The officer looked a bit awkward. “We’re just following procedure. She doesn’t have any solid evidence, just a bunch of fabricated statements. She suspects you pulled the oxygen tube in the ward, but there were no cameras in there that day.”

“So we’re just asking you as a formality,” the officer added.

Whitney took a deep breath and said, “Well, Officer, you’re saying she has no proof that I killed my dad? Then I should be able to leave now, right?”

“I deny everything you just asked, and I didn’t do any of it. If she suspects me and wants to press charges, she’ll have to come up with some actual proof,” Whitney said.

Outside the police station, Whitney ran into Ivan’s girlfriend.

Riley smiled. “You must be Ivan’s protégé. I’m Riley, his girlfriend, and also a criminal defense attorney at PrimeBridge Law Firm.”

Whitney shook her hand. “Hello, Riley. Are you Boss’s girlfriend?”

Riley blushed, and cleared her throat. “Yes, I guess I am.”

With that, she gave Whitney a mischievous wink.

Whitney smiled and said, “Got it.”

Riley asked, “Did they let you go? I just got off the train and rushed over. Ivan said something happened to you.”

Whitney shook her head and said, “My sister just made a false report. She doesn’t have any evidence at all.”

“Alright, if you need anything, just come to me,” Riley said.

Klein rushed over. “What’s going on?”

Whitney shrugged. “Who knows what kind of drama Tina’s pulling this time?”

Klein snorted. “We should just ship her back to the sticks. Farm work suits her better anyway.”

Whitney couldn’t help but worry Klein would end up making things messier.

“Let me deal with this myself. You stay out of it,” Whitney said.

Klein furrowed his brows, clearly not thrilled, but in the end he just nodded. ‘Fine, I’ll let you handle it,’ he thought, even if he wasn’t happy about it.

On social media X, Tina was going absolutely nuts.

After flooding her feed with dozens of ranting posts, she finally started to get some attention.

[I’m Tina Moore, and I’m publicly accusing Whitney Moore of deliberately mistreating our father, which led to his death. She cremated my father’s body without my permission before I even got home. I demand the authorities launch a full investigation!] Tina posted.

Whitney glanced at Tina’s childish allegations and didn’t hesitate to have Riley fire off a lawyer’s letter right

away.

‘Defamation is a crime, just saying,’ Whitney thought.

Before anyone online could even pick a side, they all got shut down by the truth.

The legal notice was just the opening move. Right after, doctors, nurses, and even the caregivers came forward to speak out, backing Whitney up.

The police officially announced they wouldn’t pursue the case.

In the end, it was all just Tina putting on a show.

Tina clearly made a fool of herself.

Netizens were always quick to get played, but this time Tina was just way too childish and her scheming was ridiculously obvious. Instead of getting Whitney canceled, she ended up getting dragged all over the internet herself.

In the end, the Boone family came and took her back home.

And just like that, the whole drama finally came to a close.

Carter and Emily landed at eight that night.

Sabrina could barely contain her excitement.

James invited Klein over for dinner, but Klein politely turned him down.

His exact words were, “Dad, you want a grandchild, right? I gotta step up my game. I’m not getting any younger, you know.”

And just like that, Klein bailed on dinner without a second thought.

Whitney gave Klein a playful kick in the calf from behind.

“Seriously? Can’t you come up with a better excuse?” Whitney shot back.

Klein grabbed her by the waist, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her softly.

“Hungry? Should we eat first, or work up an appetite and then eat?” he murmured, voice full of mischief.

Whitney blushed.

Klein’s eyes glinted with desire. “Let’s get it done before we eat.”

*****

After Carter and Emily got back to Harris Manor, they found Uncle Klein was nowhere to be seen.

Carter knew he probably shouldn’t ask, but he couldn’t help himself. “Mom, didn’t Uncle Klein come back?

Sabrina shot him a glare, noticing her daughter’s pale face. She snapped, “No, he didn’t! Why don’t you wor about your own son for a change? Emily hasn’t seen your son for half a year. But you have never seen him.

Carter chuckled. ‘Yeah, that was awkward of me,’ he thought.

“Alright, I’ll head upstairs right now,” he said.

Emily gave a sheepish smile. “Mom, I’ll go up and check on Cupcake.”

The nanny had just finished feeding Cupcake when Carter and Emily walked in.

“Mr. Harris, Mrs. Harris,” the nanny greeted them.

After greeting them, the nanny glanced up at Emily.

Emily still had her long, manicured nails on, and she reached out to touch the child.

The nanny felt a wave of anxiety, worried for the child.

“Mrs. Harris, it’s better if I hold him. Cupcake just ate. If we switch now, he might start crying,” the nanny said

Emily pulled her hands back. “Alright, could you hold him up so we can see?”

‘She treats her own kid like a toy,’ the nanny thought, rolling her eyes secretly.

Carter was pretty nervous. This was the first time he was meeting his son face-to-face, not just through a

screen.

He gently squeezed the baby’s tiny hand. “Hey, Cupcake, I’m your dad. Come on, say ‘Dad’!”

The boy had just finished eating, his big, curious eyes wandering all over the room, anywhere but Carter.

It was obvious the boy couldn’t care less about Carter.

Emily was getting a little flustered. “Look, son, that’s your dad! Look at your

dad!”

She kept saying it over and over, like she was trying to reassure herself, not just the baby.

It was almost as if she believed that if she repeated it enough times, Carter and the baby would magically
