Chapter 974

Whitney frowned as she stepped out of the visitation room, her informant waiting right at the door.

"Ms. Valentine, did you get anything out of her?" He was one of the local PD officers.

Shaking her head, Whitney wasn't surprised that Endora stuck to her story. She would definitely side with Elaine, brainwashed and all.

Suddenly, Whitney asked, "Endora was brought in yesterday, right? Where was she held?"

"Uh, in the detention center, Ms. Valentine... Do you think they've been cooking up stories together?"

"They might've been put in the same cell, which is against the rules! What's going on with your precinct? Or is someone pulling strings behind the scenes?" Whitney was convinced Endora and Elaine had conspired.

But was it a coincidence, or did someone orchestrate their meeting?

The officer shook his head, clueless. "I'm just from the civil department, Ms. Valentine. I don't deal with criminal cases. Our detention center's small. And Elaine, being a witness to a kidnapping case, wasn't considered a suspect. Maybe the detectives didn't see the need to separate them?"
