Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 167

After she changed the topic, everyone laughed and stopped talking. Isabella took the opportunity and returned to her own office.

On the other hand, Jafari went to the police station with Christian's driver. 

Although he was really reluctant, when he thought about his families and Lexie's words, he was relieved and confessed his crimes to the police. 

His attitude was sincere as he narrated the entire process. In the end, he admitted his mistakes regretfully. However, he kept emphasising the fact that he had attempted adultery but failed in the end, and only bought some prohibited drugs.

However, just as he finished his statement, the young driver suddenly took out a thick stack of documents from his briefcase and placed it in front of the police.

"Officer, I am a legal officer of the Polygon Group. During Mr. Hand's eight years as a manager of our company, he was suspected of using the same method to raped three women. Here, we have the statements and evidence of all the parties involved.

As Jafari heard the man's clear words, he was extremely shocked. It was as if he was completely stupefied.

He's not a driver?

After a few seconds, he suddenly realised that he had been tricked by Christian.

He stood up immediately and tried to snatch the materials when he lost his mind. He yelled, "No, I didn't do it... you guys are trying to framing me... "

The other policemen quickly stopped him.

The young bailiff smiled lightly, looked at him and said, "Whether you have done it or not, the police and the court will find out. However, until things are clear, you may have to stay here for the time being, Mr, Hand."

"No, no, don't go!"

Jafari's face paled and he screamed in terror. He struggled violently to push away the person, but he was quickly suppressed.

...

After work at night, only Isabella still stayed in the office working and organising some files. Suddenly, Christian called.        

She didn't want to answer it, but thinking of the thing she asked him to investigate, she pressed the answer button. "Hello."

"Where are you now?" 

Isabella paused, "Mn... Still in the company. What's going on?"

"I'm going there for you." 

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the man's gentle voice. 

Before Isabella realised what Christian was going to to, he hung up. 

Going there for her?

To Benton or...

She was afraid that Christian would directly go upstairs to find her, so she quickly pack up her things, locked the door, and rushed out.        

After she got off the elevator, she was completely out of breath.      

She took a deep breath and looked into the distance. Before she could find anyone, a man's voice suddenly came from behind her.  

"Is there someone chasing after you? Can't you walk slower?"    

Isabella turned around and saw Christian's unhappy face.      

"I... It's all because of you." Isabella suddenly felt annoyed.      

Thinking that she was still in her company and afraid someone may see her with Christian again, she pulled his arm and walked away. "Hurry, let's go. Don't stay here."            

Seeing her acting like a thief, Christian could naturally guess what she was afraid of. Feeling a bit upset, he said: "I didn't see you did this to Luke when he took his daughter to see you here."      

Isabella walked very quickly, and blurted out a reply: "We're good. No one is gonna suspecting my relationship with him."     

Hearing this, Christian raised his eyebrows, and smiled, "So you and I are in a dubious relationship?"       

Isabella's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly stopped and threw off his arm. Her face was flushed, "We have no dobious relationship, and don't you ruin my reputation. It was just because this morning..."
