The officer noticed Natalie’s frosty tone and tried to reassure her. “Ms. Stone, please don’t misunderstand. We only want Mr. Gunn to cooperate with our investigation. We need to confirm whether he crossed paths with the teacher during the time she was attacked.”

“I don’t know,” Natalie answered evenly. “My husband rushed the children to the hospital to check for residual toxins in their bodies. As for whether he ran into the teacher on the way, I can’t say I was here with the principal at the time. His phone fell into a puddle and no longer works. If you insist on questioning him, you can go to the hospital.”

She understood her duty to cooperate, but unease gnawed at her.

Why did it feel like she and Baron were being maneuvered into a trap? Why did Susie always end up in the middle of these schemes?

And yet no proof. Nothing she could hold on to.

That made it worse.

Seeing that Natalie, though cold, was still cooperative, the police exhaled in relief.

“Thank you, Ms. Stone. If further questions arise, we hope you and Ms. Sue will continue to assist us.”

“Of course,” Aubree replied quickly.

The principal seized the moment to step forward. “Look, none of us wanted things to turn out this way. Now that the police are involved, both Susie’s case and the teacher’s will be investigated thoroughly. For now, you should focus on recovery. When everything is resolved, then return to the kindergarten.”

Natalie narrowed her eyes but didn’t argue.
