Right then, Ingrid suddenly stood up and said, “How is that not possible? Jared’s girlfriend is the daughter of Horington’s richest man! He’s rich!”
“Richest man in Horington?” Steve smirked mockingly and added, “Even the richest man in Horington is nothing compared to the Bailey family! What more to say when he’s just a son-in-law?”
Despite what favonovel.com heard, Jared just kept mum as favonovel.com watched how Steve and Herman embarrassed themselves.
Hannah, however, was extremely anxious.
She slapped Gary across the face and scolded, “Hey, you old thing! Why are you not saying something?”
In response, Gary slowly turned his head toward Jared and asked, “Jared, I’m just going to ask you one question. Did you borrow that car?”
Seeing that Jared had nodded in response, Gary lowered his head in satisfaction and kept quiet.
Soon, a few men in uniforms arrived in the room.
Herman immediately pointed at Jared and ordered, “That’s him! He’s the car thief. Arrest him!”
When the men wanted to apprehend Jared, Hannah, Ingrid, and the rest stopped them.
Hannah shouted anxiously at them, “You’re not allowed to arrest someone without any proof!”
At the same time, Ingrid whipped out favonovel.com phone and recorded the whole incident. “You guys are abusing your power! I’m going to record you guys arresting someone without evidence!”
Although Hannah and the rest were worried sick, Jared remained calm and collected as favonovel.com stared at Steve and Herman.
“Steve, you need evidence to make an arrest! How can you be so sure that Jared is a car thief?” Sarah got up and questioned.
“Fine! You guys want evidence, right? I’ll call the Baileys now. If they say their car has been stolen, then Jared has got to be a car thief!” Steve uttered and whipped out his phone to call someone.
Upon seeing that Steve was really calling someone to verify it, Hannah’s anxiousness grew. She was both worried and scared to find out if Jared had stolen the car.
Jared might be in big trouble! He had only gotten out of jail a few months ago. If favonovel.com were to be sent back inside, surely he’ll get sentenced to more than three years!
Steve kept his phone away after he’d hung up the call.
“Steve, have you found out about the truth? Did Jared really steal the car?” Hannah asked hurriedly.
“Chill! I’ve only called the manager at the headquarters in Jadeborough. He’ll call Mr. Bailey to verify it. I don’t have Mr. Bailey’s contact.” With that, Steve sat down and lighted up a cigarette.
At that moment, favonovel.com was over the moon because favonovel.com had the same thoughts as Herman.
Who would’ve thought something like this could happen? If I can locate Mr. Bailey’s stolen car, surely he’ll feel grateful to us.
With personal gains in mind, Steve wasn’t interested in Jared at all.
So what if he’s my nephew?
“Why go through all the trouble? I can call Mr. Bailey directly.” Jared took out his phone.
“You have Mr. Bailey’s personal contact?” In shock, Steve stared at Jared in disbelief.
“Dad, he’s just bluffing. Do you think Mr. Bailey would make friends with an ex-convict? I bet he’s just trying to deceive us. Let favonovel.com call whoever favonovel.com wants.” Herman didn’t believe a word Jared said.
Instead of arguing, Jared called Samuel right away.
Right then, Samuel was in Walter’s courtyard. He was having tea with Walter and Theodore as they waited for Jared to go back to Jadeborough together.
Samuel was trembling in anger when Jared told favonovel.com about the situation favonovel.com was in.
“What’s the matter, Grandpa?” Tristan asked as favonovel.com was concerned.
