Pearl reacted quickly, catching Emily’s wrist and giving her a stern look. “You’re really going to slap me,
Emily?”
“Do you even know how tough it’s been for me since Waldorf Enterprises let me go? Not even a single

The police officer frowned. “She’s right. You won’t be punished severely if you admit it.”
Pearl repeated firmly, “It was really self–defense.”
Emily raised her voice in frustration. “Stop interrogating her, Officer. She’s too stubborn. Just lock her up
Amused, Pearl chuckled. “What if I have the evidence to prove otherwise?”
Emily scoffed as if she’d heard a preposterous joke. “Come on. I’ll eat
