Chapter 1148
Blake pondered, ‘When Madelyn left, she had blood on her body.
Could it be that the blood wasn’t hers but Mr. Jardin’s?’
The officer asked, “Ms. Dion, is there anything else you want to say?”
Blake pursed her lips. She thought of Liam and asked, “Can I talk to my friend for a
moment?”
“Until your suspicion is cleared, neither you nor your friend can leave
unless someone can vouch that this has nothing to do with you two,” the officer
responded.
The only person Blake could think of who could help them was Kevin.
Blake believed only Kevin knew exactly what happened in the room at
that time.
She did not expect to end up dragging Liam into this.
She called Kevin. After half a minute of ringing, he still did not answer
the call.
Blake persistently dialed over and over again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFinally, when she called, she was notified that Kevin’s phone was
switched off.
She thought, ‘Kevin must think that Mr. Jardin’s injury was related to
me, so he doesn’t want to see me now.’
Feeling disappointed, Blake hung up the call. “Do we have to wait fo
someone to bail us out before we can leave?”
The officer replied, “This matter is serious. We still need to get in touch with the people
from Jardin Corporation and prove that it has nothing to do with you two.”
Blake quickly said, “The person outside is the editor-in-chief of our company. He’s also the
person in charge of StartReading. He definitely has nothing to do with this. His health
condition isn’t quite
good. Can you let him leave? I’ll stay.”
After handing over the documents, the female police officer on the
side glanced at them before closing the file, “We’ll handle this matter.”
In the detention room, Olivia took Liam out of the police station after
she learned about the situation, acting as the guarantor.
Liam asked, “How is she doing?”
The officer replied, “I’m sorry, we can’t disclose her situation. You can
leave if there’s nothing else.”
Seeing that the police officer was about to leave, Liam immediately
grabbed her, “What can I do to get her out? I can be her guarantor
The officer responded, “The person injured is the CEO of the Jardir
Corporation. The situation isn’t as simple as you think.
“Are you her boyfriend?”
Liam did not answer, nor did he deny it.
The female officer took it as a yes.
So, she said, “Let’s wait for some news. The fate of the CEO of Jard Corporation is still
uncertain. You can go back and wait for the new
When she’s free to leave, we’ll call you.”
Olivia said, “You still have the mood to meddle in another person’s affairs? Last time, I
mentioned that your book has been adapted into a show. We’re planning a press
conference, and the organizer wants you to attend in person. This time, I hope you can
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmattend too. Showing yourself to the public is good for you.”
Liam looked away indifferently, “Thank you for your trouble. I’ll consider it. You can go
back now.”
Olivia frowned. She had known Liam for many years. He had always been aloof, never this
caring for anyone.
She said, “Liam, we’re just ordinary people. Blake is the precious
daughter of the Dion family of Ventropolis. People like them won’t
take relationships with us seriously. If you continue behaving this
way, you’ll be the one getting hurt.
“After such a long time, you should’ve figured out that Blake likes
someone else.”
Liam sat on a bench outside the police station, ignoring her.
Olivia was disappointed to see Liam being so stubborn.
She said, “Fine, I can’t persuade you. If you want to wait, you may continue waiting. Liam,
I hope you understand that girls like her won be interested in you if you don’t have a
powerful background. If yo keep deceiving yourself, there’s nothing I can do.”
