BOOKSDRAMA Chapter 1749
Chapter 1749:
"Our duty is to investigate these claims thoroughly. We assure you that no innocent person will be wronged, but no guilty party will be spared either. Please, Mr. Wallace, come with us," Zavier explained, his tone unyielding.
Emanuel attempted to maintain his composure.
"I understand. May I have a moment to speak with my wife? This is quite unexpected, and I need to manage a few things at the company."
Zavier firmly responded, “Mrs. Wallace and your daughter should accompany us as well."
A dark emotion flickered in Emanuel's eyes. Who was plotting against his family from behind?
Emanuel clenched his fist tightly, his eyes darting around as he smiled and continued, "Mr. Estrada, you're familiar with both the Wallace family and the Sampson family..."
Emanuel had hoped that mentioning the Sampson family would soften Zavier's stance, yet he was taken aback when Zavier cut him off before he could finish his plea.
"Mr. Wallace, this directive originates from Baythorn. The Sampson family offers you no shield."
Following these words, Zavier gestured to his team, and they proceeded to handcuff Emanuel.
The officers hesitated, assessing Eloise from head to toe, and then handcuffed her as well.

"Mrs. Wallace, you're required to accompany Eloise was immediately overtaken by panic. Accustomed to a life of luxury since her marriage to the Wallace family, she had lost sight of the law's reach over them. Her composure was rapidly deteriorating.

Before Eloise could blurt out that Hazel was behind the arson, Hazel appeared, composed.
"I will accompany you. I trust my father has done nothing reprehensible!"
Hazel's face remained unwavering, radiating confidence, as though Emanuel really hadn't done anything wrong.
The reason for Eloise's loss of composure resurfaced at this moment. She had masterminded her daughter's crime, a secret that logically could not be revealed. Perhaps Emanuel had inadvertently drawn her and Hazel into this mess. She needed to regain her composure to avoid self-incrimination.
The three of them entered the police car. Hazel, puzzled, asked, "Dad, why have they detained you? Did Mr. Sampson not assist?"
"The mandate is directly from Baythorn. He's unable to assist," Emanuel responded gravely. He couldn't understand how he had caught the attention of people in Baythorn. Damn it, if he found out which fool had sabotaged his plans, he would make them pay a heavy price!

Noticing her father's distress, Hazel
stopped pressing for answers. She gently rubbed the spot where she had bumped her head and then closed her eyes. The Sanderson family wielded significant influence in Baythorn. Harlee had indeed taken
action against the Wallace family.

Despite trying to appear composed, Hazel felt her fear escalating. She wondered about her fate if Garlee had discovered her role in the fire in Sunnydale. No, she couldn't end up behind bars. She was too young, with her whole life ahead of her. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
