Chapter Reporting Her Sister
Florence simply stared at Fanny and remained silent when she heard her words.
Left with no choice, Fanny had to retrieve her handphone and call Christopher.
Fortunately, she had already sorted things out with Christopher prior to her arrival, so as long as she spoke cautiously now, Florence shouldn’t be able to figure it out. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
After a few seconds, the call was answered, and Christopher’s gentle and composed voice came through.
“Fanny?”
The way she was addressed sent shivers down Fanny’s spine. With Florence’s unwavering gaze fixed on her, she swiftly activated the speakerphone.
“Chris, it’s me.” Fanny adjusted her tone before responding to Christopher, but she kept stealing a glance toward Florence.
“So, do you want to return to Riverdon?” Christopher smoothly transitioned to the main topic, his voice retaining its gentle demeanor.
Fanny was grateful that she had forewarned Christopher that Florence might ask her to reach out. She was relieved that Christopher was adept at playing along. Otherwise, she would need to learn how to steer the conversation.
“Yes. I want to return to Riverdon today. Could you pick me up in Northland?” Fanny’s voice remained composed, despite the racing of her heart.
Although this plan deviated slightly from her prior conversation with Christopher, Fanny hoped he wouldn’t raise any objections. With today being the final day of the three–day deadline he had given her, she felt a sense of urgency.
“Sure, Christopher agreed readily, offering a solution. “I am busy this morning, so how about I personally come to Northland to pick you up in the afternoon?”
Fanny glanced at Florence, who calmly nodded. Only then Fanny agreed to Christopher’s proposal.
When she ended the call, Fanny let out a sigh of relief, feeling her entire body relax.
“Miss Shelton, since Christopher can only come in the afternoon, should I wait here?” Fanny’s voice trailed off, her demeanor tentative and anxious.
“Settle your affairs with Kaydron,” Florence replied casually, her gaze flickering toward Fanny

before moving away.
Fanny nodded quickly. “Yes, Miss Shelton.”
Her eagerness to implicate Angela fueled her determination, overshadowing any aversion she felt toward dealing with Kaydron.
Even if it meant encountering the distasteful Kaydron, she could suppress her repulsion.
As Fanny left the club, she noticed she was alone, with no sight of Jane or Harley. Florence’s men didn’t send her off. In a quiet spot, she got rid of the stack of photos with a lighter to erase any evidence, then hailed a cab to go straight to the police station.
Fanny knew the station from bailing out Kaydron before and had no trouble finding her way. Despite Kaydron being a suspect, his charges weren’t confirmed yet, so visitation was allowed. Before seeing him. Fanny said she wanted to bail him out.
It was during Fanny’s bail process for Kaydron that the police decided to question her.
Fanny acted surprised, saying, “Mr. Reed is involved in drug activities? Are you sure?” She was careful not to let on any prior knowledge, fearing it might raise suspicion. Hearing about drug deals from Florence, she knew it was important to seem shocked to avoid suspicion.
Her eyes showed she had ulterior motives, driven by her desire to harm Angela. The officers. looked confused by Fanny’s sudden change in behavior. The lead officer asked, “What do you. think?”
Fanny hesitated, then said, “I think I heard Mr. Reed talking to someone about these activities, but I can’t be sure.”
“Who is this person he’s contacting?” the officer asked, seeking more details.
Fanny hesitated again, appearing conflicted before finally admitting, “It’s my sister.” She quickly added, “I’m not so sure about it. I need to clarify with Mr. Reed.”
The officer meticulously documented Fanny’s statement, offering reassurance, “Rest assured, we’ll look into the information you’ve provided. Even if it’s not entirely accurate, there won’t be any repercussions.”
Acknowledging the officer’s request, Fanny nodded in understanding. “Could you also ask him about the drug issue when you visit?” the officer requested; appreciating Fanny’s cooperation.
Having already questioned Kaydron, who denied knowledge of the drugs found in his car, the police deemed him uncooperative. They hoped Fanny could persuade Kaydron to confess or identify anyone involved, which would be beneficial to the investigation.

Fanny felt relieved upon hearing this. It seemed the police were receptive to her assistance. “1 can ask, but I’m unsure if he’ll cooperate. I also don’t know the extent of his connection with Angela. Fanny replied softly, seeking to distance herself from any implication.
Intrigued, the note–taker interjected, “Who is Angela?”
Fanny quickly responded, “She’s my sister,” prompting the note–taker to record the information and signal for the conversation to continue.
Observing Fanny’s cautious demeanor, the questioning officer reassured her, “Don’t worry. Just do your best to ask.” As Fanny was about to agree, the note–taker suddenly paused, his expression changing as he scribbled something down. He then whispered to his colleague, sparking a brief exchange between them.
Addressing Fanny, one of the officers stated, “We need to verify something, Miss Fanny. Please wait a moment.”
Fanny was anxious as she watched them both get up to leave.
She had merely uttered Angela’s name. Why were they departing?
“Alright.” Despite her jitters, Fanny could only offer a nod as she watched them exit the room.
Once they were gone, one of them inquired, “Is it true?”
It seems so. Mr. Holland and another individual have both referenced it. Angela was Kaydron’s target.”
At this disclosure, they exchanged another glance, both wearing expressions of disbelief.
“Perhaps there’s more to this than meets the eye?” After a moment of contemplation, one of them proposed, “Or maybe there’s been a misunderstanding?”
The other person’s mouth twitched slightly before responding, “Let’s have the go directly to see Kaydron and hear what she and Kaydron have to say.”
