Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1573

Xanthus was explaining Raeleigh's case to the police when Jepherson arrived at the station. Xanthos's tone was considered benevolent as he talked, but his expression was rather dark. Anyone close to him could immediately detect that he was seething with anger and that he was faking a smile.

"Are you implying that my girlfriend's crazy?"

"No, that's not what I mean. You are a foreigner, so I don't want it to affect our relationship."

The police had already arranged for someone else to talk to him, but Xanthus was not planning to leave until Raeleigh was released.

He knocked on the table at the mention of his nationality in annoyance, "All this just because I was born overseas? I was already planning to denounce my foreign citizenship, but I did not expect to be discriminated against because of this."

"My girlfriend is innocent. Do you think I'm going to believe you just because of what you said?"

"Do you have any evidence? I am a doctor, and I can see that my girlfriend is mentally unstable. For all I know, maybe you guys caused her to act like that." "Sir, look..."

Before the police could finish his sentence, Jepherson entered the room with his legal team. Moreover, he had overheard the conversation between Xanthus and the police.

"Excuse me, we're here to release Miss Anson on bail."

Jepherson entered the door and walked up to Xanthus, nodding his head as a polite greeting. Xanthus basically had no power of that sort, so if he had not called Jepherson to come over, Raeleigh most probably would not be released.

When Xanthus saw Jepherson, he heaved a sigh of relief.

The lawyers immediately walked over to the police officer to discuss Raeleigh's situation. The police officers were initially unfazed, but when they saw Jepherson, they immediately scrambled to their feet in total surprise.

Everyone in the police station was staring at the group. Jepherson pulled out a chair nonchalantly and sat down, crossing his legs and resting his hands on his lap comfortably.

He then asked Xanthus, "Have you seen her?"

"Yes, I have. They accused Raeleigh of trespassing and attempting to break into the prison. They want her to plead guilty, but I suspect that they must have used some means to induce Raeleigh to confess. I will hire the best lawyers to represent her and to protect her rights."

"It has already been 36 hours since Raeleigh left home. I'm not sure how long she's been locked up in here, but they are not allowed to detain her unless they have sufficient evidence to press charges."

Jepherson looked over at his lawyers and gestured, "What do you guys think?"

The lawyers exchanged glances before one of them said, "This case is a little strange, but we have to act in the best interest of Miss Raeleigh and protect her rights. Since Mr. Osteen is a doctor, why don't we let him examine her injury first to avoid further complications?"

"What do you guys think?" Jepherson looked at the police officers opposite him. One of them hesitated before asking, "You must be the vice president of the Richards Group, am I right?"

"And what does that have to do with the bail?" Jepherson's response was cold and unruffled.

The police officer pondered for a moment before shrugging, "Oh, it's nothing. It's just that Miss Raeleigh has only been here for six hours on the basis that she has violated the law. We're the ones who should be pressing charges, not you."

"According to the law, she has violated..."

"You don't have to explain it to me. You can talk to my lawyers. As for Raeleigh, I think we should hear both sides of the story rather than relying on yours alone, don't you think?"
