The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 474

When Benny got the news that Captain Tony had brought his people, Claire, and
everyone else to the Assex residence to arrest Joanne, Emma, and the rest, he rushed
back.
It was fortunate that he wasn’t far from the house when he received the call, or it would
have been too late.
When Joanne saw her eldest son, she looked as if she was witnessing the arrival of her
savior. She started shouting in a hoarse voice, “Ben, hurry, come save me! I can’t be
arrested!”
All the tears from the old lady’s eyes started to flow down.
She was already of such advanced age. If she were to go to jail, it would bring immense
shame to her ancestors. If this were the case, how would they establish a foothold in
California?
Benny, also acquainted with Tony, hurriedly said, “Captain Tony, my mother is already
very old.
How could she have gone around to steal things? All these are thanks to my

brother and my niece. If you want to arrest someone, then arrest them instead and let
my mother go! If anything happens to her, no one will be able to bear the
consequences.”
Tony glanced at Alex.
Though no one else knew Alex’s identity, Tony was well aware of who he was. He

taken, or you’ll be charged as being an accomplice. Understand?”
Joanne was still in a state of shock, and her emotions were everywhere. As long as she
didn’t have to go to jail, she would thank god. Without protest, she nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, yes! I understand. I really didn’t know that it was a stolen item!”
As she spoke, the mocking gazes of the people around her made her feel like she was
sitting on pins and needles.
She had obviously lied, stating that the necklace was a gift from her husband.
Joanne’s face flushed, embarrassed. She had nowhere to put her face now.
“Take them away!”
Tony gave the order to take Emma and Anderson away.
“Mom, Elder Brother! Save us, hurry and save us!”
“Grandma, I don’t want to go to jail! It’ll be over for me if I do! Uncle, help!”
However, Joanne’s legs felt like soft jelly. All the strength she had left her, much less the
courage to speak up. Nobody else knew, but she had, in fact, wet her pants from fright.
Luckily, it was only a little bit, and no one could see it. Benny turned to Claire. “Sister,
