Chapter 377: He Deserved to be Arrested
After going to the police station and identifying the people and going through the process, nothing more happened to Vanessa.
She was just curious about the identity of these people and wanted to know if they were really what she thought they were. Sitting outside, drinking from a disposable cup, Vanessa was a little distracted.
After waiting for more than an hour, the interrogation man came out with a sombre look on his face.
It did not seem to be going well.
-What’s going on?
Vanessa asked as she frowned and stood up.
The interrogating policeman sighed and said:
These people are very hard-headed, they bite off more than they can chew, and one by one they seem emboldened. And I’m not afraid to tell you that all these people must have some record, and it may be a little difficult for you to get any reasonable compensation or punishment.
Perhaps because of her condition, the other party did not say anything explicitly, but it was enough for Vanessa to notice.
It really did seem to be the same official with whom the previous owner of the inn had had problems last time.
If that was the case, it was a problem.
This was the other side’s territory and she was just an outsider with no background. It would be very difficult for the inn to run smoothly and not have this kind of problem again.
But was he supposed to just give up?
With Vanessa’s pride, that was not possible.
-How long can these people be held?
At the moment, they can only be held for twenty-four hours. Wait for the paperwork behind them to be completed before you can do anything else with them, but you know, because the people behind them are there….Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Vanessa nodded and said no more.
They were all adults, more or less aware of the dark side of society.
Such criticism is common, not just in one place, and Vanessa knows this in her heart, but she does not want to give up. Firstly, it was not in her vocabulary to give up, and secondly, Mercedes liked this place very much.
She also had high hopes for the inn, and Vanessa did not want to disappoint her.
-I’m going back first.
It was better to rethink this.
If that didn’t work, he would have to go to Enrique and see if his contacts could help.
When she returned to the hotel, Vanessa did not let herself be seen in front of Mercedes, and tried to speak as lightly as possible, choosing a few nice things to say to ease her mind. When she was left alone, she became worried.
Oops, headache.
He thought things were going to be bad and difficult to solve, but who would have thought that the next day he would have great news.
-Tsk, those who are civil servants today are really, coincidentally a petty civil servant wants to embezzle. This man even colluded with the local triad gang, how dare he. Such a poisonous tumour deserves to be caught.
Mercedes’ habit of reading the newspaper had moved to this place.
At the moment he was just reading the paper and expressing his indignation in passing.
Vanessa glanced around as she sat down to breakfast and, seeing a familiar face, instantly went over to skim the paper.
Indeed, it was him!
This was good, the gangsters’ sponsors had fallen, and without their umbrella, they could definitely be punished severely this time. Even if they got out of jail by then, they wouldn’t dare cause trouble in their inn again.
This is great news.
Vanessa was in a very good mood, so after breakfast she took Mercedes for a walk outside and then went to the police station herself.
As expected, the interrogation went much more smoothly.
The other party did not dare to hide anything and gave a full confession.
They were arrested and convicted.
The matter was resolved in just three days, and concerns were fully resolved.
Although the compensation received was not much, at least there were no hidden problems to worry about in the future. The inn is being redecorated and Mercedes is in a better mood.
While all was well in Dorencia, Pacifica City was in a stormy situation.
-Sir, are you all right?
Mateo asked with an anxious look on his face, fearing that something was wrong with Dylan.
-Yes.
Shaking the blood off his arm, Dylan looked sideways at the wound, it wasn’t deep, so it was nothing.
-Still no luck?
She asked about the lair of the man hiding behind it.
Matthew bowed his head guiltily:
-Not yet.
-Keep looking.
Dylan said coolly, immediately taking off his cut shirt and reaching out to have the wound dressed. It wasn’t deep, but it was quite long and would probably need stitches. He didn’t even look at it, didn’t even frown.
-What about Brisa? Any news?
It was exhausting enough to have to find the man behind the curtain’s lair and send someone to look for Brisa, the manpower wouldn’t stretch, but there was a lot to do.
-I have a little clue, but it’s not particularly clear yet.
-Keep digging then.
He had so much to do at the time that his plans for Vincent had to be put on hold.
-Vicente is not going to let this go, I’m afraid he’ll be back in person before too long. It is important that Gerardo’s problems are solved, otherwise there will only be more problems.
Whether it was Brisa or the Leoz family, it was all trouble.
Dylan frowned at the thought.
I was beginning to miss the days with Vanessa.
Easy and pleasant.
His problems in Dorencia were over, he had nothing to worry about, and Vanessa and Mercedes must be having a particularly good time, which he envied even thinking about it.
I wanted everything to work out and to go with her.
Dylan’s cold, stern eyes softened at the thought of Vanessa.
Matthew glanced at him and knew who he was thinking of.
Surely, the power of love was great, even the cold knight could show such a tender look.
What a pity it would be if we could not be together in the future.
After the treatment, Mateo led us out.
Dylan leaned back on the couch, squinting. Now he usually lived in the villa where Vanessa used to be, and the only company around him was the robot Fatty.
The house was so big that for the first time he felt empty and uncomfortable.
That time on the phone, Dylan wanted to call Vanessa and held back.
Her contact details had changed, and for Dylan to take the initiative to call would be to tell Vanessa that he knew all about her. By then kitty would be running for sure, and he didn’t want to make her run again.
Never mind, be patient.
Dylan opened his mailbox and looked at the photos and videos.
Vanessa’s smile brightened and the irritation in Dylan’s heart disappeared.
-I miss you.
When he opened the video and saw the touching Vanessa, the thoughts in his heart became more and more violent.
Her self-control ran away from home, hating the fact that she couldn’t leave everything and go with Vanessa.
Hug her, kiss her!
Reaching out and pressing pause, Dylan traced Vanessa’s features with his fingertips, which finally came to rest at the corner of her upturned lips.
Clearly separated from the screen, he felt he was actually touching the woman he had been thinking about.
-Wait for me again, it will be quick.
Dylan muttered to the screen.
