Married in a Flash Embarking on the Journey to Wealth

After hanging up, Leslie took something out of the fridge and stepped out of the kitchen. Aurella sat before the desk, unmoving like she was deep in thought.

Assuming that she was terrified, he immediately handed the item to her. “Drink it.”

Aurelia started the lee cola before her in shock, especially when she saw the rabbit- shaped ice floating on it. She paused for a moment and said, “The ice…”

“I froze another one last night,” Leslie explained.

Feeling touched, she downed the cola and burped. Then, she chuckled.

Leslie shot her an odd look.

“Did you think those people would scare me witless?” Aurelia asked.

He hesitated and nodded. “Yeah.”

She tapped on her chest. “I was taken aback just now, but I won’t back down. I’m not the one who’s in the wrong here, so I shouldn’t be the one everyone condemns.”

Leslie was shocked by her declaration and looked at her in silence.

She raised her phone with resignation. “Sorry, Mr. Synder, but you will have to come with me to the police station again.”

“Why?” Leslie asked.

“Defamation is a crime. I need to protect my reputation and rights,” she said seriously.

Leslie paused. A moment later, he snapped out of his daze. He stood up and said, “Let’s go.”

Leslie trusted Aurelia without hesitation and was willing to accompany her. Aurelia felt slightly relieved from the fear that overwhelmed her earlier.

They returned to the police station, where they submitted all the evidence from last night’s testimony to the police.

The officer on duty was a woman. After examining the evidence Aurelia provided, her face wrinkled slightly. “You’re very brave,” she said.

“It’s what I should do,” Aurelia said.

Chopin, 340

The female officer furrowed her brows and asked, “Your name is Aurelia?”

Aurelia nodded. “Yes.”

“You were involved in the case where the jewelry was damaged, right?” the officer clarified.

“Yes.” Aurelia felt a little embarrassed by that question.

The female officer glanced at her and then at the file. After a moment of thought, she said, “We’ve already investigated the jewelry case. You should try to remember if there’s anything else you might have overlooked. That way, we can clear your name.”

The female officer was clearly trying to give her a hint.

The sudden moment of relaxation and the officer’s goodwill triggered Aurelia’s memory.

Aurelia recalled something, but she didn’t know how to articulate it at that moment.

Leslie, however, immediately read her expression and asked, “What have you remembered?”

Aurelia concentrated and tried to articulate her thoughts. “The positioning, it’s wrong.”

Leslie guided her to a nearby rest area and asked someone for a piece of paper. “Take your time. There’s no rush.”

Aurelia held the pen, feeling the reassurance of someone by her side. She quickly sketched the scene on the paper. Such drawings were easy for her as a planner. She relied on her memory and marked down the positions of each person.

“I walked from the couch resting area to the shooting area, where I tripped and fell here. If someone wanted to remove the wire immediately, only one person could have done it, “she explained.

With that, Aurelia raised her sketch and pointed to a name written on it.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
