Chapter 497: 175: Don’t be afraid, I’lle to take you home_6
During all this, Rachel Barton had been standing behind Vi Thompson.
Then Beatrice ck said, “I’m your mother! Themand of parents and the bond of marriage, whoever I tell you to marry, you should marry! I’ve already received the bride price! If you want to leave, you have toe up with half a million dors aspensation for Conn!”
“Plus mental damages!” added Dalton Tavas. “Otherwise, you’ll never get out of the Mayhew family’s gate!”
“1 million dors! You have topensate my family for 1 million dors!”
At that moment.
There was amotion outside the door.
“The vige chief!”
“The vige chief is here!”
Hearing this, Dalton Tavas and Zachary Mayhew breathed a sigh of relief.
The vige chief’s surname was also Mayhew.
He was from the same family.
At this time, the vige chief would definitely speak for their family.
The vigers made way for the chief.
“Grandpa Mayhew!”
Zachary Mayhew looked at the vige chief.
Dalton Tavas and Jimmy Mayhew also looked at him with great concern, “Uncle.”
Thinking that the vige chief would definitely vindicate them, they didn’t expect the vige chief to walk respectfully to Terrence Lentz’s side and say with a smile, “Sorry, Mr. Lentz, for shocking you!”
Terrence Lentz slightly frowned, “You are the vige chief here?”
“Yes, yes, yes,” the vige chief nodded repeatedly, “Mr. Lentz, rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory exnation for this matter today.”
Seeing this scene.
The Mayhew family and the vigers present were dumbfounded.
Who is this man?
Why is the vige chief in such a panic around him?
It is worth noting that in their eyes, the vige chief was like a god.
Terrence Lentz pursed his thin lips, not saying anything.
He was angry and imposing.
The vige chief was very anxious at heart.
He didn’t understand why this inconsequential small vige had attracted such a big shot.
How to end this situation now!
The vige chief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Frightened, his legs trembled.
Then, the vige chief looked at Zachary Mayhew and scolded him righteously, “Zachary Mayhew! Do you know that your behavior has already involved human trafficking and illegal detention? This is a crime!”
After saying this, the vige chief pointed at Beatrice ck and Gregory Diet, “You two! You can’t escape either! Get ready to go to jail!”
Jail?
Beatrice ck looked at the vige chief, “How is my daughter’s marriage a crime? Which family in our vige doesn’t marry off their daughters? Are all of them criminals?”
In Beatrice ck’s view, this was a perfectly ordinary matter.
Rachel Barton was her daughter.
Whoever she wanted Rachel to marry, Rachel should marry!
How much bride price she wanted to receive, she would receive!
After all, if it weren’t for her, Rachel wouldn’t exist.
All this was heaven-ordained!
“Marrying off your daughter? Did you get your daughter’s consent?” the vige chief was very angry, “Your daughter didn’t agree, and that’s a crime! This iswless!”
At this moment, Rachel Barton roared, “You are not my parents! I don’t have parents like you! You are beasts! You are just beasts!”
“I am your mother, and without me, there would be no you! You think you can just disown me? Where on earth is there such a thing!” said Beatrice ck, as she proceeded to grab and pull Rachel Barton. “You little bitch, now you don’t even listen to me, I see you just need a beating!”
“Enough!” The vige chief directly waved Beatrice ck away at this moment, “I’m still here! If I’m not here, do you have any regard for thew at all?”
The vige chief was a very pragmatic man.
Of course, he knew who was standing in front of Rachel.
If he angered this important person at this time, he would really be in trouble.
Beatrice ck was pushed off bnce by the vige chief, anding back to her senses, she directlyy on the floor and started to throw a tantrum, “He hit me! The vige chief hit me! I don’t want to live anymore! What’s the point of living!”
“Woo-woo!”
At the same time, an urgent siren sounded in the air.
Then, several uniform d policemen entered one after another.
The vige chief went up to them immediately, “Hello police officers, I am the vige chief of Olsand Vige, and I called the police. We have people in our vige suspected of human trafficking and illegal detention.”
When he realized the seriousness of the matter, the vige chief immediately called the police.
As soon as the words were spoken, Dalton Tavas began to disy her shrewish skills, crying and wailing, “Oh, my God! Oh, my mom! It’s a miscarriage of justice! We’ve paid the bride price and made efforts, how can it be called human trafficking? Police officers, they are trying to snatch away our newlywed daughter-inw. You must bring justice for us!”
“They are the ones trafficking people! Police officers, you must eradicate evil and promote good! Be on the side of the people!”
Beatrice ck and Gregory Diet weren’t panicking at all.
They were just marrying off their daughter normally, which didn’t count as human trafficking.
Beatrice ck threw herself onto the police officer with tears and snot running down her face, “Heavenly grandpa, I’m my daughter’s biological mother; we didn’t do anything illegal. As a mother, don’t I even have the right to decide who my daughter marries?”
The police officer nced at Beatrice ck, “Let’s all go to the police station.”
Go to the police station?
Now Beatrice ck was unhappy.
She hadn’t done anything wrong, so why should she go to the police station?
But whether she goes or not is not up to her.
For uncooperative people, the police simply showed their handcuffs.
Most of the vigers present were taken to the police station.
At the police station.
Jimmy Mayhew, Dalton Tavas, and Zachary Mayhew confessed without hesitation to using half a million dors to ‘marry’ Rachel Barton and forcibly locking her up in their house.
Because in their eyes, these were all normal things.
Since they had spent money, Rachel was their daughter-inw.
Beating, scolding, or locking Rachel up were all part of their family affair.
The police had no right to interfere.
After he finished speaking, Zachary Mayhew stood up from the chair in the interrogation room and said confidently, “When can I go home?”
The police officer conducting the interrogation was infuriated and pped the table, “Go back! You still want to go back! Do you know that you’ve broken thew? You’re suspected of human trafficking, illegal detention, and assault! This will be enough to imprison you for a lifetime!”
Zachary Mayhew gave the officer an arrogant nce, “Don’t try to scare me with breaking thew. Sleeping with my own wife, whatw is that? Whichw stiptes that I can’t sleep with my wife? And whichw stiptes that I can’t lock my wife up at home? She’s my wife; I can lock her up for as long as I want! What does it have to do with you? Don’t bully me because I don’t understand, hitting my wife at most counts as domestic violence!”
Zachary Mayhew wasn’t very educated, having dropped out of school after elementary school, and had a shallow understanding of thew.
His thinking was still stuck in the past.
Well, it’s the countryside.
Which couple doesn’t fight in a rural vige?
Watching this, if it weren’t for the regtions of the police station, the officer in charge of the interrogation would have wanted to punch Zachary Mayhew.
He was furious!
How could there be such scum in the world!
Beatrice ck and Gregory Diet were also moring to go home.
Especially Beatrice ck.
“My son is waiting for me to cook for him at home, if he starves to death, who will take responsibility!”
