Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 236

It was as if the question hung in the air: "Do we get involved in this… or don't we?"

Captain Cliff hadn't expected this either. All he'd done was take a favor from the Morales family and forcefully haul in a girl—only to end up alarming Mr. Andres and the eldest young master of the Perez family.

If he'd known this girl had ties to two men he couldn't afford to offend, Captain Cliff would never have stepped into this mess.

Luka Morales was practically foaming at the mouth. "Cliff, what are you standing there for? Get over here and help me!"

Maeve Vance didn't so much as shift her foot. She looked at Captain Cliff with a half-smile that wasn't friendly in the slightest. "So am I still being held here?"

Captain Cliff, who'd acted tough as nails when he arrested Maeve, was suddenly all polite explanations.

"Mr. White brought a legal team to post bail. Once you sign the paperwork, you'll be free to go."

"If I'd known grabbing this girl would cause this much fallout, I never would've gotten greedy and taken the Morales family's payoff."

Whether it was the White family or the Perez family, they were both way out of his league.

This time, Luka—that old fox—had really set him up.

Andres White walked over to Maeve and soothed her in a low voice. "Don't worry. With lawyers here, those meaningless little video clips can't harm you."

Trying to convict Maeve over one short video? Andres thought whoever planned that was painfully naïve.

Maeve didn't respond to him. She turned instead to the staff in the room.

"If I want to stay locked up, what crime would I need to commit?"

Her question short-circuited the entire room.

Was everyone suddenly bad at comprehension—or was there actually someone in the world asking how to remain detained?

Andres assumed she was throwing a tantrum. He reached out and tugged her to his side.

"You've been under too much pressure lately. Come home with me and rest."

Maeve shot him a glare. "I'm serious."
