Raeleigh was standing about 10 metres away from the car. Santiago seemed to have a hunch that the car would explode and quickly reached out to shield Raeleigh from the st. Thankfully, aside from Raeleigh being shaken up, both of them escaped unscathed.


    By the time Raeleigh came back to her senses, Santiago had released her. He was staring at the bodies of the policemen who had been killed by the st. Raeleigh immediately looked over at Santiago and said, “They were innocent!”


    However, Santiago did not reply.


    Raeleigh immediately called the police and the ambnce. When another team of police officers finally arrived, Santiago gave them a detailed breakdown of what had happened. Although the police officers knew that he was from the Richards family,that did not mean that he was not suspicious. In the end, they decided to bring both Santiago and Raeleigh to the police station for further investigation.


    When they arrived at the station, Santiago andRaeleigh hurriedly gave them their deposition. However, midway through taking Santiago’s statement, the police suddenly received a phone call. His original calm andposed attitude immediately changed.


    “We did not find any trace of anyone breaking into your car. We are now suspecting that you have deliberate intent to hurt the police and that you’re flouting thew. We are going to detain you.”


    Raeleigh, who was sitting beside him, suddenly stood up. “What are you talking about?”


    “You heard us.”


    The policeman was very straightforward and stern to Raeleigh, especially the policewoman. When she saw Raeleigh was about to stand up, she hurriedly pushed her back down. Everything happened so quickly that Raeleigh did not have time to react.In addition, her heart was pounding wildly in her chest.


    Raeleigh looked over at Santiago and saw that he was ring at the policewoman as he walked towards her. If looks could kill, the policewoman would have already been dead by now.


    “Apologize at once.”


    Santiago warned the policewoman. However, instead of apologizing, the policewoman said, “She’s now one of the suspects for this case. She’s not allowed to go anywhere without our permission and now you want me to apologize? She’s the one who’s supposed to be apologizing.”


    The policewoman asserted her dominance.


    Santiago sneered before reaching out and grabbing her by the cor, lifting her up from the ground. “I’ll repeat once. Apologise, now!”


    The policemen, who were surrounding them, quickly took out their guns and pointed it at Santiago. However, Santiago remained unfazed.


    “Do prefer to apologise or do you prefer to die?”


    In an instant, Santiago shot a sharp re at her.


    The policemen had already pulled the trigger.If Santiago made another move, he would be shot.


    However, deep down, none of the policemen actually dared to shoot him.


    On the other hand, the policewoman burned with anger. In the end, she had no choice but to apologise to Raeleigh.


    Raeleigh reached out and pulled Santiago’s arm. “Santiago, you know what? Just forget it.”


    Only then did Santiago let go of the policewoman and threw her to the ground. Raeleigh suddenly heard a snap and momentster, the policewoman screamed in pain.


    This caused a stir in the police station. Santiago cast a quick nce around the room and realized that some of the policemen were frightened down to the soles of their shoes.


    Raeleigh pulled Santiago’s arm again and said, “Come on, Santiago. That’s enough.”


    “What are you talking about?” Santiago pulled out a chair and motioned for Raeleigh to sit down. She suddenly realised that Santiago had done this on purpose to show his dominance.


    After that, Santiago sat down beside her and asked, “Does it hurt?”


    Raeleigh blushed. How could it not hurt? The policewoman exerted force.


    “Stop stirring up trouble.”


    “Come here, let me have a look.” Santiago said as he lifted Raeleigh’s coat, wanting to massage the sore spot on her buttocks. Raeleigh immediately pped his hands away, “Don’t you dare!”


    When Santiago saw how angry she looked, he immediately pulled his hands back.


    Santiago sat down while the rest of the policemen quickly went back to work. A few momentster, the superintendent appeared with an unpleasant look on his face.


    When he saw Santiago, he immediately said, “We’re going to detain the both of you.”


    “I want to call mywyer.”


    The superintendent agreed and Santiago quickly made the call.


    “Seibert…”


    “Yes, Mr. Santiago?”


    “I’m at the police station. Can you bring mywyer over? Something’s happened.”


    Then, Santiago hung up the phone. Raeleigh asked, “Do you want me to inform your family?”


    “It’s okay, no need to make them worry.” In fact, Santiago was not worried at all.


    However, Raeleigh was.In a haste, she asked Santiago, “But your brother is not in the country. Are you sure you don’t want to inform your family?”


    “No, there’s no needto.If they find out about it, they are going to nag me. Seibert has now taken over Stuart’s job.”


    Raeleigh felt that this incident was not as simple as it sounds, but she could not figure out what was going on.


    A moment after, Raeleigh and Santiago were locked up in separate cells. However, before Santiago entered his cell, he threatened the superintendent that if anything happened to Raeleigh, he would seek revenge on his family.


    For a moment, there wasplete silence in the police station. Furyvibrated through Raeleigh’s being as she cursed inwardly.


    “The police station was equipped with surveince cameras. What was there to worry about? Furthermore, he had inadvertently killed a couple of policemen and injured a policewoman. Now, he was threatening them? What the hell was he thinking?” Raeleigh thought.


    Raeleigh turned around and entered her cell. She was optimistic that nothing bad would happen to Santiago.


    However, not long after she entered, Seibert arrived.


    An hourter, Seibert appeared in front of Raeleigh’s cell to check on her.


    When Raeleigh hearda creaking sound,sheraised her head and looked at Seibert.


    “How’s Santiago?” Raeleigh asked worriedly.


    “This case is a littleplicated. Not to mention the trouble he’s caused just now. Jepherson’s not around at the momentandthe odds are not in his favour.”


    “Call Mr. Jepherson.” The only person Raeleigh could think of at this moment was Jepherson.


    “I’ve tried, but I couldn’t get through.”


    Raeleigh frowned. “It’s impossible, he’s….”


    Raeleigh thought for a moment. “Have you told Mr. and Mrs. Richards?”


    “I’m responsible for this case. I can’t let Mr. and Mrs. Richards know about this. Furthermore, they are currently not in the country.”Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    “Wait, what? Hansen and Jenna have gone abroad too?” Raeleigh thought to herself.


    Raeleigh fixed her eyes on Seibert. “What did Mr. Santiago say?”


    “Mr. Santiago said that he’s not going to plead guilty. He seems very unwilling to cooperate with the police officers.”


    “He said that?” Raeleigh found it strange that Santiago would say such thing.


    “Has thewyer arrived? I want to talk to him.” Raeleigh did have the right to meet thewyer.


    “He’s only allowed to meet one client per visit. We discussed just now, that’s why I’m here to see you.”


    Seibert exined.


    After hearing Seibert’s exnation, Raeleigh instantly knew that something was amiss.


    She looked up at Seibert and asked, “Who on earth are you?”


    Siebert was stunned. “What do you mean?”


    “Who are you?”


    “My name is Seibert.”


    Seibert repeated, which amused Raeleigh. “I know your name is Seibert. What I mean is, who sent you here? Who are you working for?”


    “I don’t understand what you’re saying.”


    “You’ll know what I mean when I get out of this ce. Did youe here to ask me to plead guilty? You want me to persuade Santiago to do the same as well, right? After that, you’re going to kill me, aren’t you?”


    Raeleigh was not a fool and she knew that something was wrong. They had been trying to find the crux of the problem, but maybe the problem had been in front of them the entire time.
