Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 282

"Enough!" Sydney rubbed her forehead and her tone of voice was impatient. "You should worry if you'll be detained instead.”

"Detained?” Kate's expression changed in an instant. "Why would I be detained? I already came to the police station!"

"Are you just playing dumb or stupid?" Layden crossed his arms and gave her a cold gaze. "You hired someone to cast horror images on Sydney's window, which is a crime. The offense of criminal intimidation."

“No... What do you mean by intimidation? I didn't intimidate her! I only wanted to scare her! It's a prank at best!" Kate exclaimed in panic.

When Sydney saw her reaction, she knew that Kate was speaking the truth. She did not know that it was a crime.

She had met many ignorant people throughout her life, but never to this extent.

Sydney looked at Kate as though she had given up on her.

"Officer, please tell her if she has committed a crime."

"Sure." The policeman, who was silent all along, stepped forward. "Ms. Morgan, you indeed committed the crime of criminal intimidation. If you only did it once, then it could be a prank. Since you repeatedly did it, you clearly had the intention to intimidate her."

"Exactly. Especially since it's in the middle of the night. A lot of people might suffer from these horror images. Some of them might fall, and some might even get mentally ill." Cayden looked at Kate as though he was looking at a corpse.

Julien glanced at Sydney's abdomen and added. "And Sydney is also pregnant. Your intimidation can cause her a miscarriage. Can you bear the consequences?”

That was his child, and only Sydney had the right to decide if it should stay. Others had no right.

Kate should be glad that the child is fine, or he would make the entire Morgan family suffer.

However, now that Sydney did not go for an abortion, did she plan to keep it?

When Julien thought about that, he felt a sense of joy and anticipation.

Their child must be adorable.

More importantly, she might get back together with him for the child’s sake.

"I didn't intend to do that!” Kate violently shook her head and took a few steps backward, fear written all over her face. "I only wanted to scare her. I didn't intend to make her mentally ill or cause her a miscarriage. Moreover, she’s perfectly fine now!"

Kate pointed at Sydney. “Look at her! She’s fine! So why do you say that I have committed a crime?"

Layden frowned and was about to say something.

Sydney sneered and spoke before he could, "In this world, some people who committed crimes will think that what they did isn't considered a crime since their victims are fine. Officer, what kind of punishment will she get?"

The policeman gave it some thought and said, "What she said was somewhat correct. Even though she committed criminal intimidation, the harm done was not much. Her punishment should not be too heavy, and she will not have to go to jail. She might just be detained. The prosecution office will decide on the detention period."

When Julien heard that, he narrowed his eyes.

Sydney nodded. "Sure. Then just lock her up for now. Let me know when the final decision is made."

"Of course," the policeman replied with a smile and approached Kate.

Kate did not want to be detained, so she retreated and even thought of running away.

Just as Kate took a step backward, Cayden stretched out his leg.

Kate tripped on it and fell to the ground, giving the policeman a good opportunity to restrain her.

Kate knew that she could no longer run and her face was pale as paper.

She quickly glanced at Sydney and said, ’ Sydney, I made a mistake. Please, please just let me go. I don't want to be detained. Please..."

Kate cried her heart out and she looked pathetic.

However, none of them took pity on her.

Sydney looked at her with indifference. "If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? We’re all adults.

Since you're already an adult, you should be responsible for your actions. I don't think you know what you did wrong, but are just afraid of detention. You begged me because of that, didn't you? You didn't think you did anything wrong, am I right?"
