Debra seemed conflicted, then asked, I want to join you, can I?
No, I replied firmly, not considering it.
Her expression fell slightly.
Sighing, I explained helplessly, Abby has just been through an ordeal. She needs your comfort to feel secure and rest well.
Understanding my point, Debras expression softened with compassion.
Okay, Ill stay and care for her.
She gazed affectionately at Abby.
I thanked her, stroking her hair.
After a pause, Debra expressed her concern. Please, dont be harsh with Nora during the interrogation. She has suffered a lot.

I sighed, feeling a mix of frustration and resignation, and reassured her quietly. I promise, as long as Nora cooperates, I wont harm her.
Relieved by my assurance, Debra relaxed.

Andrews expression was grim. He said nothing but met my gaze with seriousness.
My irritation grew. Was it Nora who poisoned Abby?

Dont you have enough evidence? Why havent you convicted her then?
I demanded, my anger rising.
Andrew sighed awkwardly. The problem is, while we have evidence, we lack a witness. No matter how I press her, Nora wont reveal why she harmed Abby.
