Chapter 661
Even when she was further away, Alice's sobs and wails still rang in her ears...
Amelia then lowered her gaze to the floor, shut out her thoughts and continued walking.
At the police station.
In the reception room, a young policeman was on duty and holding up his head with one hand, staring at the
surveillance monitors in the office while half dozing off. Right then, a lithe and graceful figure drifted into his
sight.
The policeman widened his eyes at once when the beauty by the door smiled and gave him her attention. He
thought, "Am | seeing a pretty ghost in the middle of the night?"
"Miss?"
Watching the young officer as he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, Amelia chuckled and said, "Can |
ask if your leader is here?"
The officer then scratched his head and said, "Chief? He left as soon as he got off work!" "Oh, then are there any
other leaders around?" asked
Amelia again.
'Ah... There's one of them here, but he's resting in his private room now. May | ask who are you?" After a few
seconds of fumbling around, the officer finally remembered to ask about Amelia's identity. Amelia brushed
through her hair lightly with her fingers and said gently, "I'm Daniel Phillip's relative. | want to bring him away to
attend to something for the tbeing."
"What? Bring Daniel away?" The officer sprung up from his seat and stared at Amelia with unspeakable horror in
his eyes.
Amelia was confused at the sight of his exaggerated reaction. "Yes, why?"
The policeman put up an act by adjusting the things on his desk as he tried to calm himself down and asked,
"Excuse me... May | know what's your name?"
"My last nis Ramsay."
"Ramsay?" The policeman looked at her in awe, "Are you Daniel's lover?"
Amelia shook her head. "No, I'm her sister." After a pause, she then continued, "Young man, can you please call
that leader of yours and let us go this one time? | need Daniel for something extremely important!"
To which the officer replied, "But his temper is
horrible..."

"|..." The officer hesitated as if he was finding it hard to explain himself.
Amelia was afraid of wasting too much time, so she softened her tone and coaxed the policeman, "Young man,
police serves people. You don't have the heart to refusewhen the task is so easy, will you?" The policeman
gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Ramsay, | do want to help you, but the leader has ordered not to bother him with
more tasks after he gets off work!"
Amelia added, "A life depends on the phone call. Officer, please help me. If your leader is angry, I'll bear the
responsibility. | won't burden you!"
After a long while of pondering, the policeman still refused to make the call.
Just when Amelia was about to spiral into a pit of helplessness, a slightly older policeman walked into the
reception room. Glancing at Amelia's back, he said to the younger policeman, "It's tfor the next shift."
"Okay! Then I'll get off work first, see you tomorrow." As soon as the policeman finished speaking, he hurriedly
bowed his head towards the ground and left.
"Very well, boy. She's your girlfriend, right?" The older officer immediately regretted what he said the moment
the words left his mouth.
Because at the stime, Amelia had turned her head to look at him, her face looking charming and familiar.
"What are you talking about!" Hearing his senior's joke, the young policeman did not have tto care about
courtesy and yelled, "This is Ms. Ramsay, who had cto see her relative. She's not my girlfriend!"
"Alright!" The older officer reached out and gave the younger officer a light shove. He said, "You go and take a
rest, leave this to me!"
The younger policeman then left quickly as if relieved of a heavy burden.
"Have we met before" Amelia, who stayed behind, stretched out a hand to him.
"Yes..." The office straightened the brim of his hat and shook Amelia's hand with sshame. Then, he released
Amelia's hand in haste and said, "The last twe met, | forgot to introduce myself for | was in a rush because of
official business. My nis Sean Lewis. And Ms. Ramsay, you can just call me
Sean. Also, | was joking with my colleague just now, | hope you don't mind!"
This Officer Lewis, was one of the two policemen who went to The Ramsay Family to arrest Daniel that day.
When Amelia realized that it was him, she was delighted. "It's okay. | know you didn't mean it."
Sean finally relaxed, then asked with a smile, "By the way, my colleague said you're here to look for a relative.
May | ask which relative of yours is working at our police station?"
"No." Amelia shook her head. "I'm here for Daniel Phillips. Something happened to my little sister, and he must
settle it as the head of the family.
Officer Lewis, can you helpcontact your...leader?"

That sounded interesting.
Any ordinary man with the tiniest hint of ill intention in them was probably associating her words with the very
much beloved money. However, Sean only said, "Ms. Ramsay, | really can't help you!"
Amelia took a step back and pleaded

Amelia paused for a moment. "Officer Lewis, please be reasonable. | have the right to visit him."
Sean heaved a long sigh. "To be honest with you, Daniel isn't at this police station right now..."
Amelia was stunned. She then burst into laughter and said, "Since Daniel isn't in the police station, why can't
you acquit him of his charges?"

Sean's words had completely cut short of Amelia's incoming question.
With a deep sense of confusion, she asked, "How did Daniel end up having tuberculosis?"
"You're right, I'm puzzled too!" Sean scowled in deep thought.
Amelia did not care whether or not Daniel was dead or alive. But because of this, she would not be able to
accomplish the task that Brittany had asked of her.
