The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 217

Chapter 217

Robin was taken to the police station?

Celine’s face turned pale. Without a second thought, she hung up and turned to Hailey. “Hailey, I must go to the police station

right now.”

“I’m coming with you,” Hailey said immediately.

At the police station, Celine and Hailey found Robin sitting in the holding area. Celine rushed to her and grabbed Robin’s cold hands. “Robin, what happened? Why are you here?”

Robin’s face was pale, her expression hollow and dazed. “Celine, this is all because of that big star, Nikki Barnett.”

Robin’s voice quivered as she explained. “Ms. Barnett came to ELLA for the magazine shoot. She needed to use a wire harness for

one of the shots, but someone had cut the wire ahead of time.

“She fell during the shoot, and afterward, she accused me. She claimed she saw me cut the wire with her own eyes. That’s why the police brought me in.

“Celine, you have to believe me! I didn’t do it. I would never do something like that. I don’t even know Ms. Barnett personally! Why would I harm her?”

Robin’s bewilderment was palpable. Nikki’s sudden accusation had turned her into a suspect for attempted murder.

Hailey, standing nearby, looked equally stunned. “Who cut the wire, then? If Ms. Smith didn’t do it, why would Nikki accuse her? As far as I know, Nikki has no reason to hold a grudge against her.”

Robin shook her head, confusion etched into her features. “Exactly! I’ve never done anything to her. Why would she say it was me? This doesn’t make any sense.”

Celine’s clear, steady gaze darkened momentarily, a flicker of something sharp passing through her eyes.

She gently reassured Robin, “Don’t worry, Robin. I’ll go talk to Nikki right now. If she changes her statement, the police will have to let you go.”

Celine and Hailey left the station without delay, heading straight for the hospital.

During the drive, Hailey broke the silence, her voice filled with confusion. “Celine, why do you think Nikki would frame Ms. Smith for this? Ms. Smith is your best friend.”
