Chapter 2251

When Daniel's mother saw Madeline and Ava looking behind her, she turned back curiously. She was a little surprised when she saw the two policemen.

“Officers, what's the matter? Who are you looking for?”

Daniel's mother asked with a perplexed expression. Then, something seemed to click in her head. She suddenly pointed at Ava.

“You're here to arrest this woman, aren't you? My son got into an accident because he drove her car!”

Madeline was utterly speechless when she saw Mrs. Graham’s actions, but she was sure the police were not looking for Ava.

Sure enough, the next second, the police looked at Naya who was standing beside Daniel's mother.

They asked with a serious expression, “Are you Naya Mendez?”

Upon seeing this, Daniel's mother was even more surprised. “Y-You’re looking for Naya? What did Naya do?”

Naya ignored Mrs. Graham’s confused and shocked expression when she saw that. z She had already expected the police to come to look for her, but she did not expect them to be so fast and arrive at such a time. She nodded while pretending to be confused and meek.

“I'm Naya Mendez. Can I help you with anything?”

“Is Chloe Tawney your friend?” The police showed Naya Chloe’s photo.

Naya took a serious look and nodded affirmatively. “She’s my friend. Did anything happen to her?”

“We just need you to verify that she’s Chloe Tawney.”

The police put away the photo and stated the reason why they were here.

“Chloe is suspected of instigating others into tampering with the brakes of the car with the license plate number 886. It caused the car to have a brake failure and the driver got into an accident. After finding out that Chloe instigated others, we discovered that you transferred 10,000 dollars to her, so we have reason to suspect that Chloe was instigated by you.”

“What? What did you say?” After hearing this, Daniel's mother was greatly surprised. She glanced at Naya in disbelief, then asked the police, “Don't talk nonsense. How could Naya instigate others to do this kind of thing? It’s impossible!”

Madeline and Ava also looked at each other in surprise.

Was that crash not an accident but a deliberate attempt?

“The police will investigate the case thoroughly to determine if it’s the case. Now, Mis Mendez, please come with us,” the police said sternly.

“I'm happy to cooperate with your investigation, but I can swear on my family's reputation in Glendale that I, Naya Mendez, have never done anything wrong—let alone commit any illegal acts.”

Naya swore and turned to look at Daniel's mother. “Mrs. Graham, I know you're worried about me, but don't worry. The police won't wrongfully accuse a good person. I'm just going back with them to assist in the investigation. I'll be back soon to continue watching over Dan.”

Upon hearing what Naya said, Daniel's mother could not see through Naya's pretense at all. Instead, she even felt a little distressed for Naya. “Someone who previously colluded with her friend to frame others dares to guarantee that she has never done anything wrong. Miss Mendez, are you really not afraid that your family's reputation will be affected by you?” Madeline said with a soft smile, her tone slightly sarcastic.

Naya's face collapsed slightly, but she also knew that she would not get any benefits from refuting Madeline. Besides, after the previous incident, her reputation had already been ruined. Arguing right now would only make her even more embarrassed. Hence, Naya stopped talking and turned around to leave.

“Wait.”

Madeline stopped them and then strutted in front of the police. Suddenly, her expression became abnormally serious and stern.

“Officers, you said my friend’s car was tampered with just now, so that’s why the car couldn’t stop and crashed into another vehicle. However, that car belongs to my friend and it was just a coincidence that her boyfriend drove her car that day.

“If there was no such coincidence and my friend drove her car, the person who would get into an accident would be my friend. What does this mean, then?”
