Ashley and Mason had gone to see Athena not just to cheer her up, but to intimidate her into silence.They meant to make Athena know that the Howard family was behind them.
In order to force Athena to join them, they used both coercion and seduction.
Nobody knew that Athena had already been discovered by Marcus.
Marcus was straightforward.He directly told her that they were clear about what she and Ashley had done.
It would be smart of her to choose the right side or she could end up in prison.
Athena never thought that Ashley was not only against Valeria, but also the Wolf Group.
She was clever enough to know not to be enemy against Wolf Group.
So she divulged everything right away.So the meeting with Athena was actually a trap.
Athena brought a recording pen according to Marcus's instructions.
The whole conversation was recorded, and also Mason and Ashley's ugliness.
Athena handed the recording pen to Marcus, and Marcus immediately called the police in the name of Valeria.
Ashley and Mason thought that they had done a great job.
They just returned to their houses.
And the police arrived and arrested them.
Ashley and Mason were handcuffed and taken away.
Julie saw Ashley taken by police, so she immediately called Ronald.
Ronald was bringing two badly injured bodyguards with bloody faces to the hospital.
Their eyes were bloodshot and they couldn't see anything.
Ronald was thinking about calling the police to punish William.
When he received a call from Julie and heard that Ashley was taken away by the police, Ronald became extremely impatient.
"What happened again? Why the f*ck do all of you enjoy making trouble for me? I'm occupied now!"
"Ronald, you can't leave her alone.She is pregnant! If something happens to her, it will be terrible”
As Julie reminded Ronald, he recalled the cooperation with the Howard family was because of Ashley, so he eased his anger.
"Why did they take her away? Any reason ?"
"They said that Ashley was suspected of forging evidence and slandering.By the way, Mason was also took away.I'm so panicked and have no idea about what to do.You should go there quickly!"
Now, Julie didn't dare to hide anything longer.
She clearly knew that her daughter and Mason had framed Valeria.She thought that with the Howard family backing them up , she could definitely make Valeria ended up in jail.
But she didn't expect that her daughter to be arrested, instead of Valeria.
And Mason was also handcuffed.
It was too bad.
Ronald realized something was wrong when he heard that Mason had also been taken away.
Something terrible must have happened.
All his troubles were gathered around tonight.
Ronald rushed to the police station to check out the situation, with no time to think about anything else.
The car stopped at the entrance of the police station, and Elizabeth's car came over.
They met each other at the gate.
Not knowing what happened, Ronald was not awkward.
He asked Elizabeth, "Madam Howard, do you know about it?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Elizabeth's face.
"Not really.Get in and take a look"
Then she took the lawyer walking into the station, Ronald followed.
Mason and Ashley were asked in two interrogation rooms.
In the beginning, Mason was very arrogant.
He refused to say anything and kept shouting that he was waiting for the lawyer.
Until the police played the recording, he started to panic.
He finally realized the conversation tonight with Athena was actually monitored.
He could imagine how serious the consequences would be.
Ashley, the d*mn woman, had got him a big trouble.
He was in a panic, but didn't say anything and waited for Elizabeth to save him.
