Yale, who only dared show himself after the police took Clayton away, immediately went to Sophie.

“What happened, Soph? Why are you covered in blood? Are you hurt anywhere? I’ll get a doctor!”

Sophie rolled her eyes. She could not help but wonder if the man was really her father. How is he always this laughable?

“I’m fine, but you still have to get a doctor!” said Sophie because both Charmaine and Willow were hurt.

“Sure. You don’t need to worry about it. I’ll get one right away.”

“Mr. Tristan, is your hand okay?” asked Yale concernedly when he noticed blood on Tristan’s hand as well.

However, Tristan chose to ignore Yale.

“Felix, I’ll let you handle things here while I take Sophie back with me.”

To that, Felix immediately nodded in response.

“All right. You go back and rest. I’ll take care of things here. Don’t worry,” Felix said although he did not think there was much left to do.

“Ms. Willow, we’ll need you to come to the precinct with us. We have some questions for you,” said the last policeman at the scene.

Willow could almost cry when she heard the police officer.

“I didn’t do anything, and I don’t know anything. Dad, I really don’t know anything at all.” With wounds all over her face, Willow looked wretched, and she was genuinely afraid of being taken to the precinct.

“Willa, the police just need you to assist in the investigation. You have nothing to fear,” reassured Yale.

“Really?”

Sophie sneered at Willow’s reaction. She was bold enough to hold a gun just now. What happened to that bravery of hers now that she’s to be taken to the precinct? What a joke! “Give us a minute. I need to speak with her alone!”

Tristan did not think that was a good idea. What else does Sophie have to say to Willow? That woman is the embodiment of selfishness.
