Love Comes To Me
Chapter 1619: Hard as nails

Kyoto, Bartram family.

The two policemen watching the Bartram family retreated when they received the news of Earlene's arrest.

Seeing this, Rawlins and Granny Bartram had a bad feeling in their hearts. The police surveillance was just to get information about Earlene, so withdrawing the surveillance meant ...

"Rawlins, check it out! You go and check!" Granny Bartram shouted, pushing Rawlins' arm.

Just then Rawlins' phone rang, "Young Master, the police got to Miss before us and now, she's, she's at the police station."

Granny Bartram was straight away confused, "No, how could this happen, I'm going to see Earlene!"

...

The next morning, Rawlins took Granny Bartram to the police station in City J to see Earlene.

Earlene appeared at the visitation window, dressed in her prison uniform.

Seeing Earlene again in this place after so long, and seeing her face, Granny Bartram broke down instantly, "Earlene, my Earlene!"

Granny Bartram's body had almost collapsed last time because of Earlene's sudden death, and it was hard to accept the fact that his own granddaughter had passed away, and now seeing her here was even harder to accept. Granny Bartram cried and called out Earlene's name, "Earlene, how could you be so stupid, why did you come back!"

Earlene smiled bitterly, her face very haggard, after this night she already knew what she was going to face and looked away, only, she couldn't let go of her debt to her family.

"I'm sorry, Granny, brother, I'm ungrateful for putting you all through this for nothing, it's Earlene's fault ..."

Granny Bartram couldn't hear any of this and fainted as she cried.

The news of Earlene's arrest spread and many journalists blocked the entrance to the police station to report on the story.

The story was also spread all over the internet.

"My God! How dare you escape the criminal law by faking your own death? And the Bartram family must have been in on it too.

"Maybe they arranged for the fake death drug and then deliberately joined forces to target the Rogers Group... Wow, that's scary!"

As the story continued to fester, many shareholders began to sell their shares in the Bartram family, and many partnerships were even suspended. The Bartram Group lost a lot of money.

The news of Winston's arrest also reached the ears of the directors of the domestic branch, and an emergency meeting was immediately held.

"I really didn't expect this Winston, actually did so many bad things, the suspension and recuperation in the first few days already had a great impact on the company, this time the person in charge was arrested... if we don't manage it again, the company will be finished ah, we must find a strategy to deal with it." One director slapped the table in righteous indignation.

Another director also frowned and spoke, "Yes, a way must be found to reduce the impact, we can't stand by and watch the company collapse."

"No matter what, Winston has to leave the company and we'll just have to re-elect the person in charge."

"There's no other way to do it but that."

Soon after, the board issued a statement and Winston was expelled from the company's board.

Bergerian saw the news online and had some mixed emotions.

He had nothing to do with Winston, Earlene or Lisa, and it was irrelevant to him that they had disappeared.

Yet, these people were all stalwarts in the fight against Hector.

But in just a few months, all of them have failed to target the Rogers Group, and Hector has caught them in the crossfire and cleaned them up. This shows the strength of Hector.

The Rogers Group is getting stronger and stronger now...

"Mr. Bergerian."

A slightly tired voice interrupted Bergerian's musing.

"Chris, have a seat." Bergerian nodded, the person who came was no other than Chris.

Chris had panicked when he was told the news, knowing that he had tripped up the Rogers Group, both explicitly and implicitly.

If Hector was to pursue the matter, he would be no better off, and he hadn't slept a wink all night.

He had no choice but to come to his ally, Bergerian, to discuss his options.

Chris sat down as he was told and spoke up anxiously, "Mr Bergerian, what should we do now? With Hector's character, he won't let us go!"

"Right now, Rogers Group is getting better and better, we will definitely lose if we spend time with him at home, so we can only move our business further out." Bergerian pondered for a moment before saying slowly.

That was the conclusion he had come to after thinking about it for so long; the chances of Hector packing them up after dealing with those three would be high, and if he didn't leave again, it probably wouldn't end well.

Chris also felt he was right and nodded his head repeatedly, "That's really the only way to go too, he shouldn't recoil that quickly so we still have time."

...

In the guardhouse, after asking Bergerian for help to no avail, Lisa was disheartened to know that he had given up on her completely.

Now that even Earlene and Winston had been arrested, her chances of getting out of here had become even slimmer.

In prison, she thought for days and realized that the only person who could help her was actually Hector.

She approached the police and voiced her request to see Hector.

After receiving the news, Hector had some vague suspicions and, without further hesitation, contacted Joaquin and went to see her.

Lisa had become haggard after spending so much time in the guardhouse.

She looked at Hector and Joaquin through the visitation window and pulled the corners of her mouth feebly, "You're here."

"Why do you want to see me?" Hector had no intention of catching up with her and got straight to the point.

"I can help you find crucial evidence of Bergerian's crimes." Lisa watched Hector's expression hopefully.

There was a fleeting surprise in Hector's eyes and his voice was faint, "Oh?"

Lisa was afraid that Hector would lose his patience and did not dare to beat around the bush, "Before, when Bergerian destroyed the research institutes under his name, it was just the surface, in reality, there are still many institutes that are still operating normally."

"Bergerian's family, underground roots, his power is much bigger than you can imagine, only, this man is very deep-rooted, afraid of being traced, so he hid these institutes."

Joaquin didn't expect to learn such valuable clues from her and couldn't help but look at her with a straight face, "How are we going to find these institutes and the evidence, and furthermore, what are your conditions for telling us this?" Seeing Joaquin's interest, Lisa stood up somewhat excitedly and had no choice but to sit down again after meeting the prison guard's eyes.

"I have only one request, let me go back to my country. If you can grant me that, I will give you this important clue."

She took a deep breath and continued, "You must know that no one but me knows these secrets of Bergerian's. With his meticulous mind, it would be as hard as hell for you to find evidence of his crimes!"
