Chapter 716 The Tool for Distracting Emotions

By the time Emelie finished showering and lay down, it was already four in the morning.

It had been a whirlwind of a day for her, and she had met all sorts of people.

First, she returned from Borealis City to Capebatt City, then she went to the detention center to see Charles and got Shane's contact information for Elias.

Later, she visited a restaurant to bid farewell to Emmie and helped Samuel choose a wedding gift for Melanie.

In the afternoon, she was involved in a car accident on her way back to the hotel, then she spent five hours at the hospital with Samuel until Bryan and Nehemiah arrived.

Afterwards, she had to face interrogation at the police station. That was where she encountered William and argued with Patrice.

She was almost certain that both the accident and her old case being brought up were orchestrated by Beathan.

Finally, she was sent back to the hotel by Ashton.

The sheer volume of events had kept her mind racing, and she found it hard to fall asleep.

She only managed to close her eyes when dawn was breaking. However, before nine o'clock, she was woken up by the ringing of her phone.
