Chapter 28: 28 - Where is Emilia Blake?



"What? Do you think all of these people are blind?" The police chief exclaimed, trying to explain the situation to the woman who did not understand. Instead of apologizing and letting the situation end, she continued with her confusion, prompting the police chief to express his frustration,\'do all women have brains in their knees?\'

The police chief felt frustrated, knowing well that in such situations, they need to adapt and show their most likable side in front of so many cameras to prevent everything from becoming public.

"Yes! All of these were purchased by that worthless person!" Lin Wanruo was going through the most difficult time of her life as no one seemed to appreciate her accomplishments in protecting all the high society members. Instead, these people were defending someone with a terrible track record.

:: As you can see, the officer in charge of this area seemed to deflect responsibility for the situation, either blaming Mr. Damien Raphael or even us, the press, for providing live updates during the crisis. ::

"Shut up!" Lin Wanruo couldn\'t understand the hypocrisy of the media reporters who were giving biased opinions and showing double standards.

They praised her when she caught a criminal, but now that she revealed the true face of a person who hosted a party to harm reputable individuals, they were blaming her.

"LIN WANRUO! SHOUT ONE MORE TIME AND YOU LOOSE YOUR JOB!" The police chief saw how poorly this woman was handling the situation and knew that he would have to deal with the consequences.

He felt the urge to slap the woman at that moment.

Naturally, if he had been alone, he would have praised her to gain favor from her family, and behind her, he would have supported Raphael\'s groups in order to gain favor from both families.

But now this woman has disrupted everything by behaving like this in front of the whole world.

Now, he needs to give a proper judgement to maintain his image and not offend Raphael, who could be considered to have higher priority in his list of concerns.

"?!" Lin Wanruo felt her heart stop for a moment as she was being scouted like this for the first time. She kept looking towards the police chief with trembling pupils, biting her parted lips and gripping her hand tightly enough to cause her fingernails to dig into her flesh.

"Alright, if it wasn\'t Damien Raphael, then who saved those people?" The police chief composed himself, realizing that if it had been a regular officer, he might have reprimanded or even suspended them immediately. Understanding her background and family connections, he asked with genuine compassion.

"Yes, it was Edward who was Amelia Crimwell\'s bodyguard," Lin Wanruo replied instantly, seizing the opportunity to dispel the heroic image that everyone was creating for Damien Raphael, who had hidden in a room with two women instead of protecting anyone.

"You mean the man whom you arrested, right?" The police chief rubbed his forehead and gestured with his finger towards a police officer who was moving towards his car. The officer took out a piece of paper and a tablet.

"Yes, I just arrested him because Damien falsely accused him of consuming Benzene," Lin Wanruo nodded, glancing towards the reporters who appeared calmer now. Instead of blaming her, they seemed to look towards each other and murmur.

"You definitely have prejudice against Damien Raphael, don\'t you?" The police chief felt annoyed as he opened a video on his tablet and played it, then turned the screen towards Lin Wanruo and continued, "You seem to view a murderer as a savior, but not Damien himself."

"Of course not—?!" Lin Wanruo\'s voice turned icy as she witnessed Edward lifting a butler by the neck, choking him to death, and then letting him fall.

"And here is the fingerprint report for the bottle that may have contained the Benzene Edward was falsely accused of consuming," The police chief handed over the report with squinted eyes as he looked at the trembling woman\'s body.

"No?" Lin Wanruon began to reject everything that had just unfolded before her eyes while shaking her head.

"It\'s fake—" However, she noticed everyone looking at her with disdainful eyes, as if they were judging her for trying to paint Damien as the villain here.

\'Why? Why are they looking at me like this? I am telling the truth. He was behind everything!\' Wanruo was not understanding why everyone was blaming her instead of the real culprit. Her heartbeat was racing and her mind felt isolated as she looked at all the people accusing her.

"Now Wanruo, tell me, why did you arrest Damien Raphael?" The police chief demanded, glaring at the woman with no other excuse left. He poked his finger at her forehead, tapping repeatedly in an attempt to control his frustration.

"Sir, we found the knife that was used to attack Mr. Harrison in Emilia Blake\'s possession," Lin Wanruo explained, her eyes wide with concern as she felt like she was running out of options. She knew she still had one last card to play, a witness against Damien Raphael.

"So?! You idiot! Why arrest Damien Raphael if the knife was found on Emilia Blake?" The police chief felt a headache coming on due to the stupidity of the woman in front of him, who he kept tapping on the forehead with his finger.

" I-i, S-she accepted that he was the one who gave her that knife." Lin Wanruo felt humiliated as her head was hit, as if she were a dumb child, while all the media and reporters captured the moment live as she was reprimanded by the police chief.

At this moment, she realized she had only one hope – to cover her tarnished image. Her last hope was Emilia Blake, who would be her vocal witness.

"Fine, bring her here. Where is she?" Seeing Lin Wanruo\'s eyes turning watery, the police chief stopped as he did not want to upset her family further. He gestured towards the other police officers to bring Emilia Blake to meet him.

"....."

"....."

All the police officers standing there looked at each other before glancing at the policewoman, whose head was bowed down in humiliation from what had just happened.

"What? I asked, where is she? Bring her here!" The police chief, seeing that none of the police officers were giving a proper answer, shouted towards all of them in frustration. He noticed that all of the police officers were looking towards Lin Wanruo. He turned to her and asked, "Wanruo, tell me, where is Emilia Blake?"

"I... I sent her to the police station," Lin Wanruo said, wiping away her tears with her wrist as she slowly lifted her eyes to look at the chief.

\'Fucking idiot!\' The police chief was already feeling his anger bubbling up, but he managed to swallow it down and maintain his composure for the cameras. He warned Lin Wanruo, "IF WE DON\'T FIND EMILIA BLAKE BY MORNING, BE PREPARED TO FACE SUSPENSION!"
