Chapter 699

The situation made everyone in the room dumbfounded as they didn’t expect her to actually call the
police.

Moreover, they had arrived so quickly!

“Officer, this is a family matter!” Demi said anxiously. “My father is the boss of Cunningham
Pharmaceuticals, which belongs to our family! That secretary is just one of our employees. Is this really
necessary?”

The police chief glanced at her. “So what if she’s your employee? Does that make her less than human?
So just because she is an employee, it’s okay for you to insult her all you want? We are all equal. What
right do you have to insult her? If you guys can insult your employees whenever you like just because
you’re their boss, what do we need the law for?”

Demi was rendered speechless.

The police chief was not happy with this family and waved his hand directly. “Take him away! And cuff
him!”

James was handcuffed and taken away in a police car.

The others in the house panicked.

Helen sat on the ground with a thud and started wailing. “Oh, what should we do now? What was this
for? James only said a few words! Was it necessary to take him away? What on earth is happening?
What are we going to do now?”

Demi had a look of hatred on her face and she gritted her teeth. “Sasha, you sure are vicious! To send
your own father to jail! Mom, let’s go make a scene at the company! This time, even if they beat us to



death, she has to give us an explanation! Let’s see if she has the guts to have the security guards beat
us to death in public!”



Liam nodded repeatedly. “That’s right, Mom! There’s no need to be afraid of them! What’s so great about
them? Just because she’s rich, she thinks she can do as she pleases!”

The two of them helped Helen up and rushed directly to the company.

But once they reached the company, they were stopped by the security guards.

Pete personally led the security team to keep watch. He then glanced at Liam and said, “So I heard you
called the police just now? Liam, I thought that we had settled our scores after beating you up once, but
now it seems that once isn’t enough! You should take a good rest. After your injuries have healed, I will
send you to the hospital again!”

Liam was so scared he took a step back.

Demi stuck her nose into the air. “Rivers, who are you trying to scare? I came to find Sasha today, so get
out of my way! Unless you beat us to death, I will go upstairs today no matter what!”

Pete laughed. “I’m sorry but you guys arrived too late. President Cunningham and Mr. Larson went out to
make a deal. They are not in the company right now!”

Of course, Demi didn’t believe him. “Who the hell are you trying to fool? We were here just now and
didn’t hear anyone mention anything about a deal. Are you telling me that she has gone on a business
trip in such a short amount of time?”

Pete smiled. “President Cunningham just happened to have something to deal with! If you don’t believe
me, you can go upstairs and check. Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you. President Cunningham and Mr.



Larson forgot to bring their phones with them, and the phones are with me. Oh dear, now you can’t even
contact them. Whatever shall we do?”

As he said this, Pete showed them two phones. The phones were indeed Matthew and Sasha’s.

Demi was dumbfounded. She could tell that Matthew and Sasha were hiding from them on purpose.

The longer they hid, the longer James had to suffer.

Sasha and Matthew didn’t even have their phones with them, so what could they do?

This time, they really dug a hole for themselves.

“You are lying! There’s no way these are their phones!” Demi continued to deny till the end.

Pete laughed. “If you don’t believe me, you can call them yourself.”

Demi gritted her teeth and took out her phone to call Sasha’s number.

One of the phones in Pete’s hand rang.

Dimi quickly dialed Matthew’s number, and the other phone rang.

This time, they were completely stunned!
