My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 1549

Hundreds of police officers appeared in the hall downstairs and surrounded the villa. I was taken aback by such a scene until I caught a glimpse of Hendrix among the crowd. It had only been a few days since we last met. He was wearing a dark-colored coat, and he was still so eye-catching in the crowd.

I was stunned. We stared at each other, and I felt a feeling of warmth surging from the bottom of my heart. I sprinted straight towards him without giving it a second thought.

All my emotions and worries were like a surge of violent waves gushing straight at him.

Meanwhile, he strode towards me as well. I hadn't felt this many emotions as this exact instant. I sprinted right into his embrace and I buried my head in his arms.

For a moment, my heart was filled with warmth and satisfaction. Then, my eyes started to tear up. "I thought that I would never be able to see you again. I thought that I would have to face everything all by myself. I thought you would never come. I thought..." "Stupid!" He held me in his arms and said in a low and muffled voice, "How could I let you face everything alone?"

Lying in his arms, I gradually calmed down, and a feeling of warmth spread through my entire body. It was fascinating, whenever I was with him, I would feel at ease. Whenever he was by my side, I felt like I had control over everything in the world.

After hugging each other for some time, he held onto me and said gently, "Be good, let's deal with the things now first!"

I nodded. There were still many things to deal with in the villa, all of which were of utmost priority.

The police surrounded the entire villa, and the commanding officer stared at Hendrix and asked, "Mr. Roberts, should we barge in?"

Hendrix nodded and said, "Look for Sebastian first. As for the rest, just arrest them. Keep the place as intact as possible so as not to destroy any evidence."

"Alright!"

As they prepared to enter the villa, I reminded them, "Sebastian keeps poisonous pets on the third floor, including snakes and lizards. Do be careful." The policeman who was in the lead nodded and thanked me.

I leaned against Hendrix and didn't follow them into the villa. Seeing that Hendrix was staring at me, I asked curiously, "When did you return? It should have taken you four hours to travel from Asherton to Jarold City."

His eyes fell on me as he answered, "Tobias sent me a message before the both of you left to come here. Sebastian wouldn't invite you over for no good reason. If he couldn't get his hands on that box, he would definitely try to imprison you. Currently, the Milton family desperately needs that contract, so he will definitely come looking for you."

"So, you came back after you got the news?"

He nodded and continued, "I only brought the policemen over after Tobias had finished figuring out the layout and situation inside the villa. This time, with Tobias' help, Sebastian will definitely be arrested." I nodded. "What about your investigation in Asherton? Have you found any concrete evidence or confessions?"

"Yes, we have gotten hold of the confessions. Now, we will let Evan deal with it."

It was finally over.

Sebastian had been struck by Naomi, and he was unconscious. The policemen ransacked the entire place and found a ton of exotic wild animals, as well as firearms in the basement. Sebastian was arrested for being involved in multiple crimes. The rest of the people in the villa were released after being interrogated. This had a huge impact on the Milton family.

The Milton family's stock was already not doing so well, and now because of this incident, it plummeted. Sebastian was also being detained for the time being.
