The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 331

“When Elaine found out she was going to jail, she was scared out of her wits. Her attitude completely flipped, and she showed great remorse. Following your instructions, she can leave after being detained for two days.

Lila's involvement has also been verified by the police. Not only did she instigate Elaine to cause a public disturbance, but she was also the one who uploaded the video online.

However, considering she deleted the video promptly and it didn't gain much traction, her punishment is one month of criminal detention, civil compensation, and a public apology.

Are you satisfied with this outcome, Ms. Vance?”

“Just proceed according to the law. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Quill.”

“You're too polite, Ms. Vance. Whatever Mr. St. John assigns is simply my duty.”

Riley knew this was yet another favor she owed Sebastian. She owed him so much that she feared she wouldn't be able to repay him in this lifetime.

At 11 AM, two police officers escorted Lila into the psychiatric and psychological department.

The hallway outside the office was packed tight with patients, while the colleagues inside stared in complete bewilderment as Lila was led directly to Riley's desk by the police. No one had a clue what was going on.

Feeling the spotlight of everyone's stares burning into her, Lila felt like she was on fire.

It was humiliating. Utterly humiliating.

But if she didn't apologize, her punishment would only be worse.

Keeping her head down, she mumbled, “Dr. Vance, I'm sorry.”

One of the officers frowned. “You sound like a mosquito. Is this how you show remorse?”

The other officer chimed in, “If you can't do it right, go back and polish your attitude before trying again.”

Lila shuddered in terror. She bowed to Riley and raised her voice. “Dr. Vance, I was wrong. I shouldn't have egged your mother on to slander you, and I definitely shouldn't have uploaded the video of her causing a scene to the internet. I am so sorry.”

Riley completely ignored Lila, stood up, and looked at the officers. “Thank you for your hard work.”

“It's our duty. Her official written apology will be published on your hospital's website shortly.”
