Dwelling on her broken heart drained her stength so much. She was hungry and had no energy to move her ass into the kitchen. Then? So what if she’ll eat what he porpared for her initially?

In contrast to thinking of that shy cat, a devilish idea came to her mind. She took to of the pancake and sent to Fiona

The man behind the desk shook his head and said, “Carter will go.”
The officer with the summe Carter mumbled yes, and the other young officer scratched his head and was not chosen to escort the beautiful Lady

Kristel smiled and ignored all the pairs of eyes that followed her. Well, she expected it already. She intended to charm these police officers to receive a quick. response them after her report
Gratefully, the officers are happy to oblige after they cannot resist her charm.
At this point in her life, she must brace herself for every situation while fighting to fend for herself against Galvin’s fury and Fiona’s constant provocation in her peaceful life
Kristel was sped from bertrain of thought when Cicer Carler announced their arrival at the complaints office that handles cases like hers
“Hey, Neal!Samrone wanted to file a complaint about an accident yesterday.”
“Alright. Let them come in and take a seat.
The police officer and Noah did not spare to look up since he was enossed in the files he studied on his table. This, Kristel was to step inside.
She looked Officer Carter and thanke

Al this modnent, offices Noah’s curiosity shifted to the person standing before his desk. His gaze first landed on a pair of old rose stilettos; slowly, his eyes traveled upward and glued on a well–shaped pair of legs, writing, tight jeans,
Then, les par clashed up a little, and he was correct iguring that the owner of that long–legged penon also had a tiny waist. Moreover, she had above- average size of beasts which wer nd and brider just to look at them
‘Perdertien !
Officer Noah already had a perfect impression of his guest’s body figure. When peeks at the face, his mouth dropsopwide
Chapter 27
The woman standing, before her possessed a goddess beauty he could not compare just to anyone but women who hold the title of the most beautiful faces in the entire world. However, this woman bears an ethereal chunn no man or woman roolil resist…
“Good morning, Officer.” Kristel understood that the man behind the desk started to ogle at her. She snap the man out of his trance
e felt uncomfortable being stared at like this, thus, she had to
on the other hand, Officer Noah felt awloward when stupefied by the breathtaking beauty standing before him.
Can anyone blame him? He was sure that the entire Renoke City Police Department that saw this woman today was also chammed by her beauty.
“Ahem! Good morning. Please take a seat, Miss
Officer Noah did his best to hide his embarrassment. He professionally stared at Kristel.
Kristel, on the other hand, ignored the apparent look on the officers. She purned her lips with a faint smile and took a seat.
“My name is Kristel Pearson.” Kristel glanced at the nameplate on the table.“, officer Noah McCullin?”
“What can do for you, Miss Pearson?
“Twanted to report the driver, who ran away after he hit someon
Kristel gave the license plate mumber and was asked further, answering every question.
“Why are you doing that scene, Miss Tearson?”
“I was in the meeting of the victim.”
Officer Noah carefully makes a record on his computer and fights the urge to look at Kristel, fearing he’d embarrass himself again. His gaze remained on the computer, and his neck started to numb
Miss Pearson, I will try my best to catch the driver as soon as possible. I’ll contact you once there is progress in my investigation. Please leave your contact and the victim’s family so that we can nan further inquiry,”
Kristel gave her contact but was lost momentarily when she had no contact with any of Fiona’s family. Thus, she was forced to provide Calvin’s phone number Officer Noah noticed her browsing though her contacts. Thus, after she gives Galvin details, he asks her about their relationship. He had to record this, too. “Enn. He’s a family acquaintance.“”
“is be your boyfriend?”
“Okay.. Then, please tell me the name of your boyfriend..” officer Noah held his breath, waiting for Kristel’s reply. He knew that his question was out of context in the case. But he was curious if Kristel was in a relationship. She was so beautiful that it was impossible to believe she had no boyfriend.
Are men in this city blind? he thought.
If Kristel was still single, there was something wrong in everyone’s eyes. And if she is in a relationship, then he would regret why he didn’t meet her earlier. “I don’t have a boyfriend.”
Officer Noah almost screamed when he heard her reply.
Kristel, on the other hand, pursed her lips, then masked the uneasiness she felt after she didn’t expose the truth. Anyway, it was the truth that Calvin was not her boyfriend.
But soon, he’ll become her official ex–husband, and it’s not her obligation to announce to the world about her tailed marriage because of a third party who was the victim of the hit–and–run incident.
She doesn’t want the crime story to become a love triangle drama. Abs, it’s an unrequited love story of hers. “Hah, Ridiculous.”
Well, she’ll let time to tell officer Noah after he runs a further investigation.
On the other hand, officer Noah sighed with relief, which took him aback. Why is he so happy? Could it be because Kristel is too attractive to him?
Kristel was even more attractive to him the longer be stated at her lovely face. She was only wearing a simple plain crop top, tight jeans, and heels, but it didn’t hide how well–mannered she was, exuding such elegance in how she spoke and smiled.
“Thank you, Officer Nouls
“Don’t mention it, Miss Pearson.
They shook hands, and Kristel grabbed her hand immediately, she was uncomfortable with the way Officer Noah gently squeezed her hand.
Kristel did not stay any longer. She leaves the building as soon as they’re done with the interview.
Left in his office, Officer Noah studied Kristel’s port. He glanced at his wristwatch and realized his twelve–hour shift schedule was about to end. After saving the data, he clocked out and went to the parking lot

Noah was about to drive away when he noticed Kristel at the Bus Stop. captivating eyes.
Before he knew it, he left his car and took the bus where Kristel had just gone.
