Trial Of The Senses - Chapter 479 Half Truth
“Mr. Jasper.” Henry stood outside the door.
“Hmm.” Jasper nodded, “Guard the door and don’t let Aimee out.”
“Yes, sir.”
When Jasper went downstairs, he saw Bradley come in in a hurry. “Uncle Bradley, call the family doctor and ask him to bring…”
“There is a bad news, sir.” Bradley interrupted Jasper, “There are policemen outside the gate. They suspect that we are illegally detaining citizens and want to come in and search with the search warrant!”
“Police?” Jasper’s emotionless face darkened. It would take about five hours for Henry to take Aimee back from the countryside. It would take him at most six or seven hours to get back from the film set where Ashley filmed. In other words, Aimee only stayed at the Zhan family for about one or two hours.
How could the news be leaked in such a short time? Moreover, how could the police take the initiative to interfere in the matter of Aimee? It would be fine if it was an ordinary organization, but now men from the state institution stood at the gate. Even though SS Group had a wide range of contacts and had a great influence in the industry, he was not as powerful as to bend the law.
“Is there anyone else besides the police?”
“There is a man with a familiar face. He attended your wedding, but I don’t remember his name in. There are also two men in plain clothes with cameras in their hands. They don’t look like policemen in plain clothes or reporters. ” Bradley recalled what he saw at the gate.
“Reporters?” Jasper looked back at the direction of the study and his face darkened. Police search, journalists report, once this crime is proved to be true, he and SS Group will be in the center of the storm.
And that man… He had attended his wedding with Ashley and even called the police to search his house. There was only one person in Jasper’s heart who could go against him.
“Okay, I see. Invite them in ten minutes.” Then Jasper turned around and went upstairs.
“Dad?” A room at the left end of the second floor was opened. Coming out of the room, Nelson looked at Jasper curiously and asked, “Why are you at home? Aren’t you going to work today? ”
“I have something to deal with at home, so I come back.” Jasper walked up to her son and took his hand back to the practicing room. “There will be a few strangers at home later. Stay in the room and don’t come out, okay?”
“Who are they?” As Nelson walked into the room, he didn’t forget his curiosity.
“Several policemen.” Jasper didn’t lie to his son.
“Why did the police come to our house?” Nelson wasn’t too surprised. There were many politicians came to the Zhan family before, and they would visit each other on festivals. In his eyes, the difference between a policeman and his father was that they worked for different organizations.
“For business.” Jasper explained briefly and stopped talking with Nelson. “I’m going to work. Stay here and don’t come out, okay?”
“Oh, I see.” Nelson said obediently, but the curiosity and joy in his eyes did not decrease at all.
Jasper was
ry say that he wouldn’t let Nelson appear.
“I didn’t expect that you have a child at home. Is it a relative’s child?” Aimee asked the man in front of her.
Jasper’s face became more and more gloomy. He had always carefully protected Nelson, and would never allow anyone to scheme on him. But now, such a woman like Aimee saw him. Even if Aimee took a look at Nelson, Jasper would think it was a humiliation to Nelson.
“It’s none of your business.” Jasper said stiffly.
Judging from the man’s voice, she could tell that he was in a bad mood. Knowing that it was time for her to say something, Aimee obediently went downstairs with Jasper.
The two sat opposite each other in the public living room on the first floor, and the servants came attentively to put a cup of tea in front of the two people. The waiting time was not long. About two or three minutes later, a burst of messy footsteps came into the door from afar.
As soon as the door was opened, many men in police uniform came in, followed by the sound of “click” taking photos, accompanied by flashlight. Being flashed by the flashlight, Aimee covered her eyes subconsciously.
The man in the lead was holding a document in his hand. When he entered the room and was about to light it up, he suddenly stopped when he saw Aimee sitting on the sofa, because the person they were looking for was in front of them.
Jasper stood up calmly. “I just heard from the housekeeper that you suspected that I was under house arrest illegally. Who are you looking for? I always abide by the law. There may be some misunderstanding between us. Each door is not locked. You can search it. ”
“We are looking for Aimee…”
“Is Aimee okay?” The two journalists whispered to each other.
The sound of photographing finally stopped. At the same time, Aimee removed her hand from her eyes and looked at the person in front of her. She suddenly opened her eyes wide, because in the group of people, Francis was standing in the middle and looking in the direction of her.
