Chapter 1492

Right after that, Phoebe’s terrified scream echoed from the front door to the bedside table.

“Yes! It’s him! Please, officers, look closely. Isn’t he the fugitive you’re looking for?”

“My grandfather’s house has been vacant for a long time. He must have used it as a hideout!”

“You’re talking nonsense…”

Azriel turned around, just about to say something to Phoebe, who was standing by the bedside table. But before he could even open his mouth, she stuffed something into it. She then darted aside like a frightened rabbit, her hands fluttering nervously. “Officers, I hope you investigate thoroughly and rid our society of this menace…”

Azriel didn’t even have the chance to refute before he was hauled off to the police station. He was locked up without even uttering a word. Shortly after, he was taken to an interrogation room.

Finally, after the police had run out of patience, they agreed to let him call his lawyer.

Since Azriel had just returned to the country and his ID wasn’t local, it took until nightfall to complete all the verification procedures.

During this time, he had his assistant look into Phoebe’s background. True to her being a professor’s granddaughter, she had spent most of her time studying.

Graduated from university and was now studying for her postgraduate degree. But how could a postgraduate student be so naive? Accusing him of being a fugitive?

He was taken to the police station on his second day back in the country and in such an embarrassing manner.

Dragged to the station in his pajamas, surely no one else had ever experienced such a thing. He had never been so humiliated in his life. What a good daughter of the Alonso family…

Azriel changed into the clothes his assistant had brought, and as he left the station, he saw a woman standing at the entrance.
