Chapter 174 The Police Is Coming

"Leave it to me. You can sleep now. Otherwise, you will go to work with black rims on your face
tomorrow."

Even though Kent mocked her, Melinda didn't know why she felt reassured. Maybe it was because she
trusted him.

"Sorry to bother you again," Melinda said after hesitating. She knew that Kent didn't like to hear this,
but she couldn't help but say that.

Melinda was afraid of making trouble for others, but she couldn't handle everything well, which made
her upset.

Hearing her polite tone, Kent lost his temper immediately. "If you think it's bothering, just wait for the
matter to be solved and invite me to dinner. Please spare your spare time and invite me to express
your boundless gratitude."

Even though he was angry, he just jeered at her. Perhaps it was because of his tone that could make
Melinda feel relaxed.

He brought up the topic about last time when he changed the topic. Since the editing department
forbade them to go back home to work, it made them felt that a capitalist exploited the employees.

It was a normal thing to work overtime until eight or nine o'clock. In the past, when they went home,
they would never feel that the workload was this heavy. Later, someone in the department sometimes
measured the quantity of tasks. Since the plan came out, the tasks given by the superiors was 1.5
times than before.

With the faint salary of the past and more work, everyone would complain incessantly. Victor spoke for
the superiors that in fact, the normal work should be 1.25 times. He said that they always had so much



free time in the past.

As a result, the dinner date made by Melinda and Kent was delayed for almost a month.

"I will treat you the dinner this time even if I will get my salary deducted," Hearing that, Kent burst into
laughter and said, "Don't do that! If my wife knows that, she will scold me! You have only a little salary,
but I still wanted to have the meal and deduct your salary. How could you be so unreasonable, Kent?"

Kent imitated his wife's tone. Hearing that, Melinda couldn't help laughing, and her intense mood
immediately eased a lot, She knew that Kent was helping her to relax. She couldn't help saying thanks
to him in her heart.

Kent was a talkative man. He kept chatting with Melinda. Then he raised his head and looked at the
clock in the study. He found that the minute hand had reached number 6, so he urged her, "Well, you
should have confidence in the security of your own community. Go to bed early."

"Okay." The sleepiness swept over her again, leaving her a night light. Soon Melinda fell asleep.

It was not a good start for Emily to take revenge on Melinda. She didn't expect that there was someone
protecting her.

"One person is not enough, how about a group? Melinda, you can't be so lucky every time,"

Emily talked to herself. She had been in the entertainment industry for so many years. She only knew a
few upper class, but she knew a lot of rogues, especially those who would do anything once she gave
money to them.

All these people had an agent to be contacted. Emily gave the agency fee to the group and the agency
introduced her a group of people, who were tall and strong with fierce muscles. Children could be
scared to cry when they walked out.



There were five people in total, and they were fierce. Even the employer, Emily, was a little scared by
their imposing manner, but she was satisfied with it.

"Her car is confined tomorrow. She'll definitely take this road. All you have to do is to wait here. You can
do whatever you want to her. We can discuss the price."

Emily found a photo of Melinda from nowhere. It was taken by the seaside and she smiled against the
waves, like a little fairy. Two of the five of them had their eyes wide open.

"Since you are a beauty, I will give you a 20% discount." The leader of these men seemed to be easy-
going, but in fact, he was somewhat greedy. In the eyes of these people, Melinda was a stunner.

Emily was satisfied with the result but she was a little unhappy. She thought that Melinda was really a
slut. How seductive she was.

A group of people agreed on the price. Just then, Emily's doorbell rang. Her eyes darkened. She
pushed the five people into a guest room at the first time.

"I'm sorry, you have to stay here for a while." She was good at speaking and didn't dare to say anything
too harsh. The group of people didn't mind at all, knowing that she was a public figure and wanted to
have a good image.

"Who is it?" Emily shouted at the door. Several people at the door looked at each other and one of
them shouted, "Police."

Emily opened the door. As expected, several policemen were standing at the door with long faces.
Emily leaned against the door frame, showing no attitude to step way.

"Oh, you are policemen. What are you doing here? Are you here to ask for water?"

It was Emily's arrogant attitude that made the police's face darken.



