Chapter 18

The police officer warned Dale's wife to watch her words.

Willow wasn't the type to tolerate such insults and slander. In fact, she wouldn't rest until she resolved the matter.

"Not only do I have physical evidence, but I have a witness too." Willow glared at Dale's wife with resolute eyes. She then said to the police, "Please wait for a moment. I'll call forward my witness to prove that Dale White harassed me." The police officer nodded, and allowed Willow to leave the vicinity.

She wanted to find Tyson, who had seen how Dale pestered her yesterday. He had intervened and protected her from his continued harassment.

Willow felt that he was a man of justice, so she decided to pick him as her witness.

The weather today was gloomy. The clouds were so dark, it looked like it was going to rain any minute. It couldn't have been a more accurate representation of Willow's mood right now.

Edith soon returned to her office. She was about to call the person in charge of the janitorial department to have Willow fired from her job.

Before she could do that, she received a call from the receptionist, who explained that Jasper's relatives had come to visit him.

A puzzled look flashed across her face. "Mr. Hughes's relatives?"

"Yeah, four cute children," replied the receptionist.

Unsure of the situation, she told the receptionist to hold on while she called Jasper to confirm if he was expecting these kids.

At that moment, the receptionist told her, "They went into the elevator. Now they're heading up to the top floor."

At first, the receptionist stopped them from going into the elevator. One of the children was an adorable little boy named Julian. He started sobbing like a lost child who had been separated from his parents.

He explained to the receptionist softly, "Our parents have left us. Mr. Hughes is our uncle, and we want him to help us find our daddy and mommy. Please let us see our uncle, ma'am."

The receptionist's heart melted at the sight of the sobbing boy. What's more, the other children bore some resemblance with Jasper. And so, there wasn't any reason for her to doubt the truth in the boy's explanation. After letting them through, she called the company secretary to inform her they had gone in.
