Chapter 108 “Mr. Newman?” The officer was slightly surprised to see Lucas there. After all, Lucas was a Inown professional in the education industry and because the officer was of a higher level. he naturally knew about Lucas.
Lucas nodded. “Miss Cheyenne worked at our school and we cannot escape the blame when she encountered such a thing on her way back from school.”
“If Mr. Lucas is willing to make compensation for the loss, you may proceed to discuss this with Miss Vallois here, okay?” The officer said.
Anne immediately objected to the idea. “It‘s fine. This has nothing to do with the school. My mom got off work as usual and was taken away by my aunt. How could the school be to blame in any way?” She turned around and looked at Lucas with blood–shot eyes with tears threatening to drop. “Thank you for sending me here, Mr. Newman. I won‘t take up any more of your time.”
“...I‘m sorry for your loss.” Without another word, Lucas gave her a sympathetic look and turned to leave, but the police stopped him.
“I remember something that I need to clarify. What exactly is Cheyenne‘s role in the school? We saw from the surveillance footage that she was with three children when she was leaving the school.” Anne‘s eyes widened in shock as her blood ran cold. Lucas turned around calmly and said, “She worked at the school canteen and occasionally acted as nanny for some of the kids.” “I see. That‘s all I need to ask. We might need to check the surveillance cameras on campus later on, we wish you could cooperate,” the officer added. “Of course.” With that, Lucas left. Anne sighed a breath of relief, grateful that Lucas helped to hide the identities of her children and even made it so that it would be hard for anyone else to be suspicious about it.
She turned to look at Anthony and was instantly overwhelmed by frustration. “Why are you here? Can you leave?”
His expression darkened. “Are you sure you are going to talk to me like this?” She lowered her gaze, tears welling up her eyes once again when she saw her mother‘s body.. Unable to bear the suffocating tension in the room, the police officers and doctors all turned to leave.
Anthony darted forward and grabbed her by the chin. “I will let this slip this time!” Before letting her go and leaving as well. Anne stumbled backward and leaned toward Cheyenne‘s cold body in tears. “Mom...you said you were going to stay with me forever. Why did you leave me? What should I do? What about the kids? I can‘t do this alone...” Anne could not understand why the gods would give her a taste of the warmth of a mother, only to take it away from her shortly after. Everything happened in such a short period that
she had forever lost the chance to be with her mother before she could spend much time with Cheyenne. She handled the cremation process on her own and returned to her apartment with the ashes. She set the urn onto the coffee table and sat on the floor, her tears had not ceased from the beginning as she struggled to accept what had happened.
However, she still had three children to look after, no matter the pain, she had to white knuckle through it.
