Zachary arrived at the police station ahead of everyone. Winona had only mentioned Yvette was taken away by the police on an assault charge. Zachary was frustrated and concerned, wondering what Yvette had done this time to end up in the police station.

Does Yvette even care about her reputation? Which prestigious family would want a daughter-in-law who’s been to the police station?’ cursed Zachary internally, feeling an oncoming headache. Plus, is it a big issue? Did the police investigate properly before arresting Yvette? Don’t they know Yvette is my daughter? Does my prestige mean nothing to the police?’ he continued fuming inwardly.

When Zachary arrived at the police station wanting to bail out Yvette, the police refused his request.

Lucas quietly bribed a young officer, who disclosed that Yvette had gotten on the wrong side of Daniel. She’d apparently caused Ethan so much distress he was hospitalized until now.

Upon hearing that, Zachary was upset, but he couldn’t stand by and watch Yvette get convicted, so he started figuring out how to get her released. If worse comes to worst, I can ask Yvette to apologize to Ethan later. There’s no way Daniel wouldn’t at least give me some respect after getting an apology, he thought resignedly.

Just then, Lachlan, who had been questioning Yvette, stepped out for a smoke. The young officer immediately approached Lachlan and whispered to him, after which Lachlan glanced at Zachary doubtfully before walking over toward Zachary “Who are you?” asked Lachlan

Zachary, still being too proud, stayed quiet, allowing Lucas to take over the conversation. “Hello, sir. Yvette is the Chambers family’s eldest daughter. Could you tell us how we can arrange for her bail? We will fully cooperate with any follow-up,” stated Lucas.

Lachlan carefully observed the stoic-looking Zachary, recognizing him as one of the four prominent families’ head, the Chambers family’s head. He was shocked to know Yvette was the Chambers family’s eldest daughter.

‘But her surname is Zeller, while Zachary’s is Chambers! How could they be a family? However, Zachary has personally come down to the station, so it couldn’t possibly be a lie!’ thought Lachlan, feeling slightly nervous dealing with someone important like Zachary “Mr. Zachary Chambers, I’m surprised to see you here. As a low-ranked officer, I can’t decide on this. Maybe you could call the chief, Jonathan Quigley, yourself…” he said

Right then, a furious voice cut through the police station lobby. Bail? Yvette hurt Ethan, yet you still want to talk about bail? Daniel had rushed in and coincidentally caught Zachary discussing bailing Yvette out.
