At Beau Chambers' private apartment.

Selena climbed onto Beau's neck and coquettishly asked, "Beau, what did the chief want with you just now?"

Beau, still catching his breath after finishing, lay on the bed for a while before responding, "Don't mention it. The woman you wanted me to deal with is too tricky. She actually has connections to the dark web. Now the chief wants me to release her and follow her arrangements. Because of this, I've been demoted."

"What?"

"I went through so much trouble to get her detained. You must not easily let her go. Even if the murder charge doesn't stick, she's still the prime suspect and must cooperate with the police investigation."

Beau sighed helplessly. "Baby, I've done my best. The chief gave me no way out. Plus, with interference from the dark web, this woman has been released without charges. She just refuses to leave the police station, and I don't know what she's up to. But rest assured, I won't let her off the hook when the opportunity arises."

Selena wrapped herself around him again, coquettishly saying, "Beau, now's our chance. It depends on whether you're willing to do it."

"Tell me, Baby."

"Since there's no evidence to prove she committed murder, why not... let the murderer die in the detention room, then pin all the charges on Freya? After all, right now, besides Freya, there's no one else in the detention room. This way, no matter what she does, she can't clear her name."

Beau was shocked by her words.

"No, no, this is too risky. If it's exposed, not only will I be ruined, but I'll also end up in prison."

"Beau," Selena rubbed against him, her eyes seductive. "This is Princess Lucy's idea. If something goes wrong, Lucy will take the blame for us. And if the police can't accommodate you anymore, I'll talk to Lucy and have you work for the royal family. It's much better than being a lackey at the police station. Besides, that chief doesn't appreciate you, he humiliates you in front of the suspect repeatedly. You really don't need to continue working under him."

Beau was somewhat swayed by her words.

His position in the police station was indeed awkward now. Originally, he had hoped to be promoted to deputy chief this year, but unexpectedly, he was demoted to a mere officer because of this incident. Plus, the chief gave him no face, humiliating him in front of the suspect. He felt quite unhappy about it.

Selena was right. It would be better to have a position in the royal family than to be a lowly officer at the police station.

Moreover, this was Princess Lucy's idea. If something went wrong, with Lucy taking responsibility, what did he have to fear?

Glancing at Selena's collarbone, he grinned lasciviously. "Alright, but you have to take good care of me and make me happy. If you do, I'll agree to anything."

"Ugh."

Selena gave a coquettish moan and directly pushed him down onto the bed.

…

Late at night.

A patrolling officer passed by stubbled man's detention room and opened the door.

He unlocked the door and went in.

A moment later, he yelled nervously.

"The prisoner's gone! The prisoner's gone!"

Soon, everyone was alerted.

Officer Lane, sent by the chief, said, "Don't panic. Just an hour ago, the chief ordered the prisoner to be transferred."

The patrolman's eyes narrowed upon hearing this.

Taking advantage of everyone's distraction, he quickly called Beau.

"Beau, it's bad, Luke Wilson has been transferred, I can't find him."

"What did you say?"

Beau, who was in the midst of an intimate moment with Selena, suddenly jumped up when he received the call.

"It was Officer Lane sent by the chief who said it himself. There shouldn't be any mistake."

Beau quickly hung up the phone and turned to look at the porcelain-white female body on the bed. "Nana, things might be difficult now. Wu Liu has been transferred, and we can't make a move."

"What? How could he suddenly be transferred?" Selena, feeling sore and tired from his antics, said weakly.

"I'm not sure either, but I reckon Luke spilled something. After all, Freya managed to recover all his Snapchat transfer records and conversations with his clients. They're full of evidence of his murders. He's got more than a dozen lives on his hands. That's a capital offense."

"What do we do now? If Luke rats us out, we're finished!" Selena was frantic, ignoring her aches and pains as she clung to Beau's arm. "Beau, you have to figure out a solution. Luke absolutely cannot be left alive."

Beau was at a loss too.

With the chief involved, he had no way to act.

While he had his connections within the police station, he didn't have any at the central police station. And the fact that Luke had been transferred left him feeling uneasy.

Though he hadn't committed murder himself, as a police officer colluding with criminals and covering up their crimes, once exposed, he wouldn't escape death.

"Don't worry. You concealed your information when you contacted Wu Liu. He won't know who you are. Plus, you used a black card to transfer money to him at the time. Even if the police want to investigate, they won't find anything about you for a while."

"Right, I used Lily's number to contact Luke. What does it have to do with me?" Selena comforted herself.

Ever since the day Lily caused a scene at the studio and threatened to expose her, Selena had her confined.

She didn't expect Lily to be so stubborn; no matter what threats or enticements she used, she refused to talk.

She had no choice but to keep her locked up.

Originally, she didn't want to kill her, but Lucy insisted that leaving her alive would be a disaster, so she had no choice but to bribe Luke to kill her.

Who would have thought that Luke was such a lecher? He was too brutal when it came to women, and he even went so far as to first rape and then kill Lily, dumping her body in the scrapyard.

Lily's death was truly tragic, and Selena was frightened when she saw the photos.

"Nana, don't worry. We're in this together now. I'll do everything I can to suppress this matter, but you have to promise me that you'll speak up for me in front of Princess Lucy."

Selena wrapped herself around him and said, "Beau, I knew you genuinely loved me. Don't worry, I'll handle things with Princess Lucy."

"Good, it's not in vain that I've been so good to you."

Soon, the waves of pleasure rose again.

The next day.

Queen Sally paced back and forth in the hotel room, occasionally glancing at the clock on the wall.

It was almost nine o'clock, but Freya hadn't arrived yet. Did this girl really intend to stand her up?

Losing patience, she pulled out her phone and dialed Freya's number, but a strange male voice answered.

It wasn't Bradley's...

Who was Freya with so early in the morning?

"Who are you, and why are you answering Freya's phone?"

Queen Sally asked with a frown.

"This is Derry Police Station. Miss Lawson is under criminal detention by our investigation team due to her involvement in a murder case. All of the suspect's personal belongings are being held by our station."

A murder case?

Criminal detention?
