Allison understood what the police officer meant.

It was unlikely that she could claim her money back. Even though she was lucky enough to claim it, no one knew when it would happen.

Besides, the longer it took, the lower the chances of claiming it back.

“Then what can I do now?" Allison asked. She could not wait to urge the police officer in front of her to investigate the case now.

"Ms. Tanner, you should go home and wait for our call," said the police officer. Allison had signed and pressed her fingerprint on the document. That was all she had to do.

Now, she had to wait for the police to further investigate it.

"Okay..." Allison was unhappy. However, it was useless even if she urged the police to look into her case.

Besides, Luke had already told her that he would not help her.

After Allison left the police station, she got into the Crawford family's car and returned to Crawford Manor.

It was almost midnight. Sophian was still up. She was waiting for Allison to come back.

Allison pushed the door open and walked into her bedroom. She frowned when she saw that Sophian was still there. Then, she asked, "Why are you not in bed at this hour?"

"Ms. Allison, my colleague who's working at the hospital called me just now." replied Allison. She had to inform Allison as soon as possible. Otherwise, she might get scolded for not telling her earlier.

"The look on your face. Is it about the surgeon?" Allison had a bad feeling. She took off her mask and threw it into the trash bin.

"Yes, Ms. Allison. The surgeon said he'll only be working at the hospital for 10 days instead of half a month. That means if you don't go back to Seoul this week, you'll have to wait until he finishes his refresher course," said Sophian. It was too sudden, but it might be a good thing.

"That soon?" Allison frowned. The police had only arrested the swindler. They would need some time to make him talk, and they needed time for investigation too. She could not wait until the police got her money back.

There was only one way that would work now.
