Jewel angrily retorted after listening to Justin’s shameless words, “You’re talking nonsense!” The police looked at Jewel and his expression turned serious. “Watch your attitude!”
She frowned. “He’s talking rubbish. He was the one who harassed me, and I only fought back!” The police rebuked, “You caused such injuries with just one strike? Enough. If you have something to say, say it at the police station!”
The few men took advantage of their severe injuries and cooperatively got into the car. Jewel also walked toward the car helplessly. At that moment, Alex approached as his eyebrows furrowed tightly. “What’s going on?”
The police officer was a newcomer and didn’t recognize Alex. After sizing Alex up, he said, “It’s none of your business. Don’t interfere with our investigation.”
Alex wasn’t addressing the young officer, though. His gaze was fixed on Jewel. Unexpectedly, the young officer spoke up, so Alex shifted his gaze toward the police officer. “I am a witness. How is it not my business?”
The officer was taken aback and responded professionally, “In that case, come with us!”
Jewel suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed. She had just been in a fight and now he stumbled upon this scene. Isn’t he supposed to be at Olivia’s place? Why is he here? And he just had to witness me in such an embarrassing situation.
She said to the police, “There’s no need. This matter has nothing to do with him!” Alex looked at her and he had many unspoken words. After a moment, he pointed to a nearby car. “My car is over there. I witnessed the whole thing!”
Jewel furrowed her eyebrows and looked at Alex. With just one glance, she hastily averted her gaze. His gaze was too intense and piercing to meet directly. She sighed helplessly in her heart. Just now, he was indifferent to her at Olivia’s place, and now he actively involved himself. What was he up to?
The police officer looked at the two of them and said, “Both of you will follow us back to the police station!” At the police station, the police separated them and took them for individual interrogations.
Alex had driven himself, so he arrived slightly later than the police car. When he saw the police leading Jewel into the interrogation room, he hurriedly caught up and reassured her, “Don’t be afraid. Just tell the truth. Everything will be fine!”
Jewel remained silent, nodded at him, and followed the police into the interrogation room. She wasn’t afraid at all. She just felt embarrassed in front of him and couldn’t understand his intentions.
The rookie police officer had just joined the force. He had a straightforward personality and despised evil. In his view, the few men who were knocked down on the ground were the weak ones after considering their injuries. If they were as the woman claimed, would they dare to call the police?
As for the woman, she had a cold, hard face and a defiant gaze that seemed somewhat arrogant! During the interrogation, he couldn’t help but let his emotions show while reminding her, “Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you know some martial arts. This is a society governed by the rule of law, and everyone must abide by it!”
Jewel narrowed her eyes slightly and felt displeased with the young police officer’s words. “What about you?”
The police officer replied, “I have to abide by the law as well!” Jewel retorted, “If that’s the case, is it appropriate for you to label me, a victim, as someone who acts without regard just because you haven’t fully investigated the situation? What do you mean by saying I’m acting without restraint because I know martial arts?”
The police officer said, “I’m just reminding you!”
Jewel replied, “I don’t need your reminder.”
The young police officer stared at her for a while before asking, “Your name?” She leaned back while suppressing the annoyance in her heart. Her ID card was in his hands, yet he still asked for her name.
“Jean Louis!”
The police officer wrote it down and asked again without lifting his head, “Age?” She couldn’t help but take a breath as she felt. frustrated. She was truly annoyed today and knew that she should cooperate in this place, but she just couldn’t calm herself down. “99.”
The police officer looked at her dubiously and then glanced at her ID card. “Aren’t you 29?”
