What was more annoying was that Verma, the spy, had injured Sydney.
"It should be terminated. It should be terminated immediately. I’ll call her." Hunter was about to hang up.
Sydney stopped him. "Wait, don't hurry. I called the police when I got injured. Now that the police have found out that Verma was the attacker, they will ask Venn a to go to the police station and facilitate the investigation. So, we only need to go to the police station then."
"Okay." Hunter nodded. At the thought of Verma, he became angry. "Damn! I think I'm good at telling people's character. But I didn’t expect a woman to ruin my plan. Damn!”
Sydney laughed at herself. "It's not just you. I also didn't find that she was so scheming. Perhaps we are so conceited that we think we can control everything. But reality has given us a blow. It's not bad.' A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit,' goes the saying. We won't be fooled in the future.”
"That's right." Hunter smiled bitterly and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry that you have been injured."
"It doesn't matter. The police will inform me when I can go to the police station. I'll contact you then." Sydney rubbed her eyebrows.
"Okay.”
Meanwhile, in the Madden family.
The Maddens were having dinner.
Somehow Clarice suddenly felt nervous and had a bad premonition.
At this moment, her phone rang.
Clarice put down her fork and knife to take her phone out of her pocket. When she saw the police hotline, her expression changed immediately, and she stood up subconsciously.
Her behavior confused Brandon and his wife.
"What's wrong?" Brandon put down his fork and asked.
Mrs. Madden also looked at her with concern. "Why does your face turn pale all of a sudden? Who is calling you?"
"It... It's my adoptive father." Clarice lowered her eyes and lied, suppressing her
guilt.
Brandon banged on the table with a dark face. "Does he call you for money?”
"Yeah... Perhaps." Clarice stared at the floor.
Brandon snorted coldly. "I've asked you not to contact them. Why don't you listen to me? How many times have they asked you for money?"
"Yeah." Mrs. Madden nodded in agreement. "Think about how that family treated you. Why do you still keep in touch with them? If you contact them, they will always ask you for money."
"I'm sorry, Mom, Dad. I know I am wrong." Clarice said apologetically. Actually, she hated the Loffe family very much.
It was not she who took the initiative to contact the Loffe family. She couldn’t wait to stay away from that family for the rest of her life.
When she went to a mall, she happened to meet a woman from her hometown who was working as a cleaner in the mall. The woman had treated her kindly, so when the woman asked her for contact information, she gave her phone number to the woman.
Unexpectedly, the woman gave her phone number to that couple. When the couple knew that she was living a wealthy and comfortable life, they ignored what they had promised Hunter and took the initiative to call her and ask her for money.
If she hadn't threatened them with Hunter, she was afraid that the couple would have come to Port City.
"Okay, it's good that you know you’re wrong. Change your phone number later, and sever your relationship with them completely." Brandon picked up the fork and ordered.
Clarice nodded repeatedly. "I know, and I'll make it clear to them."
She stood up and walked out of the dining room.
If it was really the call from the Loffe family, Clarice didn't need to avoid her parents.
However, this call was not from the Loffe family, but from the police.
She didn't know why the police called her. But it was better for her to go to another room to answer the call.
When Clarice stepped into the living room, she answered the call. Raising the phone to her ear, she spoke in a slightly trembling voice, "Hello..."
Is that Miss Madden?" An indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone.
Hearing this voice, Clarice had an intuition that something awful was about to happen. She could not help tightening the phone. " Yes."
"Since you're Miss Clarice, please come to the police station within an hour to facilitate investigating a case." The policeman said.
Clarice's expression changed."
