After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 471

Chapter 471 Two Options

I had thought I would be released soon since it was a summon for investigations and not an arrest. However, it seemed like it was merely wishful thinking on my part. They did not release me even till late at night.

What made me even more frantic was how I was broken off from all forms of contact with the outside world. As much as I had been through many hardships and matured a lot, it would be a lie if I said I was not scared about what I was going through at this point.

That night, I was all alone when a police officer came to me and flatly remarked, “Someone is here to visit you.”

A pang of joy hit me when I heard that, and without hesitation, I followed behind him.

Upon walking out, I realized it was Lincoln. That made me disappointed as I had thought it would be Michael.

“Ms. Garcia, it sure doesn’t feel good to be inside for the whole day, isn’t it?” Lincoln coldly muttered as he sat down opposite me.

I tamped down the roaring rage in my chest as I took my seat. The hint of guilt residing in me, if there was any, had entirely faded away at that point. I might appear as cold as ice on the outside, but I was in a full-blown inferno deep inside.

“Isn’t this all part of your setup? Did you already bribe the police to charge me with the crime of causing intentional hurt? I’ve said before that I didn’t do it on purpose. Why are you still doing that?”

There was no way I could wrap my head around why Lincoln would do that. How could he be so heartless? Did he not spare a thought for Michael and Amaury’s feelings?

“How smart you are. You’ve got the right answer with one try.” His tone was still as calm as before.

The lack of denial was enough to prove that he had given his silent agreement and, undeniably, I was mad about it.

“Don’t you think you’ve crossed the line? Don’t you see how cruel your actions are toward me?” I spoke stoically with an icy glare while trying to keep my cool.

“I know what I did will bring you trouble. I have no intention to land you in jail either. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here right now.”

Lincoln’s face remained the same even when faced with my questioning. The gaze he shot at me was still as calm as how he always appeared to be.

I had to admit that I looked a little too immature in front of an experienced man like him.

“No intention of sending me to jail? Then why am I locked in here right now? Is this not what you wanted to see?”
