The officer, handcuffs in hand, cut her off mid-sentence and clamped the cold metal around Sophie Baker's wrists, making her body jerk suddenly as she turned her head to look at Melody Baker, pleading for help.
"Mom, save me, mom..."
"Sophie, what on earth is going on?"
Melody Baker panicked too, remembering the earlier scene at the Campbell Family's doorstep and feeling a sudden sinking sensation in her heart.
"We'll talk about it at the Police Station, don't waste any more time."
The police officer didn't give the mother and daughter a chance to argue and directly escorted Sophie into the police car.
Standing pale-faced, Melody Baker watched as Sophie was taken away; her legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground.
"How... how could this happen..."
Leaking business secrets was a crime that could mean prison.
Sophie was only 26, with a bright future ahead of her, and she had just had the opportunity to join Campbell corp; how could she end up in prison?
