Chapter 145 The Three of Them Gather Together
When Victoria saw Logan, she cried emotionally and shouted desperately, "Logan, help me! Help me quickly! Adeline the malicious woman called the police to arrest me."
Upon hearing this, Logan lost his head and left his luggage at the entrance. He strode into the living room and looked at Adeline reproachfully. "What's going on?"
Adeline's heart sank with a dull pain.
She didn't feel the delightful surprise of meeting him again but undisguised disappointment. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
When Logan saw that Adeline didn't answer, he looked anxiously at the cop and asked, "Officer, is there any misunderstanding here? This is my girlfriend, and that is my mother. It should be an internal conflict within the family."
The cop said in a businesslike manner, "This is no longer an internal family conflict. It is a crime. We will look into the case and see if there is a misunderstanding. We won't let go of any bad guy or put any good guy in the wrong. However, the current evidence is complete and indicates that Ms. Riley intentionally made a false charge against Ms. Burton, so the higher authorities issued a warrant for her arrest. This is the warrant."
As he spoke, the cop showed Logan the warrant.
Logan carefully looked at the warrant and found that it was authentic. His lips turned pale, and he staggered back a few steps.
The cop glanced at Logan and said, "Excuse me. Please stay out of the way."
Logan panicked and held the cop's hand. "Officer, can we reconcile in private?"
The cop looked at Adeline and said, "Ms. Burton, would you like a reconciliation?"
"No." Adeline insisted.
Victoria had never been handcuffed since childhood, and now she felt embarrassed and resentful.
Hearing that Adeline didn't agree to reconcile, Victoria stamped her feet in anger.
"Logan, look. This is the good wife you chose. She wants me to die. We're family. Why did she have to call the police instead of settling it in private? Now do you see her true colors? Don't marry such a malicious woman."
Adeline couldn't help giving a mocking smile when she thought of the conditions she had offered to Victoria.
How could this kind of person confess her crimes to her son?
Victoria might not repent until she died!
When Logan learned that Adeline refused to reconcile, he got anxious and rushed up with red eyes, hissing, "Adeline, I order you to reconcile immediately."
"Why? Why do you order me to do that?" Adeline's eyes were filled with deep disappointment with Logan.
"I'm sorry, but the arrest warrant has been issued, so we have to take Ms. Riley away. As for your internal affairs, you can communicate with each other."
As he spoke, the cop turned to take Victoria away.
Jodie got impatient after waiting outside for a long time and ran inside. When she saw the cop taking away Victoria, she was startled. "Logan, what's going on?"
When Logan saw Jodie, he remembered why he came back to Prodiff this time.
He went up to Victoria awkwardly and asked in a low voice, "Mom, where's my bonus card?"
Victoria immediately became vigilant and said, "Why do you ask?"
Logan got embarrassed and whispered, "Something happened to Jodie's family, and I promised to lend her money. Mom, just tell me where the card is."
Upon hearing this, Victoria burst into laughter and looked at Adeline, intentionally saying loudly.
"So you came back for Jodie. That's fine. Your bonus card is in the second drawer of the bedside table in my room. I told you the password before."
Logan instantly lowered his head, not daring to look at Adeline.
At this moment, Curtis was wheeled in by Steffen and asked with a soft chuckle, "What is going on?"
