In the banquet hall, after getting rid of Samantha, Freya felt relieved and pulled Joanne to the buffet to find something to eat.
Joanne accompanied Freya patiently. When the latter was full, she asked, "You and Samantha have never seen each other before. Why don't you like her at first sight?"
She knew Freya too well. As soon as Freya spoke, Joanne knew that she did not like Samantha.
Joanne was very curious about the reason.
"Eee-" Freya made a sound of disgust, and the dislike almost overflowed on her face. "I've never seen anyone as artificial as Samantha. What's wrong with Boss Hayes? How can he appreciate this kind of woman?"
Joanne had just taken a sip of water and almost choked on Freya's words.
She held the glass of water and thought for a moment. Finally, she gave Freya a reassuring look. "Wesley should just be using Samantha. He is not interested in women like Samantha."
Freya asked doubtfully, "Are you sure?"
"Yes," Joanne said as she nodded, "I'm sure!"
Freya thought about it and finally crossed herself. "I hope that Wesley will not let you down."
Joanne could not help laughing. At this time, the banquet hall suddenly became lively.
She looked toward the center of the noise and saw several young men in police uniforms walking in.
"What's going on?" Freya shook the glass in her hand and asked calmly, "Is there a murder here?"
Joanne used to work at the police station, and those cases in which she got involved were generally murder cases. Over time, Freya developed a subconscious idea that if the police appeared, a murder must have occurred.
"It's not a murder." Joanne shook her head and motioned for Freya to look at the police. "They are from the Economic Criminal Investigation Department, and they are not responsible for murders. So, there are economic criminals here, instead of murderers."
Freya became excited as soon as she heard that. She held Joanne's hand with great interest and said, "Let's go and see who provoked the police of the Economic Criminal Investigation Department."
"Hey, Freya!" Being pulled by Freya, Joanne said while running, "Be careful. Don't forget that you are pregnant?"
Obviously, Freya was not bothered by this at all. She tried to catch up with the police as if she had not heard Joanne's words, and the latter could only follow her.
Joanne had never thought that the police of the Economic Criminal Investigation Department would come and arrest Rowdy, and that Yuna was also in the banquet hall.
Her attention was immediately drawn to Yuna and she stared at her without blinking.
Yuna had changed.
She was wearing a black-and-white dress, and she also had her hair styled, which highlighted her exquisite facial features. She was incredibly amazing, but with a sense of coldness and alienation. She had an aura of indifference and aloofness.
"Was Yuna like this when she stayed with Rowdy?"
"This could not be the real Yuna?"
In this aspect, Wesley and Yuna were a perfect match.
Today, for once, he was not dressed entirely in black. Wesley was wearing a formal suit. He looked less aggressive and more charming than before. If it weren't for Samantha, there would be plenty of beauties hitting on him.
Freya also saw Yuna and was about to go up to her. They had tried their best to find out whether Dr. Roberts was on Yuna's side or not. Now that Yuna was here, they could just ask her about it.
Joanne reacted quickly and grabbed Freya, saying, "The man surrounded by the police is Rowdy."
She knew what Freya was about to do.
However, Rowdy was also here. If Yuna really went back to work undercover around him, Rowdy would definitely be suspicious of Yuna when she heard Freya's questions.
At that time, Yuna would be in danger. Joanne did not want to see that happen.
"That man is Rowdy?" Freya was stunned for a moment, and then she said in a sarcastic tone, "Why are the police of the Economic Criminal Investigation Department here to investigate Rowdy? It should be the police responsible for murders who should come and arrest him!"
Joanne suddenly remembered that Brian had said that Rowdy would be busy enough with his own affairs soon.
That made sense.
Joanne held Freya and said, "No matter who comes to get Rowdy, you should stay away from him."
Joanne did not know what was going on, but she did not forget about the kidnapping of Iris and Aunt Helen.
She was very sure that if Rowdy went crazy, he would not care that Freya was pregnant. If something bad happened to Freya, they would not be able to bear the consequences.
At this time, several bodyguards ran over. The captain whispered to Joanne, "Madam, Mr. Lambert asked you and Miss Norris to stay here. If there is anything, he will deal with it."
Joanne nodded. "Got it." She had no intention of going over.
As soon as Joanne finished speaking, she saw Yuna running over to Wesley. After Yuna said something, Wesley looked increasingly gloomy instead of being happy to reunite with her.
Not far away, Rowdy was talking to his subordinate named Milo.
