Chapter 201 Too Late to Regret


    Ewan was so shaken by the situation that his phone nearly sl*pped out of his hand. What had urred


    to prompt the arrival of the police and officers from the Industry and Commerce Bureau?


    Ewan pretended to be calm and stepped forward. “How can I help you…”


    However, the police officers ignored Ewan. They went straight to Wanda and presented their


    identification. “Are you Wanda Scott?”


    “Yes.”


    “We need your cooperation for an investigation. Pleasee with us.”


    Wanda assumed that he was referring to Wynter’s incident. Adam had mentioned that someone would


    visit her regarding the matter..


    So, she wasn’t worried and even felt at ease. “Is Captain Weissman the one who sent you all? Come


    on, sit down and have some drinks first. You’ve all worked so hard this time. If it weren’t for you all-”


    “We’ll discuss the case further back at the police station,” the police officer said sternly. “You have the


    right to remain silent now.”


    Only then did Wanda realize something was amiss. “Are you all from the Ravenwood Police precinct?”


    The police officers neither confirmed nor denied that fact. They proceeded to escort her away. Wanda


    started to panic. She turned back and looked at Ewan.


    Ewan had been intercepted by the officers from the Industry and Commerce Bureau. “We need to


    inspect


    some ounts.”


    Initially, Wanda didn’t think much of it. She assumed everything would be fine, especially with Adam’s


    presence. However, as she got into the police car, she realized something was really wrong.


    This didn’t seem like what was agreed upon earlier. They hadn’t mentioned anything about bailing


    someone out. Instead, she was treated more like a suspect!


    Wanda’s heart sank. She shouted, “I want to see Captain Weissman! I want to call mywyer!”


    However, the car door had already been closed.


    In the center of the business district, and full view of the public, Wanda exited the Yates Group’s office


    and was escorted into the police car.


    The Yates family’spany wasn’t the onlypany in the vast office building. Numerous other


    companies that were partners with the Yates group shared the same building.


    The news of Mrs. Yates‘ arrest spread in less than three minutes! In the vast office building housing


    dozens ofpanies, the incident was the talk of the town.


    The speed of dissemination due to the inte was rapid, especially when it came to gossip.


    Before Ewan could resolve matters with the Industry and Commerce Bureau, calls from their business


    Chapter 201 Too Late to Regret:


    partners started pouring in. They all questioned if there were any potential risks involved.


    Even the small investors that they had previously engaged with reached out.


    “Mr. Yates, there’s no need to hide from us anymore. The entire business district of Southdale knows.


    about your wife’s arrest.”


    “What’s really going on!”


    Ewan pondered and recalled what Wanda had said earlier. He then exined, “There’s nothing wrong


    my wife, so there’s no need to be concerned about this.


    with


    “It’s all because of our previous adopted daughter, who insisted on doing medical livestreams. She’s


    the one who had been arrested. My wife and I are simply cooperating with the investigation.”


    “Yes, there’s absolutely no risk involved. Don’t worry, Mr. Larsen. I can assure you of that.”


    “We havepletely severed ties with that girl. Yes, she won’t affect us.”


    *Of course. Ourpany will announce once there’s any oue. Please be rest assured.”


    This exnation temporarily appeased some of the smallpanies. However, the scrutiny from the


    Industry and Commerce Bureau seemed endless.


    There were internal issues within the Yates Group. Ewan was worried that the officers might uncover

    something.


    At this moment, he couldn’t care less about Wanda’s situation. He simply arranged for awyer to


    apany her.


    Despite their concerns, the couple still had some confidence in the situation. Even in the worst–case


    scenario, if the Wynter chose to expose the Yates group, with Adam’s presence, they believed


    everything


    could be settled easily.


    It was the scrutiny of the Industry and Commerce Bureau that posed the greatest challenge.


    Ewan had meticulously nned everything–or so he thought. He hadn’t anticipated Wanda’s immediate


    panic as soon as she arrived at the police station. None of the people she knew were present.


    That wasn’t even the main issue. The main concern was that the auxiliary police officer she knew was


    being interrogated in the interrogation room!
