“Hey! What are you guys doing?” someone shouted angrily from the side.

The pressure on her arms and legs was gone, and she could breathe again.

Rayna gasped desperately for air as the person removed the pillow from her face and patted her on the cheek.

“Are you okay, Ms. Garland?”

After taking a moment to regain her composure, Rayna slowly opened her eyes.

The person calling out to her worriedly was the woman who had greeted her the other day.

“What happened? Who are you?”

“Someone wanted you dead, so they planted their men in the police station. After finding out about your arrest, Mr. Hamilton got me in here so I could look after you,” the woman replied softly.

Jefferson?

Rayna lowered her head and saw eight women lying on the ground.

They had been beaten up so badly that were barely breathing.

Rayna broke into an icy-cold sneer when she looked up and saw the broken surveillance camera. “Oh, so this is why I couldn’t request a solitary cell.”

“Are you currently experiencing any sort of discomfort, Ms. Garland?”

Rayna shook her head. “No, and it’s all thanks to you. What’s your name?”

“Emerald Clocklore.”

“Clocklore? Are you and Ringo related?” Rayna exclaimed.

“No, we’re not.”

After asking Emerald a few questions, Rayna finally understood what was going on.

Jefferson had sent Emerald over to Norwal City after recognizing Rayna. She had been working for Faymon Group in a lower-level position.
