“What are you doing? Yesterday you slapped your sister and knocked her out, and there are still slap marks on her face, and you’re actually hitting her now?”
Mrs. Alston couldn’t stand it and came up to defend Sloane, exasperated, “It was Adriana’s fault in the first place.”
“Adri is right and wrong, it’s not up to you to decide? What, in Waverly you The Alston family is still bigger than the police? How dare you bring someone to beat Adriana in public?”
Harlee couldn’t stand it anymore and stood up and said, “I’ve already called the police to deal with the evidence, I’ll see whether Sloane goes to jail or Peter goes to jail!”
The best way to deal with the matter is to let the police handle it.
“Since the police have been called, why are you still coming over here?”
Sloane covered his cheek and pointed across to Old Mr. Soto and said, “One man’s job is to beat Adriana is what this lady means, and I’m willing to do it …”
“Get out!”
Peter backhandedly slapped Sloane in the face again, “Get out!”
Roaring, bloodshot eyes glared at Sloane’s back and chilled his heart. The cheek that was punched was even more painful from the fire.
Her tears came out indisputably, and she jumped in anger, “Peter, am I your sister, do not move to beat me, I do not have a face!”
Mrs. Alston also knew the seriousness of the matter this time and understood that Peter was shielding Sloane by doing so.
Then he said, “All right, you hurry out.”
Mrs. Alston gave a look towards Hank, who walked up to Sloane with a slight jowl and dragged her out with him.
“Let go of me, don’t move me, let go of me.”
Sloane kept struggling, but was still dragged out by Hank.
The elders in the hall all looked serious and the atmosphere was saber-rattling.
“Even if the police will punish you, it doesn’t mean that the Soto family will sit back and do nothing. adriana is the girl I got back from Quintin, I can’t wait to hold her in my heart, how dare you touch her. tell me, what do you The Alston family plan to do?”
“What do you think would be appropriate?”
Leroy skimmed indifferently to Peter, asking his opinion.
Peter stepped forward, “This matter has something to do with me, it is my incompetence in the administration. I am willing to accept the punishment.”
He is naturally willing.
After all, Adriana was the woman he wanted to spoil to his bones, and now she was surprisingly beaten by her own intake.
“As for the people who did it to A… Adriana yesterday, I’ve already abolished their hands.”
Peter habitually wanted to address a ‘Adriana’, but knew it was inappropriate for this occasion and would reveal the message in his heart.
So immediately changed the name.
“Later, I will hand them over to the police station for processing.” Peter added.
“I heard that those people are FE masters, FE members are hard to find with a thousand dollars, you will spare them to waste? Hmph, you don’t think I’m an old man who is easy to fool, do you? Let me tell you, although I am old, my eyes are not blind.”
Old Mr. Soto blew his beard and glared, not to mention how angry he was.
“If Old Mr. Soto doesn’t believe me, I’ll send someone to bring them over.”
He waved his hand and beckoned to one of the guards, who immediately turned around and left.
“Hehehe, brother Guokun, so this matter is much misunderstanding, why not …”
Old Mr. Alston wanted to reconcile, but as soon as the words came out, Old Mr. Soto poured cold water on him, “I will get to the bottom of this matter. One of you, The Alston family, must come forward and I will pay for this matter, otherwise, I will make you The Alston family look good!
“Grandpa, take it easy.”
Harlee knew that Old Mr. Soto doted on Adriana, and had no idea that Old Mr. Soto actually doted on Adriana so much.
I saw his face red with anger and immediately smoothed his back, “The FE is Peter and only follows Peter’s orders. if Peter hadn’t tacitly approved, how could those people have done it to Adri?”
He is directly telling everyone that the mastermind behind this matter is Peter.
“Peter, not that Uncle said you, this is something you did wrong.”
Brenden, who had been silent, looked at Peter with some anger, “Although Ms. Hale fought with you for the custody of the two children, you shouldn’t use such underhanded means to deal with a small woman.”
This statement is clearly directed at the Soto family.
Peter does not deny, “Uncle has a point, Peter’s fault, willing to take the blame.”
“Heh, easy for you to say, how do you plan to take it on?”
Quintin asked at once.
At this moment, the housekeeper Ben hurried in, “Master, there are many police officers coming to the door, coming to arrest people.”
Old Mr. Alston’s face sank and he stood up with a frown, “Let them in.”
Since they are from the police what else can be said, how can they be turned away?
Of course you have to invite in.
As his words fell, more than a dozen police officers in navy blue uniforms walked in from outside the living room.
The leader of the conversation flashed his police card, “Hello, we are Waverly Public. Security Bureau, we received a report of a public beating, please cooperate with the investigation.”
“Heh heh heh.”
Old Mr. Alston smiled and greeted him, “Officer, I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding here, you …”
“Hm, what misunderstanding?”
Old Mr. Soto was agitated and reached out to slap the table angrily, “Your grandson sent someone to beat up my granddaughter, there is hard evidence, what misunderstanding?”
Just now, Old Mr. Alston said that he wanted to turn a bad situation into a good one, but he didn’t expect Old Mr. Soto would not appreciate it at all.
“Who hit the man?”
The police officer asked.
Peter stepped forward, “Officer, it’s me.”
“It’s you, isn’t it? All right then, please come back to the police station with us to make a statement.”
“Good.”
Peter doesn’t resist and is quite cooperative.
“What are you guys doing? He’s my son, and this has nothing to do with him. It was all me, my idea.”
How could Mrs. Alston witness her son being taken away by the police men?
That is the meat of her heart, naturally can not see Peter suffer a little bit of aggravation.
She lunged forward to block it, but Peter pushed her aside and said in a cold voice, “Go back!”
The cold words and the stern gaze shocked Mrs. Alston, she hesitated for a moment, thinking that Peter had his own way in mind, so she did not dare to say anything.
So, in full view of the crowd, Peter was taken away by the police men.
But in the face of the people of The Alston family, Peter was not handcuffed.
Peter was caught and Old Mr. Soto smiled smugly, “Old thing, the battle between us has just begun. Hmph!”
With a cold grunt, he said to Harlee, “Let’s go.”
Harlee gave a slight jaw and left with the old man.
“All disperse, the old man is tired and wants to rest.”
Ben, who had followed Old Mr. Alston around for many years, was good at reading people’s minds and spoke to the crowd.
The rest of The Alston family left one by one, but Brenden stayed behind.
In the large living room, only three people remained.
Ben bowed toward Old Mr. Alston and backed out.
