Although she was a bit scared of Connor, Flora could still call Henrik for backup. Kruz, on the other hand, wasn’t so fortunate.
The officer furrowed his brows when he heard Flora, turning around and looking at her seriously. He assumed she was scared and was about to confess to something she didn't do. "Young lady, I know you’re innocent! This has nothing to do with you. Just keep quiet and don’t be afraid of them. As long as I’m here, they won’t lay a finger on you."
Flora was speechless. So, nobody believed the truth?
She earnestly repeated herself, "Officer, I really did hit them."
Buzz cried out desperately, "Yes! Yes! Officer, it was her, all her! She did it!"
"And you're threatening her!" The officer shot Buzz a fierce glare. "Picking on a young lady because you think she's an easy target, huh!"
He turned back to Flora with a gentle tone, "Young lady, really, don’t be scared. I won’t let them hurt you."
Flora felt utterly helpless. "Uncle, it really was me who hit them..."
Thus, at the police station, there was a rather amusing scene.
A group of battered young men, crying and sniffling like children, accused a young lady of beating them up. The young lady admitted it, but the officer didn’t believe her!
Flora had to keep trying to prove that she really was the one who did it.
She talked until her mouth went dry.
Yet, the officer still didn’t believe her!
"Officer, I really did hit them, believe me..."
"Bro... Brother!"
Kruz's voice trembled with fear.
Flora abruptly stopped talking and mechanically looked toward the door.
A man walked in, bringing a chill with him, his handsome features frosted over.
Flora’s heart skipped a beat. Trouble was here—Connor had found out.
"Bro... Brother!"
Flora hugged him, flashing a sweet smile.
……
At Shallow Bay.
Kruz stood in the middle of the living room, barely daring to breathe, occasionally glancing cautiously at Connor sitting on the couch.
"Bro, I really messed up..."
He shot a pleading look at Flora. Flora, save me...
Flora cleared her throat softly. "Connor, it's not entirely his fault."
Connor held her hand, placing it on his thigh. He hummed in response, his face unreadable.
Kruz was terrified of this silence, bracing himself for the worst. "Bro, just tell me how you want to punish me, and let's get it over with."
"I’ve booked you a ticket. You’re going back to Lone Island tomorrow."
