"Excuse me, sir..."
Valerie Rae and Lorraine Thomas were sitting outside. When they saw the police coming, they were frightened and they stood up instantly.
By the time they rose to their feet, the police had already made their way into the President's office.
The police ignored them.
"You are suspected of being involved in a smuggling case. Please come with us to the police station."
The police declared to Skylar Holland as soon as they stepped their feet into his office.
When Skylar saw the police, he was not surprised at all. He got up and notified Jayson Lowell, who then came in with Valerie and Lorraine, "Jayson, take care of the company for the time being."
"President Holland, what happened?"
In the company and in front of the police, Valerie still addressed Skylar as President Holland.
"I'm fine."
He then left with the police.
Since he was only a suspect, the police spared him from the handcuffs.
Watching as Skylar's back vanished from her sight, Valerie was stunned.
They were going to get engaged the next day. What was happening?
She quickly picked up the phone and called her father, Hector Rae.
"Dad, the police just took Skylar away. Please find out what's going on!"
Valerie panicked. Uneasiness overwhelmed her when she thought that the engagement ceremony might be canceled.
"What?"
Hector had no idea about this since it had not been exposed to the news and the Internet. However, when he heard Valerie's words, a bad feeling simmered in him.
"The police who came just now said that he was suspected with a smuggling case."
Valerie was about to cry on the other side of the phone.
She was particularly concerned that there would be last-minute changes to the engagement party. After all, she had given her all to get engaged to Skylar.
"Don't worry, I'll get someone to check it out right now."
"Dad, what about the engagement ceremony and banquet tomorrow..."
When she mentioned the engagement banquet, Hector became even more upset. At the request of Valerie and Amelia Harington, Hector had invited a lot of elites. He didn't expect this interruption to happen.
"Let's talk about it later!"
There was nothing more they could do.
After hanging up the phone, Hector asked his friends from all fields to investigate the matter. Soon, he caught wind of the news.
Subsequently, Skylar's arrest was also released on the news broadcast and the Internet.
"The President of Skyton Corporation, Skylar Holland, has been taken away by the police. He is suspected to be involved with the smuggling case of the bodies of babies.
The news caused a sensation everywhere.
The Holland family, the Rae family, and the upper class of City A were all stirred in an uproar.
After all, nothing terrified them more than the curses that he might inflict on his competitors and to make more money for himself.
Everyone was shocked.
Skyton Corporation's staff was among the first to know about this matter. Although no one knew about the engagement between Skylar and Valerie, the two of them were together every day. Seeing how Coralie Charriot was sitting in the office every day, they naturally knew that Skylar and Coralie had broken up.
"Oh my God, is it true that President Holland is involved in the smuggling case?"
"Who knows? But I don't think that President Holland is that kind of person."
