Chapter 188 Get Revenge Sooner or Later
Of course, I understood the implication of his words, but I did not respond, just observing Ensio
hurrying over. He seemed quite anxious. It seemed my intended mission had already been achieved.
Idris, too, noticed Ensio’s arrival and furrowed his brows slightly, but he did not rush to ask any questions.
Ensio, panting from the rush, stopped and took a moment to catch his breath. He glanced at me, seemingly hesitant.
Noticing this, Idris prompted, “What’s the matter?”
Ensio steadied his breath and spoke in his usual manner. “The police took Ms. Scott away. They said she’s involved in a criminal case and needed to take her in for questioning. They showed an arrest warrant.”
Upon hearing this, Idris’s expression remained calm. He just glanced at me briefly, then calmly said to Ensio, “Anything else?”
Ensio looked a bit confused, not understanding Idris’s current behavior.
After a few seconds of hesitation, he said, “Mr. Young, about Ms. Scott…”
“If she has caused trouble, it’s procedure for the police to take her,” Idris interjected, his demeanor
unchanged.
Ensio seemed somewhat concerned and added, “But Ms. Scott attempted suicide yesterday by taking a large amount of sleeping pills. She barely survived. If the police take her away, could something happen?”
Idris turned to him, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. “Are you very concerned about her wellbeing?”
This question seemed to stump Ensio, and even I was taken aback.
Muttering, Ensio finally said, “No.”
Perhaps sensing Idris’s indifference toward Moore from his tone, Ensio did not press further and excused himself. “Then Mr. Young, I’ll head back to work.”
Idris nodded, and Ensio left.
Standing there, I began to feel increasingly uncertain about Idris‘ thoughts. I had assumed that with
Moore’s suicide act, given his usual character, he would not just stand by. But his reaction just now was unexpectedly indifferent.
“Did you call the police?” Idris‘ deep voice broke the silence.
I did not deny it and answered frankly, “Yes.”
Before he could question me further, I faintly heard his soft chuckle. “You came to see Grandma so

early and went through all the trouble to have her call me here. Were you afraid I would stop the police from taking her away?”
I glanced at him, noting that people who rarely smiled often looked especially good when they did. Idris was one such person. Following his words, I simply nodded without saying anything.
He suddenly let out a cold laugh, as if my nod was a confirmation, somewhat sarcastically saying, ” So, you plan to settle both new and old scores with her?”
I did not avoid his question but responded directly. “Speaking of which, I should thank you for going to the border to find the evidence of her framing me back then. Otherwise, I couldn’t have done anything to her.” Looking at his calm face, I could not guess his thoughts. I continued, “People always have to pay the price for their actions. What I’m doing now is simply seeking justice for myself and those she has hurt. If you are reluctant and want to protect her, then we might not even be able to be friends anymore.”
Idris’s face darkened. His eyes narrowed, and his voice was a bit heavy. “Yvette, have you ever really listened to what I said? Or should I say, have you ever trusted me at all?”
