Chapter 870

It was impossible to get the police to let go of Edmund. But in such a situation, Larissa could not directly reject Wendy. She could only pretend. “I can’t decide on this. We’ll have to see how the police deal with this. He did kidnap you after all”

Wendy’s shoulders slumped with disappointment. After a long while, she asked Larissa, “Then can you take me to see him? I have something I want to ask him still.”

Larissa did not want to let Wendy meet Edmund, If the man leaked anything she did not know how to continue this nice lie she had going for now. “I’ll ask. I guess.” She fudged it over. All she needed to tell Wendy later was “no.”
