Doris swallowed nervously and answered the phone in fear.
"Well, Nancy, I am suffering from morning sickness. As much as I would like to help you because of your wound on your shoulder, I can't pick up the babies for you these days. How about asking Charles to pick them up? Or maybe Hiram can do it. After all, isn't he Charles' bodyguard? As his bodyguard, it's absolutely part of his obligations to pick up his boss' children..." Even before Nancy could say a word, Doris had already given her an excuse.
Nancy was stunned. Was she the same Doris she knew? Didn't she use to like her children very much and would do these things for them without hesitation?
What a fickle woman she had become!
What could have happened for her to change so quickly? Was it something the two kids did? What made her so scared of them all of a sudden?
"I haven't told you yet what I'm going to say next, but you already began to rant that you wouldn't pick up the kids..." replied Nancy in exasperation and continued,
"Oh, I'm calling you not because I want you to pick up the kids." "Then what is it?" Hearing that, Doris felt secretly relieved.
"I do
all to Nancy, but he was not allowed to. The police regarded him as the suspect. As soon as he finished speaking, the police took his phone and said, "Well, you've already said a lot. Now you can begin to explain exactly what you have done yesterday!"
"Sir, I'm a good man and a good businessman. I have nothing to hide and have no problem explaining what happened. The woman I was with is my girlfriend. I have two children with her. You can investigate this if you don't believe me!" Charles said sincerely.
"Well, I'll give you a record first, and then you can find a witness to prove your relationship with the woman in your car yesterday. But from our point of view, the state of your so-called girlfriend yesterday was very unusual. Because of this, we naturally have a reason to suspect you. To clear the misunderstanding, explain clearly what you had done yesterday. After all, our principle is that we won't wrong any innocent person, but we will never let any bad guy go. So, sit down!"
the policeman scolded, and Charles had no choice but to sit down obediently!
He was, first and foremost, really a good citizen who observed the law!