Emily said with sarcasm.

"You are suspected of threatening someone. Please explain it after you get to the police."

At last, the calmer senior police officer said. His eyes were as sharp as eagle's. it seemed that he could
see a person's nature.

"Do you find the wrong person?"

Emily chuckled, but she was a little nervous. It was impossible for the police to come to her without any
reason. There must be something that she did not know.

"The famous star, Emily Bai, could it be anyone else?" the man asked. With a look of arrogance on her
face, Emily said, "I admit that I are a big star, but the threat is not true. Why should I go to the police?"

"Cut the crap! Sir, she didn't give a damn! She has to go to the police station for such a bad attitude.
Take her away!"

There was a young man coming to her. Seeing that the female star was still arrogant and refused to
cooperate, so he became very angry. He beckoned to his colleagues and pressed them against her,
ignoring Emily's resistance.

"Aren't you a superstar? If you want people to come here to watch you, just don't cooperate with us."
The policeman was a slippery man. Seeing that Emily did not cooperate, he threatened directly. As
expected, Emily became quiet at once.

These people's voices were not low, and when the five men heard it, their faces turned pale. They were
not unfamiliar with the police.

Now that Emily was taken away by the policemen, the cooperation would be discussed again.



"I don't think we should get involved in this matter anymore. That woman has been put into the police
station. We are just released few days ago," one of them said in fear.

Since the police had already inserted the case into the police station, they had to think about it no
matter how much money they could get. Since they had been warned when they had been released
from the police station, they wouldn't be released so easily if they got in again.

"The deposit has been paid, and we just got the money without doing anything. The woman dare not
tell the police about us. Let's go."

"That's right. She had offended those cops just now. We should be careful even if she has nothing to
do."

The five men left the scene one by one. They didn't want to be involved at this moment and soon they
scattered. They were afraid that the police would come back to find any evidence.

Since Emily was taken to the police station, she was not honest. She kept talking and was very
arrogant. "If you have anything to say, just tell my lawyer. I'm very busy.

I'm going to call my agent and ask my lawyer to come here. You guys, wait to receive my lawyer's
letters."

The policemen had seen many kinds of people before, but it was the first time that they had met
someone so arrogant and stupid.

Indeed, in the eyes of these people, Emily's behavior was stupid.

She was still shouting, and finally seemed tired and sat silently by the side. Seeing this, the police said,
"I don't need the transparent tape I just found."



Hearing his words, Emily stared at the man and didn't expect that he wanted to seal her mouth like
that. When she was about to say something, the man pulled out a transparent tape and threatened her.

Suddenly, she quieted down.

It was not police at all. It was the bandits. She didn't know that these were assigned by someone on
purpose.

When Kent went to the police station to look for them, he reminded them that the girl was very
arrogant, and then he offered advice kindly. What Emily did totally echoed Kent's guess. The police
believed most of what he said that she threatened people.

The lights were on, but Emily's heart was filled with panic for no reason. Melinda was as nervous as
Emily, who was just off duty.

She was a little afraid of driving alone, trembling when entering the parking lot. She was afraid of being
attacked, so she decided to take a bus for a few days.

She was careful when she walked home. She wished that she could have clairaudience that she could
notice as long as there was any noise. She also hoped that she could have the same speed as The
Flash so that she could get home instantly without anything to worry about.

Melinda came back home in great fear, with cold sweat all over her back.

She arrived safely. Putting down her bag, Melinda splashed her face with cold water in the bathroom to
make herself a little sober. She could not help but recall that Kent had said he would deal with this
matter.

After returning to the living room, Melinda called Kent.



"Kent, I'm home." Melinda called Kent to inform him of her safety. Kent glanced at the woman sitting
inside and said to Melinda gently.

"I've said that I would take care of it. It's good that you get home." Kent was a man of action. Melinda
had made the call last night and he soon figured out a solution.

He was not as domineering as Jonas, but he had his own way.

"Let me buy you some midnight snack," Melinda said as she reminded of her promise, but was refused
by Kent.

"I'm busy now. Maybe next time," Kent said. Melinda didn't insist and hung up the phone after a few
words.
