Chapter 215 Why Should I Believe You?
Chapter 215 Why Should I Believe You?
Sophie felt sick when she thought of Timothy, the stupid man.
She had escaped. But Timothy would definitely betray her for himself and would even say some unrealistic words.
She was now worried about what Timothy had said, and was panicking.
The police and Sky were here. She was afraid that the scandal between her and Timothy could no longer be concealed. She was trembling badly as she was in a breakdown once again.
"Mrs. Tanner, we're here to see you for a statement." The police came straight to the point.
"Go away! You guys go away!" Sophie was very excited.
She was afraid to look at the police in uniform and hid behind Sky, running away from reality.
"Sophie, what's wrong with you?" Chandler felt sad while looking at his daughter who was scared.
"Sophie, don't be afraid. They are police officers, not bad people." Joy also pacified her daughter.
"Dad, Mom, let them go and leave our house. I don't want to see them!" Sophie kept shaking her head and clutching Sky's sleeve, "Sky, didn't you say you were going to take me home? Hurry up and take me away, right now!" This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Sky looked at her calmly and pulled her hand down, "Sophie, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid!" Sophie widened her eyes and spoke loudly, as if she was hiding something.
"Really? Then why are you so afraid of the police!" Sky frowned slightly.
"I ... I'm not afraid. I just don't want to see the police." Sophie denied it.
"Mrs. Tanner, please cooperate with us to make a statement!" the police also became aggressive.
"I didn't do anything. Why do I need to make a statement? I said I was forced to! Why can't you guys let me go? If you need to make a statement, you can go to find others. Don't come to me!" Sophie was so agitated that she couldn't calm down at all.
She was too scared to look at the police, just kept her head down, and panicked.
"Timothy has made a statement, and so will you. We're going to check whether your statements are consistent and see if any of you are lying." The police said to her.
"Timothy? What the hell is going on?" Chandler and Joy were confused to hear this name. And the statement... They couldn't make it out at all.
"I don't know this person!" Sophie flatly denied.
"Mrs. Tanner, please do not make a meaningless struggle. Today, you and Timothy were caught on the spot at the Luck Hotel on Sapphire Rode. If it were not for you threatening the police, you would have made a statement and gone home by now." The police frowned at the resistant Sophie, "No matter how you deny it, you cannot change what has happened. So, you should cooperate with us to finish it early, so that we can leave earlier."
"Sir, can you tell us what's going on?" Chandler was confused while listening to this and just wanted to know the truth.
"Yes. What has my daughter done? And what does it have to do with Timothy?" Joy looked at Sophie with distress. What happened to Sophie and made her look like this?
"Well…" Sophie interrupted the police before they could finish his words, "You can't talk about it! Stop!"
Sophie pounced on them, waving both hands like a wounded lioness, trying to hit the police.
Seeing this, Chandler and Joy pulled her, "Sophie, you can't hit the police. It's against the law to assault police!"
"Dad, Mom, it's them... They want to ruin everything for me..." Sophie was in great pain. Tears filled her eyes and she looked pitiful.
"Mrs. Tanner, please don't be unreasonable!" the police said sternly, "How can you blame us for what you have done? We are only enforcing the law impartially!"
"Bullshit! You guys are deliberately targeting me!" Sophie could not help but cry out as if she had been greatly wronged.
Sky kept looking at Sophie coldly, feeling as if this woman was no longer the Sophie he knew, but a strange and scary woman.
"Sir, let me say it." Sky looked at the police and pleaded.
"Okay." The police nodded.
Sky looked at Mr. and Mrs. Linder who were holding the crying Sophie, "Mom and Dad, today, Sophie and Timothy were caught on the spot for illegal trading between men and women in the Luck Hotel on Sapphire Road ... So, you should understand now."
He truthfully explained the story to the elder according to the information provided by the police.
Sophie did not dare to look up and face Sky. She just kept crying, but could not move Sky at all.
"What!" Chandler was angry after listening to it and looked at Sophie next to him, "Sophie, you have done such a shameless thing!"
Joy also felt that the news was like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky. Although she knew that Sophie had slept with Timothy once, it was just an accident, because Sophie was drugged.
But this time, she couldn't make any excuse for Sophie. Because in the face of conclusive evidence, any reason would be powerless.
"Sophie, how can you be so stupid!" Joy felt sad, "How can I say about you!"
Chandler let go of his hand and Joy also let go. Sophie felt her legs weaken and fell to the ground. Her long hair covered her face, and no one could see her expression clearly.
"Mrs. Tanner, we'll give you one more chance to make a statement." The police asked her, "Mr. Timothy said that you did it willingly. If so, it's not a prostitution charge."
"I was forced to do it. I didn't do it willingly!" Sophie reacted with excitement when she heard "willingly".
"If you were forced, then he committed rape and you have the right to sue him." The police reminded her.
"I'll sue him!" Sophie bit her lip, her eyes full of hatred, "I'm going to make him pay!"
With that, Sophie cooperated with the police to make a statement in the study, while the others waited outside.
When the police left after the statement was made, Sophie slowly came to Sky and her eyes were filled with tears, "Honey, please forgive me. I was really forced to do it. Please believe me...."
She pursed her lips and almost cried out. But she tried to hold back her tears and just looked at Sky pitifully. Her eyes were full of begging.
Sky just stared at her sweet and lovely face quietly, as if he was trying to see through her clearly, but only to find that he had never seen through her.
"Sophie, I would love to believe you. But matters have reached this stage. Why should I believe you?" Sky smiled, but his eyes were cold.
