Later, a police officer arrived to question me about Juliet. I remained silent, leaving the explanation to Violette.
The officer informed me that Juliet had dropped her charges, stating that she wouldn't pursue the matter further. All I needed to do was apologize to her.
I continued to remain silent.
"What do you know about this killing game? From what we gathered, you're just an ordinary person who graduated from college a few years ago with little social experience, and you often help homeless children.
"How did you manage to walk out of the ruined building unharmed? And your husband, he's intellectually disabled with mental issues-sorry."
I had never met the officer questioning me. I understood he was just doing his job and had no intention of offending me when referring to Dexter as intellectually disabled. Nevertheless, I spoke up warily.
