Jenna responded, “Yes, we need you to stabilize the situation now, Mr. Perry. I’ll go check out what’s happening at the police station and find a way to get Sophie out.”
“Alright!” Mr. Perry agreed.
Meanwhile, Sophie had been sitting quietly in the interrogation room for a long time, with no one coming to question her. She was locked in this enclosed room for a full three hours.
She glanced at her watch and gently tapped on the table. Immediately, a guard came in and asked, “Ms. Sophie, would you like some water?”
“How long do you plan to keep me here?” Sophie didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly.
The guard seemed troubled and said, “Are you tired? Would you like to rest?”
Sophie changed the question, “Who reported me?”
“I’m sorry, that’s confidential. We can’t tell you.”
Sophie frowned slightly.
They wouldn’t do anything to her, considering Colby’s influence, but they wouldn’t easily let her go either. She was really worried about what was happening outside.
“I need to make a phone call.”
“Ms. Sophie, you are in the interrogation phase right now. You cannot make phone calls.”
Sophie tapped on the table in irritation. “Then when will the person questioning me arrive?”
The guard quickly apologized, saying, “They are currently assigning someone to investigate, so no one is available to come back right now. If you feel tired, we can arrange a room for you to rest.”
“Arrange a room? A cell, you mean?” Sophie’s voice grew colder.
The guard immediately fell silent.
Sophie coldly stated, “Call whoever is in charge here. I’ll give you half an hour. If I don’t see anyone, my lawyer will sue you.”
