Chapter 142 Jenny Is Captured
Before their conversation ended, someone walked in through the door. But this time, it wasn’t just one. person, but a whole group of people.
The police officers came in. “We received a report saying that a murder has taken place on this grounds.”
Jenny pointed at Steven, lying on the bed. “He was already dead when we came in.”
The police officer ignored her. When he saw the corpse on the bed, he turned grim and immediately called for his partners. They seemed to have already pinned the two people as suspects.
Alec and Jenny were both taken to the police station. They awaited their interrogations.
At the same time, the news of Steven Dickman’s death spread through Parrington like wildfire. He was, after all, the son of a major family. People would care.
Soon, photos of Jenny being taken to the police station were leaked. People began saying that Steven was trying to rape her, and when she was defending herself, she stabbed him to death.
The people began cursing and calling Steven a monster, but they also cursed Jenny for being a murderer. In the end, Steven was still a human being, and the police could investigate his crimes. There was no need to kill him.
Quickly, the internet was split. Some people thought that Steven was a bastard and that he deserved death. On the other hand, some believed that his crimes didn’t warrant his death and advocated for Jenny to pay her dues.
Jenny knew nothing about all this. She was being interrogated at the time, and the atmosphere was bleak. She sensed that things were about to be complicated.
“You say that Steven was already dead when you got in, but results from the autopsy revealed that he was already dead for an hour before the police arrived. Does that mean you’ve been in the room for an hour?”
Jenny frowned and said honestly, “I was knocked unconscious and brought to the hotel. When I woke up, I realized he was dead. You can check the surveillance cameras. You should be able to see that I didn’t walk in by myself.”
