Chapter 278 Leo York

The entire area was in an uproar.

The police didn’t find any trace of silicon!

But Melanie had been so sure that almost everyone was deceived by her! Was she trying to buy time?

Or maybe she had another partner in crime? Or did she have some other goal?

“That’s impossible! I didn’t get it wrong!”

Melanie was riled up. She couldn’t believe that this was how things were going to end.

She was very confident with her sense of smell. Unless her body was injured, her sense of smell had

never failed her.

“Stop arguing, Miss Melanie! From now on, you have the right to remain silent. Everything you say can

and will be used against you at court!”

The high–ranking officer continued, “According to our analysis, there’s no silicon on the taser gun at all.

And the grip of the taser is also not made of silicon. If you maintain your argument, the court will

believe that you are trying to avoid taking responsibility for your crime!”

“If the material isn’t made of silicon, then there’s no mistake about it!” Melanie narrowed her eyes and

said with full confidence. “There’s definitely silicon residue on it!”

“Take her away!”

The high–ranking officer couldn’t be bothered anymore.

The officer behind him immediately held Melanie and was about to take her away. Jeffrey stopped

them, but before he could speak, the high–ranking officer intimidated him.

“Mr. Jeffrey, and everyone here, please calm down. Miss Melanie is this case’s primary suspect, and

we have the right to take her away for interrogation. You’re all her friends, but if any of you try to step in

and stop us from doing our job, all of this will be used against her!”

The high–ranking officer cut off whatever Jeffrey wanted to say. Cyrus moved a little, but in the end, he

didn’t try to stop them.

Even if they knew that Melanie wasn’t wrong, they didn’t know what went wrong. If it really affected

Melanie’s interrogation later, she would be taking the brunt of it. Those who cared about her didn’t dare

to make any sudden movements.

Very quickly, the cars arrived near the dock.

Melanie furrowed her brows. She knew that things were getting very complicated. From the beginning,

when the serial number proved that the taser belonged to the Gibsons, to her fingerprints found on it.

And now, she failed to save herself. Who was trying to kill her?

Once she was at the station, it would be even harder to get her out.

If the man pulling the strings wanted her to become a suspect that couldn’t speak, then there would be

someone in the station waiting to kill her. It would be difficult for both Jeffrey and Cyrus to save her…

Melanie felt chills down her spine, not knowing what she was going to face next. At this time, the police

vehicle suddenly screeched to a halt.

There was a commotion outside. The officers that were holding her all got down from the car with their

hands

on their weapons.

“You can’t take Miss Melanie off the island!”

Melanie heard someone speak in the official language of her country fluently. However, she had never

heard

that man’s voice.

Very quickly, someone went over to negotiate. The man said, “This is the real report of the test result!

The one

you have is a fake!”

The high–ranking officer walked over, and the man said, “He is one of you. Let him personally tell you

what

happened exactly! Cough… If I was even one moment late, he would have died already!”

Melanie sensed that there was a chance to turn things around and she quickly got out of the car. She

didn’t

know when it started raining outside. She had been so anxious that she didn’t notice.

But the moment she got out of the car, the rain suddenly stopped.

She raised her head in shock, and saw a handsome, lean man holding an umbrella, shielding her from

the rain..

“You’ll be alright now. There are traces of silicon on that taser gun. You didn’t get it wrong.” The man

spoke in a soft voice, but his words were warm. After he finished, he started coughing again.

Melanie didn’t have the time to figure out the man’s identity, because she noticed an officer who was all

bloodied on a stretcher. He was the officer that took the evidence off the island to be analyzed earlier.

The officer said in pain, “Sir! This is the real result! I’d just gotten into the car with this when someone

hit me.

They were trying to stop me from reporting back to the island. If Mr. York didn’t save me, they would

have silenced me already…”

Mr. York…?

Melanie raised her head to look at the man holding the umbrella.
