Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 88

When Ben was back in the city, he didn’t go to manage the company, nor did he visit his son back home. His first destination was the building of the Department of Public Security.

After Hanna was arrested, the lawyers from the Crawford Group went to stay with her within 48 hours. And the police didn’t get anything from her in the interrogation. So, they had to release her in 48 hours.

Once Ben arrived, the head of the department came to welcome him and explain the circumstance to him.

Obviously, Hanna was framed.

However, if they couldn’t catch Robert, Hanna would be his scapegoat. Even though she would be free this time, the police would collect more evidence and prosecute her later.

Besides, those business partners and stakeholders who got framed by Robert wouldn’t let her go so easily.

She was in dire straits.

When Ben was well informed, he asked Nate to handle everything for him and went to the interrogation room.

The room was dark. In the room, there were two chairs and a desk with a small mirror, which was opposite to the criminal suspect. It felt so depressing to just stay in here.

Since Hanna had arrived here, she had been keeping drinking coffee and interrogated by the police officer without any rest or sleep. She was not allowed to be anywhere else except the bathroom.

You could tell by her look that she was really worn out.

When the door was opened and Ben stepped inside, Hanna was thrilled.

She was surprised to see him here at the beginning, and then she smiled brightly with tears in her eyes. That was incredible.

She knew that this was still in France a few hours ago, and then flew thousands of miles to see her just because of her call.

He wouldn’t do it without his deep feeling for her.

Hanna was not an idiot. She knew he was always nice to her.

“Ben, you are here! I’m sorry! I shouldn’t interrupt your schedule…”

Soon, her joy was replaced by a sense of guilt and shame. She lowered her head and started to blame herself, “It’s my fault…”

“I’m sorry…” she kept mumbling repeatedly.

Ben only felt bitter after hearing her words.

He frowned and put a chair next to her. Then, he sat down and sigh, with his soft eyes on her, “Don’t need to apologize to me. You do nothing wrong after all.”

“But you haven’t done anything wrong, too! I shouldn’t involve you in this mess!” she lowered her head in shame, like a scolded child.

He leaned forward and raised her chin with his hand, “Just like I said, you are innocent! Even if you don’t tell me about this, I will still be here to help you once I know it.”

“Ben…” Hanna gazed at him.

It was a blessing for a woman to have a loyal and responsible husband like Ben.

“Don’t worry, just take a sleep on the table. Do you want something to eat? I can ask for a delivery.” he said.

She shook her head, “I don’t want to eat anything with so many troubles in the company.”

She said it just to laugh at herself, but Ben took it seriously.

He held her head tightly and said, “Don’t worry, I got your back. I will find Robert one way or the other.”

But she just sighed and lowered her head, “Even if we can find him, we can’t bring him back without the support of the extradition treaty.”

“I can handle this.”

Hanna looked at the deep eyes of Ben like she could see hope in them, and then nodded her head.
