Chapter 235
Daly and Susan were both hoping Maja could find a solution.
Leo was hiding behind her, looking quite ridiculous.
The neighbors were still gossiping and Daly felt extremely embarrassed.
Due to the house incident last time, the neighbors had a bad impression of him. He knew he was in the
wrong, so he didn’t dare to argue with
them.
Even if the house was going to be demolished, they would have to wait for the government to act. In
the meantime, they still had to live here.
A few guys started to ridicule Leo when they saw how cowardly he was
“You’re such a wuss, I don’t know how you dared to start this.”
Leo didn’t speak, but he heard Maja coldly say, “If you’re not going to explain, I’m leaving. They’re
obviously here for you, they shouldn’t hurt your parents. I wished you’d leamed your lesson by now.”
Leo grabbed her arm, too embarrassed and cowardly to leave.
Maja took a deep breath, freed her arm and turned to leave.
“Wait for me!”
Leo hurried after her, “I’m your cousin. Are you really going to let them beat me to death?”
“Leo, if you don’t want to get beaten to death today, you need to explain. Right now, they just want an
explanation. If the cops come to smest you. even if your parents sell the house, they won’t be able to
help you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a few cops came over from a distance. Without saying a word, they
handcuffed Leo.
Leo turned pale and couldn’t walk due to the fear All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Dad, Mom, save me. I really don’t want to go to jail. Maja, I’m your cousin, you have to help me.”
Maja was stunned. She didn’t expect the cops to arrive so quickly.
Susan tearfully grabbed her arm, “You know Mr. Raymond, right? He must know some big shots. Could
you please help us beg for mercy? If Lea goes to jail, his life is over.”
Maja felt annoyed, but seeing the people crying before her she said, “I’ll give it a try
Leo was taken away by the cops. The guys who were following him obviously wanted to beat him up.
Leo was screaming out of fear. Daly could only follow them, pleading with them not to hit Leo
But when Leo got in the police car, Daly was helpless and anxiously watched.
Susan kept begging Maja, sobbing and wiping her tears.
“I can’t live without Leo.”
Maja felt obliged to help. Although she didn’t like Leo, she remembered how Daly and Susan had
helped her.
“Stop crying. I’ll give it a try. Leo hit a higher-up’s son, they must have communicated with the police.
Your money won’t help, they probably don’t
need it.”
Susan knew this but was still crying out of desperation
Maja inevitably had to see lan again.
The so-called higher-up would not compromise because of her, but because of fan.
However, thinking about what happened last night, she felt extremely embarrassed.
She hesitated for a few minutes and then called Mr. James.
Mr. James was familiar with lan’s schedule as he often accompanied several higher-ups.
When he heard she wanted to see him, he told her where lan was.
It was a high-end restaurant that only served a few customers a day, located in the chef’s private villa.
Maja rushed over immediately, but she didn’t know the higher ups, so she had to call lan again.
lan was sitting with Fannie, who was behaving very well in front of the higher-ups.
When lan’s phone rang, Fannie thought he would get up to answer it.
But he just glanced at the phone, hung up, and put it face down on the table.
