Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 535 A Present And Beautiful Misunderstanding

Someone unrelated…

Briefly stunned, the chief lowered his gaze and gave his nose an awkward scratch. “No. I have been fully focused on this terrible attack on you and haven’t met any outsiders.”

Seeing through the chief’s expression, Gwendolyn and Cedrick exchanged glances.

“Fine. In that case, I have no further questions.”

Upon gaining Gwendolyn’s acceptance, the chief breathed a soft sigh of relief in front of the blackboard. He then used a tissue to wipe off the sweat that had broken out across his forehead out of anxiety.

While escorting Gwendolyn and Cedrick out of the police station, Neal asked, “The criminal who struck Ms. Harris behind the head is being punished. Do both of you want to see him?”

Gwendolyn shook her head in response. “Forget it. Just get the police to continue his severe punishment, Mr. Gray, Mr. Jenson and I have spent too much time in Astoria. It’s been a long time since we have seen the children, so we feel like going home.”

“All right then.” Neal gave her an understanding nod before turning toward Cedrick. “In that case, Mr. Jenson, do you want to bring the criminal back to Chanaea for questioning?”

Cedrick helped Gwendolyn walk with his arm wrapped around her waist. “Since Gwenny has asked you to punish him heavily, so be it. He is, after all, an Astorian citizen and not the mastermind. Going through the extradition process for just a henchman is too troublesome and entirely unnecessary.”

Neal nodded in agreement.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Jenson. Even though the lorry driver is now an Astorian citizen, I’ll make sure he gets the best medical care. Once he recovers, he will definitely be dealt with severely.”

However, Cedrick retorted in a nonchalant tone, “He’s nothing but a scapegoat planted at the very last minute.”

The words stunned Neal slightly. As the crown prince of Astoria, Cedrick’s insinuation wasn’t lost upon. him. Nonetheless, all he responded with was a wry smile.

Just as they left the police station and were about to enter the armored car to return to the hotel, Cedrick turned around and said, “Neal, your police chief isn’t on your side. You had better be careful as someone like this might impede your ascension to the throne.”

The moment he finished, Cedrick help Gwendolyn into the car before joining her inside.

After the door slammed shut, the pale-looking Neal was left standing in the dust.

As he watched the armored car gradually disappear, Neal discreetly gave the deputy police chief a call.

“Find out who your boss has met with recently, and be discreet about it.”

On the way back to the hotel, Cedrick and Gwendolyn didn’t say a word due to the presence of the Astorian police.

It wasn’t until the door to the presidential suite was closed behind him that Cedrick remarked, “From the police chief’s reaction, it’s clear that the person he met must be someone important. I’m guessing it was
