Chapter 780

Tate sneered as his other rich friends had told him that those nearby surveillance cameras had broken
down. As for the witnesses, they were all his friends who went street racing with him, so they would
certainly side with him, which was why he wasn’t worried at all.

At this moment, the police officer said again, “Moreover, we’ll do a blood test on the driver. If it’s drunk
driving, the punishment will be harsher. You might even go to jail! Miss, I hope that you’ll think it through
before admitting it.”

Upon hearing that, Joanna was flabbergasted. Then, she quickly responded, “Sir, I wasn’t the driver. I
didn’t drive the car. It was him. He wanted me to take the fall for him. Sir, I really didn’t drive…” she
yelled.

It was her best friend’s birthday today, so she had drunk a lot. If the police pursued the matter, she would
be regarded as drunk driving. By then, she would be thrown behind bars.

Tate’s expression changed in an instant as he hurriedly asked, “Joanna, w-what are you talking about?
Stop spouting nonsense. You don’t have to be afraid of them!”

She waved her hands and shouted, “Sir, I really wasn’t the driver. My friends can testify for me that I
didn’t drive.” As she spoke, she swung her hands at the people on the other side. “Hey, testify for me! I
didn’t drive!”

Those rich kids repeatedly nodded. “Sir, we can testify that she didn’t drive.”

At that instant, he was rooted to the spot. They were actually Joanna’s friends and he knew them
through her. After such an incident happened, naturally, those people would side with her instead of him.

Upon seeing that, Helen rushed over and pointed at Joanna before snarling, “How can you do this to
Tate? Don’t you remember what you said? You said that you were the driver, but now you’re changing
your statement. Why are you so shameless?”



Joanna rebuked, “I wasn’t the driver, so why should I take the blame? You want me to go to jail? I’m
telling you—no way!”



Feeling anxious, Helen responded, “You want my nephew to be imprisoned, then? Don’t forget that he
borrowed the car tonight for you!”

Through clenched teeth, Joanna said, “He did it willingly! Moreover, I told him to head home after dinner,
but he insisted on coming here for street racing. How can you blame me for this?”

Helen snarled, “Bullsh*t! If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t have borrowed the car from us! It’s because you
forced him to borrow the car that such a thing happened!”

Joanna retorted, “Then, did he make love to me because I forced him to?”

Helen was lost for words at that instant. With her face red with anger, she couldn’t utter a word.

On the other hand, the police officer’s expression had already darkened when he waved his hand and
interrupted, “Alright, stop talking. Bring all of them back and investigate the case thoroughly.”

The other officers hurriedly took action and captured Tate and Joanna.

A flustered Tate struggled out of the officers’ grip and cried anxiously, “Aunt Helen! Aunt Helen! Help me!
Help…”

Helen said in a fretful manner, “What are you doing? He’s still young. Just let me personally bring him to
the police station!”

Upon seeing that the police officers were coming at him, Tate pushed one of them away and turned in an
attempt to flee. Right after Tate began to run, Matthew landed a kick on his chest, causing him to fall to



the ground. The officers then reached him and pinned him down.

Helen growled, “Matthew, what are you doing?”

In a solemn voice, Matthew replied, “Mom, he’s now resisting arrest and attacking the police. If he really
flees, he’d be tried in court in the future. Are you helping him or destroying him?”

She was lost for words. Just like what Matthew had said, if Tate managed to flee, the matter would
become worse. By then, Tate couldn’t possibly bear the punishment of multiple charges.
