Chapter 880Chapter 880 Proof
Right then, Ingrid suddenly stood up and said, “How is that not possible? Jared’s girlfriend is the
daughter of Horington’s richest man! He’s rich.”
“Richest man in Horington?” Steve smirked mockingly and added, “Even the richest man in Horington
is nothing compared to the Bailey family! What more to say when he’s just a son-in-law?”
Despite what he heard, Jared just kept mum as he watched how Steve and Herman embarrassed
themselves.
Hannah, however, was extremely anxious. She slapped Gary across the face and scolded, “Hey, you
old thing! Why are you not saying something?”
In response, Gary slowly turned his head toward Jared and asked, “Jared, I’m just going to ask you one
question. Did you borrow that car?”
Seeing that Jared had nodded in response, Gary lowered his head in satisfaction and kept quiet.
Soon, a few men in uniforms arrived in the room. Herman immediately pointed at Jared and ordered,
“That’s him! He’s the car thief. Arrest him!”
When the men wanted to apprehend Jared, Hanah, Ingrid, and the rest stopped them.
Hannah shouted anxiously at them, “You’re not allowed to arrest someone without any proof!”
novelbinAt the same time, Ingrid whipped out her phone and recorded the whole incident. “You guys are
abusing your power! I’m going to record you guys arresting someone without evidence!”Although Hannah and the rest were worried sick, Jared remained calm and collected as he stared at
Steve and Herman.
“Steve, you need evidence to make an arrest! How can you be so sure that Jared is a car thief?” Sarah
got up and questioned.
“Fine! You guys want evidence, right? I’ll call the Baileys now. If they say their car has been stolen,
then Jared has got to be a car thief!” Steve uttered and whipped out his phone to call someone.
Upon seeing that Steve was really calling someone to verify it, Hannah’s anxiousness grew. She was
both worried and scared to find out if Jared had stolen the car. Jared might be in big trouble! He had
only gotten out of jail a few months ago. If he were to be sent back inside, surely he’ll get sentenced to
more than three years!
Steve kept his phone away after he’d hung up the call.
“Steve, have you found out about the truth? Did Jared really steal the car?” Hannah asked hurriedly.
“Chill! I’ve only called the manager at the headquarters in Jadeborough. He’ll call Mr. Bailey to verify it.
I don’t have Mr. Bailey’s contact.” With that, Steve sat down and lighted up a cigarette. At that moment,
he was over the moon because he had the same thoughts as Herman. Who would’ve thought
something like this could happen? If I can locate Mr. Bailey’s stolen car, surely he’ll feel grateful to us.
With personal gains in mind, Steve wasn’t interested in Jared at all. So what if he’s my nephew?
“Why go through all the trouble? I can call Mr. Bailey directly.” Jared took out his phone.
“You have Mr. Bailey’s personal contact?” In shock, Steve stared at Jared in disbelief.“Dad, he’s just bluffing. Do you think Mr. Bailey would make friends with an ex-convict? I bet he’s just
trying to deceive us. Let him call whoever he wants.” Herman didn’t believe a word Jared said.
Instead of arguing, Jared called Samuel right away.
Right then, Samuel was in Walter’s courtyard. He was having tea with Walter and Theodore as they
waited for Jared to go back to Jadeborough together.
Samuel was trembling in anger when Jared told him about the situation he was in.
“What’s the matter, Grandpa?” Tristan asked as he was concerned.
