Chapter 421
Chapter 421
Jasper followed behind Skylar as they left the police station. He had not spoken a word.
Skylar asked Jasper, "Do you need a lift?"
Even since the incident on Skylar's leg, he rarely drove on his own. The last time he drove on his own
was when he dropped the ransom money.
This time, of course, he came with his driver.
"No need."
Jasper shook his head and got into a car parked not far away.
His heart was filled with mixed emotions. He did not want to admit his failure even though the facts
were right in front of him.
What happened just now seemed to have defied all of Valerie's words previously, which meant that he
had believed in her blindly.
Ever since that day, the police had started to investigate the kidnapping case. They had also started to
investigate the case 10 years ago as new evidence had surfaced. Although the case was 10 years ago,
it could still be investigated.
Valerie was locked up in the detention center.
Hector and Amelia news of it.
"What should we do?"
After Amelia heard extremely anxious Hector's office.
immediately received
the news, she was and circled around
They both knew about the car accident 10 years ago and they also believed that Valerie might have
helped Finley for a while.
"What should we do? What else can you do other than ask? Why don't you go home if you are not able
to help?"
Hector felt dizzy when he saw Amelia pacing around his office. He was also extremely upset!
"If I can't help, can you? Valerie told you about Finley at that time but you did not take it seriously and
told her to settle it herself. Look at the big mess she is in now!"
"Are you blaming me? She was the one who drove the car and killed the man, but it was me who
helped her cover it up. Now you're blaming me?"
Back then, when Valerie had been involved in the car accident, it was Hector who helped her figure out
a solution so that she did not need to go to prison.
Moreover, they had already given a large sum of money to Finley's family. Who would have thought
that Finley was such a greedy person?
"I don't care. Valerie is going to get married soon. We cannot let the Zac family know about this. We
must bail her out immediately, otherwise, things will become worse!"
Amelia knew that because of Valerie and Jasper's relationship, the Rae and Zac family have had many
opportunities to work together.
If they knew that something had happened to Valerie, the wedding might be cancelled. That would
bring a great loss to the Rae Family.
"Do you think I don't know that? I have just contacted the police and they said that she is a major
suspect and cannot be bailed!"
"Try to pay them instead. What's that word? Post bail and await trial! Ask them to let Valerie out first.
How can she eat and drink well in the detention center? The weather is so hot now and there is no air
conditioning there. How can Valerie withstand such suffering?"
When Amelia spoke, her eyes turned red as she thought about Valerie in such harsh conditions.
"Alright! I got it. You may leave now!" Hector's heart ached when he heard Amelia's words. After all,
Valerie was his daughter. All fathers cared about their children but he also knew that he did not have
the authority to let her out.
"I won't leave. If you don't get Valerie out today, then I won't leave!"
"Do you think the police will easily obey my words?"
"Then find someone! You are the president of Rae Group! You can't even handle such a small matter?"
Hector slammed the table after he heard Amelia's words and said angrily, "Do you think that the Rae
family is very powerful in A City? It was Skylar's mother and wife who have been kidnapped this time.
Skylar will not easily let go of the accomplices. Who would dare to bail Valerie out?"
Hector's words hit the jackpot.
Amelia was stunned. She suddenly understood. It would be fine if it was an unknown person who had
been kidnapped, but it was Coralie and Lillian. She also knew how Skylar felt about Coralie.
After what had happened, Skylar would definitely not let go of this. He would definitely make sure that
Valerie went to prison.
"Then... In that case, let's go and beg Skylar. We have watched him grow up. He wouldn't be so
heartless as to turn his back on us, would he?"
"I've had a lot of dealings with Skyton Corporation these days. Do you still think that Skylar is still the
kid from back then? He's very arrogant now and does not care about anyone."
Hector and Skylar also had some business dealings.
He was very familiar with Skylar's style of execution.
"I don't care! I'm going to look for him!"
Amelia could not care anymore. The longer Valerie stayed in the detention center, the more she would
suffer. As her mother, Amelia could not bear to see it!
"Come back!"
Hector looked at Amelia and wanted to stop her. However, Amelia had already arrived at the elevator,
therefore he could only follow her.
Amelia arrived at the front desk of Skyton Corporation. When the front desk informed her that Skylar
was not in office, she suddenly felt lost.
Just then, Hector called and told her that Skylar was in the police station and asked her to go with him.
When they arrived at the police station, Skylar was talking to Ned in the guest room.
"President Holland." Amelia did not care if she bothered them. She went in and immediately said,
"Kindly release Valerie."
Amelia had always been regarded as a noble woman. She dressed decently and spoke very gently.
She would not easily get agitated.
However at that moment, because Valerie was involved, she did not care about etiquette.
"Auntie Harington."
Skylar sat there with his legs crossed. He saw Amelia coming in, followed by Hector who had a very
calm expression.
"President Holland, Valerie has only made one mistake, but she was forced to do that."
Amelia did not dare to call Skylar by his given name anymore. She only dared to call him President
Holland.
"Auntie Harington, if Valerie did not ask Finley to go to prison on her behalf previously, I'm sure a rogue
like Finley would never have the chance to even talk to a family like yours." RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Skylar said calmly as he took a sip of the water from the glass in front of him.
There were no emotions in his words. He was just describing facts.
Amelia and Hector's expressions fell after they heard Skylar's words. However, Amelia still believed
that there was a glimmer of hope and continued, "President Holland, you said so yourself that the man
was a rogue. Can you believe his words? How could we have anything to do with people like him?"
"Auntie Harington, our evidence is conclusive. The truth will remain the truth even if you deny them."
"President Holland, my Valerie was wrongly accused."
"I came here today to talk about another case with Captain Andrews and it has something to do with
Valerie. Would the both of you like to hear it?"
Skylar saw that Amelia and Valerie were both the same. If he did not show them concrete evidence,
they would just twist the facts and he would lose his patience.
"What is it?"
Hector, who was standing at the side, saw that there was a hint of impatience in Skylar's eyes. He
knew that Skylar did not have the patience to talk to Amelia anymore.
"Ned, please tell them what happened in the past when my wife and the others went to the mountain
for prayer and was hit by a car."
Amelia heard Skylar's words and was reminded of things. She quickly said, "Yes, President Holland,
back then, Valerie saved Mrs. Holland. Can't she atone for it this time?"
