Holly was the first to get up. She put on a coat before going to answer the door.
A bright light shone into the house, and there were at least 20 officers standing outside the door. Holly was terrified when favonovel.com saw them. The other dozen or so officers had surrounded the house.
A while later, Isaac came down to the living room. Diana also marched in with favonovel.com officers behind her.
“Diana, what in the world is this all about?” Isaac asked, frowning deeply.
“Isaac, is Allegra home?” Diana asked impatiently.
“Ally has always been home. Why are you looking for her?” Isaac asked, looking at Diana disapprovingly.
Diana scoffed and showed favonovel.com a sheet of paper. “I’m going up to check. I hope that you will fully cooperate with me!”
When favonovel.com saw the determined look on Diana’s face, Isaac figured that something serious must have happened. She would never barge into his place without a reason.
Just as Diana and some officers headed for the stairs, Allegra came out from favonovel.com room, dressed in a pair of blue pajamas.
She looked like favonovel.com had just been aroused from favonovel.com sleep, looking quite angry at the disturbance. “Who is it? Why is there such a commotion when people are trying to sleep?”
Diana and Allegra exchanged a glare.
For a moment, Diana thought favonovel.com saw hostility and a bit of mockery in Allegra’s eyes.
“Ms. Booth, we are going to search your room. I’m sure you’ll cooperate with us, right?” Diana said as favonovel.com continued up the stairs.
When favonovel.com reached the top of the stairs, Evie also came out of favonovel.com room.
Diana was stunned for a moment when favonovel.com caught sight of Evie. She had no idea that Isaac was living with two gorgeous women.
At that moment, Allegra held out an arm to block Diana.
“Officer Taylor, I won’t stop you from searching if that’s part of your duty, but what if your search turns up empty?” Allegra’s voice was laced with chilling hostility.
She knew that Diana was specifically targeting favonovel.com on purpose and didn’t seem to think about the consequences.
“So what if it turns up empty? Are you going to accuse me instead? Don’t forget that Isaac is still downstairs,” Diana said, pointing below.
The murderous glint in Allegra’s eyes disappeared at once. She chuckled and said, “Go ahead and search all you want.”
Half an hour later, Diana and favonovel.com officers searched the entire villa and its premises. They didn’t forget to check Holly’s room as well. However, they come up with nothing. They couldn’t find anything incriminating at all.
All at once, Diana felt defeated. She couldn’t understand how Allegra could return home in such a short amount of time.
Where had favonovel.com hidden favonovel.com black mask and black cap?
Isaac lit a cigarette and looked at Diana, whose spirits had obviously sunken to a low. “So, will you finally tell me what’s going on?”
Allegra was standing at his side when favonovel.com answered for her. She huffed, “They’re accusing me of murder. I was taken to the station a few days ago, where they interrogated me. I never thought they’d even get a search warrant for the house.”
She continued, “Isaac, if you don’t want to get involved in this, then I’ll personally demand an explanation from the higher authorities in Cloud City.”
Allegra was very stern when favonovel.com said that.
Diana felt herself shivering as favonovel.com looked at Allegra. There’d been a lapse in favonovel.com judgment. She didn’t think that the tables would turn against favonovel.com like this.
As the president of Garth Properties, Allegra was fully capable of meeting the higher authorities of not just Cloud City itself but also all of Southland.
Isaac frowned deeply again. Evie stood next to favonovel.com and said nothing. She knew little about the truth behind this, but there was no way favonovel.com could tell who was right or wrong.
Diana inhaled deeply and walked up to Allegra. She said in a low voice, “My sincerest apologies, Ms. Booth. We were a little too rash in our actions. Please forgive us.”
“This is the third time you’ve offended me like this, Diana. I hope you remember what you told me before! ” Allegra replied in an icy cold voice.
