"No, I'm not going." Kate shook her head furiously and stepped back.
The two police officers said with solemn faces, "If you don't come with us, you will be put under arrest, and your crime will be aggravated."
Frightened, Kate hurriedly brought the phone in her hand to her ear. "Lyra, the police are here to arrest me. You have to save me. Please save me..."
However, there was no response on the phone.
Kate looked at the screen but found that the call had already hung up.
At that moment, she became hopeless and slumped to the ground dully.
The two officers exchanged looks before pulling her up and taking her away.
"Hello, Ms. Raines." In the patrol car, the officer who flashed his ID earlier contacted Sydney. "Ms. Morgan has been caught."
"Alright, thank you." Sydney smiled and thanked them.
After that, the call ended.
Luke brought a cup of coffee to her. "Who was that?"
"The police." Sydney picked up the coffee and took a sip.
Luke immediately understood. "It's about Kate Morgan's arrest, right?"
Sydney nodded. "Yes, it is."
Luke laughed gleefully. "I knew it. Chairman Morgan is bent on marrying Kate into a rich family, but with this incident, his dream will go up in flames. It'll also affect Morgan Enterprise. I'm afraid Chairman Morgan will hate his daughter from now on."
"You're right." Sydney smiled.
At that moment, there was a knock on the office door, and Sophie poked her head in. "President Raines, a lawyer named Mr. Collins wants to meet you."
"A lawyer?" Sydney raised her brows and looked at Luke. "Did you call for him?"
Luke shook his head. "Why would I call for a lawyer?"
Sophie replied, "Mr. Collins claims to be from Flint Corporation's legal department."
"Flint Corporation?" Luke narrowed his eyes. "Darling, he's one of Julien's men. Does he also want to sue you because he feels offended by what you said in the press conference?"
Sydney pursed her lips. "We'll find out soon enough.
Invite him in."
"Yes." Sophie nodded.
A minute later, Mr. Collins came in and nodded to Sydney and Luke. "President Raines, President Chase."
"Have a seat, Mr. Collins." Sydney gestured for him to sit down.
Mr. Collins said his thanks and pulled the chair across her to sit down.
Meanwhile, Luke poured him a cup of tea.
Mr. Collins said his thanks again before stating his purpose. "As you already know, I was sent here by President Flint."
"Does he want to sue me?" Sydney leaned back and stared at him.
Mr. Collins smiled and shook his head. "No. I m here to redistribute the divorce property with you on President Flint's orders."
"Divorce property?" Luke exclaimed.
Sydney, too, was stunned.
Mr. Collins took out a document from the briefcase he brought with him. "President Raines, this is the distribution of property President Flint had drawn up, among which are five villas, two apartments, five cars, and 30 million dollars in alimony. Please take a look."
He handed the document to her with both hands.
However, Sydney did not take it.
Mr. Collins did not find it humiliating. Instead, he placed it on the table and pushed it towards her, but Luke picked the papers up.
He flipped through the documents and sneered." Julien Flint distributed these measly things? Shouldn't property be divided 50/50 after divorce? Shouldn't half the shares of Flint Corporation be given to my darling as well?"
At that, Mr. Collins broke out in cold sweat. "President Chase, you really do know how to joke around. When Ms. Raines and Mr. Flint got married, they both signed a notarization of property. Thus, it's only natural that Ms. Raines doesn't get any shares."
