“You can’t arrest him, no matter what!” Even the usually calm Vice Mayor Jones was riled up, his temper flaring.

Michael was quite unique in this situation. He looked at Director Johnson and said, "Director Johnson, you know how diligent I usually am."

At this moment, Caleb didn't want to hear any more of it. "Enough, Michael! Take him away!"

He had originally planned to tidy up things before the new Secretary-General arrived, trying to cover up as much as he could and making sure everything was in order. He’d even given some tips here and there.

As long as the water was deep enough, Garrett wouldn’t be able to find anything, and the new official wouldn't be able to make a big show.

But now! This was practically giving the other side a reason to conduct a thorough investigation!

He couldn’t let Michael talk any longer!

The interrogators had already begun their actions. But just then, standing in the

    Now, the middle-aged woman has already collapsed.When she took the money, she didn't say anything about Mr. Jones, or about any secretaries.She's uneducated and doesn't understand some of these terms.But she's not stupid!Anyone who can make Director Michael kowtow and beg to kneel down must be a big shot!How dare she speak up? She just wanted to leave while the gods were fighting.But unfortunately, this girl stood in a position that blocked her way, whether intentionally or unintentionally!The middle-aged woman looked at Amelia with reluctance!Amelia's words carried a hint of laughter: "The plaintiff is here, and I, the defendant, am also here. Mr. Johnson, Vice Mayor Jones, and Garrett to join in the trial together."Together?!Caleb feared this situation the most!If they really tried it together, nothing would be hidden anymore!Garrett glanced at him, with a natural aura of authority: "What does Vice Mayor Jones think?"He wanted to know how deep the waters of LA really were.Whether

    Grandma Victoria was extremely anxious.After all, three hours had already passed.She had no idea what was happening at the police station right now.She had tried asking around, but everyone said the situation was complicated.Mary was indeed clever, and she knew how to pick the perfect moment.She deliberately chose to act when Amelia wasn’t around—she considered that quiet little mute girl to be an inconvenience.Mary wasn’t in a hurry. She just casually scrolled on her phone in front of Grandma Victoria: "Mom, look at this—how many people online are criticizing you.""This matter with Amelia isn’t going to end so easily. Think about it carefully—she assaulted an officer!"Mary tapped on a comment: "Look at this one. It’s so accurate. A poor girl who rose to fame online dares to look down on the heroes of the people. Such streamers should all be arrested and sentenced to a heavy crime!"Grandm

    "I’ve been through it, I understand. Once the case is filed, it’ll follow her for the rest of her life. She’s still young, and just starting her medical studies. She can’t have her future ruined like this."Mary was fully aware of this, which is why she was so confident.Grandma Victoria would definitely give her the live stream account.In Grandma Victoria’s heart, her granddaughter’s future was more important than anything else."Where do I sign?" Grandma Victoria’s voice was flat.Mary smiled brightly, guiding her: "Here, and here. After you sign, just leave your fingerprint.""How can you prove you can keep Amelia safe?" Grandma Victoria was cautious on this point. "Just mentioning the Crawford family? The Crawford family is in the capital, how can they interfere in LA ?"Mary cursed in her heart when she heard this. Grandma Victoria was difficult to handle."Of course, I’m not just mentionin

    "Of course," Director Noah’s eyes were sharp. he shuddered inside and confessed everything about their plans. He didn’t know the details about the online aspect, but the so-called "drug-induced coma" witness was indeed arranged by him. The plan was created by Mary. They intended to strike when the live stream of Harmony Clinic went live, at its peak viewership. They would arrest people on-site! In this way, regardless of whether Amelia was convicted in the end, her reputation as a medical practitioner would be tarnished forever! After all, this young girl came from a remote village. How could she possibly resist? Resistance would be seen as not cooperating with law enforcement. Once they took her into the station, how they dealt with Amelia would depend on her "attitude" or how well she could beg Mary to be satisfied. No matter the result, they could tear Ameli

    Any article or video related to the girl, any reposts or clicks—Orange Entertainment made money. The more people discussed her, the more they hated her, the more money they made. It was an innocent disaster for the girl. Strawberry_d sued them for defamation, but it was all in vain. Tracking down the real identities of the internet trolls was unrealistic. Moreover, the law couldn’t punish the masses. There were so many people attacking her online. In the end, Strawberry_d broke down, saying, "Is it only when I’m dead that you’ll believe me?" Orange Entertainment took full advantage of the situation, spreading more rumors. "People who threaten to kill themselves never really do." "She’s just pretending to be unbearable." "Go ahead and die, let’s see." Such comments flooded the girl, drowning her i

