Chapter 2117
“There’s no greater an ingrate than her. Clara used to be the one taking her around, playing with her when they were kids. And now that she’s grown up, she stabs her own family in the back!”
Unlike his initial indifference to Ivy’s situation, Finn got up on hearing Clara’s name and raced to his room to change into something more presentable. He needed to get his darling daughter out of trouble.
Tessa trailed behind him, not daring to utter a single word.
Could Ivy not keep her nose clean for once? Why did she always have to stir up trouble?
Tessa frowned, her face etched with irritation. Life in this family was hard enough without Ivy repeatedly causing a ruckus.
When Ivy opened her eyes, they were nearing the police station.
“Awake? We need to give our statements,” Balfour explained calmly, brushing her hair back from her forehead.
“Okay…” Ivy’s gaze shifted away, nodding in agreement. She knew she had to cooperate with the police investigation.
“How’d you sleep? Feel any better?” Balfour whispered, helping her sit up.
There were faint lines on Ivy’s cheek from sleeping.
She had not been asleep long, but it had revived her considerably.
Especially with Balfour by her side, she had not dreamed of anything frightening.
