Micah frowned as well. He wasn’t sure what had happened, but he didn’t want Charmaine to get into trouble. “Maybe… we should just return him to the Nelsons?

Charmaine’s voice was calm yet chilling, “If we hand him over to the Nelsons, he’ll never open his eyes again.”

She reassured them, “I’ll go handle this. Please take care of Milo

At the police station.

Charmaine cooperated with the police, answering their questions and completing a brief statement. Once she was done, they let her go.

As she stepped out of the interrogation room, Olympia, who had been waiting outside with a grief–stricken yet malicious expression, suddenly lunged at her. Her eyes, swollen from crying, burned with hatred as she raised her hand high in the air.

“Charmaine, why couldn’t it have been you instead?”

A cold glint flashed through Charmaine’s eyes.

She grabbed Olympia’s wrist and shoved her backward with force.

“Mom!”

Leah, who had been standing beside Olympia, caught a fleeting glimmer in her eyes–one that quickly vanished behind a mask of anger. “How dare you lay hands on Mom?” Leah fumed.

Without hesitation, she lunged at Charmaine, as if intent on avenging Olympia.

However, Charmaine didn’t just stop at defense this time. She caught Leah’s wrist effortlessly, then, with a swift and forceful motion, delivered a slap across her face.

The crisp “smack” echoed through the hall, plunging the room into stunned silence.

Leah clutched her cheek in disbelief. Charmaine had hit her in front of so many people.

The officers quickly stepped in, positioning themselves between them.

Willard, Jonah, and Zayn were busy restraining Olympia while simultaneously steadying Leah, making for a chaotic scene.

Yet, amidst it all, their gazes toward Charmaine were uniform–icy cold, filled with nothing but hatred.

Milo was missing and Leah had just been slapped. Olympia’s glare was seething with pure malice as if she wished she could rip Charmaine apart right then and there.

She turned to the police furiously. “Mr. Isaac! Charmaine is the murderer! She killed my son, and now she’s attacking my daughter! How can you just let her walk free?! Arrest her! Make that b*tch pay for what she’s

done!”

Milo’s disappearance. We cannot arrest someone without cause. As for what just happened…

He paused and turned to Charmaine.

She met his cold, scrutinizing gaze with an unshaken calm. “They attacked first. Since no one was going to stop them, I had to defend myself.”

As she spoke, she casually gestured toward the security camera overhead.

Isaac’s expression grew even darker.

“And besides…”

Charmaine continued, “Even you, Mr. Isaac, just stated there’s no proof tying me to the case. Yet, the Nelsons have been hurling accusations at me, smearing my reputation, and even resorting to threats and violence. Every single officer here is a witness to this. Shouldn’t you be protecting me, the real victim in this situation?”

Charmaine’s bold response left the Nelsons speechless. Willard and Olympia’s faces twisted with rage upon hearing that.

“You disgraceful b*tch! How dare you say that with a straight face?” Willard seethed through clenched teeth.

“Milo is your brother!” His voice was trembling with fury. “You tricked him into searching for that nurse from all those years ago, all because you wanted to punish us! You wanted us to feel guilty, to give you more compensation, didn’t you?!”

Olympia was furious, but the anger was quickly swallowed by a wave of sorrow. Her eyes welled up with tears, turning everything blurry. “The mountain road is full of sharp curves, and it’s so high up! His car tumbled down and was completely crushed, and they still haven’t found him … You have no idea how horrifying the scene was! He was willing to risk his own life for you! How could you be so heartless at times like this, Charmaine?”

Listening to Olympia’s tearful accusations, Charmaine’s expression remained blank.

“I never asked for anything from him. I never asked him to do anything for me.” Her voice was flat, devoid of warmth. “I made it clear long ago to sever ties with you guys.

“You’re the ones who keep coming after me. Why? Do you want to see me fail? To see me miserable without you? And now that things aren’t going the way you imagined, you want to pin a crime on me just to make yourselves feel better?”

At this, Charmaine shot Leah a knowing look. “If you truly want justice for Milo, you should be lo
