Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 734

Chapter 734

William was detained at the police station for three whole days. No one inquired about him or paid him a visit, leaving him alone in the police station.

He shouted to everyone passing by that he was innocent, hoping to get some information from them, but everyone who passed by was aloof and said nothing to him.

Gradually, William became downhearted. It appeared to him that the Gardners were fully aware that he was the one who caused Ella's death. Otherwise, they would not have had enough evidence to keep him in custody for so long.

Queenie and Lydia were busy trying to get William out too. Though William's life was unimportant to them, Queenie was still Mrs. Gardner. If William's crime was proven, she would undoubtedly be expelled from the Gardner household.

Every time she thought about it, she felt panicked. Thus, she was doing everything she could to find all of her contacts who could help her.

However, she could not get any substantial assistance. Everyone thought her previous wedding was a joke, and with no explanation provided by the Gardners, everyone assumed she had been chased out of the Gardner Family, and thus no one wanted to meddle in her affairs.

She then sought out her 'good friends,' who had frequently asked for benefits from her in the past, hoping that they could assist her in settling the matter with the cops.

However, those who had previously sweet-talked her avoided her as quickly as they could after learning about William's situation.

"Stop pulling our legs, Miss Anderson. We are just ordinary people. How would we have the ability to get your father out? You're looking for the wrong person."

"That's right. My family is doing business; they are not politicians. I can't help no matter how much I want to."

They provided all sorts of excuses to avoid helping Queenie.

Queenie's face turned red with rage when she heard all of their excuses. They all claimed to be her friends when they needed her help in the past, but now that she was the one in trouble, they all refused to help and even avoided her as if she were a plague.

She had finally seen through their sham pretenses.

Seeing that none of them were willing to help, Queenie bluntly exposed the excuses of one of them.

"Your uncle, if I recall correctly, works for the police. How could you now say that you've no way to help me?"

The lady who was exposed by Queenie immediately had an awful expression. Everyone in Lumore knew that Queenie was now just a joke. They had all tried to lick her boots in the past because of her connection with the Gardner Corporation, but now, everyone who was smart enough could see that the Gardner Corporation had completely abandoned Queenie. Hence, there was no longer any need for them to please Queenie.
