Chapter 68
Lambert was used to his harsh words and was busy saving Jessica. He didn't want to talk to Oliver anymore and continued to talk to the lawyer.
Oliver was dressed in an iron-gray suit, in which he looked tall and strong. He ignored the people around him and walked in.
Warren had been staying at the police station. Lambert didn't leave, so he dared not to get off work.
He had been observing outside and saw another man from the surveillance of the office. Warren didn't know the man, but he could tell the man was not an ordinary person at first sight. In addition, Warren saw the manner of the man when he talked to Lambert. Their figures were about the same, so Warren understood that this man was also someone he couldn't afford to offend.
He immediately called Tom again. "Sir, another man comes here. What do you think we should do?"
An impatient voice came from the phone, "No matter who comes, do as I said before. She is only an ordinary woman. Don't make a fuss about nothing." After that, Tom hung up the phone.
After a while, a clerk knocked on the door. "Sir, someone is here for Chief."
Warren was anxious. It was a coincidence that Tom was not around today. He was left with all the thankless things. He felt exhausted just dealing with the first two people. Now it came another one. It seemed that they didn't want him to get off work.
Warren went to the reception room and saw the man sitting on the sofa. The man was expressionless, and his eyes were cold.
Warren smiled stiffly, "Sir, what's your name? May I help you?"
Warren did not know Oliver. As the president of Williams Group, Oliver barely appeared in the TV news or newspapers but many people knew his reputation.
Oliver said stonily, "Ask Tom to see me."
The person who could call the police chief by his name was Oliver, the second young master of the Williams Family. Warren could tell from Tom's words that he was afraid of Oliver.
"You must be Mr. Williams. Our Chief is not here. Give me a second. I'll tell him that you're here.”
Warren called Tom again, and Tom cursed on the other end, "What the hell..."
He cut in, "Sir, it's Mr. Williams, Oliver Williams."
Warren could feel Tom calm down quickly. "Why did he come to the police station? Usually, his assistant calls me directly if he needs me.” "He's here to see you."
Tom didn't understand why Oliver came to the police station and asked to see him. "Okay, I'll be right there.”
After Warren finished the call, he said to Oliver, "Mr. Williams, he will be back soon. I'll make you a cup of coffee. Please, have a seat.”
Simon stopped him. "No need for that. You can take us to see Miss White now."
Warren replied, "Okay, follow me."
Jessica was sitting in the interrogation room and hugging her knees. She stared blankly at the wall. She never thought that she would come to the police station one day. She had suffered a lot.
She didn't know what time it was. The police had taken her phone and bag. She was asked a lot of questions, and she was exhausted. She closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, but the sound of the door handle woke her.
Only when she saw Warren in the police uniform did she realize that this was the police station. Then she saw Oliver's stern look.
Jessica almost slid down from her chair and stood up abruptly. "Why are you here?"
Oliver sneered. "Is that all you got? Don't you have enough work to do at the company?"
Jessica ignored Oliver's ridicule and retorted, "Someone wants to get me here. What can I do? I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't push anyone at all. I didn't need you, Mr. Williams, to come here and save me. I should be released tomorrow."
When they took Jessica to the police station, Warren checked her files in private. There was nothing great about her. The White was not a big family in Birmingham, and she was just a college student who had just graduated. Nothing was surprising, and he didn't find out where she worked. Hearing Oliver's words, Warren realized that Jessica should be an employee of the Williams Group. Warren didn't expect Oliver would come to the police station for an employee.
Oliver looked at Jessica, who was pale and didn't look good. He felt really bad because this woman never wanted to ask him for help. Anyhow, he was her husband.
"Are you sure that they will release you so easily?"
"No matter how capable Alice is, she should have evidence. The surveillance and the witnesses can prove my innocence.”
"You are so naive."
Jessica deeply believed that this man was here for punishing her.
The two of them just stood there, looking at each other.
"Mr. Williams." Suddenly, someone broke the silence.
It was Tom who came in.
Tom reprimanded Warren. "How dare you arrest the woman working for Mr.Wiliams?"
Warren smiled awkwardly. "Miss White, I'm really sorry. I made a mistake. I'll arrange a car to send you back.”
Simon said to Warren, "There's no need for that. I'll drive Miss White back."
Tom smiled at Oliver, "It's all my fault. And my men didn't know about Miss White. This will never happen again. Mr. Williams, let me treat you to dinner as an apology.”
Oliver said indifferently, "No, I'm busy."
Tom didn’t dare to say anything more and see Oliver and the others out.
Jessica walked to the door and saw Lambert and the lawyer were still there, so she walked over and said, "Lambert, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Lambert glanced at Oliver. "It's okay. I'm glad that you are all right." Oliver took a glance at her. Then he went straight ahead to the Bentley at the door.
Simon was waiting outside the car when he heard Oliver in the back seat say coldly, "Drive."
