Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 459

After hanging up the call, Ethan stepped out of the break room, and looked at the three officers standing before him. “Gentlemen, what were you saying?”

“Mr. Meyer, a few years back, the Meyer Group had a security incident. An agreement was reached between the Meyer Group and the victims’ families, involving a substantial amount of compensation. However, the families are now alleging that they accepted the compensation under duress. We need you to accompany us to the station for an investigation.”

Ethan’s brow furrowed slightly. He just got news of the past incident. The reason Leila had switched the blueprints was because Russel had threatened her using Silvia. As for the allegation of threatening the families, that was impossible.

Ethan quickly understood Russel’s intention. He was doing this on purpose, probably to distract him, so he would not have time to deal with Jacob’s situation. This trip to the station was not going to be simple, and he guessed it would take at least a few days.

Sensing the officers’ determination to do their duty, Ethan realized that he had no choice but to go with them. “Who filed the complaint?”

“The families involved in the accident,” one officer replied.

Ethan remained silent. The officer who had spoken earlier said, “Mr. Meyer, please don’t make this difficult for us.”

Ethan gave a light smile. “Alright, let’s go.”

After ending her call with Ethan, Ines felt increasingly worried. She quickly grabbed her bag and headed out the door. Silas, startled by her sudden action, asked, “Izzy, where are you going?”

“Something seems to have happened to Ethan. I need to see what’s going on.”

“Just be careful, and don’t worry too much. Ethan won’t let anything happen to himself.”

Ines nodded, but her heart was pounding as she rushed into the elevator. Watson had the car ready and was waiting for her.

Ines quickly got into the car and said to Watson, “Watson, drive faster. We need to get to the Meyer Group to find Ethan.”

Seeing Ines’ worried expression, Watson immediately started the car. “Don’t worry, the Meyer Group is not far from here. We’ll be there in three minutes.”

When they arrived at the Meyer Group, they saw Ethan walking out with three policemen. Ines’ heart skipped a beat. She quickly got out of the car.

Ethan also noticed the woman running towards him in her high heels. He smiled slightly as she reached for his hand. “Are you going to the police station now?”

Ethan nodded. “Yes, we’re heading there now.”

“How long will it take?” Ines’ voice trembled slightly.

“I don’t know yet, but don’t worry. It will only be for a few days.”

“A few days?” This was no trivial matter. The thought of Ethan spending a few days at the station weighed heavily on Ines’ heart.
