After Boris and the others left, many residents came to Willow Creek Clinic to express their congratulations. They even told Yolanda they would always support them. The locals hadn't dared to come earlier because of the crowd gathered at Titan Alley, but they finally found their opportunity now.
When the hundredth-day celebration ended, Yolanda asked Knox to reserve tables at his taco place. The whole group then headed there for lunch.
Meanwhile, as Kate followed the dispersing crowd away from Titan Alley, she pulled out her phone to call Diana. Before she could dial, several uniformed officers surrounded her.
The lead officer addressed Kate, "We're from the Titan Alley Police Station. I'm Finley Landson, badge number 8951."
Kate's expression changed as she retorted impatiently, "What's this about? Since when do police officers stop people at random? Show me your identification!"
Coming from Creybia, she wasn't some country bumpkin who would get flustered at the sight of a few officers. Finley showed his badge and asked, "Do you know Yolanda Henderson and Sharon Jones?"
Kate immediately shook her head. "Never heard of them!"
Eddie quickly chimed in. "Right! We're from Creybia, so why would we know people from this backwater?"
Though Yolanda now had protection, she had offended Boris. They wanted to make sure her affairs had nothing to do with them.
Finley's brow furrowed slightly as he asked again, "Are you sure you don't know her?"
"Absolutely!"
Kate and Eddie firmly denied knowing Yolanda.
"Take them in!" In the next moment, Finley and his colleagues produced their heavy handcuffs.
"Damn it! We haven't broken any laws! What right do you have to arrest us?"
