Claire felt a little frustrated.Sometimes, she felt as if she and her mother were people from two different worlds, and she could not find the same communication frequency with her at all.Moreover, she also knew that her mother was a very decisive person, and once she had already decided on a certain plan, it was impossible for anyone to change her mind. So, Claire did not say anything else and simply reminded her, “Then you must tell me before the plane takes off after you get on the plane so I can rest assured.”Elaine smiled and said, “Okay, I’ve got it. You don’t have to worry about it. Tell my dear son-in-law to drive safely. I’ll hang up now.”After saying that, Elaine hung up the video call directly. After hanging up the video call, Elaine went to check the post that she had just uploaded on WhatsApp, which then made her angry again. It was just like the last time when she had been on a private jet and no one had liked her post at all.Elaine could not help but curs
“Lexus LM300?” Hannah asked in confusion, “What is the LM300?”Elaine blurted out, “It’s the Lexus MPV! You should know that it’s the most expensive MPV in the world! The domestic price of that MPV is more than three million dollars!”Hannah was dumbfounded. “More than three million dollars just to buy an MPV?! If this money was used to buy the Chevrolet Miniev, it could form a line that is longer than a coal train. Isn’t it a little problematic to spend so much money to buy that car?”“What do you know?” Elaine curled her lips and said contemptuously, “You think like a typical poor man. You cannot figure out why the rich would spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a private jet, so you certainly would not be able to understand why they would spend more than three million dollars to buy an MPV. The world of the rich is not about the best, but it’s about the most expensive!”After pausing for a moment, Elaine then said again, “Besides, what does an MPV that is three million d
She looked at the police officer with a surprised expression and asked, “Yes, that’s me. What’s wrong?”The police officer continued to ask, “Let me check your personal information with you. You are Elaine Parker from Aurous Hill, Oskia. You’re taking the Cathay Pacific flight CX845 from New York to Hong Kong this time, right?”“That’s right...” Elaine was even more puzzled and asked in disbelief, “Is there any problem with my flight?” The female police officer said coldly, “There is no problem with your flight, but there is a problem with your suitcase! Please come with us to assist us with the investigation.”Elaine hurriedly said, “What could possibly be wrong with my suitcase? Aside from some personal clothing and some local products from New York, I didn’t put anything else like lithium batteries in it...”The female police officer snorted coldly, “There is no need for any unnecessary sophistry. There are other passengers here, so please take the initiative to come with me s
The Caucasian police officer could not understand the Oskian dialect, but he could still understand the English that was mixed in Elaine’s words.He did not expect Elaine to actually say that she was his mother, and he immediately became furious. He then deliberately increased the strength in his knees and pressed down even harder on Elaine.Elaine only felt a sharp pain in her body, and she could hardly breathe because of the pressure. After that, she heard a click, and she instantly felt a sharper pain. The police officer had broken her rib!At this moment, Elaine broke out in cold sweat from the pain as she cried and shouted, “My rib is broken! My rib is broken! Help! I’m dying from the pain...”Having said that, she looked at the female police officer and blurted out, “Hurry up and stop him! Otherwise, he will crush me to death! Is this how you treat first-class passengers?!”The female police officer said coldly, “This is the first time I’ve met a drug dealer like you. Do you
Elaine hurriedly said, “I did not even ask for a single penny! I was just helping a friend out...”Elaine actually felt very guilty when she said this.This was because she knew very well in her heart that the reason why she had agreed to help Clarissa with the suitcase was simply because Clarissa had said that she would give her a Lexus LM300 and would also take her around Hong Kong for a few days. However, Elaine felt that all these things were simply verbal promises. After all, she had not received a penny from the woman, so the police couldn't possibly find any evidence.The female police officer then glanced at Elaine with a slightly compassionate look. After that, she then took Elaine to their police station which was next to the airport terminal together with her colleagues.Elaine cried and wailed all the way because of her broken rib as she hoped to be able to receive treatment first, but the female police officer said, “It’s just a broken rib, so there’s no need for you
When the female police officer saw that Elaine wanted to contact her family, she nodded. “Okay, you have the right to contact your family and have your family arrange a criminal lawyer for you.”After that, she took out Elaine’s cell phone, handed it to Elaine, and said, “Remember, you can only call your family or your lawyer. If you call your accomplice to inform them about this matter, it will only make you guiltier!”Elaine cried and said, “Don’t you understand what I just said?! I already told you that I was wronged and I’m being set up by others. Where am I going to find any accomplices?!”The female police officer said indifferently, “It’s not up to you nor is it up to me to have the final say on whether you were wronged or not, or whether you were being set up or not. When the trial begins, everything will be subjected to the judge’s verdict.”Elaine glanced at the female police officer angrily and then immediately picked up her cell phone and called Claire. When Claire an
Charlie spoke up and said, “Mom, you don’t need to worry, and you don’t have to be afraid. We will certainly be able to successfully resolve this matter. It might be a little troublesome, but you will have to suffer a little grievance during this period of time.”Elaine cried and asked, “You have to save me, my dear son-in-law! I’m so scared! If this matter does not go well, I’ll be imprisoned for life... I’m someone who has been in a detention center before, and it’s too scary there...”Charlie said seriously, “Don’t worry, Mom. I promise that you will not be sentenced to life imprisonment. This matter will be resolved before Claire graduates, and you will definitely be able to return to Oskia with us then.”Elaine hurriedly asked, “My dear son-in-law, do you mean what you’ve just said? It’s just over half a month before Claire graduates and you return to Oskia...”Charlie hummed and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely keep my word!”When Elaine heard Charlie’s firm and determi
For Charlie, it was not difficult to solve this matter, but it was by no means easy for him to resolve this matter satisfactorily. The crime that Elaine was now suspected of was a felony among felonies in any country or region in this world.Moreover, because the amount of contraband that she was carrying was so large, this was a death sentence in many countries. If he could catch all the people behind this crime, Elaine could then be truly and legitimately cleared of all suspicion. Otherwise, he could only use special means to get her out of prison.But in that case, Elaine would have an international criminal record, and that would be a real problem in the future. In order to deal with a gang of criminals who specialized in harming their compatriots, some extraordinary means would have to be used. If Claire were to follow Charlie, his hands would not only be tied, but he would also have to devote extra energy to take care of her and protect her. So, for Charlie, the best so
