Ritchie was away on a business trip to another city.Since his last phone call with his mother, he had put the matter out of his mind.He thought it was not a big deal and nothing would happen.

However, when he finally returned home, he looked around the place but didn‘t see Elissa.He asked the servant curiously, "Where is my mother? She should be playing cards with the other wealthy ladies at home at this time."

The servant faltered, "Mrs.Lester...She was arrested by the police two days ago."

"Does my dad know about this?" Ritchie was flabbergasted.

"Didn‘t he stop them?"

The servant didn‘t know the details and simply said, "Sir, you will have to ask Mr.Lester yourself.I don‘t have the answers."
