No Remarriage for Us: Stay Away
Chapter 501 Dodge A Bullet
“This is a long story. Where are you now?”

“On the way to the police station.”

“I'll go there too,” Lenora said.

“All right, we'll talk when we meet.”

After ending the call, Sophia placed her phone into the armrest compartment next to her.

At the police station, after taking down the statements from Sophia and Zephyr, the police officer turned to Zephyr and asked, “All right, explain how you managed to locate the flour mill.”

Zephyr recounted the events truthfully.

“Lenora Wilkin? Is she a friend of yours?”

“Yes.”

“How did she find out?”

“I'm not sure. She'll be coming over later. You can ask her then.”

The police officer glanced at his partner's computer records and gave a nod. “Next question, who is Isla?”

“Isla's full name is Isla Wilson. She is Matthew Xenos' niece,” Sophia replied softly.

The police officer took a sip of water and asked almost instinctively, “Who's Matthew Xenos?”

Sophia remained silent, raising her index finger and pointing toward the ceiling.

The police officer understood instantly, almost choking in surprise. He coughed a few times before asking, “Does she have any grudge against you, Ms. Tortell?”

“Not really, but there were plenty of scores to settle...”

Sophia began to recount to the police officer, piece by piece, the friction between her and Isla—from Sloummont to Jacaster.

“Surely, it's because of that time when Nora and I smashed her car. She wanted to retaliate but couldn't find the right opportunity to target Nora, so she had no choice but to come after me.”

As the police officer listened, he couldn't help but let his mind wander.

Once Sophia finished speaking, he rose to his feet. “You two wait here for a bit. I need to step out for a moment.”

After he left, the police officer who was taking records also departed.

In the interrogation room, only Sophia and Zephyr were left.

She whispered to Zephyr, “They must have gone to their leader.”

“Yeah, I'm going to make a phone call.”

“Okay.”

Zephyr dialed the number of Matthew's secretary.

The secretary handed the phone over to Matthew.

He briefly explained the situation in a few sentences, stating that he intended to teach Isla a lesson.

Otherwise, she would continue to be ignorant, acting recklessly without any consideration.

Matthew did not object.

When the call from the leader of the police station came through, he relayed the solution that Zephy had just proposed.

The leader understood Matthew's intentions. Turning to his subordinates, he instructed, “Proceed as usual and bring her in. Let her learn a lesson in the detention center.”

The subordinate nodded. “Understood.”

The police officer returned and enlisted the help of three colleagues to apprehend the suspected criminal.

To located the suspect, Zephyr made a phone call to Isla.

Upon receiving the news of the plan's failure, Isla was filled with fear, already having returned to Matthew's home.

When she saw the incoming call from Zephyr, her face turned pale. Her hand trembled slightly, almost causing her phone to slip onto the ground.

It wasn't until the call was nearly dropped automatically that she mustered the courage to answer. Struggling to steady her trembling voice, she said, “Zephyr?”

“Have you eaten yet? I'm bringing dinner home. Do you want me to get yours too?”

Upon hearing this, Isla couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. “No thanks, I've already eaten.”
