Chapter 75

Seraphina gave a nod, then turned to look at Balch.

Balch furrowed his brow at her, his eyes filled with worry.

“I’m good.” Seraphina said in a forced casual tone, then asked, “What are you doing here?”

“I was talking business with some friends at a bar nearby Balch replied, “I was about to leave when I spotted you standing here.”

Hearing this, Seraphina laughed, “it must be fate then!”

Balch looked at her, “How much have you had to drink?”

Balch just looked at her. Seraphina met his gaze for a moment, then leaned forward onto his shoulder.

As Seraphina was walking out, Abbot was coming out of the room next door. Seraphina thanked him again.

Abbot was polite with her before quickly leaving the police station.

Balch then came forward, “Let’s go. I’ll take you home.”
