"There’s no way I’m sending a partnership contract to Nexera Enterprise so you can forget partnering with them," Anastasia dered one more time, ignoring their ugly displeased faces.
"You say that the owner of Nexera enterprise is a criminal, but not once was any evidence revealed regarding what they did," one of the shareholders stated.
"I’m still not partnering with them," Anastasia replied.
She nced at Christian Lorenzo, briefly nodding, stood up, and left the meeting room with Leo trodding behind her as she went to her office.
"I can’t help but wonder whom Jack and Robert have been partnering with since they were in charge of thispany for them to think it’s alright to partner with criminals," she mumbled as Leo closed the doors behind him.
"In the past records, it shows that this samepany has partnered with them. Maybe that’s why they think it’s alright to partner with them one more time," Leo reasoned, typing something on his tablet.
Anastasia took a moment to sit down and digest everything.
"That’s right! You have a meeting in the next hour," Leo reminded her and she nodded.
"I’ll clear out this paperwork, then we can leave." She responded.
Leo excused himself, leaving Anastasia to get to work.
While Anastasia continued to work, she received a call from her office telephone.
"What?"
"Mrs. Wace, there are some police officers here to speak with you," Leo replied.
A deep frown formed on Anastasia’s forehead, wondering if it could be the officers she’d sent to Michelle the other day.
Checking the date, she remembered she’d asked the officers to arrest Michelle in two days, which was today.
If there are officers outside her office, it could only mean they weren’t the ones she sent to Michelle.
"Bring them in," she responded.
After a few seconds, the door opened with four police officers, wearing a grumpy face with tight lips as if she’dmitted an actual <i>crime. </i>
Leo was behind them, also wondering what they’de for.
"Good day to you, Mrs. Wace. If you don’t mind, we would like to take you to the police station for some questioning," one of them introduced.
"I very much mind," Anastasia responded, ncing between them. "Because I don’t see any IDs."
The officers quickly took out something from their pockets and showed it to them.
"Why do you want to take her to the police station," Leo questioned.
"A case was filed against Mrs Wace here," another officer replied, which earned a frown from both Anastasia and Leo.
"What case?"
"Ms. Michelle Harrison used Mrs. Wace of killing her unborn baby. Since there was no evidence, we can only take Mrs Wace for questioning," the officer responded.
’Come on, Michelle.’ Anastasia thought to herself as she fought back a grin.
"Please,e along now, Mrs Wace."
Anastasia signaled Leo not to question the officers anymore, and she willingly followed them out.
When they got to the police station, Michelle was already there along with her mother, Gary, and Jack. Mr. Theodore Perez was also there, ring at Anastasia as they brought her in.
"Oh wow! You’re also here," Anastasia beamed, loving where this was heading to.
"You bitch! You’re the one that killed my baby! You and your sister," Michelle immediately used. "Where’s she?" Michelle questioned, ncing around and not finding Tracie anywhere.
"I’m right here," Tracie responded.
Anastasia turned to find Tracie behind her.
’Michelle is serious,’ Anastasia thought as she muffled augh.
Michelle even had to involve Tracie.
"You two! You two killed my baby!" Michelle continued to use.
Tracie bumped Anastasia on the elbow as she red at her sister.
"You see what I was telling you? You try to be good and then it backfires on you. If only you’d just left her there to die, maybe she wouldn’t have had the mouth to use us of killing her child."
Anastasia couldn’t help but nod in agreement.
"It was my fault for trying to save her indeed," she agreed.
Theodore’s eyes squinted, wondering what they meant.
"But then, since we’re at the police station, someone must go to jail now right?" Anastasia thought out loud.
"What do you mean by that?" Michelle questioned Anastasia with tears in her eyes.
