It was Ryan.
He was wearing a black suit with gold-rimmed glasses, looking gentle and elegant.
He raised his head and nodded as a greeting to Benjamin before asking, "How is it going?"
Benjamin said, "Due to pressure from the media and various parties, the police decided to temporarily detain Harper because the public opinion on the Internet led them to consider her to be the primary suspect."
Ryan nodded and then directly demanded to see the person in charge of the case.
Benjamin winked at Curtis, who immediately went to notify Owen and his boss.
Expressionless, Ryan said bluntly, "I am Harper's attorney. I want to know why my client is being detained. There is no conclusive evidence that she is to blame."
The police's response was not much different from what Benjamin had said.
Ryan displayed screenshots of some of the vicious and malicious comments made by netizens about this incident.
Ryan said, "Judging from the current situation, I think my client is the victim. Moreover, she is pregnant now. If any accident happens to her during her detention at the police station, who will be responsible for it?"
Harper's pregnancy, along with Ryan's bail requirements and conditions, resulted in the revocation of her custody.
She could leave the police station.
After the formalities were completed, Ryan said to Benjamin, "There is no need to hide anything from the media when Harper is released from the police station on bail. On the contrary, you have to take her out openly. I will promptly accuse all reporters, media, and individuals on the Internet and ask for apologies"
Ryan issued a statement through his law firm's official account, but he only mentioned a few popular media outlets and reporters, as well as some gossip influencers.
Ryan's identity and abilities were known to all. As soon as his statement came out, some people began to apologize and delete those inappropriate remarks at once.
Because the lawyer's letter was not forged, and the lawyer was Ryan, many netizens suggested that Harper was accidentally implicated by public opinion.
Less than a minute after Ryan's lawyer's letter was sent, news spread that Lauren's work had been suspended.
Netizens immediately burst into discussion. [Is the Martin Group denying Lauren's speech?]
[Did Lauren talk nonsense?]
[Do Benjamin and Harper have a stable relationship without any inclination towards divorce?]
[Look, I've guessed right. Even with the desire to take over the Martin Group, she will be with Benjamin for the rest of her life. In this way, the company will ultimately be hers. Why would she take unnecessary risks?]
[In my opinion, Lauren deliberately misled us. How evil! I hope her fans will not notice my comment.]
[I agree.]
