Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us!

Chapter 185

At this time, two police officers came over and flashed their IDs at Selena. “Excuse me, are you Selena Yard?”

“Yes.”

“Please follow us to the police station.”

Selena looked at Meredith, and likewise, Meredith looked at her with something indecipherable in her gaze as she stood there emotionlessly, her expression tinged with a faint hint of sorrow.

Just when the police officers were about to take Selena away, the Lakes suddenly appeared. The person who rushed forward was one Selena recognized—Finneas’ mother, Judy. “How’s my grandchild? Is my grandchild okay?”

Upon hearing this, Meredith was naturally perturbed. Megan is all but lying in the ICU, yet their only concern is the child in her stomach. Still, she kept her composure. “The child is gone, and my sister is now in the ICU.”

“My grandson is gone! How could God be so cruel?” Judy instantly burst into tears and wailed loudly, her bearing as a wealthy woman disappearing into thin air. Thus, it was evident how much she’d been looking forward to the child.

All of a sudden, she swung her gaze at Selena. “It was you! You did this! It must have been you, yes? I want you to pay for my grandson’s life, you evil woman!” Then, she abruptly charged at Selena and left a few bloody scratches on her face. All at once, Selena felt a burning pain on her face. After all that scratching, Judy then grabbed her hair. While Selena was no easy prey, Judy was an old lady, so it’d be bad if she took it too far and caused Judy’s death. Nonetheless, she still instinctively resisted, which angered the old lady even more that she successively slapped her several times.

In the end, it was the police who stopped Judy. “We’re going to take her to the police station, so please don’t obstruct us.”

“Take her away and sentence her to death!” Judy roared.

Selena then left with the police officers pathetically. For some inexplicable reason, she took a last glance over her shoulder at Meredith, only to see her standing there, seemingly with a faint smile on her face. “Hurry up!” a police officer urged. At this, she quickly left.

At the police station, Selena had her statement taken. She cooperated and briefly explained the entire incident.

“Why did you strangle her?”

“Because my daughter was missing. We had a grudge, so I concluded that she must have taken my daughter. Naturally, I had to confront her.”

“And so, you strangled her? Then, you even pushed her down the escalator?”

“I didn’t push her. At that time, I wanted to loosen my hands when I noticed that she was almost running out of breath, but someone tripped me, and I almost fell. However, her neck was in my grip, so…” Selena had never thought that things would come to this either.

“It wasn’t deliberate?”

“Of course, it wasn’t deliberate. Considering the height of the escalator, pushing someone down might result in the person’s death. I’ve got a daughter, so I don’t want to get embroiled in such a lawsuit.”

The police officers then asked her a few more questions before they finally concluded the session.

“Can I leave now?”

“You’re wanting to leave? Do you know that this is a case of intentional harm? If the other party refuses to let this go and files a lawsuit, you’ll be convicted. You’d better contact your family and have them settle this out of court. Anyway, you won’t be leaving today.”

“What are you saying?”

“I’m saying that you’re being detained. Do you still not understand?” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

After that, Selena was detained for real, so she had to stay in the police station miserably. Fortunately, Linda can take care of Juniper. However, I’m well aware that the Lake Family will never let me off the hook, nor will Roland. There are grievances between us in the first place, and all the grievances are now revived. Worse still, I’m the one on the losing end.
