The Ceo’s Convict Wife

Chapter 1254

“Didn’t you say Zephyr would help the Summer family? Look at us now! How’s this helping at all? He didn’t even bother!” fumed Peter.

Harriet’s face fell. “It’s all because of Riley screwing us up.”

“You’re the one useless as hell. After donkey years, you still failed to win Zephyr’s heart,” reprimanded Peter.

Harriet’s visage became all the grimmer on the spot. “In two days, my parents-in-law will be back with Hendrick. By then, even if Zephyr refuses to come up with something, I can always ask my parents-in-law to help the Summer family out. If I were to go to jail, the Scott family name would be dragged through the mire!”

“Are you sure they’ll really help us?” Larissa was worried.

“You all know how much they doted on Hendrick, don’t you? Besides, over the years, Zephyr never had anyone else except me. Hendrick is the Scott family’s only heir!” stated Harriet.

Only after hearing that did Larissa feel a tad relieved.

At that moment, a housekeeper suddenly hurried in and reported, “Mr. and Mrs. Summer, Ms. Summer, the police are here, saying that they’re going to take you back for questioning.”

The Summer family of three were astounded.

Before they had time to react, the police officers had already stepped in and called out all their names right away. “We now suspect that you’re related to Riley’s case. You guys will need to come with us. In addition, Ms. Harriet Summer, I’m afraid that you’re also allegedly involved in an assault, intentionally putting others in harm’s way and causing physical disability.”

On the heels of that, another policeman stepped forward and handcuffed the three members of the Summer family.

The trio’s mien took an immediate change for the worse. It was then that Peter began to bellow, “We’ll be cooperative with the police investigation, but what are these handcuffs for, huh? Are you taking us as suspects already? I need to speak to my lawyer! We’re suing you!”

“Of course, you’ll get to contact your lawyer following the procedures later on. But now, you three are prime suspects, so you’ll be put under temporary detention!”
