A Love Rekindled (Nancy and Bruce)

Bruce immediately draped his jacket onto Cindy.

Then, he glared daggers at me and Anika, obviously angered.

"Mr. Harold, I have a change of clothing in my office. Should..."

"No need," Bruce said indifferently. Then, he ordered John, "Call the police immediately."

I was stunned after hearing that he wanted to call the police.

I immediately stopped him and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. I can explain to you all."

After that, I turned to look at Cindy for help.

However, I saw tears streaming down her face as she choked out, "Bruce, I'm fine. I just upset my colleague because I said something wrong."

Bruce's expression darkened after Cindy explained herself. Then, he consoled her, saying, "Don't worry. I'm here."

After that, he shot John another look.

John gave me a hesitant glance before taking out his phone.

"Mr. Harold, please..." I felt a sense of urgency.

After all, Anika was still young. It was dishonorable for her to be involved in legal matters at such an age.

"She'll need to face the consequences for doing something wrong. Let's meet at the police station," Bruce interrupted me with an impartial look. Then, he led Cindy to the resting room.

He was completely ruthless.

Half an hour later, we were brought to the police station.

The head of Roeval Group's legal department had also rushed over.

After recording our statement, the police kindly reminded us, "The other party's lawyer indicated that the coffee temperature was too high, so they're not ruling out the possibility that she was intentionally causing

harm to others."

I felt a pang in my heart as I asked, "Does that mean they're also considering pressing criminal charges?"

The police officer shot me a

meaningful look before glancing at

Anika. "Since you guys are

colleagues, I suggest settling the matter privately. And try to do it with

a sincere attitude."

Anika was absolutely stunned. She didn't expect her sudden outburst would lead to this situation.

I tried to comfort her and said, "It's not right to attack others, Anika. You were really in the wrong this time."

"But Cindy shouldn't have said that my characters were rubbish. You know that my projects are so precious to me. I won't allow anyone to insult them!" Anika's eyes were red.

I was a bit stunned. I didn't expect that the soft-spoken Cindy would say something like that.

"Don't worry. I'll go and talk this out with Ms. Lane and Mr. Harold."

Although Anika was in the wrong and deserved punishment, she shouldn't have to bear criminal responsibility.

If she was charged, her future was ruined.

However, Bruce and Cindy had left the police station when I reluctantly went to find them.

The lawyer told me, "She got quite a bit of shock, so she's still a bit emotional now. Mr. Harold felt uneasy leaving her alone, so he took her back."

The lawyer even told me that Bruce made it clear that his decision was final before leaving.

After pondering for a moment, I could only call Cindy.

"Ms. Lane, Anika has already admitted to his mistakes. She'll apologize to you first thing in the morning tomorrow. Can you try to convince Mr. Harold to settle this matter privately?" Cindy went silent for a while before asking, "Nancy, would you forgive her so easily if you were the one getting splashed coffee at?"

My voice choked up before apologizing, "I'm sorry."

Cindy's tone carried a hint of

displeasure as she said, "You're not in the wrong, so there's no need to apologize to me. But all in all, you and Ms. Whittaker never considered me a member of your team."
