Chapter 409

When they got to the 17th floor, the cops just happened to show up too.

Aaron's legs were like jelly, and he was as meek as anything, humbly and proactively spilling the beans to the cops about the whole hitting incident. He didn't dare to be sassy anymore, straight up confessed that he lost his cool after hearing some outsiders dissing Sophia, feeling like she wasn't living up to her duties as a daughter-in-law. In a fit of anger, he wanted to 'educate' her but seriously chose the wrong way to do it. He sincerely fessed up to the police and Sophia, apologizing for his mistake, with a super remorseful attitude. Faced with the police's stern talking-to, he kept on admitting his wrong and saying sorry, truly regretting his actions.

The cops first checked out the damage on Sophia's face, which was on the minor

side.

Following protocol, they tried to mediate, asking Sophia if she was down for

settling it that way.

"We're not going for mediation!"

Brandon spoke up, cool as a cucumber.

Sophia gave him a glance, stayed quiet for a moment, then looked up and softly said, "I accept the mediation."

Brandon whipped his head around to look at Sophia.

Aaron was also staring at her, disbelief written all over his face.
