A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

After everything was taken care of, Darren finally felt slightly relieved. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes to clear his mind.

It was him that Jacob was after. Bonnie deciding to take the blame for the crime was the last thing that Darren had expected her to do. What a silly girl.

Regret suddenly flashed through Darren's dark eyes. However, anger quickly replaced them as he remembered the events of the last few days.

Darren would tolerate Jacob doing anything to him, but he would never allow Jacob to do anything to his woman! Darren couldn't help but scowl because of his seething anger.

The thought of Bonnie confessing to a crime she didn't commit because of Jacob made his blood boil. With gritted teeth, he squinted his eyes and muttered, “I will make you pay for what you've done, Jacob!“

As the saying went, revenge was a dish best served cold. If he wanted to get back at Jacob and hit him where it hurt, then he must plan carefully. There was no need to rush. Darren was willing to sacrifice anything just to take down Jacob. However, right now, the most important thing for him was to wait for Bonnie's release. Once Bonnie was back in his arms, then all his worries would just fade away.

Having made his decision, Darren knew he shouldn't waste any more time. He gathered his thoughts, stood up, grabbed his coat, and walked out of the company building.

From what he was told, Bonnie would be released in the evening as long as they didn't encounter any more problems. So, all he was concerned about was throwing Bonnie a heart-warming dinner party to celebrate her release.

Time passed by quickly and evening came in a flash.

Darren had already prepared the dinner party in advance, so all that was left to do was to pick Bonnie up from the police station. He was more than happy to get her from the police station.

However, to his dismay, he was not greeted by Bonnie when they arrived at the station. He was expecting Bonnie to come out of the interrogation room but instead, a young man clad in a police uniform walked out of there.

As the young officer sauntered towards them, Darren's gentle expression slowly turned furious.

“What happened?“ he asked in a demanding tone. Darren aggressively turned his head to glare at Harlan. His eyebrows pulled down together as he frowned at him.

Hearing his boss's exasperated tone, Harlan's expression turned serious too. He walked over to Darren and replied in a whisper, “Something else must have happened, though I'm not sure what. My people have assured me that there wouldn't be any problem with her release.“
