Chapter 99
Just as Audrey arrived at her apartment building, her phone rang.
She saw an unfamiliar number.
Who would call her at this hour?
"Hello?"
"Hello, this is Spring District Police Station."
The police station called her? For what?
"Well, can I help you?"
"Are you Simon's relative? Simon is involved in a fight. Please come to the police station."
...
Before the taxi left, Audrey stopped it again and hurried to Spring District Police Station.
...
A quarrel broke out in the police station. One was sitting calmly in front of the policeman with his legs crossed, waiting for the policeman to finish the call.
After the call, the policeman found Simon looked so calm. He then tapped on the table with his fingers.
"Hey, Simon, why were you fighting with them?"
"When will Audrey arrive?" Simon did not answer.
"In half an hour. Wait. You should answer my questions first. Why did you fight with them?" Pulling a face, the policeman said.
Simon sat leisurely in his chair.
"I won't say anything until she comes."
...
...
When Audrey arrived, only Simon was left in the police station, and the rest were bailed by their families.
After Audrey entered, someone asked, "Who are you?"
"Hello, I'm Audrey, Simon's aunt. One policeman called me over."
When the policeman heard that Audrey was Simon's aunt, he excitedly invited her in.
"There you're. Come in!"

Why was the policeman so eager for her arrival?
After Audrey entered the police station, she saw Simon at a glance.
Simon's face and body were covered in bruises, including a corner of his eyes. At the sight of Simon, who was in a sorry state, Audrey couldn't help but stroke her forehead with upset.
How naught this kid was!
Simon's eyes lit up when he saw Audrey.
Audrey did not even look at Simon as she walked over to the policeman with a humble attitude.
"Hello, I'm Simon's aunt."
Audrey's got a glib tongue. After she mentioned that Bryson was Simon's uncle, the police politely escorted Simon and Audrey out.
The policeman kept explaining, "Ms. Audrey, Simon was an innocent victim in the fight, but he didn't defend himself. Therefore, we had no choice but to detain him in the police station. If he had explained it clearly earlier, we wouldn't have kept him."
Audrey smiled, "I will teach him a lesson later. I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It doesn't matter. As policemen, we naturally have to serve the citizens."
Simon muttered in a low voice, "I accidentally touched them? I just didn't like them, so I deliberately hit them."
...
...
Audrey was upset. Could this troublesome kid not cause her any more trouble?
Audrey awkwardly explained to the police, "My nephew likes to joke. Bye."
The policeman coughed softly. "Alright. Goodbye!"
...
After leaving the police station, Audrey touched her forehead and felt cold sweat. Just now, she was so frightened that her heart almost pounded out of her chest.
The problem had been settled. But Simon said that he deliberately hit those guys.
What a troublesome kid!
Seeing that there was no one around, Audrey crossed her arms around her chest and put on the airs of an elder. "What's wrong with you? Why did you get into a fight?"
Simon returned, "I just said I didn't like them."
...
A tall figure walked towards them.
It was none other than Bryson.
Of course, in no way would Simon call him over.
When Simon saw Bryson, his face instantly turned pale. He gritted his teeth and looked at Audrey. "I asked someone to call you. Why did you get him involved?"
Just as Simon had expected, Audrey called over Bryson. On the way to the police station, Audrey called Bryson. She was afraid that she would not be able to handle the problem. If Simon was detained, she didn't know how to explain it to Kylee. If Bryson was around, everything would go smoothly.
Audrey rolled her eyes at Simon. "No matter what, I'm only your fake aunt. I called him over because I was afraid that you would be detained tonight."
Simon muttered, "I'd rather stay in prison than see him."
In formal clothes, Bryson was rushing over. With a Bluetooth headset on his ear, he was talking on the phone. When he came up to Simon and Audrey, he just finished the call and removed the Bluetooth headset from his ear.
Seeing Bryson standing in front of him, Simon subconsciously lowered his head and hid behind Audrey to avoid Bryson's gaze.
Standing in front of them, Bryson gently gazed at Audrey. "The secretary has sent some information to you this afternoon. Have you read it?"
Audrey hurriedly replied, "Yes, I've. But I haven't finished yet. I'll read the rest after I return to the company from the court tomorrow afternoon."
"Will you appear in court tomorrow?"
"Yes, there is a case of economic dispute to be heard tomorrow, so I have to go to the court tomorrow morning. The case will end at noon."
Bryson raised his eyebrows slightly.
"You are good. The trial is just a formality."
...
Bryson spoke highly of her, so Audrey felt flattered, although she had complete confidence that she would win the trial tomorrow. Bryson did not know anything, but he believed that she would win.
She was glad to hear this.
"I'm not absolutely certain to win."
"But I believe that you will!" Bryson stared at her eyes.
...
If Bryson continued praising her, she would get carried away. Moreover, when Bryson said this, he was so serious that no one would think that he was fawning on Audrey.
Audrey's heart beat wildly again.
She coughed softly and quickly changed the topic. "Well, your nephew is fine. The police have just confirmed that he did not commit any crime, so he was released without charge."
Simon felt that after Audrey finished, Bryson's gaze fell on him.
However, Bryson's gaze was as cold as ice under the Arctic Ocean.
