“Mr. Smith, something happened to Ms. Johnson!”
Law enforcement officers showed up at the villa.
For people at the villa to find out about this was incredibly easy.
Especially for someone with Daniel’s status.
York got the news and reported it immediately.

When Daniel heard this, he stood up abruptly. The sudden movement made him dizzy, but fortunately, he managed to grab
the chair in time.
“Mr. Smith!”
York was also startled and quickly stepped forward to support him, feeling somewhat remorseful.
Because he knew Emily’s importance to Daniel, he wanted to notify Daniel immediately, but overlooked his physical
condition.
He seemed like an irresponsible subordinate.
Daniel steadied himself, then slowly sat back down. His earlier expression had already returned to normal.
York was a bit confused. “Mr. Smith, you wait here, I’ll go help Ms. Johnson right away!”
“Stop!”
Daniel called out to York, preventing his next move.
“No rush, let’s wait and see what happens first!”
He believed the law enforcement officers wouldn’t show up for no reason–someone must have done something.
Right now, Emily had just been approached, and the situation wasn’t clear yet. He needed to understand the specifics
before considering how to help her.
Daniel was very worried about Emily.
But the more worried he was, the more he needed to stay rational.

Chapter 255
It was good that Daniel didn’t act impulsively.
Because these people came to investigate Hayden.
A36
Hayden was in Daniel’s villa, which could easily lead law enforcement to make connections.
Emily let the law enforcement officers in, and they began searching inside and out.
They didn’t find any trace of Hayden.
However, since someone had reported Emily, even though they didn’t find anyone, they still needed to take her back for a
simple questioning.
“Sorry, Ms. Johnson, but we’ll have to trouble you to come with us for a simple inquiry!”
The law enforcement officers also provided their reasoning: because of Emily’s attempt to rescue Hayden, the Johnson family had made news at the time, so, with some investigation, they could find out the whole story.
So, the Johnson family claimed to suspect that Hayden wasn’t actually tricked into going to Zephyria, but was secretly held captive by Emily, who then took the opportunity to demand Johnson Group shares.
Emily wasn’t afraid of any investigation, so she went with them to the police station.
This news immediately spread through the villa to their social circle.
[You know, Emily, that daughter the Johnson family kicked out? I heard she was taken away by law enforcement. Wonder
what she did?]
[Definitely nothing good. The Johnson family had good foresight. I heard she was lost for years before they found her, so she must have gone bad during that time. The Johnson family’s other daughter, Bianca, is pretty outstanding, right?]
[Hard to say if she’s outstanding. Just the other day, there was bad news about her, too. And that Chase guy – used to be called a star, then got caught up in plagiarism accusations and had to quit the industry.]
Seeing the discussion starting to go off track, someone immediately jumped in.
[Those are all rumors, but this one has photos. She was personally taken away by law enforcement – isn’t that proof
enough?]
There were photos, and they didn’t look photoshopped. Many people shifted the topic back to Emily.
Emily’s past troubles were dug up again. Whether people in the circle knew her or not, they all thought she was a thoroughly bad girl now.

Chapter 255
Everyone in the circle was connected, and as a wealthy person, Byron was also in these gossip groups, so he naturally saw.
it too.
He was furious.
He immediately started arguing with these people.
Byron: [How good can you be? Seducing your own stepmother, throwing away all morals, and you dare mention Emily? Emily is excellent you’re not even worthy of carrying her shoes.J
*
Byron: [Your mouth is so foul, must be genetic. But I heard your family has body odor- how come with you it’s foul mouth! Aren’t you afraid of doing too many bad things and going bankrupt?]
Byron was usually sharp–tongued, and now, in his fury, his insults were unstoppable.
So many people either left the group or played dead.
Of course, there were a few bold ones who dared to talk back.
[Byron, I’ve been annoyed with you for a while! Who do you think you are! Don’t bully people just because of your family background–everyone here got where they are on their own merit. Why are you defending some abandoned child from a bottom–tier family? What, you into that woman? Well, looking at Emily’s figure and face, she’d be fun to play with, but don’t take it too seriously. When you’re tired of her, let us have a turn!]
This group was for rich playboys eating, drinking, and partying. So everyone was wild, speaking without any restraint.
Byron was furious.
He was about to explode.
Unexpectedly, Sophia appeared in the group somehow.
[When you see a woman, you only think about sex–did you forget your mom is also a woman? Or did your head and ass
get switched at birth? Disgusting!]
Byron saw Sophia cursing and was surprised by how skillfully she could insult people.
He couldn’t help giving Sophia a thumbs up.
That person didn’t know Sophia and couldn’t help asking: [Who are you? Who invited you in? Never seen you before.]
This person wasn’t completely stupid. Not knowing Sophia’s background, he kept his insults measured–in case she had an important identity, he wouldn’t offend her too badly.

Chapter 255
Byron, being sharp, naturally saw why the person suddenly became pollte.
Byron: Loser!]
He sneered and said nothing more.
Everyone understood why he insulted him.
Byron then privately messaged Sophia.
Byron: [Why did you join the group chat? Do you know what’s going on with Emily?]
Sophia couldn’t help rolling her eyes: [What else? A neighbor in the group knows I like Emily, so they sent me screenshots. I was so angry I’d burst if I didn’t say something. Since you were there too and I wasn’t afraid of being ganged up on, I figured I’d join and get it off my chest. About Emily’s situation, I was going to ask you guess you don’t know either!]
–
She didn’t even know Emily had gone abroad. Turns out the Johnson family had pressured Emily like this.
Even someone as strong as Emily couldn’t escape the constraints of her birth family.
Her heart ached for Emily!
Byron didn’t expect this. After thinking, he suggested: [Emily’s in trouble, we naturally need to find out what happened and help. Let’s go to the law enforcement office first and ask around – best if we can see Emily.]
Sophia had the same idea and immediately said: [Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now!]
But since it was dark, the two decided to go to the law enforcement office together tomorrow to check on Emily.
Emily was currently at the law enforcement office, being questioned in a routine manner and not harmed in any way.
But the person behind this wanted to enjoy their handiwork and couldn’t wait to see Emily’s miserable state first.
