He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 339

Upon arriving at the precinct, Jacqueline hauled Corinne out of the car and dragged her inside, her eyes blazing with murderous intent.

Scarlett followed closely behind, quickly typing a text message.

[Bill, Mom looks like she's about to go on a rampage.]

The reply was instantaneous: [What happened?]

[Mom dragged Yardley's mom to the police station. She's finally settling the score from years ago.]

He understood immediately: [Don't worry. Let Mom do whatever she wants. I've got it covered.]

Communicating with her brother was always effortless.

With just two sentences, he knew exactly what to do.

Feeling relieved, Scarlett put her phone away and stepped briskly inside.

"What do you think you're doing?! Let go of her hair and talk properly!"

Inside the station, an officer who appeared to have been waiting for them immediately shouted a reprimand the moment he saw Jacqueline dragging Corinne in.

Two junior officers rushed forward, shoving Jacqueline away and forcibly restraining her arms.

The leading officer then turned to Corinne with immediate concern.

"Hello, are you Ms. Corinne Quinn?"

Watching this unfold, Scarlett's eyes grew cold. It was obvious someone had already called ahead to pull strings.

Corinne acted as if she were a victim of a horrific crime.

"Yes! That's me, officer!"

"Quick! Arrest these two crazy bitches! They're monsters! My scalp is practically bleeding!"

Feigning extreme agony, Corinne clutched her head.

The entire car ride, Jacqueline hadn't loosened her grip, leaving Corinne's scalp completely numb, though she hadn't dared to utter a peep.

Now, surrounded by police, she latched onto the officer's arm as if he were her savior, cowering behind him and trying to put as much distance between herself and the Langleys as possible.

"Please have a seat and try to relax. We'll handle everything from here."

Receiving the silent support, Jacqueline instantly steadied herself.

"I don't have it on me, but she just admitted out loud that she still has the photos and videos from that night!"

"You can pull up the case files from fifteen years ago. I reported it immediately. The officer who handled my case was Officer Sutton."

Jacqueline stated the facts of the past with chilling calmness.

Scarlett realized the truth—her mother had actually gone to the police back then, but the powerful elites had buried the case without a trace.

She couldn't even imagine the living hell her mother must have endured during those days.

Scarlett's heart ached fiercely for her.

Just then, Corinne burst into a dramatic, mocking laugh.

"I was just bluffing to scare you! Why would I have photos or videos?"

"I don't have anything! Jacqueline, I barely even knew you fifteen years ago! Why would I ever assault you? Stop trying to frame me!"
