The policeman took out his handcuffs and went to Savannah. "Miss Schultz, please."
Savannah froze at the handcuffs.
"What do you mean? Why should she be handcuffed? Please note that she is not a criminal now!" Kevin's face changed.
The police looked at Mrs. Yontz awkwardly. In principle, Miss Schultz was now a suspect, not a criminal, and she didn't have to be handcuffed.
But when Mrs. Yontz went to the police station, she asked them to take Miss Schultz away in handcuffs.
Mrs. Yontz was the daughter of old Sterling, and the Sterling group was financially strong and monopolized many industries in LA. What's more, Mrs. Yontz's mother was from the Cavendish family. Every merchant, as well as the politician, would treat the Sterling with respect.
Even the police chief would stop to smile and nod politely to old Sterling when they met. How could he refuse old Sterling's daughter?
"Please cooperate, Miss Schultz." The police said.
Susan looked at Savannah with a scornful laugh. She would shame Savannah before the entire world.
If Savannah was taken out of the building in handcuffs by the police, she would be a criminal known to all.
Savannah knew the Sterling was powerful in LA, but she didn't expect Susan could even interfere in legal procedures.
"No! You can't do that!" Kevin stood in front of Savannah.
"You must implement the law impartially, officer!" Susan gave the two policemen a cold look.
The two police officers immediately came forward. One held Kevin back, and another one walked to Savannah. He was about to grab her wrist and handcuff her when the elevator door over the entrance opened.
Several tall and strong men came in from the elevator.
Everyone paused by footsteps approaching, turned, and looked back.
The leader was a tall gentleman. He looked very handsome in a well-cut black suit, and his eyes of ice dwelled freezingly on the police's hand on Savannah's wrist.
Savannah stared at the man blankly.
Dylan came…
Behind him followed Garwood and two bodyguards.
The female employees present all blushed imperceptibly, lowered their heads, and whispered.
The two policemen recognized the man coming and changed their faces. They let Kevin and Savannah go and rushed up to greet the man.
"Mr. Sterling."
Susan's expression changed too when she saw her brother coming. She knew it wouldn't be a good thing.
"Dylan, why are you here?" She hurried forward to Dylan.
Dylan glanced coldly at Susan. Their father had given Savannah a month's time, and she couldn't even wait one more day.
As soon as a month arrived, she immediately called the police to arrest Savannah.
"Mistake?" Susan cried violently, "we have a witness! It was not a mistake! That's enough, officer, just get this woman back!"
"Who dares?" Dylan bellowed, and his cold words froze everyone.
The two policemen immediately understood; the person Mrs. Yontz wanted to arrest was the one Mr. Sterling wanted to protect.
They, of course, dared not offend Mr. Sterling, so they stepped aside.
"You bastard! Go to get her! Now!" Susan stamped up in a rage when she saw the two policemen do nothing.
Though the two policemen did not dare to disobey Mr. Sterling, they slowly walked to him and said in a low voice,
"Sir, what Miss Schultz had done was exposed on the Internet, and it's very serious now. Even if she had not been accused by Mrs. Yontz, we would still take her back for questioning; otherwise, we can't explain to the public..."
"I will deal with the public. This matter is our internal affair in the Sterling, and I will take care of it." Dylan said coldly.
Since Dylan put it this way, the two policemen did not dare to say more. They nodded and left.
Susan was so angry when she saw the police leave. She stepped up to Dylan in a great range.
"Dylan! Do you think Savannah will be okay if you get rid of the police? Don't forget, dad said, you have just one month. If you failed to find any evidence in her mouth, I could send her to the police! What do you mean now? Dad won't let you shelter her like this! Let's go home tomorrow and have it out in front of dad!"
Savannah was transfixed.
The Sterling did not want to spare her.
She lived her life in calmness this month because old Sterling had given a month's grace.
Then she looked at Dylan. So he had been gone for a month because he was looking for evidence?
So he didn't distrust her?
But why did he date Abby?
Yeah, Abby was the witness, and it was the best way to start with Abby.
So, he made use of his sex appeal for the evidence this month?
"Tomorrow? Let's go back now. I will tell dad exactly what happened."
With that, Dylan held Savannah's hand and made their way to the elevator.
"Mrs. Yontz, would you like to share a car to go back to the Sterling's house?" asked Garwood, ironically.
Susan was stunned. She thought that Dylan would avoid going back to see their father, but unexpectedly he volunteered to go back to explain.
Has any evidence that could prove the little bitch's innocence been found?
Impossible. How could Savannah be innocent? Abby saw it too!
Well, she would like to see what Dylan was going to tell dad!
Dylan would annoy dad if he insisted on harboring Savannah, and according to dad's temper, he would withdraw Dylan's power in the Sterling group.
By then, Devin and her husband, Henley, would be able to take control of the whole group!
"No! I'll go in my car! I'd like to see what Dylan's going to say to cover up for that bitch!" Susan smiled caustically and walked into another elevator downstairs.
Looking at the back of Savannah, who was taken away by Dylan, Kevin's eyes clouded, but he was relieved.
Anyway, Savannah should be fine with Dylan's help.
Turning around, Kevin faced JK's employees, who were in blank astonishment.
"Don't let this go further than these four walls," said Kevin, raising his voice.
