Although Lola was grateful that her husband was also invited to the station by the chief of police, she was heartbroken by his cold behaviour towards her.
Brian wouldn't look at her even for a second. He wouldn't touch her. He wouldn't acknowledge her presence. Most annoyingly, he was unfazed by Ian's arrogance toward her.
Sulking up whatever courage was left inside of her, Lola braced herself for the chief of police address.
"Ahem!"
The chief of police cleared his throat loudly to get everyone's attention. Even though his office was well ventilated, it felt as though they were all in the middle of a scorching desert. With just a little spark of light, everything would turn chaotic.
"Mr Brian Hart, please accept my deepest apology once more for dragging you down here. I am aware of your challenging health conditions and I sincerely apologize for the disturbance."
