Chapter 770

Detention Center.

Officer Baldwin swung open the door for Nathalie. "You're free to go. The charges have been dropped."

This was nowhere near the ending Nathalie had envisioned. Her meticulous scheming had evaporated into thin air.

Nathalie lost it right there. She blocked Officer Baldwin, demanding justice. "Officer Baldwin, I beat Cameron up so badly he's practically out of commission. How can I walk away without any charges? Isn't this making a mockery of the law?"

Officer Baldwin let out a weary sigh, feeling utterly exasperated. "Ashley, if it were anyone else, they'd be looking at at least six months behind bars for this kind of ruckus. But you got incredibly lucky. The victim decided to drop the charges. Just get out of here, okay?"

Nathalie was seething, her face flushed with anger, almost ready to curse Cameron's entire family tree. "Who needs his forgiveness? I don't care about it. This just means I'll have to go back and knock some sense into him again!"

Officer Baldwin rubbed his temples, clearly worn out. "Ashley, word on the street is you've got a bit of a mental health history, which technically means you're not held accountable for the assault. So don't think you can waltz back in by hitting him again."

Nathalie was blindsided. "I have a mental health history? Who came up with that?"

"Number 13."
