Chapter 78 - 78 78 Carlos's Counterattack
78: Chapter 78 Carlos’s Counterattack 78: Chapter 78 Carlos’s Counterattack In the small garden of the People’s Hospital, Carlos was helping the Old Master sit down.
Although Carlos was accompanying the Old Master, he seemed somewhat distracted.
“Grandpa, shall I go up and check?”
He was not at ease about Emily Parker, that woman would bare her claws in his presence, daring to lock him out, but in front of others, she could easily be bullied; she was a typical example of being aggressive only at home.
“I think you’re afraid of the nurse and Doctor Willow being together, aren’t you?
Do you have feelings for the nurse?”
The Old Master said teasingly, looking at his own grandson.
“Who says I’m afraid.”
Carlos stubbornly denied, unwilling to admit it.
He still hadn’t confessed his matters with Emily Parker.
He could see that the Old Master liked Emily Parker.
But he hadn’t yet fully understood Emily Parker as a person.
Although they were married to Emily Parker, they would divorce within a year, and the Old Master would definitely oppose it if he found out.
“You, just being stubborn.
Today’s matter, frankly, is the nurse’s family affairs, why do you bother so much about it.
You haven’t even told me, what exactly is going on between you and the nurse?
You two just met, didn’t you?”
The Old Master also didn’t know if the two had chatted after adding each other on WeChat.
But from what he knew about his grandson, his grandson was not someone who chats with women.
“Grandpa, it’s a long story.”
Carlos felt somewhat guilty.
Rather than telling the Old Master about the divorce a year later, it might be better to keep it a secret forever.
The Old Master wanted to continue asking, but Carlos’s phone rang.
“Brother Carter, you must help me, I am currently at the police station.”
Carlos picked up the phone, and the voice of Rainny White, with a crying tone, came through.
Carlos lowered his voice,
“Rainny, what happened?
Don’t cry, take it slow and tell me.”
“I don’t know what happened.
I was at the preliminary round for an ambassador selection, and a female contestant helped me.
Later, she had a conflict with other contestants.
In gratitude for her kindness, I helped her hide some things and told a lie.
I didn’t expect this could be considered a crime.”
Rainny White was terrified, crying while speaking.
The Old Master suspiciously glanced at Carlos.
On hearing this, Carlos frowned and quietly comforted Rainny White.
After Emily Parker reported the incident, the police should start investigating the matter.
Emily Parker had produced the surveillance video, and everything was laid bare.
Because Rainny White appeared in the video, she was quickly taken to the police station.
This was her second time at the police station; the previous time Carlos was with her, she was released quickly, but this time, she was there alone and very scared, so she called Carlos again.
“They said if they can’t investigate it clearly, they will notify my school.
Brother Carter, if they notify the school, I might be expelled.
I can’t be expelled, my family hardly managed to support one university student.”
Rainny White was sobbing uncontrollably.
“Rainny, wait for me at the police station, I’m coming right now.”
Thinking of Rainny White being alone and unfamiliar in Capital, Carlos couldn’t be harsh.
He immediately told the Old Master, saying his friend was in trouble and he had to leave first, and asked the Old Master to pass a message to Emily Parker.
The Old Master was so angry that he huffed and puffed.
When Emily Parker arrived, the Old Master was still sulking there.
“Grandpa, why are you alone?”
Emily Parker didn’t see Carlos and felt a bit disappointed.
“That kid had something to come up first, are you feeling aggrieved by something, girl?
If you are aggrieved, tell grandpa, grandpa will definitely help you.”
“Grandpa, I’m fine.”
Emily Parker smiled bitterly.
“Working as a nurse is both dirty and tiring, if you don’t want to do it, then don’t.
If you still want to work, why doesn’t grandpa just start a company for you?
You can even just run it for fun.”
Old Master saw that Emily Parker was putting on a brave smile, and he cursed Carlos in his heart again.
Such a good nurse, and he didn’t cherish her, instead getting entangled with other women.
“Grandpa, I’ve made plans.
My mom once had a small clinic, I plan to work there in the future.”
After clarifying things with Adam Willow, Emily Parker had already intended to leave People’s Hospital, and this time she was given a perfect opportunity.
She planned to visit the small clinic in a few days.
While Emily Parker and Old Master chatted, Carlos had already arrived at the police station.
Before entering the police station, Carlos made a call to his close friend Faye Manor.
Faye Manor: “What are you saying?
The Carter Clan is no longer sponsoring the Capital’s ambassador pageant?
If you don’t sponsor, our Manor Clan won’t sponsor either.
What a lousy competition, even daring to eliminate my goddess,”
Faye Manor immediately announced that the Carter and Manor Clans would terminate their sponsorship of this Capital ambassador selection.
Once this news spread, other sponsors also canceled their sponsorships, and needless to say, this selection of the Capital’s ambassador ended in failure.
“If she won’t participate, then nobody will.”
Carlos sneered.
When Carlos entered the police station, he saw a policewoman taking a statement from Rainny White, whose eyes were red, looking just like a harmless little rabbit.
“Officer, I’m a friend of Rainny White, I’m here to bail her out.”
When Rainny White heard Carlos’s voice, she quickly raised her head,
“Brother Carter, trouble for you again.”
“Rainny, it’s nothing, I’ve already asked the police.
They just wanted you to come cooperate with the investigation.”
Carlos had not seen the video segment involving Emily Parker, and the police had not disclosed it, but Carlos believed that Rainny White did not have the guts to harm anyone, at most, she was instigated by Sister Sophie Parker to tell some lies.
Upon hearing this, Rainny White’s face was filled with gratitude and she threw herself into Carlos’s arms, tears immediately coming down.
“Brother Carter, I didn’t know things would get this serious, I just wanted to help Sister Sophie Parker.”
Carlos patted Rainny White’s shoulder, comforting her,
“I’ll get you bailed out first.”
As Carlos was about to proceed with the bail for Rainny White, he saw a door of an office nearby open.
A middle-aged man and the director of the police station came out.
“Deputy Minister Parker, rest assured, the case has been dismissed.
This case won’t affect your daughter in any way.”
Hearing Sophie Parker’s name, Carlos stopped in his tracks.
“Director King, I’m really sorry about this.
Because of a bit of family matter, it has troubled your station.
I will definitely educate my two daughters properly when I get back.”
The middle-aged man was polite and courteous.
“From my side, there’s nothing much, but I heard that this competition has been badly affected because of this incident.
The organizers have just announced the cancellation of this competition.”
Hearing the competition was canceled, the man known as Deputy Minister Parker was somewhat surprised, then he laughed again,
“It’s all my fault for not guiding my daughters properly, I’ve been too busy with work, not having the time to teach them.
Especially my elder daughter, Emily Parker, who has been difficult since she was young and really gives me a headache.”
He was the father of Emily Parker and Sophie Parker.
Carlos turned back to look at the man, who bore some resemblance to Sophie Parker, but not to Emily Parker, whom must resemble her biological mother.
Carlos frowned.
Father Parker was here to dismiss the case.
By the side, Rainny White listened, her eyes filled with a bit of envy.
That one, is he Sister Sophie Parker’s father?
Looks like, he must be a high-ranking government official.
No wonder Sister Sophie Parker said she could handle this situation from the beginning.
Having a rich and powerful father must be really nice…
What do you think?
