Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Not a Single One Can Escape
Zachary Conway looked at Yuri Sullivan and raised an eyebrow. "You have evidence?"
"Yes!" Yuri Sullivan tapped his phone a few times. "I have a button camera on my clothes. It recorded the entire thingāDora Archer asking me to a movie, hinting that I should get a hotel room with her, and then taking off her clothes to seduce me."
He handed his phone to Zachary Conway. "Officers, you can take a look. Iām the real victim here."
Dora Archer and Paul Lowe were both too stunned to speak, completely panicking.
āThis guyās button is a camera?ā
āAnd if the bastard had evidence, why didnāt he say so earlier? Why wait until now?ā
Paul Lowe instinctively reached out to grab Yuri Sullivanās phone. "This is impossible! It has to be fake!"
Zachary Conway immediately twisted his arms behind his back and pushed him to the floor. "What do you think youāre doing?"
"Honey!" Dora Archer jumped in fright and cried out, "Donāt hit my husband! How can the police hit people...?"
Zachary Conway retorted, "Which one of your eyes saw me hit him?"
Sawyer took Yuri Sullivanās phone and saw Dora Archer being the one to suggest going to the hotel.
Yuri Sullivan added from the side, "Skip ahead. You can see that at the hotel entrance, she said she was thirsty and told me to go in first and get a room."
"Then a bit later, when we entered the room, she deliberately acted like she was being dragged in."
"After that, she started taking off her clothes on her own..."
Sawyerās expression became a little awkward as she watched the screen. "The video is very clear. Yuri Sullivan is the victim."
She looked at Dora Archer and said sternly, "Dora Archer, why did you falsely accuse Yuri Sullivan?"
"I..." Dora Archer opened her mouth, but for a moment, she didnāt know how to respond.
āSheād done this many times, but this was the first time someone had recorded a video and kept the evidence.ā
Paul Lowe, eager to distance himself from the situation, said angrily, "Wife, didnāt you tell me this guy was trying to rape you? How dare you lie to me! Iām so disappointed in you. Letās get a divorce!"
With that, he struggled hard to break free from Zachary Conwayās hold, making a show of leaving.
"Not so fast." Zachary Conway held him down firmly, chuckling. "Neither of you is going anywhere."
Sawyer said in a low voice, "Dora Archer, Paul Lowe, we received a tip that Dora Archer uses the pretense of a romantic relationship to lure victims into getting a hotel room..."
"...while Paul Lowe bursts into the room during the sexual act to record a video, threatens to call the police, and extorts money from the victim... Weāll need you two to come with us to the station to cooperate with the investigation!"
Upon hearing this, the color drained from Dora Archer and Paul Loweās faces.
āItās over!ā
āItās really all over now...ā
The scammer couple sat in the police car, racking their brains but unable to figure out when they had aroused suspicion or when they had been reported.

After giving their statements and as they were about to leave the police station, Yuri Sullivan solemnly thanked Renee Jennings.
He gave her a deep bow. "Renee, thank you. From this day forward, youāre my savior. If thereās ever anything I can do to help, Iāll do everything in my power without hesitation!"
Seeing his earnest expression, Renee Jennings found it amusing. "Savior is a bit of an exaggeration."
"Itās not an exaggeration!" Yuri Sullivan said with a straight face. "My reputation is more important than my life!"
Renee Jennings was speechless.
Yuri Sullivan pursed his lips, then summoned his courage. "Renee, can I add you on WeChat?"
Renee Jennings nodded. "Sure."
After they became WeChat friends, the first thing Yuri Sullivan did was send her money!
"Why did you send me so much money?" Renee Jennings saw that he had transferred 500,000 to her.
Yuri Sullivan gave a goofy grin. "Itās to thank you for saving me, Renee! Iāve hit my WeChat transfer limit. I can only send 500,000 a day. After midnight, Iāll send you another 500,000!"
"Donāt send any more," Renee Jennings said quickly. "I didnāt help you for the money. I did it because youāre Hankās friend."
Standing nearby, Sean Fuller was incredibly moved when he heard this. "Renee, you really are like a sister to me!"
After saying that, he fiddled with his phone for a moment and also transferred 500,000 to Renee Jennings.
"Hank, why did you send me money too?" Renee Jennings was getting a headache from all this.
Sean Fuller said, "Renee, accept my money, not Chadās."
Renee Jennings was both amused and exasperated. "Iām not accepting money from either of you."
She returned the money and said with a smile, "If you really want to thank me, just treat me to a meal."
Yuri Sullivan grew thoughtful. "In that case, Iāll have to plan this meal carefully!"
"Me too!" Sean Fuller looked equally serious.
Hearing this, Renee Jennings added, "But Iāll be the one choosing the restaurant."
"Huh?"
"Huh??"
Renee Jennings said with a grin, "For tonight, letās just have Chad treat us to a late-night snack."
"Yeah, great!" Yuri Sullivan said excitedly. "Renee, Sister Michelle, where would you like to eat?"
Renee Jennings replied, "Letās get some barbecue."
When the group arrived at the barbecue place, Yuri Sullivan opened the menu, glanced at the prices, and immediately frowned. "This is way too cheap. At these prices, I could afford to treat you to meals for the rest of your life, Renee!"
"What are you thinking?" Sean Fuller tapped him on the head with his chopsticks, saying irritably, "Treat my Renee to meals for life? You?"
"Youāre misunderstanding me!" Yuri Sullivan explained, rubbing his head. "Itās not what you think."
Sean Fuller said fiercely, "Well, youāre not allowed to talk like that anyway!"
"Got it, got it." Yuri Sullivan nodded meekly. "It wonāt happen again."
Seeing this, Michelle Fuller also tapped her own brother on the forehead with her chopsticks. "You brat, why are you being so mean to Chad?"
Sean Fuller was speechless.
He rubbed the spot where sheād hit him, his expression dead serious. "Michelle Fuller, are you trying to be Yuri Sullivanās real sister?"
Michelle Fuller rolled her eyes at him. "Youāre so childish."
"Explain yourself!"
"I canāt be bothered with you. Renee, what do you want to eat?"
"Renee, what do you want to eat? Iāll order for you..."
"Get out of the way. Iāll order for Renee."
Listening to the siblings bicker, Renee Jennings smiled so wide her eyes curved into crescents.
Once they finally finished ordering, Michelle Fuller looked at Sean Fuller and sighed. "It would be so nice if I had an older sister. Too bad I got a little brother..."
Not to be outdone, Sean Fuller immediately retorted, "Well, I have an older sister, but unfortunately, sheās not a qualified one."
"What did you say?" Michelle Fuller slammed the table and shot up, leaning over to grab Sean Fullerās ear. "Who did you say isnāt a qualified sister?"
"Ouch... It hurts, it hurts!" Sean Fuller howled and quickly changed his tune. "I said Iām not a qualified little brother! Iāve disappointed my sister."
Michelle Fuller snorted. "Thatās more like it!"
The barbecue was much more interesting thanks to the siblingsā squabbling.
As Renee Jennings was eating her barbecue, she suddenly heard a system notification.
[System 009: Level 4 new mission triggered: Prevent a tragedy. Mission Rewards: Human Science Dictionary, 300 points, 3 million cash. Mission Penalty: Struck by lightning. Time Limit: 96 hours.]
āA tragedy?ā
Renee Jenningsās brows furrowed slightly. She stopped eating, a thoughtful expression on her face.
āWhat kind of tragedy could it be?ā
