Jensen's residence.

"What exactly is going on here?" Jensen placed his phone on the table, staring at Ilse with a grave expression.

Ilse picked it up and her expression changed slightly. She didn't really care if Vance could threaten her, but how dare he turn around and bite her back!

"So, you were behind Charlotte's brother's situation? I told you not to cause unnecessary trouble at this critical juncture. Did you just ignore what I said?"

Ilse was even more annoyed now. She put the phone down, "I thought Charlotte was pregnant and did it to warn her. Who knew..."

Jensen paused, "She's not pregnant?"

"If she were pregnant, would Evander not know? Even the Rayburn family hasn't made a move. It seems she's not pregnant."

Jensen was silent for a moment, then stood up, "Handle the news matter yourself."

After he went upstairs, Ilse's face darkened. She needed to silence Vance quickly!

Meanwhile, Hiram was released from the police station.

Charlotte was waiting early by the car to greet him.

He was stunned, then slowly walked over, "Big sister?"

Charlotte reached out and squeezed his shoulders, "You look thinner. You've really been wronged these past few days."

Hiram lowered his head, was silent for a long time, then asked, "Big sister, I'm sorry."

"Why are you apologizing?" she asked, puzzled.

"It's my fault. I dragged you into this. I never thought Vance would betray me. I don't know what I did to offend him. I really considered him my best friend..." As Hiram spoke, his voice became muffled, and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

They were university classmates, got hired by the same company, and Vance was the person he trusted most there.

But he never expected that his most trusted friend would be the one to ruin his reputation.

Charlotte gently patted his back, "It's okay. It's a good thing to see someone's true colors early. You lose one friend, but you'll always find better ones. There's no need to dwell on someone not worth it. Come on, I'll take you out for a nice meal."

When they arrived at the restaurant, they ordered a quite lavish feast. Hiram hadn't eaten or slept well during his days inside, so now he dug in with gusto.
