Chapter 78 This Must Be a Misunderstanding
Lauren was even more alarmed as she quickly begged for mercy. “Yes, yes, Officer, this must be a misunderstanding!”
However, the police officer still had a strict attitude. “It doesn’t matter whether or not it is a misunderstanding. Just come with us to the station. We’ll find out the truth through the investigation.”
His attitude clearly implied that there was no negotiation allowed.
Silas felt chagrin in his heart. He never thought that the police would be so uncompromising, so he was a bit exasperated. Then he suddenly thought about how everything was because of Tessa, immediately turning his head to glare at her. “Tessa, you d*mn girl! You’re really something now, aren’t you?! Not only did you not help when something happened at home, but you even called the police to arrest your own father. You! You animal! You’re simply traitorous!”
Hearing this, Tessa sharply glared back at him. She laughed coldly and replied, “Mr. Reinhart, don’t you feel guilty when you say this? Do you still remember how my brother and I were kicked out of the house by you many years ago, Mr. Reinhart? At that time, I begged you to save my brother’s life, but you didn’t care, and now you are trying to accuse me of being the traitor of the family? I’m sorry, but you’re even better at that than I am! And as far as acting like an animal is concerned, you seem to be better at that than me too, right? You didn’t care about my brother’s life in the first place, but now that you see he is of use, you hurriedly try to acknowledge him as one of you. I think you are the only one who could be shameless enough to kidnap your own son! Honestly, even if you are not ashamed about it, I’m freaking ashamed of you!”
“You!” Upon hearing this, Silas was so furious he almost exploded. “Tessa, I dare you to say it again!”
Tessa’s eyebrows gradually tightened in ruthlessness. “What if I do? Everyone can see what kind of person you really are! Besides, let me warn you, if this kind of thing happens again, I will never let you go! Let’s go!”
After saying that, she leaned down and picked up Timothy, ready to send her brother to the hospital. The police also came forward without saying anything and wanted to take Silas and Lauren away. Silas looked flustered as he thought that he was the chairman of the Reinhart Group after all.
If word got out that I was brought to the police station today, what would outsiders think?
Thinking of this, he immediately shouted loudly and angrily, “Tessa, stop right there! Are you sure you want to do this to me? I am your father! If you treat me like this, aren’t you afraid of karma?”
When Tessa heard the words, she paused and turned back, smiling sarcastically. “Really? I don’t know if I’ll suffer karma, but at least I know that it’s time for you to be punished for all the terrible things you have done in the past now! Enjoy it; it’s all your own doing!”
After saying that, she picked up her brother and left without looking back. No matter how much Silas and Lauren shouted behind her, she no longer paid any attention.
These idiots! Would they do what they did if they knew they would face this today?
Soon, all the people walked out of the house. At this time, the luxurious dark gray Rolls-Royce was still waiting at the roadside. After hesitating for a while, Tessa slowly walked over with her brother and gently knocked on the car window. The car window slid down, revealing Nicholas’s impeccable face and powerful aura.
Biting her lip subconsciously, Tessa felt some apprehension but still asked, “President Sawyer, it’s hard to hail a cab in this neighborhood, so will you please send us to the hospital?”
Nicholas raised his indifferent gaze and glanced at Timothy’s blood-stained forehead, then let them in without saying a word. At this time, Henry also followed along. He was still clutching the laptop in his hands, and there were bruises on him. Thus, he went to the hospital together with the others.
On the other hand, Silas and Lauren were also escorted to the police car without pity. Sophia had never seen this scene before, so she felt terrified in her heart. She hurriedly caught up with them, calling out desperately, “Dad, Mom!”
“Sophia!” Lauren’s eyes brimmed with tears. Silas, on the other hand, was calmer. Before he left, he made sure to tell her daughter what to do next.
“Sophia, it’s okay. Talk to Mr. Fisher, our company’s lawyer, and have him help bail me out. Do you hear?”
