Chapter 452


    The ck Bentley stopped at the door of the police station.


    Farr, who was sitting in front, helped Wendy open the door. Wendy seemed to be awakened. He


    used the strength of holding the door to let her weak feet stand firmly on the ground.


    She looked up at the solemn police badge and felt as if her throat had been choked.


    Four years ago, she was also arrested wrongly and sent to the police station. After that, she had


    visited Ynda with Charlie before, but she never thought that one day Charlie would be brought


    here.


    Her heart was bewildered like a boundless wilderness, the wind blew through, and there was only


    dry and cracked ground left.


    She didn''t know what to do or what had happened. But undoubtedly, her man was in danger.


    Along the way, Wendy had been holding her phone tightly, as if she could squeeze water out of it.


    There was a read text message on top of the screen from Charlie, a short one of only three words.


    "Don''t be afraid."


    Wendy felt pain in her eye sockets.


    ording to Farr, the time when the message was sent was supposed to be when he was taken


    away by the police. The image of her being kidnapped thest time appeared in her mind. He was


    full of wounds at that time, obviously, his situation was worse than ever, but all he could think about


    was her.


    With the three words, Wendy could almost see the deep eyes of that man.


    Charlie...


    "Is the one who was brought back really the president of the Hogg''s Group?"


    "It''s Mr. Hogg, who''s always on the news and magazines. God, it''s unbelievable. He''s one of the


    men the girls in Ice City want to marry the most!"


    It''s normal that some people were brought in and out of the police station every day, but someone


    like Charlie could cause a sensation, even though the news was deliberately suppressed from


    above. Especially some intern police officers, were all discussing in private.


    "He seems to be involved in a business case, and it is said that he secretly lost a huge amount of


    money from his partner, the amount is frightening!"


    Another police officer mysteriously jumped in. "There''s a rumor. I heard that he fell out with his


    father and wants to retire from the Hogg''s Group to settle down overseas. This is actually an


    internal burry. Who would have thought that he would be discovered..."


    Gilbert, who was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, shook his body when he heard those voices.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Both his younger sister Donna and his wife E came forward to support him at the same time. The


    latter whispered with concern, "Master!" When he received the shocking news brought by Donna,


    he was feeding his favorite fish in his study and knocked over the fish tank. He was so shocked that


    he immediately rushed over from Hogg''s Mansion.


    Gilbert raised his hand, wanting to say that he was fine. However, his mood fluctuated greatly and


    for a moment, he did not make any sound.


    "Do you believe that he is that kind of person?"


    Just then, a soft female voice suddenly sounded behind him.


    Gilbert couldn''t help but turn around. He saw Wendy, who was standing a few steps away and


    seemed to have just entered the room. There was not a trace of blood on her face. Although she


    looked very calm, her tightly clenched hands revealed the fear and anxiety in her heart.


    "Wendy!" Donna walked over and patted her on the shoulder, trying tofort her.


    Gilbert was not surprised by her appearance. After hearing her question, he almost instantly


    shouted, "Of course not!"


    "He is my son, how can I not know what kind of person he is!"


    Gilbert''s chest rose and fell slightly. This he said a little higher in volume, drowning out the whispers


    of the officers.


    Although the rtionship between the father and son was at a stalemate, after all, Charlie was his


    son. He had high hopes for Charlie since Charlie was a child, and even if Charlie was now


    disobedient, as a father, deep down he would believe in Charlie unconditionally.


    Wendy didn''t bother to look at the police officers, but said solemnly, "That''s good. As for what others


    say, it doesn''t matter!"


    That''s right, it didn''t matter!


    Gilbert''s eyes met with Wendy''s, and his mind was revitalized. He didn''t expect that there would be


    a day where he would find a connection from her words.


    Aw enforcement officer wearing a uniform walked over to them and asked while adjusting his


    police cap, "Who is Mr. Hogg''s family?"


    "I''m his father!" Gilbert, who was closest to the officer, stepped forward and said.


    Thew enforcement officer looked at Gilbert and spoke with a stern expression, "Mr. Hogg is


    suspected of an economic case and is suspected of illegal profit- seeking. Now, we are going to


    sentence him to criminal detention in ordance with thew!"


    "Criminal detention?" Gilbert''s eyes almost popped out.


    Donna was also very excited and asked, "Charlie could not havemitted a crime, do you have


    any proof?"


    "Please rest assured, everyone! We will investigate clearly whether or not any crimes have been


    committed!" The expression on thew enforcement officer''s face did not change, and his attitude


    was rigorous.


    "Then we asked to have awyer post bail for him!" Gilbert immediately said.


    "I''m sorry!" The officer shook his head unselfishly and refused directly, "Because of the huge


    amount of money involved, Mr. Hogg is about to be prosecuted. Therefore, during this period, bail is


    not allowed!"


    "..." Everyone was stunned and rooted to the spot.


    Wendy closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can I request a visit


    then?"


    "Yes!" The officer nodded. However, as his gaze swept past them, he said indifferently, "But


    ording to the rules, only one person can enter. Who do you choose to enter?"


    The ones who could be informed were all Charlie''s family members. It seemed like it would be


    difficult to decide who would be allowed in.


    From the beginning of the ident to now, no one had seen Charlie. They all urgently wanted to


    see him, to know how he was doing...


    Wendy stood at the back with her fingers deeply inserted into her palm. She really wanted to go in


    and see him, but now not only she but also Charlie''s father and aunt who were close to him. This


    decision fell into the hands of Gilbert, who was Charlie''s father.


    The officer frowned and urged, "Have you all thought about it? Who is going in to visit?"


    Donna couldn''t help but say, "Brother!"


    Gilbert''s body stood stiffly for a few seconds. He seemed to sigh in a low voice. Then he turned his


    body, did not look at Wendy behind him, but his extended hand pointed at her, "Forget it, let her go!"


    He knew that the person his son wanted to see the most... was her!


    Just like the time when Charlie was sent out from the operating roomst time, the person he


    wanted to see the most at this moment must be her.


    Donna saw this and said happily, "Wendy, go in and see Charlie!"


    Wendy was also surprised. He said softly, "Thank you."


    Gilbert ignored her. Instead, he got his wife to help him to the bench on the other side of the corridor


    and sat down.


    Wendy loosened her grip but her raised leg stopped. She looked at the officer and asked in a


    pleading tone, "Excuse me, can I go to the bathroom first?"


    "Yes!" The officer nodded his head.


    Wendy turned around and walked quickly to the bathroom nearby.
