NovelUpdateChapter 750: Inside, Blaine stood conversing urgently with several police officers, his expression visibly tense. Spotting her arrival, Blaine quickly excused himself and approached, concern evident in his voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Sadie, what are you doing here?" he asked earnestly, worry shading his eyes.
This wasn't where Sadie should be at all.
Sadie was momentarily taken aback. Her gaze flicked rapidly between Blaine and the group of officers standing nearby. Confusion clouded her thoughts-what exactly was going on? Just then, the police officers approached her. Leading the group was a seasoned officer with a square jaw and a stern, unyielding gaze. He studied Sadie intently for a moment before pulling out a clear evidence bag, holding it up for all to see. Inside the bag was a peculiar-looking pendant stained with dark red-a pendant Sadie didn't recognize in the slightest.
"Ms. Hudson, we found this item on the victim, Sutton Wall. Initial investigations show that this pendant belongs to an exclusive designer handbag-registered specifically under your name." He paused deliberately, eyes narrowing slightly, sharp and piercing.

Sadie stared blankly at the pendant in the bag, disbelief flooding her senses. Her mind raced, her heartbeat accelerating as she struggled to comprehend the situation unfolding before her. This was absurd. She had never seen that pendant—it wasn't hers at all! Noah quietly entered the station, just in tto overhear the officer's startling accusation. He froze in place. His face remained unreadable behind his silver mask, but the air around him grew undeniably colder. Shock pierced through him like ice. Sadie... accused of murder? Noah furrowed his brows as he stepped forward. Clutched in the officer's hand was an evidence bag, and Noah could instantly tell what was inside—the pendant definitely belonged to the limited-edition handbag Hailey had recently bought. Why was it on Sutton's body? And what role did Sadie play in this? Noah's face set into a grim line, yet he remained silent. He had a gut feeling that something was off, and he needed tto piece it all together. Without saying anything, he turned and left the police station.
Sadie watched the man wearing the silver mask. His retreat was marked by a chilling aloofness. When had he shown up? Why was he here? But now wasn't the tto ponder these questions.

She faced the officer again, aware that the situation was not in her favor. The evidence seemed to point directly at her but she was sure the pendant didn't belong to her. Explaining now might seem like she was scrambling to prove her innocence.
Taking a deep breath, Sadie collected herself. She looked the middle-aged officer in the eye and said evenly, "I'm ready to cooperate with your with investigation. However, before we head to the interrogation room, I need a moment to discuss surgent business matters with my colleague."
