Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 189

I was feeling quite rotten, despite Ronan's repeated assurances that cooperation was crucial. This entire ordeal was a severe blow to my self-esteem.

The ride was silent, with no attempt at communication from either side.

At the station, I was led into a meeting room and introduced to two officers. Their demeanor was friendly enough as they smiled, "Miss Aaliyah, right? No need to worry and this is a routine inquiry. Please, have a seat."

Although hurt and confused, I managed to retain my composure, sitting across from them with calm. Facing the officers, their penetrating gazes made me a tad nervous.

I couldn't help but think to myself, that life really is unpredictable. I never imagined I'd find myself being questioned by the police because of my husband's mistress. My resentment towards Jaylan grew.

Their questions, however, weren't too tough. I answered each honestly, without any evasion.

"Do you know Evan?"

"Yes!" I nodded assertively.

"How did you get to know him?"

"I met him about two months ago when I was picking up my son from school after recovering from an illness."

"Do you remember the exact date?"

"Yes. It was my son's birthday. I wanted to pick him up and celebrate." I then mentioned Probert's birthday.

The questions were simple, I felt no pressure. They even asked why I chose to return to Silverdale City at that particular time.

I answered all their questions with ease, not needing to think much.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly. The questioning didn't last an hour before they let me go.
