Chapter 156
The moment Ella's father heard that the police had arrived, his face turned pale. "What?" He managed to speak out of bewilderment.
He had anticipated trouble when he found out that Lukas Strakovski was the one who sent the photos and the finger, but he never expected it to escalate so quickly.
Officer Parker, who is leading a group of people, came inside.
"Mr. Rhodes, we have received reports that you have been involved in embezzlement and bribery on multiple occasions.
Now that the evidence is conclusive, we request your presence to discuss this matter further."
Ella's father's face turned even grayer. He had lost all his composure. As he was being handcuffed and taken away, Ella held onto his hand tightly, crying and pleading, "Dad, I'm sorry!
I'll apologize to Lukas with you. Please find a way to avoid getting arrested. Don't let them take you away, please!"
Ella's father's expression was defeated, and he said, "Ella, I'm afraid it's over for me this time. Don't marry Gerald Hughes.
Once I'm in trouble, if you marry him, you'll only be mistreated.
Leave this place with your mother as soon as possible."
After saying these words, he was dragged into the car.
Ella cried out desperately.
Ella's mother, who was usually indecisive and always relied on her husband, was now standing in the yard, confused and frightened.

At the same time, at Cresta Del Bosque.
Victoria had been to this place before, but with her identity, she had only been to the eighth-grade private rooms in the main halls. It was the first time she entered the first-grade private room of the Sala de Bambú Verde, and she was curious about it.
The difference between the first-grade and eighth-grade private rooms was like night and day.
The halls for discussions were about the same size as the eighth- grade private rooms, not to mention the corridors adjacent to the private rooms. These pavilions and pavilions were all connected to the private rooms, and each corridor was marked with its purposes, such as chess rooms, swimming pools, saunas, and m o r e .
Victoria swept her eyes on her surroundings in amazement as she followed Martins, walking inside a room in this high-end club.
When she saw Lukas sitting on the sofa, she immediately felt the difference in status between the two of them.
She smiled ingratiatingly, "Mr. Strakovski, I heard that you wanted to see me."
Lukas's tone was indifferent, "Take a seat."
Victoria sat on the sofa, looking at Lukas with a smile, "Mr.
Strakovski, what can I do for you?"
Lukas glanced at her and said, "I heard you want to get Bella into Strakovski Jewelry."
