He glanced at the reporters outside and added, "Wait until they all leave before going out."
Daphne opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
She wanted to ask why he couldn't be released on bail.
But Aidan had already tried and failed to bail Louis, so what was the point of asking again?
At this moment, Freddie walked out.
Daphne looked at him, and before she could speak, Freddie shook his head and pushed up the gold-
rimmed glasses on his nose. "The situation isn't looking good. He's not cooperating with me."
Daphne asked, "Can I see him?"
"You can, but he doesn't want to see you," Freddie replied.
Daphne was taken aback. "He doesn't want to see me?"
Freddie coughed. "Don't get me wrong, it's not what you think. It's just…"
He struggled to explain these things because he was concerned that doing so would only make matters
worse.
From his conversation with Louis earlier, he could tell that it wasn't because of the photos that he had
any grievances or dissatisfaction with Daphne.
Louis simply didn't know how to approach her in this circumstance, didn't know what to say, and didn't
want her to see him imprisoned.
Because he was a proud man who valued his self-esteem.
Aidan looked at Freddie and said, "I'm leaving. You're in charge here."
With that, he turned and left.
Daphne stood silently in place, then looked at Freddie and questioned, "Can I talk to you privately?"
Standing in the corridor of the police station, Daphne tightly gripped her phone, her voice trembling as
she asked, "How will this case ultimately be judged?"
Freddie responded, "It depends on whether Theodore survives. If he dies, then Louis will be charged
with intentional homicide, with a minimum sentence of three years and a maximum of ten years. If he
doesn't die, the case will be much easier."
Daphne continued, "B-but it was Theodore who provoked him. Can't the sentencing be based on that?"
Freddie said, "Have you seen the video of the incident?"
Daphne shook her head.
Freddie took out his phone and showed her a video. "This is the first video that was circulated. From
this, you can see that Theodore didn't fight back at all. So, even if Theodore Frost doesn't die, it's
almost impossible for this case to be completely dismissed."
Daphne furrowed her brows tightly. "But it's clear that Theodore kept provoking him with his words."
"Unless Louis is willing to repeat what Theodore said to him in court. And also…"
"And also what?"
Daphne hurriedly asked, "Do you mean evidence? I have it. Theodore contacted me because he
wanted to threaten me before. So, yes, I can provide evidence."
Freddie paused before speaking, "What he sent to you can only prove that Theodore attempted to
harass and threaten you. But even so, his charges are not enough. As for crucial evidence… "
"Crucial evidence?" Daphne asked. "What is it? I'm sure I can find them."
Freddie replied, "You won't be able to find it. Louis burned it."
In the other videos, it was captured that Theodore took out a stack of photos from his bag, and that was
when Louis started beating him mercilessly.
With the video evidence and the stack of photos, there was a chance to win this case.
Without them, the evidence from Daphne wouldn't be of much use.
Daphne stood there in shock. "What do you mean by 'burned it'?"
Daphne was a witness in this case and since they had already reached this point, Freddie didn't keep
anything from her. "When Theodore went to find Louis, he gave him a stack of photos, which led to
what happened later."
Daphne took a couple of steps back and leaned against the wall behind her, tears instantly streaming
down her face.
So Louis did see those photos, and not just one…
Freddie said, "I have no intention of prying into gossip or invading privacy. I don't know if I can ask you
this, but how did those photos come about?"
Daphne covered her face in pain and her voice trembling as she replied, "I don't know. He took them
secretly, and I had never seen them before."
Now the only thing she could be grateful for was that those photos were taken while she was asleep,
and there was nothing more terrifying.
But even so, it didn't make things much better.
Freddie said, "I have a suggestion for you. Go to the police now and file a complaint against Theodore.
However, if you want to file a case, you must provide evidence, so the photos he sent will inevitably be
seen by judicial authorities."
