CHAPTER 329

If Janet did not get detained for a few days, Emily was not going to stop.The commanding officer

observed the way Megan was dressed. They look like a wealthy family. I can’t get on their bad side.

Letting out a couple of coughs, he turned to Janet and said, “Hey, you. Give her a sincere apology

when you get back, okay?”“An apology?” It sounded like a joke to Janet. Smirking, she answered,

“There’s no way I’ll apologize.” If she apologized to Emily, would that make up for the harm done to

Abby?“You… You have no remorse!” Emily pointed at her with a look of despair as if she was on the

verge of collapsing. An apology from Janet? She couldn’t care less about that. She wanted Janet to be

locked up for a few days.There was a subtle look of resignation on the commanding officer’s face when

he saw how the family could not reach an agreement.Just then, a man walked into the station. Content © 2024.

Standing up tall and straight, he had a healthy glow to his skin, sharp-looking eyebrows on his face

along with a high nose, tight lips, and a pair of black eyes. There was also a presence about him that

stood out from the rest. He walked over to the girl with a hostile demeanor who was sitting on the stool.

“Are you okay, Janet?”Looking up at him, she nodded. “I’m fine.”Everyone there was captivated by the

man. Emily gaped at him, completely forgetting about the wound on her face. Isn’t he the internet

sensation, Walter Lynn? How does he know Janet? They even look like they know each other quite

well.“Captain, what happened here?” Walter looked at the man in front of him.The commanding officer

did not want to offend the big star either. He said lightheartedly, “Mr. Lynn, the person who made the

report was your friend’s family.”“Family?” He followed the direction in which the commanding officer

was pointing and saw Emily with her swollen face.Out of embarrassment, Emily tried to hide her face.

At the same time, Janet looked at her phone and saw that there was not much time left, so she got up

and prepared to leave. To her surprise, Emily pulled her back just as she turned around. “Are you still

thinking of running away now that we’re at the police station?” She was not going to let Janet walk

away unscathed. It was unacceptable to her!Janet’s eyebrows shot up, making her look menacing and

aloof. “We may have a family dispute between us, but what reason did you have to lock up another

student in the library?” She let out a wicked smile. “That’s illegal imprisonment. Did you know

that?”“You… You…” Emily stepped back in fear. She’s bringing up the law in front of me. What does

she know about the law? Her original plan was to have Janet detained at the police station for a few

days, but she did not think that Janet would be this wicked to bring up the law while they were at the

police station. If the issue got out of hand, it would not be enough even if both of them took

responsibility for it.Currently, Janet was only digging them into a deeper hole without a single regard for

their reputation. Emily, on the other hand, could not afford that. She was going to Yobril soon and was

not going to let a small matter like this ruin her future.“Mom, Miss Lilian. How about we just forget it and

go?” With a look of embarrassment, she pulled on Lilian and Megan’s arms.“Okay.” Megan gave a

slight nod, then turned her gaze to Janet.Lilian also nodded along and did not refute. Meanwhile,

Walter felt a heavy weight lift off his chest when Emily chose to let it go.The moment Emily looked up,

she saw Walter looking at her with a vague expression on his face. Feelings of delight filled her up in

an instant. Wow. Being the exceptional person that I am, I can attract the people in Janet’s life. Even

with my swollen face, I’m still more attractive than Janet.Shying away with her head lowered, Emily

took Megan’s hand and walked out of the police station with poise. It was not worth ruining her future

over such a small matter.Back at the Jackson Residence, Emily was sobbing with her head down as

though she had been terribly wronged. “Don’t cry, Emily.” Rebecca wiped her tears away with a piece

of tissue while Chloe tended to the swelling on her face.
