“No way! I can’t let my daughter go to jail! She’s so young. She still has so much life ahead of her. She can’t be stuck in jail!” Olivia started. ranting like a madwoman.
Connor, on the other hand, appeared to be calmer. While he was furious with his daughter. for threatening Ellen, he also wanted to protect her reputation and prevent her from having a criminal record.
Soon, the police had a full conversation with the couple and showed them all the evidence of Selena’s criminal activities. During the conversation, Olivia kept crying and secretly. blamed Ellen for everything.
It’s just a few phone calls and some scary pictures. Is Ellen really suing Lena for that? This is so unfair! It’s so obvious that she is being this ruthless to Lena just to play revenge on us.
Regardless of how much they begged, they were unable to see Selena. However, Connor knew what he had to do next. He had to find Ellen and convince her to drop the charges. against his daughter. No matter what, they needed to settle the matter privately to avoid any prison time.
“That little b*tch! We gave her five million. What more does she want? She’s still not sparing us!” As soon as Olivia left the police station, she vented her anger.
Hearing that, Connor turned and glared at her. “Shut up! We still need to beg Ellen now! Lena is just like you, stubborn and refusing to admit her mistakes.”
Suddenly, she felt helpless. Besides her husband, she didn’t have anyone else to rely on. When she was rich, her relatives from her mother’s side kept asking her for money, but she never lent them any.
Eventually, her relatives stopped talking to her altogether. Now, she realized that she had no reliable people to turn to other than her daughter and husband. “I’m just frustrated, Connor. Find a way to save Lena. She can’t go to jail!”
After Connor left the police station, he immediately took out his phone and dialed Ellen’s number. However, the prompt on the other end said that her phone was turned off.
“Ellen’s phone is off. Who knows where she is. at this time?” He sighed in frustration. “She must have done it on purpose. She just doesn’t want to help us bail out Lena,” she said furiously.
But at this moment, Ellen was resting in Jared’s office. As for her phone, Jared had asked her to turn it off for a few days and gave her a new one with only his number stored in it. If there was anything, she just needed to contact him because there were no good people around her.
However, she knew that Jared had helped her find the culprit and left the matter for the lawyers of the Presgrave Group to handle. She didn’t need to participate, but the culprit would still need to pay the price.
She came out of the room and wanted to go to the washroom. It was not a problem since she was familiar with the place. Just as she entered the washroom cubicle, she heard footsteps coming in. It was two female employees who were chatting as they entered.
“I heard that President Presgrave brought Ellen here. Who would have thought she had such an ability? She actually became President Presgrave’s girlfriend!”
“I’m also puzzled. What did she do to capture President Presgrave’s heart? You know, there are plenty of women out there who are prettier, wealthier, and more accomplished than her. Other than being young and pretty, she seems to have nothing else going for her.”
“I know right! She was just serving tea and coffee when she was working here last time, but she got paid so much and was treated the same as us. This is so unfair!”
“Sigh! Women who rely on their looks to get ahead never end up well. There’s a saying. ‘those who use beauty to win love will lose both beauty and love’. I bet in a few years, President Presgrave will tire of her.”
“I think so too. After all, being the wife of a wealthy family isn’t something that an innocent person can handle. And if you want to capture a man like President Presgrave, besides being beautiful, you need to have tricks up your sleeve and be capable on your own. Otherwise, when he dumps you one day, all you’ll be able to do is cry.”
