Chapter 467 You Wasted A Full Five Minutes? Is This Your Way of Doing Things?
Meanwhile, in the police station's interrogation room.
Laura, who had been taken away by the police, insisting that she hadn't poisoned Violet, but the police had the original deleted video surveillance, so she had no way to argue.
But Laura had been at JK for so many years. Without any skills, she couldn't become the chief senior designer.
So, as she watched the video the police played for her, she remained completely calm and said with great composure, "I didn't do it. Even if it shows me, it wasn't my intention to poison Ms. Devereux. Besides, I want to see my lawyer. You have no right to detain me."
The investigating officer looked at her sternly. "Ms. Patton, with such clear video evidence, do you still want to deny it?"
Laura smiled and said, "Deny it? I said it wasn't my intention."
The officer looked at her. She was more cunning than he had imagined and knew the law well. She knew how to use legal advantages to exonerate herself. "So what was your intention?"
Laura smiled, her voice calm and composed. "I...never wanna frame Ms. Devereux. I was forced to poison her. Otherwise, why would I give up my career as a designer to poison someone? Wouldn't that ruin myself?"
"Should we believe you? You need to provide evidence."
"I have evidence, and I truly didn't want to harm Ms. Devereux. I was coerced," Laura continued.
"Who coerced you?"
"My colleague Fanny. She has been threatening me to help her kill Ms. Devereux because Ms. Devereux is about to go to Elysium Springs with Mr. Green for a design exhibition, and Fanny's name isn't on the participant list. So she wanted to kill Ms. Devereux and take her place."
"Without evidence; how can we believe you?" The investigating officer needed evidence.
"Alright," Laura said calmly, "Call my attorney; the evidence is with her."
Laura had long known that this day would come, so she had prepared in advance.
She had used Fanny's voice to create a synthesized recording.
Fanny was now in a vegetative state, unable to speak or have any awareness, and she would never wake up.
Laura had no fear of being exposed.
The police naturally didn't fully believe her, but to avoid wrongfully accusing anyone, they decided to trust her for now and called her lawyer to bring the evidence.
Fifteen minutes later, Laura's lawyer arrived with the recording.
After listening to it, the police had no choice but to let her lawyer bail her out temporarily, but they would continue to investigate, especially the authenticity of the recording.
Laura was successfully bailed out and went home, but she couldn't return to JK.
Brady was currently too busy to deal with her. If he found out she was bailed out, he would definitely arrange for his lawyer to cancel her bail.
Inside JK Company.
Violet sat at her desk for a while beforegoing to Olivia's office.
Olivia had been waiting in her office for a while.
Seeing Violet push the door and come in, she immediately said with disdain and anger, "Ms. Devereux, don't you have any sense of time? I just called you to come over immediately, and you wasted five minutes? Is this your way of doing things?"
Violet knew Olivia was one of Ava's people and couldn't afford to anger her, so she didn't retort.
