Divorce Me Before Death Takes Me, CEO

Chapter 416

Audrey’s POV

I hadn’t even opened the car door when Rebecca, Thalia, and Rachel emerged from the police station and immediately separated. Rebecca and her daughter headed toward a distant gazebo in the park, while Rachel walked purposefully toward the underground parking garage.

“Damn, Astrid slapped her thigh. “We can’t see which one’s crying harder from here. Is our bet still on?”

I shrugged. “Let’s just forget it.”

“No way,” Astrid grinned. “You follow Rachel and snap a pic. I’ll do the same with Rebecca and Thalia. Then we’ll compare and see who wins.”

I couldn’t help smiling at her persistence. “You’re ridiculous.”

“Fine,” I said, reaching for the door handle. “I’ll find Rachel.”

I stepped out and gave Astrid one last look before heading toward the underground garage where Rachel had disappeared.

Astrid’s POV

After watching Audrey leave, I turned my attention to Rebecca and Thalia. They’d reached the park, Rebecca leaning dramatically on her daughter’s arm. A female officer hovered nearby, but Rebecca waved her off.

“Thank you, officer, but we don’t need any more help,” Rebecca said. “My daughter’s got me. We just need some space.”

The officer nodded and left. I ducked behind some parked cars and slipped into the park, keeping my distance. Perfect – I’d sneak a quick photo and settle our bet.
