Chapter 220 Keep Your People in Check

They were still discussing the cupcake when the police barged in.

Lynette immediately stood up warily.

“What’s going on?” Josh asked as he stood up as well.

“A Miss Palmer has filed a police report accusing all of you of physical assault. Please come with us to the police station to assist in the investigations,” the police officer in charge said to Josh.

“I did it. It has nothing to do with them. You can just take me to the police station,” Lynette announced.

Abigail thought to herself, Shouldn’t she try to make herself seem more vulnerable? She looks so… proud of herself. They’ll probably charge her for it.

“Miss Palmer said it was all three of you, so you’re all going to have to come with us!” The police officer was adamant.

A police report had been made, so they were just following procedure.

Abigail knew full well that Joan was an expert at scheming. Since the police officers were this firm about it, the situation was probably not as simple as they assumed it was.

“Alright. We’ll come with you,” Abigail said agreeably.

Josh had to do as Abigail said.

By the time they got to the police station, Abigail spotted Joan, whose face was entirely covered in blood, and realized the severity of the situation.

Who knew how she ended up like that? Alas, the security footage of the entrance of the tea house showed that Lynette had hit her.
