Chapter 720: The Secret to Chasing Someone
Selene’s eyes were filled with surprise. He had arrived. The person getting out of the car was Harvey. When he woke up, it was already 7:30. He rushed over, running several red lights, and the traffic police were still chasing him.
Harvey looked a bit disheveled as he got out of the car. In his haste, he almost stumbled. “Sarah, Sarah,” Harvey steadied himself and waved at Selene with a smile. “Sorry I’m late, I ran into some trouble…”
Selene excitedly opened the car door and got out. Just as she was about to walk toward Harvey, the traffic police arrived. Four or five officers on motorcycles parked and walked towards Harvey.
“You were driving recklessly, running several red lights. Do you have a death wish?” One officer was very angry. “You think driving a fancy car makes you special? What if something happened? Come with us to the police station.”
Harvey knew he was in the wrong and quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, it was my fault. I’ll go with you, but can you give me a few minutes to talk to my girlfriend?”
The officers didn’t care about that. They glanced at Selene but did not relent. “Whatever you need to say, say it at the station,” one of them said.
Harvey quickly looked at John inside the car. “Mr. Wilkinson, John, could you help me out here? Just a few minutes.”
Calling him John left the Wilkinson family stunned by his audacity. Selene couldn’t help but laugh.
Seeing Selene laugh, the Wilkinson family members who were initially upset with Harvey began to soften.
John got out of the car and spoke to the officers. “Thank you for your hard work. I’m John Wilkinson from the Counter-Terrorism Unit. Could you give us three minutes? After that, you can handle him as you see fit.”
Hearing that he was from the Counter-Terrorism Unit and seeing his credentials, the officers decided to give Harvey some time.
Harvey walked over to Selene with a smile and explained, “Sarah, I’m here. I had prepared a gift for you but forgot it in my rush this morning. I drank too much last night at an event and overslept at Mr. Fielding’s hotel.”
Elsa had drugged Harvey so he would sleep until noon, but she was unlucky; her first attempt at buying such drugs resulted in a weak product. Coupled with Harvey’s determination to pick up Selene, his subconscious mind woke him up through sheer willpower.
“Okay,” Selene replied softly. His presence had already made her happy; whether he brought a gift didn’t matter.
“I’ll go with the officers now to take care of my fine and penalty. You and your parents should head back first; I’ll join you later,” Harvey assured her.
So don’t talk about ordinary men; there are only men who love you and men who don’t in this world. There’s no such thing as an ordinary man when it comes to love.
Selene nodded. Harvey waved at John and Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson. “Brother, Uncle, Auntie, please take care of Sarah for me.”
The Wilkinson family members were speechless: “…”
Why did it seem like Selene had become Harvey’s responsibility?
John corrected him: “Don’t call me brother; we’re not related.”
Harvey chuckled cheekily: “It’s only a matter of time. I’ll go now.”
Harvey followed the officers away; running red lights was serious business. He received points on his license, a fine, verbal education, and was required to study traffic rules.
Selene returned to the Wilkinson family home; this time she was truly free.
Mr. Wilkinson and John were both very happy.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Elsa came out of the living room smiling: “Sarah, you’re back.”
Elsa had already changed her clothes, but one’s body shape doesn’t change easily. Selene had been an assassin before; she recognized Elsa at the prison gate but didn’t expose her.
To Selene, Elsa’s tricks were child’s play.
