Winnie frowned and said as she looked at Cyril, “Are you sure?”

If Cyril could really get Alger out, it wasn’t like Winnie couldn’t ask Cyril for help.

Cyril nodded and said confidently, “Yes.”

Winnie hesitated for a while, then looked at Cyril and said, “What’s your condition? You wouldn’t get Alger out unconditionally, would you?”

Cyril raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “My condition is very simple. I’m going to a family banquet soon and there will be a lot of dukes and earls present. I hope that you can be my dance partner.”

Winnie said with dissatisfaction in her mind, “But you know I’m already married to Alger!”

“I know, but I just want you to attend the banquet with me. This has nothing to do with Alger. Plus, I don’t care about those matters either.” Cyril said while looking like he didn’t care at all.

Winnie didn’t know how to answer him.

Madam Bella on the side then said, “In fact, Winnie, aren’t you responsible for the company’s business right now? You should also go out there and expand your network.

“As for Alger, I think you should just let him be locked up…”

Winnie ignored Madam Bella and only frowned while looking to the side, hesitating.

Seeing that, Cyril said again, “Besides, I think that we should get Alger out as soon as we can if possible. After all, I’m worried that Alger would be beaten up by someone.”

Hearing that, Winnie turned pale and looked worried, which made Cyril extremely jealous.

In fact, Winnie had slowly developed a different feeling for Alger during this period of time and she even planned to stay with Alger in the future. But now, Alger was arrested.

Besides, Winnie didn’t want to see Alger get hurt.

So, after hesitating for a while, Winnie nodded and said as she looked at Cyril, “Then, promise me you’ll get Alger out as soon as possible!”

Hearing this, Cyril smiled and replied, “Of course.”

Madam Bella also showed a smile on her face, then she said, “Alright, the food is getting cool. Let’s eat!”

As for Lisana, she directly asked someone to go to the hotel where Alger was at that time and find the security footage of the main hall after knowing about the incident.

After all, such an incident would definitely be recorded by the surveillance cameras.

In the end, they were people from the Youssie Corporation. After knowing about this, the boss of that hotel immediately gave the footage to Lisana’s subordinates without any hesitation.

After watching the footage, Lisana also knew the cause of the incident and how it ended. So, she went to see the Director of the Local Police Department, Mr. Hall

Lisana didn’t think that such a justifiable defense could be made up into something else. After all, the footage was here.

So, when Lisana found Mr. Hall, she directly told him why she was here.

“Mr. Hall, I believe that you’ve also understood what exactly happened in this incident after watching this. So, I trust that you’ll surely be able to give us a reasonable explanation.”

The Youssie Corporation was one of the largest corporations here. Normally, no one would have the guts to offend them, let alone what Alger did was actually legal.

If they still arrested Alger in such a situation, they would have indeed gone a bit too far.

So, after understanding what happened, Mr. Hall looked very pale.

He looked at Lisana and said, “I have no idea what exactly is going on, and I didn’t even know such an incident happened, but I can assure you that if my people really did something wrong, I’ll definitely deal with it.

“In a while, I’ll certainly give you an explanation.”

Lisana then nodded in satisfaction, then left.

Wallace didn’t know that this incident had already alarmed his top superior, Mr. Hall. At the moment, he was only waiting for tomorrow so he could get 500,000 USD.

This made Wallace feel very complacent.

But then, he got a call from Mr. Hall.

“Come to my office!”

Mr. Hall said these words briefly and fiercely before hanging up directly.

This made Wallace very confused, because he could hear anger in Mr. Hall’s tone.

When he came to the office, Wallace looked at Mr. Hall flatteringly and said, “Mr. Hall, what’s wrong?”

Mr. Hall looked at Wallace with a sullen face and said, “I heard that you went out to handle a case?”

Wallace was first startled, then nodded and replied, “Yes, I got a report, saying that some people illegally crippled someone!”

“Really? Not just one person?” Mr. Hall asked with a deep voice.

Looking at Mr. Hall’s eyes, Wallace’s heart skipped a beat. When he was about to speak again, he saw Mr. Hall get up directly and say, “Take off your police uniform!”

“Why?” Wallace looked at Mr. Hall in fear. He couldn’t understand why things would turn out like this.

“Why? Don’t you know what exactly you did in your mind? Do you think you can abuse your power for personal benefits after putting on a police uniform?” Mr. Hall said loudly.

“Men!”

Two people immediately came in. Seeing this scene, Wallace was even more panicked in his mind.

He only heard Mr. Hall say, “Lock him up!”

This was also the first time these two people had seen Mr. Hall’s angry look, so they dared not to hesitate and quickly locked Wallace up.

Wallace finally realized that what he did was exposed, so he said in panic, “Mr. Hall, please listen to my explanation. I had no choice. Don’t you know about my family’s situation…”

“Shut up! This isn’t an excuse for you to do such a thing!” Mr. Hall scolded him fiercely.

As for Alger and Perchings, they saw Wallace, who was very arrogant just then, being locked up here with an extremely messy look.

“Haha, what a surprise. You’re also locked up like us?” Alger said in a mocking tone while looking at Wallace.

This made Wallace feel like he was being slapped by someone. He was very embarrassed, so he ignored what Alger said.

Alger said with ridicule, “Look at you. People who don’t know would think that you aren’t arrested.”

Perchings also said after him, “That’s right. We’re the same now. Do you still think you’re superior to us?”

What the two of them said made Wallace feel humiliated, so he said with a deep voice, “Haha, even though I’m locked up here, I can still get out. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll just leave this job!

“But you’re different. You provoked someone powerful out there.. Do you still think you can leave this place?”
