Donald hung up and inquired about the matter immediately. He then learned that the other party had offended Frankie, the deputy mayor. He called Frankie immediately.When Frankie heard Donald on the phone, he was extremely respectful. Donald had served as secretary for quite some time, even though he was about to retire.As a result, Frankie agreed to let the Miller Group go.As for Henry, nothing was mentioned. Hence, Frankie would not let him go so easily. He even wanted him dead.That was the only way to dismiss the hatred in his daughter's heart. Since he could not take action against the Miller Group, he decided to punish Henry severely.Eric hung up the phone and then returned to sit down. He said, "Don't worry, Lydia. I've already spoken with Mr. Chapman, the top leader in your city. He'll take care of it. It's perfectly fine.""That's fantastic. You must have many connections, Mr. Levy. With just one phone call, you can reach the most powerful person in the city," John s
Jess kept calm and avoided getting angry. After some simple questions, she said, "Henry, you should take the initiative and explain everything immediately."Otherwise, if I discover the truth through other means, you'll lose your only opportunity to reduce your sentence."Henry appeared frustrated. He shook his head and asked, "What's there to explain? I didn't do anything illegal.""Are you sure? This is your only chance. No matter who begs for your mercy this time, I won't let you go.""There's nothing to explain.""Well, you asked for it."Jess became angry and said, "Bring them in."When the others heard her order, they immediately brought in Neil and Edward. As soon as they entered, they noticed Henry sitting there.Despite having his hands cuffed, Henry remained calm. However, his facial expression shifted slightly.Henry also glanced at them. He had a cold, sharp look in his eyes.Both men's hearts trembled slightly, and they could not help but break out in cold sweat.
"May I be struck by the thunder if I had lied to you."Neil was dumbfounded. Edward had lied, but he dared to swear on his life. Was he not afraid of the swear coming true? However, Edward's fear of facing Henry was apparent.Jess was infuriated. Fortunately, they had another eyewitness. She turned around and said, "Neil, didn't you say earlier that Henry used his skills to act recklessly and harm people as he wished?"Neil immediately denied it, saying, "No, Mr. Truman is a very nice person. We were cruel to him, but he refused to harm us. How could he harm others as he wanted?"When Jess heard that, she became enraged. "Neil, you think you can undo everything you've said by changing your story now? We have surveillance videos."Neil's facial expression changed several times after learning about the surveillance videos. What should he do? He had no choice but to confess truthfully out of desperation. He replied, "Yes, I said that before, but someone asked me to say that intention
"Why? Do you feel wronged?Despite Jess's pitiful expression, Sergeant James continued commenting about her. He grumbled, "If you can't stand me or still want to act the way you want, please ask to be transferred."Our station can't accommodate someone with a huge ego like you."His words were very hurtful. Jess's tears of grief streamed down her cheeks directly. She could not help but say, "There's clearly something wrong with Henry. What is it about his identity that compels you to defend him like this?""There's something wrong with him?"Where is the evidence, then? How can you claim that he has a problem if there's no evidence?"Can I arrest you for interrogation simply because I have a passing suspicion that something is wrong with you?" Sergeant James asked when he saw that she had not repented."I—"Jess wanted to say something but was unable to refute it."You have nothing to say now?""If you still want to work at the police station, apologize to Mr. Truman immediat
"That's better. You should have behaved like this long ago." Henry smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I am a forgiving person. Since you're so sincere, I'll forgive you.""Thank you, I'll see you out."That was Sergeant James's request. Jess stepped forward, unlocked Henry's handcuffs, and then led him out.Sergeant James was waiting outside. He stepped forward and said, "Mr. Truman, I'm really sorry. My subordinates are ignorant and have offended you. I'm here to apologize to you.""It's fine. It's the past now," Henry said."Thank you. Jess, did you see what a generous person Mr. Truman is? You must not make such a mistake again," Sergeant James said."Yes, I'll remember that.""Remember it deeply. See Mr. Truman home personally.""This—"Jess wanted to reject, but when she looked into Sergeant James's eyes, she nodded and said, "Sure."Someone had offered him a ride, so Henry did not refuse. He got in her car and asked her to drive him back to the office. After all, he
"I'm very sure," Jess said coldly and firmly.Henry shook his head. There must be something fishy about her sudden change of mind. However, how would she be able to outwit him?They arrived at the office lobby after a while."Here we are. Baby Jess, would you like to come and sit in my office for a while?" Henry said with a smile.Jess almost vomited when he called her that. She glared at Henry fiercely, then got out of the car and stepped forward to hug him.Henry was confused. 'What's going on? Is this girl in heat or something?'However, Jess quickly let go of her hand and said proudly, "Alright, I've just become your woman. However, I now find you ugly and have a bad character, so I am breaking up with you.""Break up?" Henry finally understood what she was up to.Jess looked at Henry, feeling stunned and proud.'I finally tricked this bastard for once.' However, she realized he was not annoyed when she hugged him.Henry smiled and said, "Sure, let's break up. So, you're
"Well, it's just a small problem. Of course, I'm fine," Henry said."That's great, Henry. After you left, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and the Tax Bureau arrived..." Herman explained what had happened.Henry frowned as he listened to Herman. His face turned cold. He did not expect so many things to happen in such a short period. He immediately asked, "How was the matter settled later? Where's Lydia?""Lydia?"Herman was slightly startled. Was that not Ms. Miller's name?As expected, Henry did have a close relationship with Ms. Miller. He replied quickly, "Ms. Miller received the news, too. However, she didn't return to the office. It seemed that Ms. Miller found someone to help solve the problem.""Alright, I understand now."Henry called Lydia immediately.Lydia had just left Eric. After all, Eric had greatly assisted her family; she could not ignore him.Furthermore, John had asked her to go for a walk with Eric.Lydia even took the opportunity to mention to Eric th
After hearing Henry's affirmative words, Lydia could not help but smile and say, "Yes, you're such bad luck. Whoever you say will be in trouble will undoubtedly be in trouble.""How can I have bad luck? I'm a magical fortune teller.""Yes, I'm wrong about you. You're a magical fortune teller," Lydia said with a smile. She felt much better after Henry said that.Although she did not believe something would happen to Eric, she could not help but believe in Henry for unknown reasons.Henry hung up the call, a cold look flashing in his eyes. 'Eric, Eric… The York family is already a hassle. You still insist on sticking your nose around. You're really asking for death.'However, the top priority for the moment was to deal with one person first. Henry called Richard."Mr. Truman.""Tell me, what happened to the Miller Group today?" Henry asked in an unpleasant yet questioning tone.Ordinary people would not have dared to do that to Richard; they would have been destroyed long ago.H
