Pursuing Her

Chapter 23 Evidence

“Ma’am, we’re just going to bring her in for questioning.”

“I don’t think that’s necessary. All she does is cause problems.”

I really can’t stand Sophie.

“You should go back to the class, Mrs. Fletcher,” uttered Sophie coldly.

She’s not even qualified to become a teacher.

As she followed the police officers downstairs, Willow was coincidentally ascending the stairs, but Sophie did not even bother to glance at her.

However, Willow halted her steps, a frown on her face.

“Just what exactly did Sophie do that the police are here for her?”

“Don’t know.”

Willow could not bear to listen to the students’ gossips.

If the news of Sophie being arrested spread around, will Grandpa still give her the shares?

Bearing that thought in mind, she quickly gave Charmaine a call.

“Mom, the police took Sophie in from the school. I don’t know for what. Just wanted to inform you in case you and Grandpa want to check on her.”

On the other side, Charmaine was enraged after she received the news.

That darned Sophie! Why didn’t she just die in Horington! Is it not enough for her to embarrass us five years ago? Why is she still causing trouble!

Josiah seemed to take notice of her fury as he queried, “What’s wrong?”

“Dad, Sophie is arrested. I don’t know what happened, but I’ll go to the police station now.” No matter what, she’s still a Tanner. I can’t neglect her.

“What?”

“Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll go check on her.”

“Wait, I’ll go with you.”
