Chapter 2269
Naya was stunned for a second. Then, she turned to look at the police, her heart pounding. Madeline also followed
the source of the sound and could probably guess what was going on. However, Ava did not care about Naya at all.
Her eyes and thoughts were all on Daniel.
Although Naya was very nervous, she knew that she could not panic.
“I'm Naya Mendez.” Naya walked over, pretending to have a clear conscience. “May I help you, officers?”
“We've found the person who broke into Miss Long's vehicle that day. The other party isa gangster who idles his
time away. What he said is almost the same as what Chloe Tawney said,” the police officer said directly.

They found the man who tampered with the car? Naya's face flashed with panic, but she pretended to be calm as
she said, “It’s good that you’ve arrested him. You should go find that man. Why did you come to me?”
“We want to ask you to assist in the investigation of some related urgent matters. We have to trouble you to go to
the police station with us.” Upon hearing the police officer's words, Naya breathed a sigh of relief. She thought the
police had found something, but they did not.
Naya followed with a friendly smile. “I'm happy to assist the police.”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Ava, whose eyes were blurry with tears. “Ava, no matter how much you
distance yourself from the fact, nothing can change that Dan was driving your car when he got into the accident.”
Naya glanced at the police after saying that. “ Let's go, Mr. Officer.”
The leading police officer turned around and led the way. Just then, Madeline stopped the other police officer who
was walking behind. “Officer, Iwant to know something.” The police officer asked politely, “May I ask who you
are...”
Madeline explained her relationship with Ava and Daniel. Then, she asked, “Did the man you catch admit that he
was the one who tampered with my friend’s car?”
“No,”
The policeman answered firmly.
“He admitted to taking money from Chloe Tawney to break into Miss Long's car, but he said he just stole valuables
from the car and didn't do anything to the brakes.”
Ava gently released Daniel's hand when she heard the words. She stood up. “He isn’t the one who tampered with

“We did a polygraph test with him and he didn't lie, but a polygraph isn't necessarily 100 percent accurate.”
“So what does this matter have to do with Naya?” Madeline asked.
The officer said he could not reveal to them the details of the investigation. Hence, he turned around and left.
“Maddie, what’s going on? If that man didn’t tamper with my car, how did the brakes get damaged?”
Ava grabbed Madeline’s hand and asked in confusion. A look of self-blame appeared on her face.
“So, it’s still my fault. Nothing would’ve happened to Danny if he hadn’t driven my car.”
“Ava, you’re overthinking again. I told you that this has nothing to do with you.”
Madeline comforted Ava, but she was quietly thinking about the doubtful points in this case.
“I'm not overthinking, Maddie. Danny took this calamity for me.”
