Chapter 862 Like in Purgatory

Toby didn’t care what she was thinking. After he walked into the room, he stood next to a few officers and stared at Anya coldly. ”Do you really not recognize this person?” he repeated.

She shook her head with her eyes closed. ”President Fuller, I’m telling the truth. I really don’t know this man, but I would like to know why you asked me to come to the police station late at night. What is your intention?”

”Ms. Steinfeld, you have been involved in a robbery and the malicious acts that resulted in personal property damage. The damage caused is estimated at about a few million, and this amount is sufficient to classify this matter as a criminal case,” one of the officers answered coldly as he looked at her.

She raised her head in dismay when she heard that. ”What? Robbery? I’m suspected of robbery?”

”That’s correct.” The police officers nodded.

Anya suddenly became agitated by the officer’s words. ”Cut the nonsense. I didn’t rob anyone! Who did I rob?”

”You robbed two of Ms. Reed’s gowns; she is President Fuller’s girlfriend. Based on the statement that Ms. Reed had provided, both of you were in the same designer shop this afternoon where an argument occurred. You attempted to grab the gown that Ms. Reed had reserved but failed to do so. Therefore, we have reason to suspect that you held a grudge against her, so when Ms. Reed left the shopping mall, you got someone to snatch the dress from her. That person is the man in this picture.”

”No, I’ve not done anything like that.” Anya was so anxious that her eyes turned red as she tried to defend herself. ”I don’t even know this person. I admit that I met with Ms. Reed in the designer shop, and there was an argument, but I’ll never get someone to snatch the gown from her. I’m just a normal person, unlike Ms. Reed, who is the president of a corporation and the girlfriend of President Fuller. I don’t have the guts to snatch her things. Doing so would be akin to digging my own grave.”

”This…” The officer didn’t know what to say because she was right about one thing.

It was true that those who knew about Sonia’s identity would not do such a thing since doing so would be asking for trouble.

Usually, those who were in their right mind wouldn’t have done that.

Maybe it was really not her doing?

A gleam flashed across Anya’s eyes as she saw how the officers became hesitant about her committing the crime before she broke into a smile.

Soon after, her smile froze on her face when she heard something unbelievable.

It was because Toby had started talking, and his tone was as cold as always, making her tremble in fear. ”Even when you knew that Sonia was my girlfriend, you dared to provoke her and tried to break us up. And now you’re saying you don’t have the guts to hire someone to snatch her things?”
