Laurel saw the message at that moment.
She was obviously not calm for a second.
The people from the inspection department came to find her father, and it was certain that they came
with ill intentions.
She said, “There are some temporary matters, the meeting is temporarily canceled, wait for further
notice. Everyone should continue working according to their current plans.”
Laurel left abruptly after saying a few words.
Kaylin also quickly followed in Laurel’s footsteps.
The people in the meeting looked at each other in confusion, completely unaware of what had
happened.
Only Avril smiled wickedly.
She told Kermit and Seth yesterday that something big would happen with Irvin today.
Irvin really had an accident.
Laurel had wanted to win her over before.
It is not certain whether Laurel could maintain her wealth and prosperity.
It was really ridiculous!

Laurel quickly walked toward the chairman’s office.

At this moment, the personnel from the procuratorate are preparing to leave with her father.
Laurel stood directly in front of them and coldly asked, “Where are you taking my dad?”
“Go back and get checked.”
“What crime did my dad commit?”
“Whether or not a crime has been committed is a matter for the court to judge. What we are doing now
is simply bringing back the truth for investigation.”
“What did my father do that requires you to investigate the truth?” She would never let anyone take
Irvin away until she found out the details.
The person inspecting the mechanism’s face clearly showed a slight change in color.
Perhaps they didn’t expect that people would hinder them, given their status.
A person in charge said, “We have received a real-name. report that Irvin is suspected of illegal bribery,
with an amount of 5 million dollars. We now need to take him back and conduct an investigation. This is
an investigation order.”
Laurel looked at the documents in front of her.
She looked at his father.
Irvin said, “Don’t worry, Dad. Everything is fine.”

Laurel pursed her lips.

Almost in that instant, she thought of who was behind the scenes causing mischief.
It was definitely done by Bruno.
Bruno had been involved with people from aristocratic families since his previous life.
The best way for an aristocratic family to deal with someone is to let them commit a legal crime and
face the
consequences of the law.
After all.
The aristocratic family had the ability to do certain things seamlessly.
– Irvin reminded, “You contacted my personal lawyer and then
came to the office to find me.””
“Okay,” Laurel nodded.
Laurel watched helplessly as her father was taken away by the inspectors.
She gritted her teeth.
Laurel kept herself calm.
She returned to her own office, gave a few instructions to Kaylin, and then left the Lambert Group
directly with Mike.
She sat in the car and called her father’s personal lawyer, Jerome. “Mr. Howe, my dad has been taken
away by the authorities. Where are you right now? I will come and pick your
Chapter 245 The Scheme
up to go to the prosecutor’s office immediately.”
“I was at the law firm.”
“Wait for me downstairs in ten minutes.”
“Yes.””
Laurel hung up the phone and asked Mike to drive a little faster.
The car arrived at the destination quickly.

Jerome quickly got in the car and without wasting a second, he said, “I just pulled some strings to find
out, Mr. Lambert is now suspected of engaging in commercial bribery, with a huge amount involved,
and also suspected of tax evasion.”
“What?!” Laurel’s face immediately changed.
“Simply put, Mr. Lambert was reported by someone with their real name. The whistleblower is Konan,
the contractor for Marigold Estates under your company, the Lambert Group. Konan is the person who
fled with a large sum of money some time ago. The bribe recipient that was discovered is the director
of the Department of City Planning. According to the records, the director of the Department of City
Planning is suspected of accepting a bribe of 8 million, with 4 million. coming from Mr. Lambert. This 4
million is partly from a secret agreement reached between Konan and your father when Konan
successfully bid for the contract of Marigold Estates. Mr. Lambert requested Konan to separately
allocate 3.2 million dollars from the contract to bribe the director of the Department of City Planning.
The other portion of the money is related to the purchase of Marigold Estates by the Lambert Group at
a reduced price of 32 million instead of the

original 48 million. The remaining 16 million dollars was handled through a private contract, resulting in
the evasion of taxes on this amount. Nearly 800 thousand dollars of tax, which should have been paid,
was also bribed to the director of the Department of City Planning.” Jerome explained, his expression
noticeably grave. “In Lexingcester, compared to the briber, the bribe recipient faces harsher
punishment. However, tax evasion is treated very strictly under Lexingcester’s laws. Once commercial
tax evasion is discovered, it is dealt with using the most severe criminal laws.”
“My father definitely did not do it,” Laurel didn’t need to doubt at all.
Jerome nodded. “I also believe that Mr. Lambert did not do it. Now the most important thing is to obtain
all the information about the case and then conduct further research.”
Laurel also knew that it was useless to be anxious now.
The most important thing now is to get Irvin released on bail and then obtain the so-called evidence.
She believed.
No matter how perfect the crime was, there would always be loopholes.
The car arrived at the prosecutor’s office all the way.
After going through a series of procedures, Jerome made copies of all the case materials, obtained
bail, and then left the prosecutor’s office with Irvin.
Sitting in the car.

Laurel quickly asked, “Dad, did they do anything to you?”

“Don’t overthink it,” Irvin chuckled, appearing relaxed. “It’s a rule of law society now, do you think I
would still suffer from violence inside?”
“I was afraid that you couldn’t handle it.”
“I have never done anything that I couldn’t handle,” Irvin said dismissively.
“Dad, you can’t take it lightly,” Laurel reminded.
Irvin looked at his daughter.
He originally wanted to comfort her and not let her worry so much.
But obviously, Laurel knew the seriousness of the situation.
“In any case, let’s talk about it when we get home,” Laurel said without saying much more.
She spoke too loudly, and she was afraid of scaring Irvin.
She said it lightly, but she was afraid that Irvin would underestimate the situation.
They needed to go back and discuss.
The car drove directly toward the Lambert’s villa.
In front of the villa gate, there was a black car parked.
Laurel recognized it at a glance, this was her grandmother’s exclusive car.
Chapter 248 The Scheme (2)
So.
Her grandmother’s family came.
This family was really impatient.

“Mr. Howe, could you please give me the photocopy? I want to discuss it with my dad first, and we’ll
find you later.” Laurel clearly didn’t want Jerome to get involved in her family
matters.
Jerome nodded. “Alright, you can discuss it first, but as a lawyer, I feel obligated to remind you that it’s
best not to hide anything from me. This case is currently quite tricky, and if you don’t cooperate with
me, I will have a hard time ensuring
success.”
He might have thought that they were going to collude privately.
Laurel smiled. “Don’t worry, we knew the importance of the matter. Mr. Howe, we need your help
today.”
“Of course.”
Jerome got out of the car at the entrance of the villa.
Mike drove them into the gate.
Irvin, of course, also saw his mother’s car and knew they had arrived.
He said, “Laurel, don’t argue with your grandmother too fiercely.”
“It depended on how she did it,” Laurel said coldly.