While listening, Milo kept looking at Yuna with a strange look in his eyes.
Joanne vaguely guessed that what Rowdy was telling Milo was related to Yuna.
She wondered why Milo looked at Yuna so vigilantly.
Or had Rowdy never really believed in Yuna?
If that was the case, Joanne was even more sure of her guess that Yuna must be hiding something from them, and it was also the reason why Yuna returned to Rowdy.
If Yuna really regarded Wesley as her enemy, she had many ways to win Rowdy's trust, and Rowdy would not be so cautious and suspicious of her.
While Joanne was thinking about it, she saw Milo walk toward Yuna.
From her perspective, she could see clearly what Milo was holding against Yuna.
It seemed like... a gun!
In an instant, Joanne felt as if she had been drenched by a bucket of icy water in winter, and she felt chills all over her body.
Freya immediately noticed Joanne's abnormal expression and touched Joanne with her hand. "Joanne, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
Joanne did not want Freya to worry, so she shook her head and kept staring at Yuna. She saw Yuna return to Rowdy and being held in his arms. Yuna did not resist at all, as if she was used to Rowdy's embrace.
"Well, someone is going to be jealous."
Joanne looked at Wesley. Sure enough, Wesley's face clouded. If it were June, Wesley would probably be able to summon a rainstorm.
She knew that Wesley still cared about Yuna. The words that he would have nothing to do with Yuna burst from him in an angry rush!
Before Rowdy let go of Yuna, Wesley suddenly walked toward the entrance of the banquet hall. Brian walked a few steps after him but did not follow him out in the end. Instead, he came to Joanne.
Only Samantha persisted in chasing after Wesley. She called him "Brother Wesley" while lifting her dress and going after him.
Seeing this, Joanne could not help sighing.
Brian raised his eyebrows. "Why did you sigh?"
Joanne looked at Samantha, who was running and said, "Samantha likes Wesley, but it is destined to be an unrequited love. I hope that she won't be so persistent that it will become a tragedy."
Moreover, if she was too persistent, it was very likely that even if she lost everything she had and she would have just as Rosalyn did, she could not get the result she wanted.
"Samantha's business has nothing to do with us." Brian took Joanne's hand. "Let's go home."
Joanne looked at Yuna worriedly and asked, "What about Yuna?"
"We can't do anything about her," Brian said, "for she is now working for Rowdy."
Brian knew what Joanne was thinking. If possible, she wanted to take Yuna away.
However, this place was swarming with Rowdy's men. They could not be sure if Yuna was willing to go with them. If they acted rashly, Joanne and Freya would be taking great risks.
Joanne compressed her lips. "Okay, let's go back."
If Yuna believed in Wesley, she would go back sooner or later. It was really not a good time now.
Chris also came over and then left with Freya.
The policeman said to Rowdy, "Mr. Kent, it's about time."
Rowdy looked very calm, but there was obviously a touch of gloominess in his eyes and his voice. "Well, let's go."
He had to admit that Wesley got him into trouble at a very opportune moment.
At present, he still needed to make use of the Scott Group, so he attended this charity dinner party.
The big shots in the business world of Arlington, as well as all the major domestic media, were right here. Under such circumstances, because of his position as the CEO of the Scott Group, he could not pull out his gun to resist. Instead, he could only leave obediently with the police and then be drowned by unfavorable public opinion.
That was a very smart move by Wesley.
However, Wesley was too naive. Without the Scott Group, he still had other ways to launder his money!
Yuna watched the police take Rowdy away. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she did not in the end.
When he saw this, Rowdy thought that she was worried, so he turned around and comforted her. "I'll be back soon. Don't worry."
Yuna nodded and said, "I'll take good care of Emily. Don't worry."
From the beginning to the end, this sentence came from Yuna's heart.
After Rowdy was taken away by the police, Rosalyn was surrounded by reporters. Various questions were fired at her. Even if Rosalyn had ample experience in dealing with reporters, she could not attend to them all for a while.
Rosalyn had thought that by relying on Rowdy, she could win a round. After all, from all aspects, Rowdy was not much worse than Brian.
However, before she could do anything, Rowdy was taken away by the police, and she became the most pitiful female companion in history.
She could not accept it!
After getting rid of the reporters, Rosalyn went to Milo and asked him what was going on.
Milo was discussing with Yuna how to help Rowdy, and he directly said to Rosalyn, "Get lost!"
