There was dead silence in the car before a phone call broke the ice.
"Hello," Sasha spoke the moment she answered the call.
"Hello, Ms Jonas," A male voice said over the phone.
"Who's this?"
"My name is Detective Ken from the central police force."
Sasha's, breath suddenly seized, and the hand holding her phone began to shake the moment she heard those words coming out of the phone. Her face had turned pale white.
"I'll be...there" She replied stutteringly.
Ryan noticed the pale and bewildered look on Sasha's face after the call.
"What is it?" He asked, as he slowed down and looked at her face more intensely.
"I have to go to the police station," She told him. "Stop the car" Sasha suddenly requested, as she began to unbuckle her seat belt.
-------
"I've told you that I didn't steal it," Arthur said with frustration.
"Arthur!"
Arthur saw his sister rush inside the police station.
"Arthur!" As Sasha held her brother, she called out, "Authur, what happened to you? Why is there blood all over you?"
"Lady, Your brother is involved in a case of theft." The officer said.
Sasha's face was dark with worry, "Officer, There is no way that is involved in a case of theft."
"Lady, it's useless for you to tell us those things. You got to have evidence. Without evidence, nothing can help you."
"Officer, Can I have a word with you?" A man with a lazy smile spoke from the side.
"Who are you?" The officer asked.
Mathew flashed his businesslike smile and handed over his card. "I am a lawyer, Mathew Stone."
Two policemen glanced at each other. Then, one of them said, "Please take a seat."
Soon, Sasha, Authur and Mathew walked out of the police station. At this time, the luxurious Cayenne was still waiting at the roadside. After hesitating for a while, Sasha slowly walked over with her brother and gently knocked on the car window. The car window slid down, revealing Ryan's impeccable face and powerful aura.

Biting her lip subconsciously, Sasha slowly spoke, "Director Shore, Thank you so much."
Ryan raised his indifferent gaze and glanced at
Authur's blood-stained forehead. His brother was alike her. He thought.
"I don't have any words to say. Thank you so much, Mathew." Sasha thanked.
"You don't have to thank me. You are like a sister to me....."
"Sasha! Will you not send your brother to the hospital?" Ryan interrupted gaining a meaningful look from Mathew.
------
After they reached the hospital, Sasha immediately had Authur undergo medical examinations and had his wounds bandaged. Fortunately, other than suffering some superficial wounds, there was nothing serious about Authur's injuries, and Sasha could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that, feeling much more relieved in her heart. After her brother got the wounds treated, they all left the hospital.
At this time, Sasha unexpectedly saw that Ryan had not left yet and was still waiting outside. Thinking about what had happened today, she bit her lip and immediately went forward to thank Ryan again. "Director Shore, thank you so much for today. If it weren't for your help, my brother might still be locked up right now." She was grateful to him from the bottom of her heart.
"Don't you promise that you will call me by my name?" Ryan asked.
"Who is this, Sasha?" Ryan whispered in curiosity.
Smiling, Sasha quickly introduced, "Authur, this is Director Ryan Shore of PKs."
"Jennifer's cousin..?" Authur spoke in an audible voice.
"Yes, Nice to meet you, Authur. Call me Ryan." Ryan extended his hand.
"Nice to meet you too....." Authur reached for Ryan's hands.
-----
"Ryan Shore, You already get scored points from Sasha's brother." Mathew chuckled. "What are you scared of?" Mathew added.
Ryan lit a cigarette for himself and placed it between his lips, his eyes smouldering slightly.
"I know. Man! You are scared that she might reject you." Mathew spoke curtly.
Indeed he blew out a ring of smoke, Ryan asked in a low voice, "Do you think so?"
Mathew put down his wine glass and said, "There is something in her eyes. The eyes of distancing away from you."
Ryan had wanted to refute his words when her phone suddenly rang. He frowned when she noticed it was an unknown number.
"Hello, It's me, Sasha Jonas. Sorry for calling you late." Sasha said in low voice.
"Sasha...!" Ryan knitted his brows. His heart was beginning to race frantically.
"I forget to give your jacket. I will wash it and return it to you tomorrow."
"Okay. Meet me after work." A small smile tore in his face.
"Director, I will send it to your secretary," Sasha replied.
Is she rejecting to meet up with him?
An iciness flashed over his face. "Okay." He hung up the call.
Meanwhile, When there is 'beep' sound from the other side. Sasha confusedly look at her phone blinking her eyes rapidly.
