Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 409

Arwen stared at the frozen video for a good while without responding.

Officer Davis allowed her the moment to process her thoughts, but when she remained silent, he nudged. "Ms. Quinn?"

Arwen's gaze shot up, fixing on the officer in front of her.

"If I say yes, will that be enough for you to take under custody and punish her for what she did?"

Officer Davis was caught off guard.

Although he had anticipated either a confirmation or denial of his suspicion, he hadn't expected this counter question.

It only meant on thing —she didn't need this video to know who was behind her accident. She had known it from the beginning.

However, even if she was sure, he couldn't help her much. Just on her statement, he can't go and arrest Delyth Ember. After all, everything has to go through the process.

Choosing his words carefully, he shook his head, a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"Sorry, Ms. Quinn. Even though this footage strongly suggests Ms. Ember's involvement in your accident, we can't take action without a thorough investigation. Your statement alone isn't enough."

Arwen knew this better than anyone.

This was exactly why she hadn't taken any action herself. Because she knew in the end, without any strong evidence, she won't be able to prove it was her.

"Then what's the point of asking me this question?" she asked, her voice calm yet laced with slight disdain. "In the end, you can't do anything, can you?"

Officer Davis glanced towards Mia, who had been standing quietly all this while.

If she hadn't been standing right in front of him, he might have forgotten she was even in the room.

He only felt her presence when he felt her gaze at himself. She was staring him down, her expression filled with disappointment —not just in him, but in the system that failed to act even when the evidence was clear as day.

Clearing his throat, he said, "Ms. Quinn, I understand we can't do anything at this moment, but we can assure you that if you give a statement against her today, we will make sure to investigate it thoroughly and make sure in future, she can't bring you any harm like this."

Arwen didn't respond right away.

However, after a moment, she nodded. "Fine. If that's all you need to investigate this thoroughly, then I will give my statement against her. But, Officer Davis, if I give this statement, I hope the law and you won't disappoint me."

Officer Davis didn't understand the weight of her words —until she played the video again.

Ryan appeared soon on the screen.

As it had happened that night —ignoring her completely —he walked straight to the other car and was soon seen carrying Delyth in his arms.

Glancing her way once, he turned to leave and left as if he hadn't seen her there at all.

She had thought she was past it.

She had thought she had given up completely.

Yet, even no, after months, the scene still stung.

The pang of betrayal still made her heart clench.

A pang of failed expectations —expectations of expecting basic humanity.

"Mr. Foster is a good friend of yours, isn't he?" she asked, a faint but a meaningful smile curling her lips.

She didn't say anything more, but the weight her words was enough.

She had made her doubts very clear.
