gaze contained its unusual indifference as it swept over Melanie. “The police will be here soon to

Melanie gritted her teeth and swallowed the pent–up frustration in her chest.

The police arrived soon after. After questioning Melanie and Viola, they said, “We’ve gathered enough

information. We’ll investigate this matter promptly and take the necessary actions.”

Melanie chuckled, but the chill in her eyes did not dissipate, “Worried? What are you worried about?”

Viola’s hesitant demeanor seemed more like an accusation against Melanie.
