The entrapment operation caused quite a commotion as both Jasmine and Mike struggled wildly. They screamed, and Jasmine even pretended she was going to faint. But none of the arresting officers or detectives at the scene fell for any of it.
In the end, the duo was taken into custody for questioning.
As for Melissa, she was not taken to the station. Instead, she remained in the hospital. They moved her to a separate room in the ward, and the detective told her everything.
"What?" she breathed out, her shoulders sagging as she stared blankly at the officer across from her. "What are you saying? My dad didn't try to take his own life?"
The detective shook his head with a heavy sigh.
"We received a tip that your father's case might not be self-harm, but attempted murder. So we've been investigating quietly and found several inconsistencies in Mike and your mother's stories."
