However, the police officer only felt disdain for Sarah from the bottom of his heart.
He did not reveal everything out of respect to the Lyons family.
“Shaun, we should cooperate with the police’s investigation,” Old Master Lyons said with a commanding voice, “If she’s innocent, the wedding will be held again a few days later. The Lyons family isn’t short of money to hold another wedding.
Nevertheless, the Lyons family’s future young madam must be a woman with a clean record.”
“Shaun, let’s do as your grandpa says.” Old Madam Lyons nodded in agreement.
They had never liked Sarah anyway. It was Shaun who insisted on marrying her, so they had no choice. Since the police were here and claiming that Sarah had an affair with another man, if it was proven to be true, they would never let Shaun proceed with the marriage.
Even if Shaun were to marry Sarah, they had to investigate everything thoroughly.
After all, it was Shaun’s second marriage. If he got married and divorced again, the Lyons family would really become a joke in the public’s eyes.
Sarah was flustered. She said with reddened eyes,“ Grandpa, I know that you’ve disliked me all long, but it’s Shaunic’s and my wedding today.”
“ I’ve already made my opinions clear. We, the Lyons family, aren’t going back on our word regarding the wedding. We’re just cooperating with the police’s investigation. If you’re innocent, there’ll still be a wedding.” Old Master Lyons was enraged by Sarah.
She made it look as if he was trying to separate her and Shaun.
“Shaun, do as your grandpa says,” Lea said.
“Let’s go.”
The inspector got impatient as well. He had two policemen flank Sarah to bring her out. Then, he turned toward Shaun and said, “President Lyons, maybe you aren’t clear about this yet. That foreign man was murdered by someone. This is a criminal case, and it’s a very serious charge.”
Shaun, who wanted to say something, went silent.
He was a lawyer himself, so he knew a lot about criminal matters. If the police said it was serious,
then it meant that Sarah might be directly involved in the case.
Therefore, it was quite impossible if he wanted to let Sarah stay.
“Sarah, you just need to cooperate with the police’s investigation,” he said softly to Sarah, “I believe that you’re innocent. I’ll bail you out very soon.
We’ll hold our wedding on another day.”
“…Shaunic, I’m innocent. Shaunic, I’ll be waiting for you.”
After hearing his words, Sarah did not feel consoled. Instead, her heart fell into the depths of despair. She felt chilly.
She had never felt as lost or anxious as she was at that moment. She was afraid that Shaun would find out about her and Lucifer.
However, she could not scream or cry out in a panic. Otherwise, she would be exposed further.
She just prayed that the police had not discovered anything.
That way, she could still get married to Shaun after a few days.
The wedding came to an abrupt halt.
Shaun quickly calmed down. He said to the guests, “ Dear guests, I give my deepest apologies. You all came to attend our wedding amid your busy schedules, yet we were met with this incident. I feel very frustrated and regretful as well. Although today’s wedding has to be canceled, you can still stay back and enjoy a meal before leaving.”
Joel, who was sitting at the third table from the back, turned to Cate and said, “Cate, are we staying back to eat?”
“What for? It’s not like we don’t have the money to have a meal elsewhere.”
Cate put down her glass and stood up. After all, she had only come to watch the fun. She was very satisfied after watching the scene just now. It was time for her to leave.
Joel followed Cate immediately when he saw that she was about to leave.
Many guests gradually left as well after they saw someone take the lead.
They could have a meal anywhere, but everyone just wanted to go out and gossip about whether Sarah had cheated on Shaun or not.
When Old Master Lyons saw the guests leaving one by one, he smashed a glass out of anger. “What a disgrace! This is the woman you insist on marrying! ”
“Grandpa, Sarah is being framed by someone else i n this incident. I believe that she’s innocent.”
Shaun tried to defend Sarah with a grim expression. “I knew her from when I was in the mental hospital. I understand Sarah well.”
“No one can completely understand another person, ” Lea suddenly said after she glanced at Mason as a hint. She had previously thought she knew Mason well, but she realized in recent years that she had never really seen through the person who had been sleeping by her side for more than 20 years.
Shaun was her son. He might have followed in her footsteps.
“Your mom is right.” Old Madam Lyons nodded. “ Don’t blame us for canceling the wedding just now. As your elders, we only hope that you can marry a woman with a clean record. The police insisted on taking Sarah away even though there were many guests just now. I reckon they must’ve gotten their hands on something…”
Willie could not help but muster up his courage to say, “Big Brother, I think it’s better to investigate this thoroughly as well. I’ve seen many women, and most of them are horny—”
Shaun shot him an icy glare before he could finish his sentence.
“I’ll bring someone to the police station to bail Sarah out of jail.”
He turned around and left after he spoke.
“Shaun, we’re going with you.” Rodney and Chester followed him.
On the way to the police station, Rodney said angrily, “Those police officers are too much.
Couldn’t they have chosen a better time to investigate this matter? Why did they have to take Sarah away during her wedding? Aren’t they just embarrassing Sarah in public? They don’t have a single bit of consideration for a woman’s reputation. How will the noble families talk about Sarah from now on?”
He turned on his phone. “Look, now everyone on the internet knows that you guys canceled the wedding. Everyone is scolding Sarah.”
“Chester…” Shaun looked at Chester.
“Don’t worry. I’ve already made a call. Someone will remove the trending searches and replace them with some other celebrity scandals.” Chester had a knowing expression.
After arriving at the police station, Superintendent York, who was in charge of the case, met Shaun personally after Shaun flashed his attorney’s license.
“Excuse me, Mr. Lyons. The suspect is still in the middle of an interrogation. We can’ t let you take her away yet,” Superintendent York said with a serious expression.
Shaun frowned and said in a deep voice, “I’ve already submitted the related documents. Why can’t I bail her out?”
“There are just too many parties involved in this case. It’s closely related to the Australian Federal Police as well.”
“Isn’t it just about a foreigner? Why is the Australian Federal Police involved?” Rodney asked unhappily.
“Let me explain it to you. The name of the deceased is Lucifer. We’ve already confirmed with Interpol that the deceased had committed many times in the States and even went to jail several times. After he came to Australia, we found out that there was a fund transfer of 2oo million dollars from Ms. Neeson’s bank account to Lucifer. Lucifer was living in her apartment as well. He frequented gambling places and the bar.
“When the forensics department did an autopsy on Lucifer’s body, they discovered that he got addicted to drugs recently. By investigating his movement in and out of the bar, we were led to a few female customers of the bar. We found out that Lucifer often brought different women back to his apartment, and three of those women are drug addicts as well.”
Shaun’s pupils constricted. “You’re saying that Sarah gave 200 million dollars to Lucifer?”
“ It’s absolutely true. The first 100 million dollars was given more than a month ago, and the other 1oo million dollars was given recently. We’ve confirmed that all the money Lucifer spent was provided by Ms. Neeson. According to information provided by a nearby neighbor, Sarah would go to Lucifer’s apartment at least three times a week. She would often spend six to seven hours there.
