Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 96

Chapter96

Wilfred’s wounds on his face and head had already been bandaged.

He sat on a chair, his gaze fixed on Josephine like a nail.

When Zachery was being put into the police car, Josephine suddenly became clear–headed.

At this moment, she spoke to the police in an organized manner:

“It was Wilfred who played dirty first and tried to assault me. The hallway surveillance at the music restaurant can prove it, and there should be traces of incense left in the V1 private room. You can check.”

“After that, Wilfred publicly insulted and verbally abused both me and Zachery in front of everyone at the hotel, causing us serious psychological harm.”

Shane retorted, “Ms. Copeland’s statement does not hold.”

“First of all, in the surveillance footage from the music restaurant hallway, our client does not appear. Ms. Copeland was unsteady on her feet, which was her own behavior.”

Josephine immediately said, “I can take a blood test.”

Shane ignored her and continued to argue loudly:

“Our client witnessed his wife checking into a hotel room with another man, which caused him psychological distress. His words may have been harsh, but he did not cause any physical or psychological harm to Ms. Copeland or Mr. Maynard.”

“The definition of psychological harm is that the victim exhibits suicidal behavior or mental instability. Ms. Copeland is clear–headed, calm, and assertive, which does not fit the definition of psychological harm at all.”

“Secondly, Mr. Maynard deliberately destroyed someone else’s marriage and, without being harmed by our client, injured our client, which constitutes the crime of intentional injury under criminal law.”

Declan came over and exaggeratedly added:

“We have the medical report. It’s a serious injury, punishable by three to ten years in prison.”

The police were very polite to them: “Rest assured, gentlemen, we will handle this case impartially.”

Josephine clenched her fists in frustration.

Wilfred’s group

of friends included unscrupulous lawyers, heirs, and several children of high–ranking officials.

When nothing was happening, they each did their own thing.

But when something happened, they would use each other.

For their own interests, they could cooperate seamlessly as a group.

At this moment, Josephine felt afraid for the first time.

Wilfred and Shane were determined not to let Zachery go.

She had no power, no influence, and no connections–she couldn’t get Zachery out of this

mess.

She couldn’t even get Zachery, who was being detained, out of the police station…

Meanwhile, in the interrogation room.

“Name?”

“Zachery.”

“ID number?”

“901XXXX”

“Occupation?”

“Which one are you asking about?” Zachery replied unhurriedly.

“How many do you have? Just tell me your main job.”

“I have several main jobs. Do you want to hear them all?”

The interrogating officer was getting irritated.

“Don’t try to change the subject. Do you know who you hit?”

“I hit Wilfred! If Josephine hadn’t stopped me, I probably would have killed him.”

“Very good. With that statement, the charge of intentional injury is established. Forget about your freedom.”

Zachery just smiled.

The officer registering information glanced at the interrogating officer.

With a look, he signaled that this man’s composure was not simple.

Better not convict him just yet–who knows what instructions might come from above…

At that moment, a black BMW 7 Series pulled up in front of the police station.

Helena noticed a crowd gathering and her eyes darted around.

She pulled Belinda, who was eager to get out and look for her father, onto her lap.

“Mommy knows that Josephine hurt Belinda’s daddy. Belinda feels heartbroken and angry, doesn’t she?”

Belinda nodded vigorously.

Just thinking about her beloved father being beaten made her nose turn red.

Helena coaxed gently, “As long as Belinda does what Mommy says, you can stand up for Daddy yourself.”

When the black BMW came to a stop.

The onlookers outside, like dogs catching a scent, immediately sensed gossip in the air.