    The receptionist was acting strangely. It was as if they didn't even recognize her anymore. She had to ask for permission just to enter her own company. But overall, Mary was still in a good mood. The massive live stream traffic was almost hers, and soon, she’d be making money in her sleep. This small setback didn’t bother her. "You know, when I gave that girl face before, letting her leave and even giving her money—now that I think about it, I should’ve dealt with her like this. If she’d gone to jail, she’d have learned that without the Milton family, she’s nothing." Mary placed her coffee cup on the table, a smug look on her face. Jackson didn’t care about anything else. He only cared about one thing: "Did you go see the old lady? What did she say?" "What could she say? Of course, she’s going to try and save her," Mary said lazily,

    Jackson's hand trembled as he struggled to hold onto his phone.What on earth had happened to bring both the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the police here?!Forcing himself to remain calm, he stepped forward. "Hey, you—"The police ignored him and instead presented their identification directly to Mary."Mary?""Yes.""We need your cooperation in an investigation. Please come with us."Mary assumed they were referring to the Amelia case. Michael had previously mentioned that, as part of procedure, someone would need to question her.She wasn’t worried at all. In fact, she was rather relaxed. "Did Michael send you? Come in first, have a cup of tea. I appreciate your hard work on this case. If not for you—""You can discuss the case at the station." The officer's expression remained serious. "You have the right to remain silent."Only then did Mary sense that something was off. "Are you from the District Police Station?"The officer neither confirmed nor denied it. They simply moved

    Mary saw it through the glass.Her mind was in complete chaos, her legs unsteady as she tried to get a clearer look.But the two officers escorting her gave her no chance to glance around. They dragged her straight into another interrogation room.With a sharp clank, she was locked into the interrogation chair.At this moment, Mary’s face was completely drained of color, but she still stubbornly insisted, "I want to see Michael."She had seen what went on in places like this before."If Michael doesn’t come, I won’t say a single word."To her surprise, the officers actually agreed.They exchanged glances, then looked up at the surveillance camera as if receiving instructions from someone."You want to see Michael? Fine. Let her see him."The door closed behind them.A nameless fear surged and grew uncontrollably.Mary reassured herself—It’s fine. As long as Michael comes, everything can be settled.And if things got worse, there was still Caleb. He would have to show some respect to t

    Divorce?Not only did the entire scene become quiet.Even Zane was dumbfounded in the local area."Divorce?" He stared at his wife with wide eyes, in disbelief: "You want to divorce me?"The education of the Molson family, he knew it better than anyone.How could someone raise a woman who would say divorce right away?Wasn't she always abiding by the rules?Can't we discuss it privately, even if there is something that can't be said in private? Do we have to embarrass him in front of everyone in the hall?Zane seemed as if he didn't recognize Ruby anymore, anger welled up in his eyes."You fell ill again!"Zane reached out to grab Ruby: "Come with me to the hospital!"Did you get sick?Did Mrs. Cromwell say she wanted a divorce, was she ill?Some people were still confused.Amelia had already grabbed Zane's wrist with a strong grip and said, "My mother considered it unfair to disclose those documents regarding the Cromwell Group's impact. If you're smart, you'll just leave on your own

    Who knew, Ruby affectionately held her hand and said, "Mrs. Campbell is right. As mothers, we shouldn't promote harm to children. But when someone wants to harm our children, we don't care about saving face. We won't let them get involved!"Octavia was being held by such a delicate and beautiful lady, and she was feeling a bit nervous. "Ah, yes," she said."Throughout, everyone believed that my condition could stabilize because my husband brought a child back." Ruby looked at Zane like this for the first time, almost seeing through him: "I, like everyone else, believed the same."Our love, everyone present, especially Mrs. Fisher, was a witness to Zane and me.Ruby would never let something go, especially if it was directed towards her.Just because she came back late, not a single person intended to let her daughter go.Is it just like those people online who used to criticize Sebastian?Her illness was constantly giving others the opportunity to attack her daughter.Ruby had origina

    "Our sister has always been Amelia, that's what I remember, and I have told you more than once.""Before, we were concerned that you were a girl, and we would publicly expose you, causing you to lose face.""But you repeatedly, in various ways, slandered Amelia to satisfy your vanity, intruding into things that don't belong to you. My father wanted to protect you, we are not the same.""If I couldn't even protect my own younger sister, I would change my last name!"Almost in an instant, the entire banquet erupted!Raiden was really cool, protecting his sister with great style.Ruby was the first to grab Amelia's hand, shining brightly like never before, not to be underestimated.It was as if telling everyone, if you want to bully my daughter, you have to ask the Molson family behind me if they are willing or not.Yes, Ruby was not only Mrs. Cromwell, but most importantly, she was the most favored young lady of the Molson family.No one dared to jump around, Trista's perception was sha

