Chapter 37

The next day, Charles came out of the interrogation room at the police station. He was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.

“What’s going on with Josic? Charles got into the car and rubbed his temples.

His assistant hurriedly handed him a coffee and replied in a low voice, “Ms. Josie Yates went to the hospital yesterday and gave the police her statement. She said it was just a misunderstanding.”

Otherwise, Charles wouldn’t have been released so soon.

Charles was a little irritated. Tm asking about her health!”

His assistant trembled with fear and quickly answered, “She was discharged this morning. We checked Ms. Josie Yates‘ medical records and confirmed that she experienced shock and emotional loss caused by an anxiety disorder. But… she seemed to have done a lumbar puncture at Hofcaster Hospital last month.”

“Lumbar puncture?” A hint of worry flashed in Charles‘ eyes. He ordered, “Find someone we know in the hospital and get to the bottom of this”

As soon as the phone was in Charles‘ hand, Ashley called

“Mr. Larson, there seems to be a hiccup in the plan we came up with.” Ashley was clearly blaming Charles for messing up things up. She asked, “Didn’t you say Josie would agree to marry you this time?”

“Are you lecturing me?” Charles began to feel annoyed.

Of course, Ashley couldn’t afford to offend Charles. “You Inisunderstand me, Mr. Larson. You are the one who wants to ceoperate with me, so I’m worrying on your behalf

“I will deal with this matter. If you want to become Mrs. Gibson, you’d better focus on Henry. I will deal with Josie. Charles was warning Ashley to mind her own business

“Well then, I wish you good luck.

Ashley was brooding in her apartment.

She was slapped by Josie for no reason and yelled at by Henry, so Ashley was in a bad mood.

She chucked her phone aside in frustration, cursing Charles for being useless.

She thought he was capable enough to ruin Josie’s reputation, but he landed himself at the police station. Fortunately, he didn’t drag her down.

“Ashley, take the ice pack and apply it. Don’t forget that you will be appearing on the show tomorrow.” Thomas handed the ice pack to Ashley and sighed when he saw her angry expression. He asked, “Did he seek you out again?”

Ashley took the ice pack. When Thomas mentioned his name, fear flickered in her eyes. “No. If he still dares to pester me, I will definitely call the police.”

“Don’t worry. He won’t be able to find you. I told you that I would protect you.” Thomas reassured Ashley.

Ashley sneered. “What can you do to protect me?”
