Chapter 573
Pausing for a moment, Ariah smiled. Feeling a little embarrassed, she replied, "It''s not much of a
big deal. It''s better to keep a low profile."
It was only now that she understood the reason Jimmy did not want to make their rtionship
public.
So he was trying to protect her?
"Ariah,e this way. I''ll take you to Captain''s office."
"Thank you."
Before they arrived at Jimmy''s office, Ben appeared. Immediately, David shouted at him, "Why
didn''t you answer your phone? What were you doing? Ariah is here! Where is Captain?"
Taken aback for a moment, Ben ran up to them. "Ariah, why are you here? This ce is filled with
filthy men. It''s not suitable for you toe here."
Ever since Ariah step foot in the police station, a lot of people were staring at them.
Even a thick-skinned person like Ariah felt a little embarrassed with all the stares she was receiving
from the policemen.
Ben and David quickly took Ariah to Jimmy''s office. "David, you take care of Ariah. I''ll pour her a
ss of water."
"No, it''s fine..."
Before Ariah could finish her sentence, Ben had already closed the door and left.
So, she was in Jimmy''s office now.
Ariah checked out the room. It was simple, clean, and tidy, which was very consistent with Jimmy''s
personality.
Ariah waited for a long time, but Ben did note back.
Why did it take so long for him to pour a ss of water?
Aftering out of Jimmy''s office, Ben went straight to Director Sherlock''s office.
Seeing Ben all nervous, Director Sherlock frowned and snapped, "What''s wrong?"
"Ariah is here."
"Who is Ariah?"
"Captain Hudson''s wife."
After pondering for a moment, Director Sherlock said, "Is she here to look for Jimmy?"
"Yes."
"Do something and ask her to leave first." After thinking for a while, Director Sherlock added,
"Send more people to keep watch on her. Watch her closely until Jimmy calls back."
Ben stood up straight and said, "Yes!"
"You may leave now. We''re done here."
Nodding, Ben turned around and was about to leave. However, right at that moment, the door of the
office was pushed open. After getting a good look at the personing in, Ben panicked.
Ariah was walking into the office with a suspicious look on her face, "Why do you need to keep
watch on me? What''s wrong with me?"
Director Sherlock frowned. The office area was open only to people who were working at the police
station. Supposedly, Ariah was not allowed to enter.
Instantly, Ben said, "Ariah, let''s talk outside..."
"Let''s talk right here." Shaking off Ben''s hand, Ariah gazed directly at Director Sherlock. "You''re
Jimmy''s superior, right? I''ll go straight to the point then. Where is Jimmy? I want to see him."
Director Sherlock waved his hand, and Ben immediately stepped aside. Pushing his chair back,
Director Sherlock then stood up. "Jimmy is currently dealing with some work out of office, so he''s
not here. You won''t find him here."
"What kind of work is he dealing with?" Ariah''s expression changed. "Is it dangerous?"
That dream popped up in her mind...
"Tell me!" Seeing them keeping quiet, she grew anxious. "Where the hell did he go? Why can''t I get
through to him?"
He was still fine in the hospital during the day just now. He even said that he would head back to the
hospital after going away for a while.
But now she could not even get in touch with him.
Ariah was very anxious. "Tell me the truth. Is he in danger now?"
"He''s not in danger. Don''t overthink it." Seeing Ariah growing concerned, Director Sherlock
immediatelyforted her.
However, Ariah did not believe his words at all. She shifted her gaze and looked at Ben, "You, tell
me, where did Jimmy go? Tell me."
Of course, Ben did not dare to talk nonsense, as his superior was present. He could only shake his
head repeatedly.
Taking a deep breath, Ariah grabbed a chair and sat down. "Alright, I''ll wait here until you guys are
ready to talk."

She looked like she would not be leaving until they spill the truth.
Seeing that, both Ben and David was speechless.
They did not expect Ariah would behave this way.
Frustrated, Director Sherlock pinched his eyebrows. "You can''t do this..."
Ariah shouted, "I don''t care!"
She left everyone in the room speechless.
After some time, Director Sherlock had no choice but topromise. Sighing, he said, "You two
may leave first."
With that, David and Ben turned around and left.
After pondering for a moment, Director Sherlock slowly said, "You''re the first person in history who
had been in close contact with Kevin but was left unharmed."
In the past, every person who was targeted by Kevin woulde to a bad end.
Not only was Ariah kidnapped by Kevin, but she was also in close contact with him for quite a long
time and was not injured at all.
"Kevin Bradbury?" Ariah frowned. Why was he bringing up that guy again? "Wasn''t he arrested?"
"He was indeed arrested." Director Sherlock pulled out a chair and sat down. After pausing for a
moment, he said, "But he disappeared three hours ago."
What?
Shocked, Ariah turned ashen-faced.
"How did he disappear? Wasn''t he locked up?"
Ariah''s heart was in a mess. "A felon like him shouldn''t be able to get away this easily! Why did he
disappear all of a sudden?"
Director Sherlock did not hide the truth from her. "Ro released him!"
At once, Ariah''s face went nk. Ro...
"Why... why did he do that?"
Shaking his head, Director Sherlock said, "He and Kevin disappeared together, so Jimmy is out
looking for them now. Before he left, he specifically told me to keep an extra watch on you."
Again, Kevin disappeared into thin air.
Ariah was on tenterhooks. "He will definitely take revenge on Jimmy. Why did you ask Jimmy to go
look for him? What if something bad happens?"
Once again, the dream popped up in her mind.
Covering her face, Ariah said, "Kevin literally detests Jimmy. Now that he escaped, Jimmy will
definitely be in danger..."
"We are aware of this as well. But the best way to capture Kevin now is for Jimmy to look for him.
Only then, Kevin would give himself away. Jimmy knows Kevin best, so he will know where Kevin
might be hiding."
Ariah was frozen to her seat. After a long while, she slowly looked up. "Jimmy didn''t answer my call,
and I''m worried about him. Can you please... give him a call?"
She only wanted to make sure that he was safe.
Sighing, Director Sherlock answered. "He must have rejected your call, because he didn''t want you
to be worried. You''re a smartdy. He knows that you will sense something wrong if he picks up
your call, so he intentionally didn''t pick up."
After pausing for a moment, he took out his mobile phone and said, "Anyway, I was about to call
him to ask about his progress. I''ll put him on speaker so that you can listen to his voice."
Immediately, Ariah jolted from her seat, "Thank you."
The phone was connected, and it started beeping.
However, there was no response from the other side of the phone.
Once again, Ariah''s heart started racing.
Momentster...
"Hello," a deep voice rang out.
It was Jimmy''s voice.
Immediately, Ariah let out a long sigh of relief. Judging by his voice, he seemed to be fine.
Director Sherlock cleared his throat. "How is everything going on there? Have you got in touch with
Ro?" "We can''t reach them, but we''ve narrowed down a few locations. I brought some men with
me, and we''re about to head to the next location."
However, Jimmy did not tell Sherlock that the chances of finding Kevin and Ro were slim.
If Ro were going to let Jimmy and his men find Kevin so easily, he would not have released Kevin
in the first ce.
"Don''t push yourself too much. It''s best if you can find him, but don''t be discouraged if you can''t."
"Yes, sir!"
Usually, Director Sherlock would hang up the phone by now. However, not only did he not hang up,
he added, "Are you okay? Take care of yourself and don''t let others worry about you."
Jimmy was a smart guy. A thought shed through his mind, and he immediately understood
something.
"Is Ariah next to you?"
