Chapter 662
Under Amelia's complex expression, Sean rubbed his hands together and discussed in a pleasant tone, "Ms.
Ramsay, the public still doesn't know about this. I've just leaked to you an internal secret, | hope you won't
mention anything about it after you leave. Otherwise, others will accuse us of abusing the criminals in the police
station."
Amelia lowered her eyelashes and replied softly, "I know. Thank you, Officer Lewis."
"You're welcome. | didn't really help you with much," said Sean in embarrassment.
Amelia nodded then said, "Then, Officer Lewis, I'll get going now. Goodbye!"
Frustration crossed her eyes the moments she turned around to leave. She wanted to help Brittany, but Daniel's
illness was just so untimely.
Tuberculosis was infectious. And with Daniel's current state, even if she found the hospital he was in, she would
not be able to convince the doctors to let him out of the quarantine ward.
When Amelia disappeared through the door, Sean immediately picked up the landline on his office desk and
dialled a number.
Sean waited for quite a while in the silence of the night before he finally heard a sleepy cry from the other side,
"Hello?"
Sean did not waste any tand got straight to the point. "Chief, just now Daniel's sister cby our place and
asked to meet him..." "Meet Daniel?" The chief's sluggish voice immediately turned serious. "Then did you tell
her that Daniel was infected with tuberculosis?"
"1 did, she then toldshe understood and left."
"Before she left, did she ask about anything else?
Like, which hospital is Daniel in right now?"
"No, even if she asked me, I really have no clue about it."
"That's great! If anyone else asks about Daniel in the future, tell the sthing to them!"
"Noted, Chief!"
"You've done a good job, Sean!"
"Thank you for your compliment!" Sean was elated. Then he added, "It's getting late now. | won't disturb you any
longer. We'll end it here first?" "Okay, then I'll hang up!"
In the outskirts of Northville, in an independent villa.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe phone on the bedside table rang, breaking the silence of the night and disturbing the handsman who
was next to a woman from his sleep. Sitting up from the bed, the man reached out his hand to turn on the
bedside lamp in the dark, then found his glasses beside the pillow and put it on. Looking back at the woman
lying beside him, she was not even stirred by her cell phone ringing.
Raising his hand, he put one hand on the woman's arm, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Ms.
Long, your phone is ringing."
The man's voice seemed to have smagical power in it, because after calling out to her twice, Sarah shifted
in her sleep and slowly opened her eyes...
Seeing the man's face was only inches away from hers, she flashed a lazy smile and could not help but reach out
to put her arms around his neck, taking the initiative to send a passionate kiss his way.
At the sight of Sarah pushing herself up to embrace him, the look in the man's eyes behind the spectacles
flickered.
In the next second, he bowed his head and lightly pecked on her red lips. Then, he tried to say in a doting tone,
"Pick up your phone first. | don't like to be interrupted by noise when | kiss."
"Okay,too," agreed Sarah. She then stretched one hand out and felt around the surface of the bedside table
next to her for the phone.
She picked up the call without even looking at it and scolded in extrimpatience, "What is your problem?
Why are you callingat this time!"
"Ms. Long, it's me. I'm Johnathan Quarles from the Police Station."
Sarah was taken aback by the new information and quickly softened her tone, asking delicately, "Oh, it's Chief
Quarles... I'm sorry, | was sleeping just now and didn't pay attention to the caller ID when | picked up my phone.
Ahem, do you have something to tell me? I'm listening..."
While Sarah talked on the phone, the gentleman beside her adjusted his glasses and leaned agaist the head of
the bed in silence.
"It's like this..." Johnathan did not take offence from Sarah's rude greeting and instead explained to her the
purpose of his call. Sarah sneered after hearing him. "Okay... | know now. Thank you for telling me, Chief
Quarles..."
Johnathan then asked cautiously, "The woman introduced herself as Daniel's sister, but to my knowledge, Daniel
has only one younger brother. So, she must be Daniel's sister-in-law, right? This woman has The Hopper Family
supporting her behind her back, and if she investigates into Daniel's illness, I'm afraid that it's only a matter of
tbefore the truth is revealed..."
Sarah dipped her head and twiddled at her fingernails with her thumb. She then said casually, "We've agreed
that we'll first use the excuse of the disease to delay the matter first. But if the truth leaks out, I'll send him back
to you. As for the authenticity of the illness, won't it be done with if | ask a doctor to forge a report for me?"

Sarah giggled faintly and said nonchalantly, "Of course, | appreciate your kindness. When you're free, I'll
definitely make a personal visit to your place."

Faced with Sarah's sudden change in demeanor, Daniel scowled.
Noticing his silence, Sarah raised her chin and asked aggressively, "How dare you, Daniel! Did you pull

Sarah's stern expression eased up at once.
She was deliberately trying to scare Daniel just now. If he had the tiniest sliver of a guilty conscience, he would
have no doubt confessed everything to her at once.
However, other than his initial cluelessness, Daniel remained relatively composed. The logic behind his words
was clear too, which was enough to exclude the possibility that he was pulling her leg.
Daniel looked at Ms. Long as he asked, "What happened? Why do you look so shocked?"
Her grip around her phone tightened, then she said in a low voice, "Do you know who just called me?"
Daniel's gaze swept across Sarah's phone screen. "I heard you call him 'Chief Quarles'."
Sarah nodded. "Yes! It was him! He toldthat a woman, which is your wife's half-sister, suddenly cto the
police station and said that she wanted to see you and take you away! Don't you find it strange?"
