Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 292

Chapter 292 Be Careful 

The police officer beside Penelope looked at him intimidatingly. 

“We’re taking an official statement. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed here.” 

“I’m not unauthorized personnel. I am directly involved in this.” 

Caleb’s injuries were quite severe. His arm, leg, and face were bandaged. He was limping. 

However, he was in a good mental state, so it didn’t seem too serious. 

“Madam, I am the driver in the accident earlier and Leonard’s cousin. I know I have records overseas, but the police have done their investigation and proven my innocence.” 

He quickly explained his situation overseas. 

It turned out his classmate took a loan to gamble under his name. 

Caleb only knew about the loan when the other party came knocking on his door. 

The situation was pretty severe at that time; he wasn’t the only one. Four or five others were victims of identity theft. 

“We were blacklisted then. Luckily, the police were able to find concrete evidence. Perhaps they have yet to update the records locally, but I can guarantee I wouldn’t have returned if I owed any money. Nothing like this happened.” 

He looked at me. 

“Eva, you must believe me. If I gambled, my parents would have wanted me dead.” 

I thought about Darius‘ serious face and solemnly nodded. 

Darius and Leah had ulterior motives. However, they hadn’t done anything that would hurt me. They had their limits. 

So, I had always thought they taught Caleb well. He was morally upright. 

Penelope was shocked by his sincerity. 

She said blankly, “I was just laying out the information. It wasn’t the result of the investigation. I’m sorry. The information here is not synced with the one overseas.” 

Caleb let out a sigh of relief. “Madam, you scared me.” 

“Officer Crowe was merely informing me. Please don’t take it to heart. She takes her work seriously.” 

Penelope was an excellent police officer. 

I didn’t want to make things difficult for her, and I believed Caleb’s words.

The other party wouldn’t have allowed him to return if he owed money. 

However, I remembered what he said before I passed out. 

I lowered my gaze, hoping it was merely my imagination. After all, I always had hallucinations. 

Caleb was present, too. Penelope didn’t say anything else; however, I received her text after she left. 

It said, “Be careful of the Harmons. Keep a closer eye when you are signing any documents.” 

Looking at the text, I wasn’t sure how to reply. I only replied to thank her. 

The police must have found out about something, but she couldn’t tell me, so she only gave me a gentle warning. 

She knew that someone in the Harmon family was out to get me. It seemed like this matter had caused a huge stir. 

Caleb noticed something was off about me and carefully asked, “Are you okay, Eva? What did the doctor say?” 

“I’m okay. It’s only a mild concussion.” 

“Does it affect y–your cancer?”
