Chapter 521 Are You That Afraid of Him?
The police officer wanted to ask for more, but Kyran stepped in. “Sorry, but I think we’ll have to stop here. She hasn’t exactly recovered from falling off the cliff. Coupled with the abduction incident, it’s only natural that her trauma is affecting her memory recall,” he said. “Once she has some time to process the entire thing again, she might remember something. We’ll come back and give new information by that point.”
Although the police officer found the resolution quite disappointing, he could get behind Kyran’s
explanation. Nodding, he said, “We’re counting on you, Miss McKinnon. Please contact us as soon as you remember anything more.”
They shook hands, and Deirdre left with an icy feeling in her gut. She wondered how long she was supposed to hide from the public. Was she doing right by hiding?

I think you knew who masterminded the whole thing, but you wouldn’t say it for some reason. Is something compelling you to keep quiet? Is the culprit someone you knew, or…”
Deirdre did not expect Kyran to see through her mind and gave a mirthless laugh. “Fine. You’re right. I’m aware of the mastermind’s identity.”
Kyran frowned. “Then why say nothing? Why protect evil? Whoever they are, they deserve to get their comeuppance and be served justice. They don’t deserve mercy.”
Deirdre cast her eyes down. Naturally, she knew all of that! She wished she could pack Charlene’s *ss into the justice machine and watch her suffer her sentences! But the problem was…
