When Zephyr and Cordelia arrived at the police station, they saw Fredric and Neil sitting on each end of the bench
in the lobby. Both of them looked horrible, while Trinity, who was in the center, looked at them with a troubled
expression.
When she looked up and saw Cordelia, it was like she saw a savior and hurried over to hold her hand.
“What happened?” Zephyr was bewildered as he glared at Fredric. “You, a lawyer, fought?”
The corners of Fredric’s lips twitched, and he turned away. It was rather embarrassing when he was controlled by
alcohol.
Usually, he was the one who bailed people out of the police station. Now? Zephyr was here with other lawyers to
bail him out.
The Hamertons’ legal team was efficient and completed the procedures shortly. The lawyers tried to hold their
laugh back when they saw Fredric and went to inform Zephyr before they left the police station.
Cordelia found the whole matter unbelievable as well and ran over to check Neil’s face after comforting Trinity.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Phew, thank goodness!” She breathed in relief. “Face is fine, doesn’t affect the schedule!”
Neil frowned with a twisted expression.
“You aren’t concerned if your cousin is injured anywhere but my face?”
“Yeap!” Cordelia chuckled. “Your face is more precious. The company has signed many contracts for you, and we
would make a loss if you were absent!
“Besides, I know Fredric. He wouldn’t actually hurt you!”
“Hmph!”
Neil snorted and turned away after side-eyeing Fredric.
Zephyr certainly would not take his friend’s side at such a critical juncture, so he stepped forward and rolled his
eyes at Fredric.
In addition to his frustration due to Cordelia’s pregnancy, Fredric just happened to be the venting outlet.
“Come on, leave! Stop embarrassing yourself here!” Zephyr glared at him.
Fredric looked at him in disbelief.
That was just Cordelia’s cousin? Zephyr had been so hostile to the man in the past, but now…
Cordelia held Zephyr’s hand with a chuckle. “Darling, don’t be so mad.”
She then called the PR department. “There could be paparazzi crowding the police station later. Get people here to
hold them back. No matter what you do, suppress all the news on Neil and Trinity these few days. Nothing regarding
the two of them is allowed to go viral, understand?”
Zephyr was worried about the same thing.
After all, Neil was significant in the entertainment industry. If news about him fighting a lawyer in the bar broke out,
the negative impact would plunge Imperial Media’s share price.
Janine was in Chaiseland, so if Imperial Media was doomed under his care… his mother would travel all these miles
back to kill him!
Fortunately, his wife acted so speedily and was excellent in tackling the issues. He did not even have to worry about
it.
Zephyr patted Cordelia’s head. The affection in his eyes could not even be hidden.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNeil snorted, unwilling to accept such a public display of affection, especially when he was still furious.
He was doted on and indulged growing up. Even when he came to the entertainment industry, his career was
smooth sailing. His enormous number of fans had already spoiled him.
In spite of it, he had been beaten for the first time in a bar last night.
The provocation of the PDA and Neil’s fury that had yet to dissipate made him grumpy and cranky.
“Go be lovey-dovey back home if that’s what you want! Can’t you see there are single bachelors here?”
Zephyr and Cordelia were stunned.
“That’s right.” Fredric’s deep and unfeeling voice rang as well. “You’ve got to be considerate of others, at least?
“You’re in public, and this is a police station. What’s becoming of you to behave like this!?”
“Exactly! If Uncle Rowan were here, he would definitely prick you with his needles!”
The two men chorused each other like they were in the same boat.
The Hamerton husband and wife were shocked and gaped at them.
What, were they wrong for bailing them out? They should have let them stay there a few days and let the paparazzi
take photos of them!
