Built His Empire Then Watched It Burn When He Cheated novel Chapter 613

She looked back at the two girls behind her. They both nodded at the same time.

"Officer Parsons said he would check the situation and then tell us the result."

"Mrs. Fullbuster, I didn't hear any of the things you said."

Anneliese almost laughed. This really showed how tightly they were sticking together.

She sneered and took out her phone. She tapped the screen twice and turned the volume all the way up. Erick's arrogant voice rang out.

"Alright. No settlement. We'll handle it strictly. Ms. Malone, don't worry. We'll lock her up for three days and three nights. I'll also arrange a proper cell to teach her a lesson."

Erick stared at Anneliese in shock. He never expected her to have a recording.

She looked young, yet she was calculating.

He had always been the one setting traps for others. This time, he got caught.

Howard's eyes turned sharp as he looked at him. Erick's face went pale.

He stood there, not knowing what to say.

Anneliese already knew before she came that Gianna was behind this. That was why she prepared evidence in advance. She started recording the moment she got out of the car at the police station. It was just in case, and she didn't expect to use it so fast.

Jonathan gave Anneliese a look of approval. He then turned his gaze to Howard.

"Chief Campbell, Officer Parsons' way of handling cases is impressive. He is very skilled at this. Do you want me to help check his bank account for you?"

Erick's legs went weak at once.

Howard felt embarrassed. He shot Erick a cold look and spoke in a serious tone.

"Mr. Fullbuster, rest assured. I'll check this right away. If there is anyone corrupt in the team, I'll deal with them strictly."

He knew that if Jonathan investigated this himself, the situation would only blow up and become even more embarrassing.

Jonathan nodded.

Just then, Zion hurried over.

"Mr. Fullbuster, take a look at this."

He walked up and handed his phone to Jonathan.

Jonathan only glanced at it twice before lifting his eyes and handing the phone to Steven.

"Take a look."

Steven took it and saw two photos and one video.

In the photos, Anahi was wearing a tight dress. There was only a small bandage on her forehead. She was laughing and talking with several men and women in a bar. The video showed Anahi on a stage, swinging her hair and twisting her waist around a pole.

This matter was connected to Gianna, but she wouldn't admit it. They also had no solid proof.

For now, this was all they could do.

If Howard later found evidence that Erick had taken bribes from Gianna, or if Erick confessed, Gianna might still be held accountable.

Jonathan nodded. "Let's go."

Anneliese quickly supported Jessica and walked outside with her. Gianna stared at Jessica's back with unwilling eyes.

"Steven, let's go too."

She linked her arm around Steven's. Steven pulled his arm away from her.

Gianna's heart sank a little.

Steven didn't answer her. He turned to Howard and said, "Handle this however you should. There's no need to worry about my family."

Howard looked at the three of them and gave orders to another officer.

"Officer Walker, this is yours. Get everything clear."

Nicholas Walker acknowledged and said to the three of them, "You still can't leave. Please move over and make detailed statements."
