True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 196 Isabella Goes to Jail

Isabella woke up to a racket. She got out of bed, rubbed her aching head, and stumbled downstairs.

At the stairway, she heard Darren's voice. "You must be mistaken. My daughter stays home and wouldn't hurt anyone. She's too timid for such a conspiracy. Joey must be framing her. I'm going to sue her." The police replied, "Mr. Vale, we have witnesses and evidence. Ms. Vale is suspected of instigating an assault that caused serious injury. If you don't hand her over, we'll search the house."

Isabella, terrified, collapsed. 'I've been so careful. How did they find out? Even my calls were from a new number. How do they have evidence?'

Her fall alerted the police. A quick-thinking young officer rushed up, grabbed her wrist, and handcuffed her.

Isabella was stunned, tears streaming down her face. She cried out, "Dad, save me! I didn't do anything. I don't want to go to jail."

Darren tried to intervene, but another officer stopped him. "Mr. Vale, if you interfere, we'll charge you with obstructing justice. We'll take Ms. Vale now. If you believe she's innocent, hire a lawyer." Ignoring Isabella's pleas, the police took her to the car.

Watching the police car drive away, Darren panicked. He called Theodore. "Theodore, where are you? Isabella's been taken by the police. You need to save her."

Theodore's voice was calm. "If she's innocent, the police will release her. If she's guilty, we can't help her."

Realizing Theodore wouldn't help, Darren shouted, "Don't forget, she's your sister. Are you just going to watch her suffer?"
