Chapter 226


    Everyone’s eyes were glued to the main entrance. They were anxiously waiting for their loved ones


    to appear.


    “Hurry up! Why is it taking so long?” someone shouted impatiently.


    “Oh,e on. The officers need time to handle things,” another person soothed.


    “Drew will be out soon,” ire said, gripping her mother’s hand tightly, with a hint of resolve shing


    in her eyes.


    Finally, the first group of employees released from the police station emerged through the doors.


    Their faces were unable to hide the excitement and thrill, as if they had been given a new lease on


    life.


    “Oh, thank goodness! They’re finally out!” someone eximed joyfully.


    “Look, there’s my daughter!” a person pointed out one of the employees.


    The mother rushed forward to embrace her daughter tightly, wiping away tears. “Thank god you’re


    out.”


    As more and more employees were released, the crowd’s mood lifted increasingly.


    Time passed, but there was still no sign of Drew among those being released.


    His family grew more anxious.


    “Where is my son?” Riley started to fret.


    “Officer, could you please tell us how much longer it will be?” someone asked the police.


    “Please be patient, everyone. We are doing our best to process this quickly,” an officer reassured


    the crowd.


    Batch after batch of employees were released, and the crowd at the police station dwindled


    significantly.


    Just then, an officer suddenly announced, “Family members of those not released, please follow me


    to the station.”


    The remaining families exchanged worried nces, sensing trouble.


    Riley, panic-stricken, grasped at an officer’s arm, and his face was ashen.


    “Why? Officer, my child hasn’t done anything wrong. He doesn’t know anything!”


    The officer firmly removed Riley’s hand, saying sternly, “Please cooperate with our


    investigation.Line up and follow me inside.”


    A few officers maintained order as the remaining families somberly lined up and followed them into


    the station.


    Cam caught a glimpse of Lily’s former mother-inw also in line. She realized that since Julian


    was an executive and Capital Solutions was in trouble, he couldn’t escape the situation. Fortunately,


    Lily had divorced him.


    Cam, her mother, uncle, and grandmother followed the police inside, and their hearts were heavy


    with unease.


    “Line up and tell me the names of your family members.”


    After Riley reported Drew’s name, the officer led them into an office, and his expressions were


    grave.


    “After our investigation, Drew’s situation is notplicated. He indeed wasn’t aware of the


    company’s operations. We can now arrange for his bail, but you must surrender all the profits he


    made during his employment, and any debts must be cleared,” the officer exined.


    The family was stunned.


    “Officer, we really don’t know the details,” Riley pleaded urgently. “My son was just a regr


    employee. He never made any profits.”


    The officer frowned, his tone severe. “Sries, bonuses, these are all ill-gotten gains!”


    Cam’s heart tightened. “Right now, the most important thing is to secure Drew’s release.”


    The officer brought out a document, stating, “After our investigation, Drew earned a total of


    $217,000 in sry and bonuses over eight months, and has a debt of $700,000, making a total of


    $917,000.”
