Chapter 70
At that moment, she felt that all the languages in the world were useless and so was her painting brush.
She exclaimed in her heart, “This man is everything I find beautiful. He is perfect-
to me.’
Maybe because Melanie had been staring at Roderick for too long, Roderick put down the pile of paper and looked at her.
Their eyes met and Melanie was completely unprepared!
Roderick said, holding her hand and helping her sit up, “Mela, have you had enough sleep?”
Melanie asked, “Where are we? Have we arrived there?”
Roderick said, “Yes. You were sleeping soundly so I didn’t want to wake you up.”
Hearing Roderick’s words, Melanie gave up the idea of blaming him for not waking her up in time.
Melanie said in embarrassment, “Let’s get into it. Is the police already off duty?”
Hearing this, Roderick chuckled and stayed silent.
Richard, who was driving the car, couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Robertson, Mr. Lambert is here. The police will have to come back even if they’re off duty!”
Melanie felt speechless.
Melanie was stunned for a while and didn’t know what to say.
She didn’t expect that the name Lambert would still be so powerful outside Beloris. She wondered if Richard was just bragging.
Hearing this, Roderick snorted and glanced at Richard. Then he got out of the car
first.
Richard hurriedly shrank back a little and didn’t dare to say another word. Melanie. shook her head silently and got out of the car too.
As expected, as soon as she got out of the car, she saw a middle–aged man talking respectfully to Roderick with a bright smile.
Roderick still looked very calm as if the middle–aged man was his subordinate!
Hearing Roderick call the middle–aged man Mr. Lee, Melanie felt relieved.
No matter what, she was just an ordinary person. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Of course, like most people, she thought things would be easier if she knew someone working for the bureaus.
Seeing that Roderick seemed to be acquainted with a senior officer of the police station, Angie felt much relieved.
While Melanie was thinking about it silently, the middle–aged man looked at her with a gentle look.
The middle–aged man said, “Ms. Robertson, I’m so sorry that you have to come here! Ms. Thomas is inside. You can take her back now!”
Melanie was a little surprised. “What?”
She thought, ‘What’s going on? I just got out of the car and haven’t even said a word and he told me that I could take Angie home!
‘Does it mean that Angie didn’t do anything wrong? No way. If she didn’t commit a crime, why did the police ask me to come here?
‘Or, the Lambert family is so powerful that even a car accident can be easily solved.
The middle–aged man said, “Yes, Ms. Robertson, you can go inside and sign a few papers. And then you can take Ms. Thomas home!”
Melanie came to her senses and didn’t forget to thank him. “Great, thank you!”
Roderick walked straight over to her and held her hand. He said softly, “Everything’s fine now.”
Now Melanie was completely immune to his hand. She just let him hold her hand and followed him into the police station.
Melanie asked, “What happened to Angie and Michael?”
“Nothing,” Roderick suddenly laughed and said thoughtfully, “And maybe it’s a good thing!”
