Chapter 389

    The police showed up quickly to get the details and took Eden to the station for more questions. Since ra was involved, she had to go too.


    Eden had been in the middle of a shopping spree when the cops approached her, and she found the whole situation incredibly humiliating. When she realized ra was the one who called them, she lost it.


    "ra, you witch! How dare you call the police on me!"


    ra sat nearby, calm and collected. "I''m not negotiating. I want an apology." Eden''s face twisted with anger. "An apology? To you? Not happening!"


    ra''s expression hardened, and she turned to the officer. "I''m not negotiating. She needs to apologize today."


    Eden pulled out a card, offering, "I''ll give you a hundred grand, but no apology."


    The officer looked between them, realizing neither was short on cash. Carefully, he said, "Ms. Eden, you were in the wrong. If Ms. ra won''t ept money, you''ll have to apologize to leave."


    Eden felt her scalp prickling with frustration-it was the most embarrassed she''d ever been. If the Ferguson family found out, she''d be in serious trouble. With the household already tense, she didn''t want more drama. She red at ra with defiance.


    "ra, think carefully. If you don''t back down today, I''ll make your life hell."


    ra found it funny; any fa?ade of civility between them was long gone.


    Simon, standing behind them, chimed in, "I called Dn. Eden, stop this nonsense."


    Hearing Dn''s name almost made Eden jump out of her seat. "Brother, Dn''s busy! How could you disturb him?"


    "Do you really want to keep this up? You''re going to cause real trouble. I''ve already told Dn everything."


    Eden flushed with anger, her hands clenched into fists. Tears welled up, convinced her brother had been charmed by ra.


    "You think I''m scared? Once Dn''s here, he''ll set things straight."


    Dn showed up half an hourter, having left his meeting for Eden. Simon had pulled ra into a nearby room, speaking quietly.


    "If Dn''s firm, just apologize. Eden''s spoiled, and Dn lets her get away with


    It."


    Through the ss, ra saw Dn arrive. Even in a wheelchair, his presence wasmanding, with several bodyguards by his side.


    As soon as Eden saw him, her eyes filled with tears. "Dn."


    She rushed over, kneeling beside him. "I really don''t want to apologize. You have to help me, Dn."


    Dn turned to the officer. "What''s going on?"


    The officer, sensing Dn''s importance, quickly exined, "She allegedly vandalized someone''s car."


    Eden''s eyes widened in shock. "Vandalized? I didn''t do that today. How dare you use me! Dn, I swear I didn''t do it. If I''m lying, I''ll never see you again!"


    For Eden, it was a serious vow. She was terrible at lying, especially to Dn, who she feared losing. Dn''s voice was cold as he instructed a bodyguard, "Check the surveince footage from that time."


    The bodyguard moved quickly, making a call, and the footage was sent over almost immediately. He leaned in, speaking respectfully, "Mr. Dn, Ms. Eden didn''t vandalize any car."
