Chapter 518 Reported for Tax Evasion

“I’m not upset or anything, I just feel that something’s off.”

Callum pulled Elspeth into his arms comfortingly. “I know that Old Mr. Wilstone is not the only one behind this; there’s someone else. I know exactly what Jethro is up to.”

“That’s true.”

“So, you don’t have to worry. If he still has any ill intentions toward you, I will never let him off the hook.”

His words had a hint of jealousy in them, and he sounded a little childish, even.

Elspeth helped him to smooth out his jacket, then pinched his nose. “Don’t worry, I know all that.”

The two were about to go out when a group of people barged in all of a sudden.

The ones in the lead were a group of police, followed by staff who were curious about what was going on.

“Mr. Winthrop, someone reported you for tax evasion and running illegal businesses. Please come with us.”

One of the police showed their credentials. Now, the couple had to change their plans from going out for a meal to going to the police station.

Before leaving, Elspeth could clearly see a gleeful face in the crowd behind them.

Jethro.

Elspeth quietly committed that smile to memory.

Once at the police station, Callum was brought inside for interrogation.

She sat in the lounge outside, awaiting the results.

The policeman looked at Callum’s face and said seriously, “Mr. Winthrop, is it true that you have committed tax evasion in the past 6 months?”

“Don’t you arrest people based on evidence?” Callum looked at the policeman calmly. There was no anger from Callum, but he was intimidating nevertheless.
