After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 112

I felt vexed as I recalled the smug look in the woman’s eyes when she got into the police car earlier. Damn it, why did I let her call the police? We wouldn’t be at such a disadvantage now if she didn’t do that!

Natalie frowned as she exclaimed anxiously, “What do we do now, Anna? We can’t just plead guilty to something like this!”

“I don’t know. I thought about calling Yuval for help since he’s a lawyer and all, but they’ve confiscated our phones.”

We weren’t able to contact anyone outside for help without our phones, and we didn’t have any connections in the police station that could help us out either.

Natalie’s face was filled with guilt when she saw how stumped I was.

“I’m sorry, Anna… It’s all my fault that you’re locked up in here with me…”

She felt extremely guilty as John was the main reason we were in this mess.

“What are you saying, Natalie? You’re my best friend, and I’m not about to just sit by and watch you get bullied! Besides, you were there for me when that scumbag Justin betrayed me back then!”

Natalie was the one who stood by my side and supported me when Justin and Mabel hurt me. Now that the same thing has happened to her, I can’t possibly abandon her! If she’s going to get locked up in a police station, then I would rather get locked up together with her. This way, we would at least be able to look after each other somehow.

Natalie leaned against my shoulder and sobbed when she heard that. “Thank you, Anna… Thanks for staying with me no matter how difficult things become!”

I held her hand tightly in response. Man, they really have us backed into a corner… We won’t be able to leave the police station if we don’t sign the papers, but signing it pretty much guarantees that we end up in prison for a few years! Assault and battery is a pretty serious crime, after all. Regardless, we were simply acting in self-defense, so we mustn’t sign those papers!

Right as I was desperately trying to come up with an idea, the door to the interrogation room was opened once again. I thought it was the police officer coming to pressure us into signing the papers, only to have my heart skip a beat when I clearly saw who it was.

It was the woman who got into a fight with us earlier, and she looked completely unscathed.

“Oh, my! Crying already? Your sentence hasn’t even been handed down yet!”

She had a smug look in her eyes as she made her way towards us in high heels.

The fact that she was able to enter the interrogation room on her own accord made me a lot more certain about my suspicions. This woman must have connections in the police force! She chose to call the police because she knew Natalie and I would get in trouble!
