My mind buzzed, and my legs suddenly felt weak.

What did he just say?

"closed?" I was utterly shocked, and my voice rose involuntarily. "Why is the case closed? Why wasn't I informed? There's clear evidence and witnesses, plaintiff, haven't withdrawn the charges! How can you close the case?" My voice was so loud that everyone in the police station beard it.

Lyla and Antoine, of course, were no exception.

*You people are committing a crime by accepting bribes and letting a murderer walk freel" My voice grew louder and louder until all that remained in the station was my furious shouting

The police chief's face tuned a shade of darkanger, his eyes fixed on me with an intense, menacing stare, like he wanted to devour me whole.

Under normal circumstances, I might have backed down. But right now, my heart was filled with nothing but rage. I didn't know the meaning of fear anymore. With eyes burning. I lunged at the chief, reaching for his collar to demand answers

Before I could grab hold of him, two hands-one large, one smaller reached out from behind me, gripping my arms tightly and pulling me back

One of the hands clamped down on my mouth to stifle my outbursts, while Antoine apologized profusely. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. She's just not in a good state right now. We'll take her outside."

I struggled, but Antoine held firm. Lyla, on the other hand, had let go. But before I could break free, Antoine wrapped an arm tightly around my waist, dragging me out of the police station. Meanwhile, Lyla stayed behind with a forced smile on her face. practically

Just as I was about to make one last attempt to fight back, I heard Antoine's stern whisper in my ear. "If you keep making a scene, you'll get yourself locked up. Then who will seek justice for your grandmother?"

At those words, I instantly stopped resisting. Slumping in Antoine's arms like a ragdoll, I let him d

After all the preparation, Leah had still slipped through my fingers. It would be a lie to say I wasn't furious. But what could I do? The Grayson family was like an immovable mountain-how could I possibly shake them?

I didn't know how much time passed. It could've been a moment or an eternity. Eventually, Lyla emerged, her face full of anger, clutching the medical records nightly in her hand. Her footsteps pounded on the pavement, broadcasting her unsettled mood

I turned my head, my face blank as I watched her. When my gaze landed on the medical records, a bitter laugh bubbled up inside me. No wonder Ethan had gotten Bold of Leah's inedical records so easily-he knew from the start that the documents were worthless. Even if he handed them to me, it wouldn't change anything. Leah would still be untouchable.

What aclever game

Grayson family played. They managed to help both sides-helping me while also protecting Leah, ensuring they benefitted from both

both ends.

I suddenly felt a wave of disgust. In a swift movement, lunged forward and snatched the medical records from Lyla's hands. Getting my teeth, I tore them into shreds Tossed the fragments into the air with force.

Ast watched the pieces of paper flatter down like snowflakes, I let out a hollow laugh and walked away without looking back

My sudden action startled both Lyla and Antoine. Seeing me leave, they quickly caught up to me.

Lylaclung to my arm, her eyes red and her voice choking "Eve, are you okay? Please talk to us. Cry If you need to; just don't keep it all bottled up

"Eve, don't worry. We'll figure something out," Antoine added, trying to reassure me.

But inside, I felt nothing but emptiness.
