“I’m serious. Sierra told me herself,” Miranda insisted, sounding almost desperate now.
Louise didn’t even look up from her game. “No way. I don’t buy it.” She tapped away at her screen, acting as if nothing in the world could bother her. The only thing she cared about was making that girl who hit her come over and apologize.
Miranda was about to say something else when there was a knock at the door.
She turned around and instantly felt her heart drop.
“Police. Is this Louise’s room?”
That got Louise’s attention. She lifted her head and saw two officers in uniform. She assumed they must have come on her uncle’s orders. “Yeah, I’m Louise. Did my uncle send you? Where’s that girl? Why didn’t you bring her here so she could confess and apologize?”
Miranda quickly snapped, “Louise, don’t say another word.”
Louise just shrugged, totally unfazed. “I’m just saying what’s true. Didn’t Uncle say she was taken to the station already? Why isn’t she here yet? I want to go home. I can’t stand it here. It’s awful.”
The two officers didn’t respond, letting Louise talk, just listening to see if she would slip up and say something useful.
Miranda, remembering what her husband had told her, stepped forward and scolded, “Louise! You’re still hurt. Quit messing around.”
That finally made Louise pause. She remembered that Miranda had told her to cooperate with the officers and not let them realize she was faking.
She muttered, “Okay, I get it.”
One of the officers came over and showed his badge. “I’m Ashton, and this is Emilio.”
“We’re with the First Detective Unit. We’ll be handling your case from now on.”
She noticed the way they looked at her and, feeling awkward, lay back down. “She was totally out of control. She kicked me so hard I went flying. I couldn’t even get up.”
“What about the medical report?”
Louise froze, then glanced at Miranda for help.
Miranda faltered, unable to say a word. They hadn’t actually done any examination. They thought Allen’s connections would be enough to handle everything. Who would have thought the case would end up with the First Unit?
Ashton and Emilio exchanged a look. “So, there’s no medical report?”
Sweat started to bead at Miranda’s hairline. “My… my daughter was in so much pain, she couldn’t move, so…”

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
