Stunned, the man’s body stiffened.
“He is?”
Ignoring him, the senior officer addressed his colleagues, “The suspect shouldn’t have gone far. We
need your help.
The local police agreed, and they hurried to chase after Sierra.
As the younger policeman turned to leave, he shot a contemptuous glance at the man.
“When we arrest her, you’ll be next! Did you think you’re some kind of hero by helping out a damsel in
distress?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWell, let me tell you, buddy, you’re obstructing justice, and that’s a serious offense. If someone gets
abducted and sold by her again, it’ll be on your head!”
The man stood wide-eyed and trembled at the thought of being arrested.
Luckily for him, the officers were too preoccupied to gather his information. Being a tourist, he promptly
left Mathias overnight.
He was shocked to learn Sierra was involved in human trafficking, something he would never have
suspected. After returning, he often wondered if the police had caught her. The idea of her running
away filled him with overwhelming guilt.
Meanwhile, Rita had her men stationed outside the hotel to pick them up.
With no time to purchase plane tickets, they were forced to take the train.
Realizing Rita and Sierra had gone far away, the senior officer promptly requested backup.
The police effectively intercepted Rita and Sierra at a high-speed intersection. –
The police apprehended Sierra. They also detained Rita and the driver for questioning as accomplices.
When the Garrett family heard of Sierre’s apprehension, they were pleased.
However, when Horace heard the news, he was enraged.
He rushed to Mathias overnight to bail Rita out.
Outside the police station, he couldn’t contain his anger at Rita.
“No wonder Tyrone suddenly changed his attitude. It’s because of Sierra! I really underestimated her!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow could she engage in human trafficking? She’s a disgrace to this family!
Sierra promised to apologize to Sabrina and change her ways. I thought she had turned over a new
leaf. I was even considering sponsoring her education at a prestigious university abroad. But what a
disappointment! What a vicious and narrow-minded woman. Is this how you raised her?”
Horace was livid. He felt so angered and disgusted that he didn’t want to hear Sierra’s name in his
presence.
Horace never liked Sierra and had already broken ties with the Garrett family because of her. While he
had shown leniency to Sierra in the past for Rita’s sake, he was now adamant about her facing the
consequences. Sierra’s self-conceit and ruthlessness couldn’t go unpunished. How could she abduct
someone, and of all people, Sabrina?
Horace could imagine how Tyrone would treat him in the future! Had the situation not involved Tyrone,
Horace wouldn’t have been this furious.
