Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Arresting Someone on the Scene
When the police asked for a name, all eyes on the scene instinctively turned toward the girl sitting on the sofa.
Miss Huo had always been afraid of encountering the police, but she hadn’t expected this day to actually come.
Her hand holding the coffee trembled slightly as she forced herself to appear calm and replied, "That’s me!"
The policeman immediately showed his credentials and said sternly, "You’ve been reported for drugging and framing someone. The evidence is substantial. We need to take you in for questioning right away."
Miss Huo froze, an icy chill climbing from her feet to her head. free𝑤ebnovel.com
In her heart, she cursed bitterly, Damn you, Lin Banxia. So, you’ve come for me after all.
To think she actually filed a report with the police! Now, if she were taken away in front of all her girlfriends, her reputation would be utterly ruined.
So, Miss Huo quickly put on a frightened expression and said, "Officer, there must be some misunderstanding here! How could I possibly drug someone to harm them? Just look at me—don’t I look so kind and innocent? I wouldn’t even step on an ant. I really didn’t do anything harmful, you have to believe me. Maybe someone is jealous of me and is deliberately trying to frame me."
"Whether you’ve been wronged or not, we’ll investigate thoroughly. For now, please come with us," the policeman said firmly.
Her group of girlfriends stood nearby, each stunned and covering their mouths in disbelief.
"Anya, what’s going on? Why are the police here for you?"
"They’re saying you drugged someone? Is that true?"
"Anya, don’t worry. We absolutely believe you’re not that kind of bad person. This has to be a misunderstanding."
Miss Huo, already distressed, became more irritated upon seeing the astonished expressions of her friends.
"Officer, do you know who I am? I’m the eldest daughter of the Huo Family. If you want to arrest me, shouldn’t you at least consult my grandfather..."
"We’ll notify your family. For now, please cooperate with our investigation," the policeman replied.
Miss Huo did not want to be taken away here; it was too humiliating. If word got out, she would immediately become a laughingstock.
That damned Lin Banxia—this move of hers was truly ruthless and venomous.
"I’ll go with you, but can you at least let me change my clothes first?" Miss Huo pointed to the beauty salon uniform she was still wearing.
She was actually trying to use the excuse of changing clothes to find an opportunity to escape.
She often visited the beauty salon and knew that outside the main entrance, there were likely reporters waiting to catch something newsworthy.
The salon was a frequent spot for female celebrities, and if reporters captured footage of her being taken away by the police, she’d be finished.
"Miss Huo, we’ll accompany you while you change your clothes," said the two accompanying female police officers promptly.
Miss Huo’s heart sank. She realized her chances of escape were slim now.
Entering the changing room, Miss Huo immediately put on a pitiful expression and pleaded to the two policewomen, "Police sisters, could you do me a favor? Let me drive my own car to the police station with you. I promise I’ll cooperate fully with your investigation."
"Sorry, but we’re here on official duty," one responded.
Realizing that escape was impossible this time, Miss Huo thought about using her phone to call her grandfather for help.
"Miss Huo, regardless of who you’re calling right now, you must come with us to the station to accept investigation," said the police firmly.
