This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 863

Chapter 863 Unable to Argue

She feared that if their gazes met, she would have to experience the terrifying situation again.

Since the others focused on the video recording, they did not notice Toby and Anya’s little interaction.

Ten minutes later, the video ended.

Soon after, everyone’s attention was back on Anya. Whereby the atmosphere became severe again.

The video recording didn’t contain any portion indicating that Toby and Sonia conspired with the man. Such an illustration meant that the statement given by the man about him being hired by the woman in the wheelchair was the truth.

Anya was the woman in the wheelchair and the one who snatched Sonia’s gown in the shop.

In that case, it was apparent who the real culprit actually was. It was Anya.

”Ms. Steinfeld, is there anything more you’d like to say?” the officer asked Anya sternly with a pen in his hand. Anya was terrified as she clenched her hands into fists, unable to say a single word in her defense.

What more could she say?

Now that she knew that her wrongdoings had been exposed, she would look like a joke if she continued arguing.

What she didn’t expect was how useless the man was. He confessed to everything after being tortured by Toby.

Didn’t he care about his girlfriend at all?

The officers stopped questioning her since they had solid proof on hand when she remained silent. Moving forward, they would prepare a case summary and other relevant procedures, including deciphering Anya’s motive and letting her sign some documents, among other things.

However, Toby suddenly spoke, ”I’m afraid this case isn’t as simple as a robbery and the malicious acts that resulted in personal property damage.”

The officers drafting the records immediately stopped their work on hand and stared at him when he suddenly spoke up.

”President Fuller, what do you mean by that?” one of the officers inquired.

Toby pursed his thin lips and responded, ”As you all have seen in the video recording, this is the first time she used an innocent person to threaten the man. This action involves the use of threats and intimidation, which is unlawful. Secondly, as this is the first time she hired that man, how could she complete a background check on that man in such a short time frame? This illustrates that someone with considerable influence backs her. Finally, her identity isn’t as simple as you think. Her information registered in the census is fake. All of you should suspect why she faked her identity. Could it be because she’s a spy?”

As soon as they heard what Toby said, they were stunned, and their expression was solemn.

Indeed, they wouldn’t have thought of it if not for President Fuller’s reminder.

They really should investigate her. If she were a spy, they would have done an excellent job stopping her from executing her actions.

Even if she wasn’t a spy, hiding her true identity seemed suspicious as people normally wouldn’t do so.

Or was she a wanted fugitive?

Anyhow, they would have to look into Anya’s background thoroughly since they would be held accountable if anything happened.

Anya, situated on the other side of the table, felt like white noise filled her mind; it was as if there was an explosion as she listened to Toby exposing her identity. Almost immediately, an incredible feeling of fear fell upon her, making her breath come out in short gasps while it caused her to lose all color on her face simultaneously.

Toby knew that her identity was fake. But, was he also aware that she…

As Anya thought of that possibility, she felt a wave of despair.

Initially, she thought that she had done an excellent job hiding her identity. She never thought that Toby was able to realize that her identity was fake based on the information that he obtained.

At this moment, Anya regretted it.

She regretted being hot-headed to the point where she hired someone to snatch the gown just to get back at Sonia. Since she couldn’t get the dress, she couldn’t stand the thought of someone else having it. That was the reason why she ruined the gown.

If she hadn’t done that, Toby wouldn’t have realized her fake identity.

Toby felt more confident that she was hiding her true identity when he saw how distressed she became.

After some consideration, one of the senior police officers looked at Anya and said, ”Ms. Steinfeld, you can’t leave the police station since you are currently one of the key suspects. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.”

Anya’s eyes lowered as she remained reticent.

She was well aware of the situation. No matter what she said, she wouldn’t be able to leave the police station.

Toby left the interview room without a backward glance at her.

Once he was outside, he gave instructions to the police officers who exited the room after him. ”Please keep a close eye on the suspect and report to me immediately if anything happens.”

”Yes, President Fuller,” they replied.

Toby merely nodded and quickly walked toward the lounge without saying anything.

Sonia was still sleeping without realizing that Toby had already returned from meeting Anya.

He walked to the front of the couch and squatted to look at Sonia, who was sleeping soundly. He gave a slight smile as he gently removed the blanket on her before carrying her in his arms and walking out of the room.

Along the way, the police officers looked at them, especially the female officers who were envious of Sonia. Not long after, they left the police station.

When Sonia woke up, it was already morning.

The bright light overwhelmed her as she opened her eyes.

As she felt uncomfortable, she frowned and closed her eyes. Then, when she was finally accustomed to the lights after a while, she opened her eyes again.

As she looked at the familiar ceiling, the bed she was on, and its counterpane, she was confused and dazed.

What’s going on?