    "The water of the Cromwell family was so deep, it was a bit concerning, but it's strange that Mrs. Cromwell is fine, yet her husband never mentioned it."Yeah, it's strange.Zane, who was always doting on his wife, was completely unaware that his wife had already recovered.The people present were not stupid, in fact, each of them was very intelligent.The ladies hated men of this kind the most!Acting like they loved, but in reality, it was all bullshit!"I wonder now, why Zane insisted on adopting Abby, there must be something wrong."Zane, upon seeing the situation, desperately wanted to go back!In fact, when Ruby arrived, he wanted to take the opportunity to dominate the other party, just like before.But these three sons, they didn't leave him any space at all!"I was your father!"Zane growled angrily, completely losing his composure!Raiden chuckled, "You don't have to be, as long as my mom is happy, I can be her lawyer."This statement, almost revealed all the hidden cards.B

    When that familiar sound rang out.Everyone froze for a moment.No one expected Ruby to come, even on an occasion like today.After all, the scene of her last attendance at the banquet was still vivid in her mind.In the minds of the ladies, especially Paula, it was assumed that Zane would place the other person in the hospital, and he didn't really pay any attention to Ruby at the moment, so naturally no one asked about it.At this moment.She was wearing a wine-red mermaid evening gown, and as soon as she entered the banquet hall, she caught everyone's attention.Ruby was very fair, with a pair of clear black eyes, and time had left very few traces on her face.She was still as cold and noble, back in the day people used to say, she was a red rose from Chicago.Delicate and fiery, with a different temperament from Amelia, at first glance, it is indeed hard to imagine the two of them together.But when Ruby approached, every gesture and expression between her eyebrows and eyes were e

    I didn't expect that, as soon as the child opened his eyes, he spat at her, which disgusted her a lot!Now she has grown up, and she is even more annoying than before!The Cromwell family should not have brought her back!Paula thought fiercely, but her face was filled with guilt.She knew she had to say something, otherwise the reputation of the Fisher family would be ruined!So Paula cleverly called out to Zane, "Zane, could you please explain to the Fisher family for us that we, the Fisher family, really didn't mean it. Maverick has always reminded us not to forget the kindness of the Cromwell family.""I knew, I knew," Zane thought to himself again, wanting to be a good person. "Does anyone need to say anything about the relationship between the Fisher family and the Cromwell family? Amelia, she just came back and is overthinking things.""But Amanda, in the future, you should be more restrained," Zane appeared to be lecturing Amanda, but in reality, he was downplaying the situati

    When he spoke, everyone at the banquet felt that Amanda from the Fisher family had a problem.Amelia couldn't help but look up and glanced at Raiden.This output was too strong. If the Fisher family doesn't apologize, it would be publicly admitting that they lack manners. The Fisher family will only feel worse.Sure enough, Paula was getting impatient: "Raiden, it's all a misunderstanding."She said, and then she pressed Amanda again, "If you don't apologize today, never come back to the Fisher family!"As soon as Amanda heard this, she knew that the situation was serious.She was even a little scared because of her mother's expression, which didn't seem like a joke."Yes, I'm sorry." Amanda's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Amelia. She still felt a bit resentful, but she knew she couldn't show it anymore. She clenched her hands and half-bowed, saying, "I shouldn't have slandered you without knowing anything. I was wrong. Please forgive my ignorance and foolishness."Amel

    It was Raiden, he took off his inconspicuous coat and walked over from the corner.Compared to Benjamin and Sebastian, he looked more like a typical corporate elite. He wore a diamond wristwatch on his hand, styled his hair in a handsome slicked-back manner, and had a refined smile on his sharply defined face."Raiden!" Sebastian's eyes lit up.The people who started the company also made way at this time.After all, Raiden couldn't just be seen as the young master of the Cromwell family. He was too well-known in the political circles of Chicago.Being in their line of work, you can't offend any lawyer.Raiden only glanced at Sebastian and his gaze fell on Amelia. Unable to resist, he reached out and tousled Amelia's long hair. "Amelia is so amazing, she should have been praised, but instead, she received slander."Amelia felt a little uncomfortable when her head was touched.Originally prepared to speak, suddenly I didn't know what to say.Raiden, however, felt that this was the fami

    What else could Amanda say? She was already dumb now.If she could have restrained herself a little, not being so arrogant, perhaps there would still be room for negotiation now.Unfortunately, she spoke without thinking in front of a large crowd in the hall and managed to offend the Cromwell family completely!She also saw that the other party had been silent all along, thinking that she had a hold on the other party.Who knew this village girl would turn out to be Lamar?!Why didn't she say it earlier?Didn't she even understand the situation and deliberately let her make a scene to this extent! Should we clean up after her again?Amanda was startled by her own idea!She went to look at the person across the street seriously for the first time. Did she really not understand anything, as she thought, about the country bumpkin?There was no time left for her to ponder, marvel, and discuss, as they came one after another.Amanda finally became the center of attention at the party, but
