“You can’t get rid of this.”

This was what David said before hanging up the phone. Sara didn’t want to refute anything and hung up the phone straight away.

Actually, the first thought that went through her mind when she heard that Hazel was missing was that this was definitely related to Rorey.

And now, she was absolutely certain that Hazel’s disappearance had been caused by Rorey.

It was Rorey who had kidnapped Hazel and then framed her. In this way, David and even the Ji would come looking for trouble with her.

Effectively, it was a way to kill two birds with one stone.

However, Rorey’s wishes did not come true.

She, Sara, was no fool, so how could she not see through his thoughts?

Hazel’s disappearance had nothing to do with her, but now that Rorey had set her up, she feared she would be implicated.

Sara curved her lips helplessly.

Shouldn’t she go to the temple and ask for a talisman to protect herself from the villain?

That night, when Sara and Leo were having dinner, Sasha suddenly ran to them in fright.

“Sara, Leo, the police are here.”

The police?

Sara and Leo looked at each other, then put down their chopsticks and hurried outside to see what was going on.

As soon as they came out of the dining room, they saw almost ten policemen standing in the living room.

The policeman in the lead saw them, saluted them, and showed his police badge. “Sorry to interrupt. I’m Marvin, from the city’s Criminal Investigation Squad. I wanted to ask Miss Tang a few questions about Hazel’s disappearance.”

They were here to investigate Hazel’s disappearance.

Leo’s expression was cold as he looked at Marvin.

“Didn’t your leader tell you who should be investigated and who should not?”.

Marvin chuckled, “You’re Mr. Leo, aren’t you?”

Leo rarely appeared in public, so very few people knew him. However, this policeman recognized him.

Leo frowned slightly and looked at Marvin more curiously.

Sara was also very surprised.

It made sense that the head of the Public Safety Bureau would know Leo, but it was strange that a policeman would also know Leo.

Marvin continued, “Mr. Leo, I know who you are, but I hope you can cooperate with the police. We just want to ask your wife for information.”

Damn, even he knew it was Leo’s wife.

Where had this cop come from?

Sara turned around and saw Leo’s face shadowed.

He looked at them with a deep, sharp stare.

No one knew what he was thinking now.

However, she thought, he should be as surprised as she was.

Marvin asked about her and Hazel’s relationship.

When he finished asking, he smiled and said, “Thank you for your cooperation.”

Sara replied with a smile, “You’re welcome. It’s what every citizen should do.”

Marvin gave her a slight nod and turned to look at Leo. He wore a big smile and said very clearly, “Mr. Leo, Mr. Lu wanted to tell you that it is not too late to back out or else you will have to deal with the consequences.”

Hearing this, Sara’s eyes widened.

Mr. Lu?

Leo’s father?

Could it be that this cop and Leo’s father knew each other?

No wonder he knew Leo and knew she was Leo’s wife.

Leo glared at Marvin.

Marvin smiled warmly and looked at him calmly, without the slightest fear.

Leo slowly curved his lips with a disdainful look.

“Then please go back and tell him I won’t be back.”

Marvin raised his eyebrows and stood up, “Okay, we’re leaving.”

Marvin and the other policemen quickly left. The room quieted instantly, as if they had never been here before.

Sara remembered that Mr. Lu had asked Marvin to relay the message to Leo. Her eyebrows furrowed.

She thought for a moment and then asked, “Leo, could it be that Hazel’s disappearance has something to do with your father?”

Hearing this, Leo turned to look at her with a serious gesture.

“It has nothing to do with him.”

Sara frowned even more.

If that was so, why did it turn out that the policeman who had come to investigate knew her father?

“He just took the opportunity to give me a warning,” Leo said indifferently.

A warning?

Sara understood immediately, “He wanted to get me in trouble, didn’t he?”

Leo nodded, “Well, no matter who kidnapped Hazel, he’ll frame you and blame it on you.”

Sara was dumbfounded.

“He’s treating the police like fools?”

Hearing this, Leo couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Half jokingly and half seriously, he said, “He doesn’t just treat the police like fools, he treats everyone like fools.”

Well, that… seemed true.

Leo’s father gave off a sense of sanctimony, but with the power of the Lu Family, he had the capital to be sanctimonious.

No, no, this was not the time to think about it.

“So, what should we do?” Sara asked.

Leo smiled and said, “Okay. In Benin, I think my influence is greater than my father’s.”

Sara nodded, “That’s true.”

Then he stretched, “Anyway, I’m relieved you’re here with me.”

“Thank you for trusting me so much.” Leo smiled and touched her head.

“Of course.” Sara lifted her chin and blinked playfully, “I don’t believe anyone but you.”

Leo smiled brightly, and his beautiful black eyes sparkled with affection.

By the end of the year, all sorts of award ceremonies had begun, and the Media Department had begun its busy work.

The entertainment industry seemed to be a ruthless place.

Hazel had yet to be found, but this issue seemed to have fallen by the wayside. Few people mentioned it.

Sara sighed with excitement. It turned out that the entertainment industry was like a cold machine. It kept moving without feeling anything.

Sara sent someone to follow up on this matter and post new information on the official company blog when the police had new findings.

There were still quite a few internet users commenting. Some even wondered if Hazel was hiding to make the news and then redeem her declining popularity.

Truth be told, Sara felt it made sense when she saw this comment. However, she remembered that she had received a phone call from David the other day. His anxious and angry tone did not seem to be fake.

On the other hand, there was no need for Hazel to attract attention in this way. She could use other methods.

In any case, before Hazel could be found, everything seemed somewhat confused.

After the police came to question her that day, there was no follow-up. It seemed that the police did not suspect her.

She thought Leo must have done something, otherwise how could they let her go so quickly?
