He had wanted to see Brittany since she got back but was stopped by Yuri.
His mind had been on Brittany all day.
Brittany crouched down: "Just woke up."
Daniel hugged her neck, nuzzling into her embrace: "Mom, | missed you. Can | tell you a story tonight?"
Brittany couldn't help but smile, pinching his sweaty cheek.
"Did you play sports this afternoon?"
"Yep, golf."
Yuri had chosen the best school in Craneville for Daniel, aiming to cultivate a well-rounded elite, excelling in academics, sports,
arts, and more.

"Then you better go take a shower; dinner will be ready soon."
Daniel planted a kiss on Brittany's cheek and dashed off.
Saskia, witnessing this, felt a pang of jealousy.
It was just a son; what was there to show off?
She had one too!
Brittany greeted Saskia and poured herself a glass of warm water.
"Bri, I've heard about what happened. Are you okay?" Saskia asked, concern in her eyes. "The whole thing blew up big. Dad had to
pull sstrings to keep the news quiet. You can't let something like this happen again."
Brittany paused in her sip, puzzled. She hadn't done anything, yet according to Saskia, it was all her fault?
"I didn't do anything."
Brittany faced Saskia. "There's something wrong with what you're saying."
Saskia's smile froze, and after a long moment, she stammered, "Bri, | didn't mean it like that—"
