Ethan put on a stern expression, attempting to make Shandra pay more attention to Matysh's case. "Ms. Cullen, this is something that others wouldn't be able to handle, but I believe in your abilities. I hope you won't let Mr. Matysh down after he puts his trust in you."
After that, Ethan glanced at his room key. Without waiting for Shandra's response, he headed toward his room on his own.
Ethan swiped the card and pushed the door open. He immediately frowned in disgust.
This hotel was far below his expectations. It was nowhere near the standard of the hotel that Luke had booked for them before.
Ethan even believed that the hotel Luke had booked for them could not match his status, let alone the one Yvette had arranged for them now.
He looked toward Shandra but refrained from expressing his disappointment.
Shandra's expression was cold, and her brows were slightly furrowed, expressing her dissatisfaction with what he said earlier.
Ethan walked straight into his room and closed the door.
Yvette let out a sigh. "Ms. Cullen, how is that even possible..."
Even if the invincible Walter were to defend Matysh, such a thing could not be accomplished.
That was really far-fetched...
"Don't mind him. Let's focus on our own tasks," replied Shandra while she looked around for her room and swiped the card to enter.
She did not mind the low hotel rating since she was here for work, not for a vacation.
After Shandra entered her room, Yvette followed suit and entered her own room. Before closing the door, she glanced at the room opposite, where Ethan was staying.
She could not help but roll her eyes when she recalled what Ethan had said earlier.
'You don't want him to go to jail? Then he shouldn't have committed a crime in the first place!’
Meanwhile, downstairs at the business hotel, Walter was checking in.
He had already made a reservation for the hotel when he planned to come yesterday, but when he arrived and saw two cars parked in the outdoor parking lot, he realized that Shandra was also staying at this hotel.
How could their connection be so easily severed?
Walter's mood brightened a little. He was not in a good mood after he heard the owner of the milk tea shop speak ill of Shandra.
However, the misunderstandings people had about the legal profession were not something that could be cleared up in just a day or two. That was why he did not bother explaining.
Now that he knew he was staying in the same hotel as Shandra, his mood improved even more.
After checking in at the hotel front desk, Walter contacted his assistant.
Shandra was still working with her previous assistant while he had a new assistant. He did not bring his assistant along with him today. He had him continue handling documents at the law firm in A City.
After Walter contacted his assistant, he asked him to help in organizing some of his work materials.
The scene at the milk tea shop was no longer of concern to him, and he did not continue dwelling on his displeasure.
As the night wore on, the hustle and bustle of A City gradually subsided, returning to tranquility.
Rain and Anita sat in a black car, waiting for everything to be quiet again.
"Ms. Rain, it's about time." Anita glanced at the road conditions outside. There were only a few cars left on the road. Even the youngsters who were reluctant to go home had dispersed, and the nightclubs were preparing to close.
"Yeah." Rain yawned and looked at Mandy, who was still drowsy, through the rearview mirror.
Francis Brown, a police officer who was slightly older in age, keenly noticed a corner of paper sticking out of the woman's pocket. He stroked his chin and asked the young police officer beside him, "Did you inform the chief?"
"I've informed him. He's on his way." The young police officer nodded. It was late at night, and waking up their chief had surely put him in a bad mood.
However, given the circumstances, the chief had to be present!
"This is outrageous. Call an ambulance and take pictures of this woman's appearance. We should also run a comparison in the system to confirm her identity." Francis, being an experienced officer, took charge and made some arrangements. Then, he put on forensic gloves and took out the envelope.
He was worried about damaging any fingerprints on it.
After reading the contents of the envelope, Francis' expression changed. He set the envelope aside and started searching the woman's clothes.
It was indeed inappropriate for a male police officer to conduct a search on an unconscious woman.
However, the other police officers did not say anything either. They knew that Francis dared not behave improperly in front of so many people.
"Officer Brown, what are you looking for?" asked the young police officer. He noticed the man's actions and assumed that he was searching for something.
"There's a letter. Put on gloves before you take a look. Don’t damage the fingerprints on it," said Francis. He found a small memory card in the right pocket of Mandy's pants.
Then, he said to the other police officers, "This woman may be involved in some wrongdoing related to Mr. Norman's case. Make sure the doctors keep her in the detention ward when we take her to the hospital later."
The look on the police officers’ faces grew more serious.
"Officer Brown, are you sure about that?" asked one of the officers. They had already identified a foreigner as the suspect in Mr. Norman’s case. How could this young woman be involved in it?
Could this case potentially involve more people?
Moreover, what role did this young woman play in all of this? Francis did not explain it clearly, leaving the minds of others to wander in a certain direction.
