Chapter: 828
The policeman asked the same question again. Luckily, Norah possessed a good memory and calmly repeated her previous statement.
"Does the deceased individual in the private room have any connection to you?"
The policeman suddenly posed a pointed question. Maintaining the same composed expression, Norah calmly replied, “No. They were murdered by their buddies."
Her voice quivered slightly as she recounted, "We were hiding inside.
When they entered, you just arrived."
Bowing her head, she confessed, "That's the extent of my knowledge regarding that evening. Is there anything else you need? I'm willing to cooperate."
Recalling from previous investigations that Norah, being a doctor, wouldn't typically exhibit much fear towards the deceased, the police believed she was now acting normally and closed his notebook and stated, “Alright, thank you for your cooperation, Miss Wilson."
Throughout the entire exchange, Kason remained silent, leaving with the police without uttering a word.
Watching Kason's figure disappear into the distance, Norah retrieved her mobile phone and noticed a message from him.
"See you next time," the text read.
"The police will take your statement later. Refuse to disclose your involvement as per your last statement. Display some apprehension when needed." It was the last message he sent.
He deliberately reminded her and accompanied the police, but didn't speak to her.
"Understood," Norah texted back before closing her phone.
Despite the situation, she understood that she remained a friend of Kason.
Susanna set up a group chat for the four girls. When Norah returned to the office after her police interview, she discovered the other three had also been questioned.
Alice sent her a private message, assuring her that she had handled everything with the police smoothly.
Before today, Norah had been anxious about the police, but after her meeting with Kason and reading Alice's message, she felt reassured that there was nothing to worry about.
With Kason's support, she knew she'd be okay.
Back at work, Norah felt an unusual dynamic between two colleagues.
A female doctor noticed Norah's confusion and leaned in to share some gossip.
"You were out yesterday and busy today, so you might not have heard, but Dr. Padilla and Dr. Austin are dating now!"
The female doctor's eyes were filled with envy. "Dr. Padilla is so attractive, and he's soon heading to Concord Hospital for an exchange.
His career is on a great course. All the female doctors in other departments see him as a great catch. It's surprising that Dr. Austin won his heart so quickly."
Indeed, the odd vibe in the office was due to the new couple. Norah glanced up and caught them exchanging tender looks. If they weren't at work, it seemed they'd embrace and kiss right then and there.
