Chapter 497: The Heartstrings Loosen

"When can we leave?" Cloud Russell leaned her elbow on the chair armrest next to her, somewhat helpless.

Henry's mother, however, was very patient. She placed her hands on her knees and said softly, "As long as our safety is guaranteed, it doesn't matter if we wait a bit longer."

Charlotte Cooper, upon hearing this, moved her hand slightly and seemed a bit absent-minded during the police questioning. Cloud Russell constantly chimed in beside her, trying to speak positively, making sure not to look behind her due to Henry's mother's presence.

Their relationship had not improved overnight, but Charlotte found warmth in her heart because it was the first time she had seen Cloud Russell be so patient and speak so kindly for her sake.

"Charlotte!" Cloud Russell couldn't stay idle any longer and called out to her during a moment when the officer was preoccupied with taking notes. The person being addressed curled her fingers slightly and turned around.
