Fiancé Uncle 291
"Officer Lawson, what do you think?" Thea stared at Samuel.
Jamie's mentor's last name was Lawson, and he was a veteran police officer.
Samuel smiled, finding it ridiculous. "Do you think that our police force is not strong enough and needs your help to find out the truth? Ms. Rowland, you're a criminal now. You don't have the right to negotiate with us."
Thea nodded in agreement. Indeed, that was the case. "Now, the evidence is conclusive and all the physical evidence points to me. If I'm not wrong, workers will come forward to testify soon."
Since Duncan and Emmalie had done it, it would be a flawless plan.
"Closing the case now is the best way to solve this matter, and it's also the least troublesome for the police. But Officer Lawson, is this really your original intention?" Thea pursed her lips tightly, and examined Samuel and Jamie in front of her.
Jamie had the drive of a young man. He wore his police uniform neatly and his might be a business war? Someone is sabotaging you behind your back."
Thea did not answer.
eyes lit up. "Ms. Rowland, do you mean this
Since Samuel accepted a standard second-generation heir like Jamie as his student, this showed that Samuel was not afraid of trouble.
Although Thea did not understand Samuel's personality, she knew Jamie well.
It was true that a teacher passed on his traits to his student.
Samuel laughed. "Ms. Rowland, how do you want to cooperate? I do want to find out the truth of every case so that innocent/ people won't be wronged, but this is not something I can decide. You're now involved in a major case. It's impossible for you to walk out safely." Just the online public opinion alone was enough to condemn them.
"I don't want to go out." Thea knew her current situation. This request was too difficult for Samuel and Jamie in front of her,
Even if the mountain's collapse did not cause any deaths, so many people were injured. It was impossible for Thea to completely absolve herself.
All she could do was try her best to clear her name. "Officer Lawson, I saw a group of people acting strangely at the scene. I suspect that they might have been sent by the other party to clean up the scene."
Jamie took notes crazily at Thea's words.
Samuel's eyes lit up. "The surveillance cameras in the western suburbs have all been damaged due to the collapse. Ms. Rowland, do you have any clues for us to continue investigating For example, do you remember any characteristics of those people, such as their looks or body build?"
Thea had already prepared an answer. Without thinking, she said, "They wore police uniforms. The leader had a scar on his hand. I don't know the exact area, but the entire back of his hand was covered in wounds."
As soon as she finished speaking, Samuel received a call.
He went out and then walked in again. He looked at Thea with a deep gaze. "We've caught him. Ms. Rowland, you can prepare to leave. From now on, you only need to cooperate with the police investigation. Your phone must be turned on 24 hours a day."

Thea was surprised that the police acted so fast. They managed to catch the other party with just a phone call.
Thea was brought out of the interrogation room in a daze. When her gaze met the tall figure at the end of the corridor, all her doubts dissipated.
She was not surprised by Nicolas's arrival, but she was inexplicably nervous and did not dare to approach him. "Did you catch that person?"
After a tiring night, Thea's shoes and clothes were covered in mud. They looked incompatible with Nicolas's suit. However, Nicolas would never despise her.
Nicolas draped his expensive and neat suit jacket over Thea's shoulders and wrapped her tightly. "I'm here to bring you home. Not only did we catch the person, but we also found gunpowder residue on the other party's body. After inspection and comparison, it's 100 percent consistent with the soil on the mountain in the western suburbs."
It was also because of this evidence that Thea was successfully bailed out.
This case had a huge social impact. If Nicolas had not provided substantial evidence to temporarily clear Thea's name, he would not have been able to easily take Thea away.
He was always so casual about it. However, Thea understood how much effort he had
put
1. in.
Even Samuel looked troubled when he heard that they were going to arrest this group of people, but Nicolas beat them to it.
It was not just because Nicolas was powerful. While Nicolas was waiting for Thea's news, he never slacked off and constantly paid attention to her movements. Nicolas said, "Okay, let's go home."
Thea lowered her eyes to hide her emotions. "Nicolas, why do I feel that you're there every time I need you? You'll make me rely on you more and more,"
Without saying another word, she held his large, warm hands.
Thea was not someone who would express her emotions outwardly. However, if the person was Nicolas, she would be willing to try to do so for him.
Even after seven years of long-distance dating with Jake, Thea had never known that this was what it felt like to be loved. She could be fearless because she knew that Nicolas would always have her back.
Thea thought that she was probably still lucky. Otherwise, she would not have met a good man like Nicolas after breaking off with that scumbag Jake on the eve of their engagement.
Nicolas saw her expression clearly. As he strode forward, he said. "Then continue to rely on me." Thea was his wife, and he would pamper her.
Duncan had made the biggest mistake of targeting Thea. More than half of his overseas businesses were destroyed under Nicolas's manipulation. Duncan went for wool and came home shorn.
When Thea walked out of the police station, the sun was shining brightly.
The sun shone directly on Thea. She could not even open her eyes, but she could feel the warm sun dispelling the coldness in her body.
Darwin drove Nicolas and Thea home.
In the spacious backseat, Nicolas hugged Thea tightly. "This matter has nothing to do with you. If anyone is to be blamed, blame the person who set up this conspiracy for not taking human lives seriously."

He knew Thea too well. She had built an armor around herself. No matter who hurt her, she would retaliate ruthlessly.
However, underneath her armor, Thea had a soft heart.
She watched helplessly as the workers were carried out on stretchers. Every one of them had wounds of different sizes.
That would become Thea's eternal nightmare.
"It really has nothing to do with me?" Thea mumbled, her eyes tired.
However, she did not dare to close her eyes. "If I had realized the importance of the mine in the western suburbs to Sparkle Rocks and strengthened the security, would they not have been able to have the chance to do that?" There was no point in talking about it now.
Thea felt Nicolas beside her suddenly hugging her more tightly, as if he wanted to fuse her deeply into his bones and blood. "They schemed against you intentionally. Even if it wasn't the western suburbs, they would definitely target the other suburbs. Thea, you just have to remember that no matter what, I will face it with you.".
Through the rearview mirror, Darwin saw Nicolas's deep and focused face.
He had worked for Nicolas for many years. Nicolas only had such patience when facing Thea.
Darwin was speechless. Hendrix was really lovestruck.
As soon as Nicolas said that he wanted to wait for Thea to ask for help, he immediately investigated and collected evidence. He was afraid that Thea would not be able to eat or sleep well at the police station. In any case, he had to get her out first. Nicolas was so confident because even if Thea did nothing, he would make an exception for her.
