Chapter 701

A few officers recognized the prominent figure of the Holden family and became uneasy.

Well… Mister Jeremy, please don’t make our job difficult. We’re just following the procedures… ”

The man snorted, his ink–black eyebrows dangerously raised. “Following procedures? Just

based on the one–sided words of the Riveras, you want to take my wife as a murder suspect? Is there an arrest

warrant?”

What? This girl named Corinne was actually Mister Jeremy’s wife?!

The officers were officially stumped.

When they saw this girl standing beside Mister Jeremy, they thought she was just a new lover he happened to bring

along. They never expected her to be his legitimate wife!

They could not afford to offend her. Should Miss Corinne truly be innocent, not only would their fate be at stake, but

even their department could not bear the consequences!

Lucas could sense that the police were wary of the Holdens. His brow furrowed as he stepped forward, saying,

“Jeremy, the police only want to take Corinne with them for further questioning; they’re not trying to arrest her! If

she is truly innocent, the police will naturally let her go home. Don’t you respect the law here?”

Jeremy coldly glanced at him, and both sides were at a standoff. It was difficult for the police to mediate.

At that moment, Lucas‘ phone suddenly vibrated. He softened his sharp gaze, took out his phone, and checked. It

was a call from Edmund.

Worried that something was wrong with the child’s condition, Lucas did not hesitate and immediately stepped aside

to answer the call.

Lucas asked, “What’s wrong? How is the child doing now?”

Edmund hurriedly replied, “Mister Lucas, the child is fine. You don’t need to worry!”

Upon hearing that the child was okay, Lucas‘ brow slightly relaxed. “Alright. Is there anything. else?”

Edmund remained silent for a few seconds before speaking with a somewhat complicated tone, “Mister Lucas, Joey

just said that it wasn’t Corinne who harmed him, so….I thought I should tell you that to avoid wrongly accusing Miss

Corinne.”

Lucas‘ brow furrowed again, his clear eyes tightening. “Joey said that? How did he say it?”

Edmund gave a detailed account of Joey’s situation to Lucas.

After ending the call, Lucas narrowed his eyes with a complex expression before turning around. His expression was

heavy as he said, “Officers, you can go back for now. Today’s incident was just a misunderstanding. I apologize for

having you come here for nothing.”

The sudden turn of events caught everyone off–guard.

The police, on the other hand, felt relieved upon hearing that as they felt they were stuck in a difficult position. After

all, both the Riveras and Holdens were not easy to deal with.

If this incident turned out to be a misunderstanding and both sides were willing to settle it privately, they would

have fewer troubles.

The leading officer waved it off. “It’s alright. If there’s any further development, feel free to contact us anytime.”

Lucas courteously nodded. “Certainly. Someone, escort the officers properly.”

A servant promptly stepped forward, courteously leading the police officers out.

Anya looked bewildered as she watched the officers leave so easily. She could not help but ask in dissatisfaction,

“Brother, why did you let the police go just like that? Joey was deliberately harmed today! I saw it with my own

eyes. How can it be a misunderstanding?”
