Sophie was straight to the point. "I believe the Chief should be aware of my purpose here. No need for further ado. Take me to Reece now."
"Of course, everything has been prepared for you. Right this way, please!"
An officer escorted Sophie to the interrogation room.
Reece had lost count of the days he had been detained. His face was covered with stubble, and he looked haggard.
Upon seeing Sophie enter, Reece almost rushed to her but was stopped by the guard at the door.
"Ms. Sophie, you may have your conversation here. We'll be outside guarding. If you need anything, just call for me."
"No thank you," Sophie said coolly. "I'm here to take someone with me today."
"That... That's beyond our authority."
The officers were visibly troubled, but Sophie glanced at them coldly and said, "Reece is a talent under S Corporation. S Corporation's lawyers have been negotiating with you for a long time. We agreed to compensate for the alleged assault. Besides, you've been questioning him for days. Have you found nothing?"
"I didn't hit anyone!" Reece shouted.
Hearing this, Sophie's gaze turned even colder. "If he didn't hit anyone, on what grounds do you keep him detained?"
"The main issue is that the evidence is inconclusive. Plus... plus the alleged victim refuses to settle."
"Oh? And who might the alleged victim be? I'm quite curious to see who is framing a talent from S Corporation!"
Sophie's presence was formidable, causing the officers to sweat profusely. They finally understood why Officer Derick had avoided coming in person!

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
