Chapter 79
"Hey, I can't just agree to that! This is a huge deal, I can't just say yes without thinking twice! If you're okay with asking me for this favor, then I'll go. But if you don't want my help, then why should I bother?" "Fine! Just go if you want!"
"Alright then, I'll let your little wifey know!"
As he said that, he switched the phone to speaker mode, and asked the person on the other end, "Ms. Bishop, where's your family?"
"My mom is in the hospital... as for Silver Fox...Uhm... if you don't want to help, I'll have no choice but to tell him about this. But... I really don't want him to know I was brought to the police station. It's so embarrassing..."
"Sebastian, did you hear that? She's afraid of embarrassing you because she cares about you!" Putnam turned off the speaker.
Sebastian raised an eyebrow, "I honestly don't care if she does or not!"
"Fine, do you want to save her or not?"
Annoyed, Sebastian glared at him before responding, "Fine, just save her!"
"Alright, done deal! Remember this favor though, you'll have to help me out next time too!"
Stephanie had no idea that Putnam was with Sebastian.
She only knows that Putnam went silent for a long time, until she thought he wouldn't help her at all. His tone suddenly changed, he spoke gently, "Alright, be patient and wait for me, I will leave right now to pick you up!"
After hanging up, Putnam turned to Sebastian and asked, "Wanna come?"
"Not interested."
"You don't have much work anyway. Just come with me to check it out, you can just stay in the car if you want. Aren't you curious about who brought her to the police station?"
He was a bit curious.
"No thanks."
"Sebastian, stop pretending in front of me. Although I don't know how you suddenly got a fiancée, I could tell from the way you defended her yesterday by grabbing my sister's throat, that you really do care about her ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
You don't know anything!
It was just because Stephanie saved his life, and she's so young. He thought it would be a shame if she died.
Especially since her involvement in all this mess was due to knowing him; if she died because of it, it would be too unfair.
In the end, Sebastian was dragged by Putnam to check out the situation but stayed in the car.
It was a hot day, Putnam wore an expensive custom tailored suit, looking very impressive as he walked into the police station.
Coincidentally, Maddie's parents arrived first and were arguing with the police.
"I don't care, my lovely daughter has been hurt, you have to bring the culprit to justice! Jail time is too easy for them!"
Maddie cried aggressively in front of her parents, "Mom, it hurts... my whole body hurts."
On the other side, Gillian's parents had also arrived and were questioning Gillian about what had happened.
As Gillian was speaking, she heard Maddie's words and lost her cool.
"Maddie, stop talking nonsense! Stephanie never hit you, so how come your whole body is hurting? Did you not even bother preparing a better lie? Should we call a coroner to examine you?"
"You little brat, who do you think you are? Coroners examine dead bodies! Do you even know what you're saying?"
Maddie's parents were apparently quite wealthy, Gillian's parents noticed that they had arrived in a luxury car, and felt intimidated.
So they
bowed their heads
and apologized, "We're sorry,
Sorry, Our child is young a
