Chapter 21: How Dare They Bully My Fiancée

Andrew had no time to react when the call from the other side abruptly ended. He furrowed his brows, and before he could ponder further, the phone rang again.

"Captain Heisler, you've really stirred up trouble this time. The girl we apprehended today-she's got backing! The higher-ups are alerted, and they've issued a strict order. If we don't release her, we're in deep trouble. You'd better come here quickly!"

Andrew was stunned.

The higher-ups were alerted?

What was going on?

Wasn't it just a theft case?

After a moment of contemplation, Andrew responded with a cold face, "So what if she has connections? We conduct our affairs justly and have not wronged anyone. It is her duty to cooperate with the investigation as a suspect." "She's not a suspect! We've already called your mother, and she confirmed that her bracelet wasn't stolen," the person on the phone said, "Furthermore, that Miss Reed isn't a tenant at Pinkwater Alley; she's the owner. She bought the place recently for three times the market price."

"What?" Andrew was startled. "Not stolen?"

Suddenly, something clicked, and his expression darkened.

"Chief Kampwerth is furious. I'm calling you on the sly. Hurry up and get here."

After hanging up, Andrew, filled with anger, flung open the door and strode over to where Elena was.

"Slap!"

Elena, who was speaking to Amber, was abruptly slapped across the face. Clutching her cheek, she looked at Andrew in disbelief, "Andrew, what are you doing?"

Andrew's face was ashen as he demanded, "Tell me the truth, did mom really lose her bracelet?"

He had always trusted his sensible and well-behaved sister, so when she said someone had stolen their mother's bracelet, he hadn't doubted her. Moreover, since their mother wasn't home after he returned, he hadn't inquired further. But now, it seemed the little girl had dared to deceive him.

A glint flashed in Elena's eyes, "It really was lost."

"Slap!"

Another slap from Andrew, "You're still lying to me! Elena, is this how I taught you? To falsely accuse others of such serious matters? Do you think my life is too long, and that the Heisler family is too comfortable?"
