?Chapter 931:


    Without another word, the car suddenly shot forward, speeding down the empty street like a streak of dark purple lightning.


    Not one to be left behind, Jacob quickly floored the elerator, trying to keep up.


    The two cars raced after each other until they reached the dock. Jacob jumped out of his car, grabbing Jonathan by the cor. “I told you to stay away from her!”


    Jonathan met his gaze with calm eyes. “You know I would never hurt her.”


    “Jacob!” Corrine quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and rushed to them. “Let’s go home.”


    Jacob red at Jonathan for a moment and then gave a cold snort before letting him go.


    Inside the car, Jacob gripped the steering wheel tightly. He stayed silent for a long time, deep in thought, before finally speaking. “Miss Hond, you should keep your distance from him from now on.”


    “Alright.” Corrine nodded.


    Meanwhile, the police rounded up the thugs and followed the trail to the Burgess family.


    With a search warrant in hand, they took Corey away without any hesitation.


    “What are you doing?” Sonia, her hair a mess, rushed forward in panic, trying to pull them back. “What’s the reason for taking him?”


    A police officer looked at her without expression. “We got a tip that Corey Burgess hired someone tomit murder. Cooperate, or we’ll arrest you too for obstruction.”


    Sonia’s face went pale at that.


    She nced quickly at Corey, realizing their cover had been blown because of those foolish thugs.


    ?????????????? ?????????????????? ????????: ?????????ν??????﹒?????


    If they took Corey away, he might nevere back.


    “Hiring someone for murder? The Burgess family has always been honest and kind. How could we possibly do such a thing? This is a setup!” Sonia protested. “Unless you have proof, you can’t take my husband!”


    The officer’s voice turned cold. “You’re obstructing justice. We have every right to arrest you too!”


    At that moment, Sonia didn’t care about her usual poise. She acted like a wild animal. “Go ahead, take me too! Do you think the Burgess family is weak? Let me tell you something. My daughter is close to Andromache, a member of the Hopkins family on the Independent Continent! If you dare touch my husband, I’ll have my daughter make sure you lose your badges by tomorrow!”


    The officer sneered and said, “We’ll see about that.”


    Ignoring Sonia’s outburst, they dragged Corey away.


    As they took him, Corey yelled, “Call Leah right now!”


    Sonia’s eyes widened in realization. With shaking hands, she rushed to grab the phone and dial Leah’s number.
