True Love Waits

Chapter 406 You Broke The Law

Debbie tried her best to stay calm. "Officer, may I ask how Megan was murdered?" she asked.

The policeman looked at her warily and answered, "She was raped and then stabbed with a knife. She bled to death."

Debbie was confused. "She was raped. How could I have done that?"

"We've already caught the rapist. He had left the spot after raping her, but then returned after some time. He claims that he saw you stab Megan Lan multiple times."

Saying that, he produced a transparent plastic bag and placed it in front of her. "Is this yours?" he asked.

Inside the bag was a knife.

Debbie's eyes widened in horror. "This is mine! But I was getting married today. Do you really think I would go out and kill someone several days before my wedding?"

The policeman stopped taking notes and lifted the pen from the notepad. He looked her in the eye and asked, "How was your relationship with Megan Lan? Did you get along?"

Debbie wondered how she could explain her relationship with Megan without making it sound like she had always wanted to murder her. "I admit that Megan and I were not getting along well, but I had never thought of killing her."

"Why weren't you two getting along?"

The interrogation lasted a long time.

Debbie was on the brink of a meltdown. She kept repeating the same words "I didn't kill Megan. I need my lawyer. I will find evidence to prove my innocence."

Three-odd hours later, another policeman entered the interrogation room. "Debbie Nian, your lawyer is here."

She saw Xavier and Ivan walk in.

Ivan was acting somewhat strange. Xavier said, "Debbie, things have become a bit complicated. The surveillance video from that night shows that Megan was taken out of the city in your car." Debbie's breathing hitched. A cold shiver ran down her spine. Someone was deliberately framing her!
