"Wait a minute-I didn''t call today just to shoot the breeze." The voice on the other end turned serious. "The situation in the Maldives, it''s all been sorted out." Roseanne instinctively sat up straight: "Talk to me."
"Got time? Let''s grab a bite, I''ve got something for you."
Roseanne frowned slightly, nced at her watch, and agreed to meet the next day at three in the afternoon.
...

"Sincest year, this internationalwsuit has been pushing forward, during which the hotel was forced to hand over all surveince footage."
"Plus, with a fortunate tip-off about an eyewitness, following the trail, we finally cleared up the truth."
Corley was the first to know, and he had absolute trust in his team.
And when he learned the oue, he wasn''t the least bit surprised.

Whether for herself or others, Roseanne couldn''t possibly y the martyr.
As for Murray, he''s neither a cop nor a judge, what does it matter whether he knows or not?
Corley said, "Then you should brace yourself, the oue might not be as optimistic as you think."
...
Leaving the diner, Roseanne headed to the police station with Corley by her side, carrying the evidence to file a report.
