The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 646

Officer West's implication was crystal clear. The "larger conspiracy" was undeniably the Thorne family.

It seemed the Sterling and Thorne families were truly engaged in an all-out war.

While none of this had anything to do with me directly, the fallout was incredibly beneficial. I was thrilled to hear they were going down.

I squeezed Officer West's hand in return. "Thank you, Officer West. I will cooperate fully with the investigation. I hope you drag the masterminds out into the light."

The fluorescent lights of the office reflected in Officer West's sharp, determined eyes. Despite being a young woman, she radiated an aura of absolute authority and safety, making me feel like justice was genuinely within reach.

In that moment, a bold thought crossed my mind. Could I trust her to investigate the car crash from twenty years ago?

"I'll cooperate fully as well. Officer West, call me immediately if you need anything," Caspian chimed in, leaning over my shoulder.

Officer West smiled. "Thank you both for your cooperation. I won't hesitate to reach out if we need you."

"Are there any other forms we need to sign? If not, we should probably get going. We haven't had dinner yet, and I need to take Selena out for a proper meal," Caspian asked, shooting me a warm glance.

I figured he had noticed my panic attack earlier and was worried that staying in the precinct too long would trigger my PTSD again.

A rush of gratitude warmed my chest. I was incredibly lucky to have a friend like him.

But honestly, the terror had already faded. Clint was behind bars, the Thorne family was under investigation, and the truth was finally coming out. With justice on the horizon, I wasn't afraid anymore.
