No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 672

I looked up and saw an elderly couple, hand in hand, walking into the station with a mix of anxiety and unease.

As the officer assigned to greet us was about to rise, I beat him to it and stood up. "Sir, Ma'am."

This couple was Judie Sears' parents. They both turned to me, and after a brief moment of astonishment, Lily blurted out, "Judie..." "She's not Judie," Judie's father, Joseph Sears, quickly corrected his wife.

The flicker of joy on Lily's face immediately collapsed into heartbreaking sadness.

I quickly approached them, "Sir, Ma'am, what seems to be the problem? What brings you here today?"

I had jumped ahead of the officer's script, and now he came over as well. "If you two are here to file a report, please come with me."

Joseph and Lily remained still, already beginning to share their troubles with the officer. "For the past few days, someone's been vandalizing our door, threatening us with harm if we don't comply with their demands." Hearing this sent a shiver down my spine, and I saw the officer frown in concern. "Do you know who this person is? Any idea why they're targeting you?"
