After all, there was no conclusive evidence. Although the Tanner Corporation put precedence on the case, La Beauté Group was difficult to mess with. Alexander went through the formalities and quickly released Lily on bail.
There was nothing to say along the way, but his face was gloomy. Alexander was furious, and Lily noticed it. It would be better if he had said something, but he did not. It seemed like an enormous storm was brewing.
She took one of his hands lightly and said, "I'm fine."
Alexander looked at his wife and remained silent. He only turned his hand over and held hers.
"I'm fine. Don’t I look okay? The police only needed me to answer a few questions for the investigation. They don't have any conclusive evidence and only some speculative insinuations," she said softly.
"They set up a scheme, but unfortunately, they didn’t do it well. I should have arranged to meet up with Damian earlier so at least it can prove that I may have colluded with him," she said half-jokingly.
Lily was not nervous about this matter since it had nothing to do with her. After all, the judge would look at the evidence even if she went to court. However, if the others involved delayed this situation, it would affect her progress on Lisa’s perfume.
"How could you joke about this?" Alexander glanced at Lily helplessly, but her smile dissipated his anger. Still, he was furious that these people were courageous enough to set this up and get Lily into trouble. Did they honestly think they could get away with it?
