Her sobs filled the air, her shoulders shaking violently. Arlo Seys reached out to hold her, his tone unusually gentle, "Don't panic. You mean—you hit him, he bled a lot, and you didn't check if he was dead?"
Ariel Morris nodded, trembling.
Arlo Seys's expression turned serious as he thought it through. He looked at Ariel Morris, his voice slightly deep, "Ariel Morris, listen to me. We'll report this to the police now, and explain the situation clearly. You're acting in self-defense, you won't be held responsible. Besides, it's not certain if the person is dead!"
Ariel Morris was terrified at the word 'police' and shook her head vigorously. She was still young and didn't want to waste her prime years in prison. If she got caught for murder, her life would be ruined.
Arlo Seys held her shoulders, looking directly into her eyes, his gaze earnest, "Ariel Morris, trust me, even if you accidentally killed someone in self-defense, I will definitely protect you and keep you safe!"
