Chapter 69
Chapter 69
The words startled the deputy sheriff.
Liam was indeed nobody to Wolf Group.
The last deputy sheriff ended up in prison for getting in the way of some big shot in Wolf Group, he knew it well.
"God, I don't really have a clear conscience, what if they aren't leaving me alone? I'm likely to get dismissed in those things then?!"
Thinking of this, the deputy sheriff was sweating profusely and said, "I'II do it right away. But could you please tell me what kind of trouble I'm in? A big one or small one?"
"You tell me what it is if James Field called you personally. Thank God, you only caused some trouble to his driver. If it was someone more important, you wouldn't be there!"
After all, the deputy sheriff had worked here for many years, so the top leader added, "Do it right now. James said that your man's call scared Miss Anderson. Just handle this right now!"
After hanging up the phone, the sheriff immediately order everyone to break off all ongoing actions and made someone to apologize to Paige.
Liam called Paige when she was on the way away from Wolf Group. She, however, ignored him.
But Liam kept calling at her. She had no choice but to park the car and answer Liam's phone.
The phone was through and it came Liam's angry voice, "You are becoming more adventurous, aren't you? Why don't you answer my call? Just be responsible for what you've done, okay? What do you mean by not answering the call?"
"What are you talking about? I didn't do anything! What happened to Sophia is nothing to do with me!" Paige suppressed her anger and denied.
"It won't help to deny it. I know this must be a trap of you and your man. You spiteful b*tch. Sophia is your sister and she is even pregnant. How could you do such a heartless thing to her?" Criticized and insulted, Paige's face darkened as she became disillusioned with what she called her father.
Remembering that she almost lost her life because of the kidnapping by Sophia and her mother and back then Liam just didn't believe her at all and did nothing to Sophia and her mother. But now when it came to her, Liam was like someone else.
He didn't allow her to explain it before making her conviction. If it weren't for James, Bob would have already been captured.
How would she get raised up by such a cold-blooded man?
Distracted, Paige sneered, "Whatever. I got to go!"
"I haven't finished yet. I am telling you seriously. I won't forget about Sophia's suffering. I will have that d*mn b*stard pay for it!"
"What do you want?" Paige was with a indifferent face instead of being afraid and nervous because
she had James's promise.
Liam was angrier at her indifferent voice, and continued to threaten her wickedly.
"I can tell you that I've already got someone to help. What awaits for that f*cking b*stard is years in prison! As for you, you'd better be honest and confess to me, and apologize to Sophia, and I won't do anything to you for the family's sake! Otherwise, I can make you end up in prison, too! Then you dare not disobey."
A father wanted his daughter end up in a jail. What kind of hatred was in it?
Paige hung up the phone without a word.
After resting her head on the steering wheel for a long time, she started the car again and went home.
That made her somehow worried again. Taken what Liam had said, it would not end up too easy.
Was James lying to her? Bad if James renege on his promises.
She sat on the sofa, woolgathering. The doorbell rang.
The man in uniform got her startled at her first glance. Paige was scared then the man began to apologize in a friendly manner.
The man was here not for arresting someone, but to apologize. Paige was completely confused.
By the time Joseph ended the meeting, the matter had already been settled.
He sat in his chair and laughed happily as he listened to James's account of what had happened.
The cutie must have been freaked out. He had to make it up to her.
Joseph returned home immediately. Seeing him home, surprised and happy, she flew to Joseph, "Why are you back home? Do you have any idea how worried I was today?"
"Sorry, I was out for some business today. I didn't notice that my phone died. I got back and Mr. Field told me what happened and I rushed back. You must have had quite a fright."
"It's all your fault. I was scared to death today!" Paige felt wronged and swooped herself into Joseph's arms.
"I'm so sorry, babe. It's all my fault! I apologize!" Joseph hugged Paige and gave her a deep kiss. Some time passed before they let go of each other.
Paige had herself held in Joseph's arms gently and sat down on his lap. She looked at Joseph with her watery big eyes and said, "I got something to ask you. Don't lie to me!"
"Okay, go ahead." Joseph put on an innocent look.
"Is Sophia's suffer any business to do with you?"
"You can say that."
"What? It's you?" Paige almost jumped up.
Joseph appeased Paige, patted her on the shoulder, "Calm down. Just hear me out. Well, this is the story, last night I was driving Mr. Field home when I found Sophia was following me. I told Mr. Field and he was very unhappy and decided to deal with her."
Knowing that James was also involved in it made Paige relieved. As long as James was with them, Liam's threat was nothing at all.
After she was reassured, Paige began to be curious about how Sophia was sorted out, "What did you do to her?"
"I led her to the countryside after I found out that she was following me, and had someone pretended to be a ghost to scared her out of her wits. Then her car was smashed, she was knocked out and threw into a grave mound naked. And we poured pig's blood on her."
"Fantastic!" Paige laughed out loud. She had no good thoughts for that b*tch for sure. She was extremely happy to see Sophia get her comeuppance.
With Liam's help, Julie and her daughter thought that they were about to win and only got to wait to blast their ass.
However, there came no news telling Paige and the man getting arrested and the night was off.
Sophia and Julie both realized that might be something wrong.
Julie called Liam and asked about the progress of the matter. Liam was out there in a business dinner. He didn't realized that the police had done nothing until Julie's call
A little angry, he called the deputy sheriff, who began to play dumb.
"Mr. Anderson, it's a civilized community that we live in. You got to have prove to arrest others. As long as you show out the prove that man hurt Miss Martin by violence, I will certainly get him. No proof, no move."
Liam was at a loss by his words, "What's going on ? I thought it was a done deal?"
As a businessmen, Liam was shrewd enough to know something was wrong behind the deputy sheriff's backtracking.
Did the man really have a backer? He gently inquired, "Chief Scott, we've been friends for years, would you please tell me the reason?"
"Mr. Anderson, I know we are old friends, so I won't hide it from you. It's out of my hands. My boss called me and told me that James stepped in." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
The name shocked Liam, "What does it have to do with James?"
"The man is James's driver. James is very protective of his men, so I can't help you with it, unless you have proof."
The phone was then hung up.
Liam's complexion became pale with anger. In the end, who he thought would be a big fish was actually a diver.
It was so shameful that the president of a company couldn't seal the deal with a driver.
But with James's intervention, he couldn't do anything to this man named Bob. After all, he couldn't afford to offend James.
Liam was supercharged with anger, and Julie, hot for paying back for her daughter, happened to call him to ask about the progress.
Then Liam snarled at Julie angrily and Julie was given both barrels before the phone was hung up.
