The chief was speechless. He had not expected that Emmeline would want to watch 'a show'.
Cheating and affairs was a headache to even hear of, let alone watch.
The chief did not understand.
"Tell everyone to have their family members bail them out!" Emmeline said to the chief.
The chief hung his head.
"Just do as I tell you to," Emmeline added.
"Ms. Louise," the chief said quietly. "Are you serious about this? You're not angry?"
"No, I'm not!" Emmeline said, a little impatient. "You really are long-winded!"
"No, no," the chief said bitterly. "I'm just worried my superiors will give me hell if I don't do enough."
"Well, this is what I'm telling you to do. No one's going to yell at you for it," Emmeline said, huffing exasperatedly. "Now could you please get on with it? I'm starting to get fed up."
"..." The chief nodded meekly at last.
"Also," Emmeline said. "Put everyone in one cell?"
"One cell? Won't it be a bit of a squeeze?" The chief said, confused. "I was just going to have you wait here."
"What the hell am I supposed to watch from here, huh?" Emmeline was starting to get annoyed.
Could this chief just get on with it?
What a long winded man!
The chief seemed to understand Emmeline's intentions at last, and bumbled off to do as told.
Emmeline returned to her cell.
Sure enough, the mistress and her group of accomplices were brought over in no time.
"Oh, look who it is," the mistress said to her friends, nodding in Jennie's direction. "Useless in bed!"
Jennie was about to give her a big slap, but Emmeline held her back.
"Calm down, Jennie. You'll get your revenge in just a bit."
Jennie glowered at the mistress, swallowing her anger. "I'll do just that, Ms. Louise."
The police station had already reached out to everyone's family members.
Jennie had called Norman, and the mistress had called her brother-in-law.
Everyone else had either called their husbands, boyfriends or even friends.
The mistress had asked to call Norman at first.
Only for the police officer to glare at her. "Ms. Whittaker's already informed him!"
Norman was Jennie's husband, what did the mistress have to do with him?
She really was shameless!
The mistress said nothing.
Just they wait till Norman got here!
Beating her up into this state, Norman would be furious!
Just you wait and see, Jennie Whittaker!
The women waited in silence for their family members to bail them out.
Sam, Emmeline and Doris' 'family member' was Benjamin.
What Emmeline did not expect was for Abel to show up as well.
Benjamin had entered first, the light from the entrance illuminating his figure.
Emmeline and Sam knew it was him with just one glance.
Doris could tell it was him as well.
After all, Benjamin frequented Nightfall Cafe quite a lot.
Jennie, however, was a little confused. Who was this man?
The mistress' friends were also in a daze.
Despite not seeing his face, the man's tall and broad figure was enough to make the ladies swoon.
Thoughts began to fill their heads as they gawked at him hungrily.
Oh my, who was this man?
Was he here for me?
I didn't have a 'family member' like that, though!
Benjamin strode into the detention center. He spotted Emmeline, and walked over.
Someone recognized him. Wasn't that the CEO of Adelmar Group, Benjamin York?
Another lady confirmed this.
Yes, it really was him!
But Benjamin was walking towards the b*tch who had beaten them all up.
Was he related to her?
The women grew jealous at once, rolling their eyes.
"Are you alright, Emma?"
Benjamin asked Emmeline the question warmly, looking her up and down to check if she was hurt.
