The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 292

After hearing the resignation in the police officer’s voice, Rosie, having first–hand experience of Corinne’s deviousness, started shouting angrily, “That d*mn woman isn’t only evil but cunning as well!”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

“Rosie, you shouldn’t jump to conclusions. What if it really wasn’t her?”

Rosie was stunned. She looked at Sunny incredulously. “Are you serious, Sunny?”

She might not be brave enough to talk back to Jeremy, but she was definitely not afraid to do the same to Sunny.

“Sunny, this is Anya we’re talking about! How can you side with an outsider and not your sister?”

A troubled frown appeared on Sunny’s face. “Rosie, you shouldn’t make such baseless accusations about me. I’ll always stand by my sister no matter what. It’s just that…I don’t think Corinne is the kind of person who’d do such a thing. Besides, have you forgotten the many times you’ve wronged her?”

Rosie opened and closed her mouth like a fish gasping for air, having been rendered speechless. After all, the things she did before Anya came back were indeed atrocious, but she justified it by telling herself she only did it for Anya’s sake. She only wanted to get rid of Corinne so Anya could return to Jeremy’s side as his rightful wife. It was unfortunate that her plan never succeeded, not even once. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Rosie did not want to waste her breath on the foolish Sunny, so she turned to her best friend and complained, “Anya, all your love has been wasted on Sunny. That ungrateful kid cares more about Corinne than you!”

Anya snapped out of her thoughts when she suddenly heard Rosie call out her name. She smiled gently and said, “Oh, nonsense. Sunny is a good kid. I know him. He just sees the good in everyone, that’s all. In fact, I’m just like him.”

Sunny nodded in agreement.

Rosie theatrically put her hand to her forehead and thought, Oh my god, why aren’t they panicking? The two of them are too kind and innocent for this world. I won’t be surprised if one day, they decided to invite Corinne to their house so they could all be good friends. Well, that’s not going to happen on my watch!‘

Hell would freeze over before Rosie was going to let Corinne walk free from her crime. “Officer, do you or do you not have enough evidence to convict Corinne?” she asked.

The police officer shook his head regretfully. “No, we don’t have enough evidence yet. Unless there’s surveillance footage or someone turns up with pictures of Corinne meeting with the perpetrator. However, generally speaking, those who want to carry out a crime won’t choose to meet in public places or places with surveillance cameras. Therefore, the chances of them being photographed by other people are even lower. Simply put, this kind of evidence would be very hard to come by.”

The police officer’s answer made Rosie even more anxious. She vehemently wished she could throw Corinne into jail there and then.

“Why don’t you take off her handcuffs now that she’s not a suspect anymore?” said Jeremy finally. There was an underlying current of anger in his quiet voice.

The police officer started to break out in cold sweat. He looked hesitantly at Jeremy and said, “Well, Mister Jeremy…”
