Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 721

Janet smiled calmly. Seeing the bewildered look on Allie's face, she explained, "There's no other criminal here. The police are here to arrest you because I called them. You stole and sold the Turner family's business secrets not long after Miss Turner's passing. Don't you know that that's a crime? I was just calling the police to help the Turner family."

Allie's heart leaped to her throat. "Janet, you haven't thought this through! Aren't you afraid that the police will take away the information you want?"

"My husband will definitely find a way to get the information I need. But what about you? Is there someone from your family that can save you from prison?"

All the color drained from Allie's face in an instant. She knew that Brandon was very powerful in both Seacisco and Barnes, whereas she had nothing. She could only be at the mercy of others.

"Janet! You are such a bitch! You'll pay for this!" She cursed at the top of her lungs. Looking around desperately, she found an open window at the corner of the room. She immediately ran towards the window with her computer bag in tow.

A few seconds after Allie climbed out of the window, the door of the room was kicked open by the police.

"Ma'am, are you okay? Were you the one who called the police?" When the policeman saw Janet all alone in the room, he walked towards her in confusion. "What happened?"

With a calm smile, she stood up and apologized, "I'm sorry, officer. It was all a huge misunderstanding. When I went to the bathroom just now, I thought somebody had stolen my wallet, but it turned out that a girl had picked it up when I dropped it. She just left." ******

Allie climbed out of the window awkwardly. Without thinking, she ran down the street in a hurry. She couldn't let the police catch her. If she was caught, she would be doomed.

Just as she slowed down to catch her breath, someone suddenly gagged her from behind and dragged her into a quiet alley nearby.

"Who's there?! Let me go!" Allie's face turned pale with fright. She used the computer bag as a weapon and smashed it at the stranger.

"Ouch! What the hell's wrong with you? Are you trying to lure the police here?" The woman crossed her arms in front of her chest and stared at Allie impatiently.

Allie found the voice very familiar. She took a closer look and found that the person who had dragged her here was Vivian.

Allie breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, it's just you. You scared me!"

Vivian had confirmed that this was a safe place to talk, so she dragged Allie here. She snapped, "What the fuck happened in there? You were about to succeed! Why'd you suddenly run out?" Fortunately, Vivian had reacted quickly and caught up with Allie. Otherwise, she would've lost the idiot.
