"In that case, officers, please help investigate this case. If you need them, you can access all the hotel's surveillance footage." Maeve said and casually glanced at Clara, who was hiding in Sergio's embrace.

Sheldon scoffed coldly. "Sergio, you really treasure this kind of woman!"
Maeve continued, "Now that things are clear, Ms. Stewart, shouldn't we handle the matter of you falsely accusing Sheldon according to the law?" X
