Isabella’s emotions were impossible to untangle Overwhelming, regret and self–hatred flooded her chest, et stronger than anything else was her resentment toward Alexander,
Her eyes reddened. She took out her phone and made a call at once.
Samuel answered quickly. “Miss!”
“Sam, arrange for two men to come over. Now.” Her voice was cold and sharp.
It sent a shiver through Samuel. He fell silent for a moment, asked no questions, and replied, “Oczy,”
At the police station, Alexander sat in the interrogation chair. Fear showed clearly on his face.
He looked at Ezra across from him and spoke in a panic. “Officer, this has nothing to do with me! I never wanted to hurt the child. I didn’t touch him at all. Mandy did everything!”
Ezra frowned. His voice turned icy, “You blocked Clement’s way. That makes you an accomplice.”
“No, I didn’t!” Alexander shook his head again and again, his words tumbling out in disorder. “I only told him to stop. I was afraid he would expose what happened. I didn’t do anything myself. I swear I didn’t…”
Ezra smiled without warmth. “You can explain that to the judge.”
Both Dubois cases were already in the hands of the prosecution. Mandy was guaranteed a death sentence. As for Alexander, even without accomplice charges, he could still be prosecuted for harboring a criminal and held criminally responsible. Several years in prison were well within reach.
After Ezra left, Alexander remained in the interrogation chair. His whole body trembled. All he could do was pray in silence.
Would anyone come to save him?
Isabella suddenly came to mind. If she used her connections, she could definitely get me out.
The thought barely formed before he shook his head in defeat. Isabella would never help him now. Her heart was entirely focused on her ex–husband.
As that realization settled in, Alexander’s resentment toward Dominic surged. ‘A car couldn’t even kill you. How can you be so lucky?‘
Ever since he was beaten at the banquet, misfortune had followed him without pause. In the end, Alexander placed the blame squarely on Dominic.
He had no idea how much time passed.
Then a police officer approached, removed his handcuffs, and spoke flatly. “You can go.”
Alexander froze. “What?”

The officer looked at him coldly. “What, you don’t want to leave?”
“Yes! I’m leaving right now!” Alexander’s joy burst free as he hurried to the wheelchair beside him.
He collected his phone and belongings and followed the officer outside.
At the registration desk, he saw Isabella standing beyond the station doors.
She stood quietly. Her eyes were faintly red, her expression calm and distant, her beauty striking and unreal.
Alexander froze and stared at her.
The officer had to call his name twice before he snapped back to attention.
His heart swelled with unrestrained joy. ‘It’s her. Isabella saved me. She must still have feelings for me. She even divorced her husband for my sake. Her eyes are red now. She must have heard about my arrest and rushed here to rescue me.‘
Alexander felt euphoric, as though the entire world had suddenly brightened. ‘Isabella will be mine again. And her sister Katherine too. I’ll have them both.‘
After completing the paperwork, he did not leave right away. He took out his phone and snapped a photo outside the station. Then he sent the photo of Isabella to Dominic.
He had secretly added Dominic on WhatsApp long ago, waiting for this moment. He followed the photo with a smug voice
message.
“Hey, ex–husband. You lost. Bella is mine now. I just got arrested, and she was so worried that she used her connections to get me released. Looks like I’m destined for a happy night, haha. You’re divorced now, so I’ll take good care of her, and Lily too.”
