Aurora could clearly sense the hostility coming from him.But she didn’t react. A gentle smile remained on her face.“Officers, I understand this situation is difficult for you, but I only want to help resolve the case as soon as possible.“If we can get to the bottom of this, it benefits everyone. It’s better than letting things drag on.”The two exchanged a look.In the end, the more easygoing officer let out a quiet sigh.“Alright. We’ll make an exception and allow you to be involved.”Aurora wasn’t entirely surprised; this was within her expectations.She nodded sincerely. “Thank you. If we find anything, we’ll inform you immediately.”Hearing that, even the hot-tempered officer’s expression softened slightly.It was, in a way, a gesture of respect on her part.With that, the two sides split up to continue their own lines of investigation.Aurora called Ian, asking him to come to the ceremony site.When Ian picked up, he sounded surprised. He hadn’t expected her to reach out now, l

He cleared his throat.“Alright, that’s enough. Now’s not the time to catch up. Let’s finish what we came here to do. Dinner’s on me tonight.”“Got it, boss.”Ian wiped his face, still sniffling. “It’s not just me. Henry and Hannah miss you too.“They didn’t want to bother you, but they’ve been asking me about the studio, trying to find out what’s going on.”He let out a helpless sigh.“We’ve been too easygoing. Didn’t expect things to turn out like this… some things really catch you off guard. We should’ve been more careful.”Hearing their names, Aurora felt a quiet stir of emotion.When everything happened, the two of them had gone silent. She’d assumed they’d already moved on.She hadn’t expected them to still be asking after the studio through Ian.The thought left her unexpectedly moved.What had she done to deserve a team like this?“Invite them tonight too. But for now, we focus on the site. There might be something the police missed.”“Understood.”This time, Ian answered witho

At that, George’s composure cracked, panic flashing through him.He hadn’t expected his partner to take it so seriously.He hurried to smooth things over, forcing a conciliatory smile. “Come on, don’t be like that. You know me. I was just joking. I’ve always had a sharp tongue, that’s all.“And besides, she didn’t exactly handle things well before. Why shouldn’t I say something?”His partner didn’t argue and just gave him a firm warning.“Say whatever you want in private. But if that gets said out loud where someone else can hear it, I won’t be able to cover for you.”That was enough to make George falter.His gaze shifted uneasily, the message landing. His partner was looking out for him.Because people like that, especially the wealthy, never forget.They held grudges and saw things through to the end.That was exactly why his partner kept reminding him.He knew George wasn’t a bad person, just careless with his words and never thinking about the consequences.He’d been lucky so far.

“So why go looking for trouble with her? We just do our job and leave it at that.”George froze.At first, he’d thought his partner was wrong.He was a police officer—his job was to serve the public.Why should he ever back down in front of power?Shouldn’t he be the one standing up to it?But hearing it laid out like that, something shifted.Aurora hadn’t broken any laws. She was simply doing what she was supposed to do.If he pushed it further and tried to take action against her over nothing, it wouldn’t hold up.A flicker of hesitation crossed his face. He didn’t quite know how to look at her now.His partner spoke again, voice steady.“Think about what we’re actually responsible for. Don’t waste time on someone who isn’t part of the problem.“And right now, she’s helping move the case forward. That works in our favor.”“Yeah. I guess it does.”George’s attitude shifted quickly, the earlier tension easing.His partner was right—Aurora hadn’t done anything wrong. There was no reason

Every time they were out on a case, they put themselves on the line.Their job was to serve the public.Aurora respected that deeply.But respect didn’t mean she would let herself be treated like someone easy to push around.It wasn’t a pedestal for anyone to stand on.She had said her piece—how George chose to take it was up to him.His partner clearly understood. He nudged George again, a quiet warning not to go too far.Aurora didn’t owe them an explanation, and she certainly didn’t need to stand there justifying herself.At the end of the day, they were equals in this situation.If anything, they were the ones meant to serve her; she was the victim here.So why approach her like she was under interrogation?George hesitated, unsure what to say.He opened his mouth, then closed it again, swallowing whatever questions he had.“Alright. I get it. I was just curious how you planned to look for evidence.”This time, there was no hostility in his eyes, just genuine curiosity.Aurora coul
