The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 450 Imprisonment

Alan knew there was no hope for saving Dawn. He glanced at her and, given her nature, decided it was best to

let the police take her away-maybe stin custody would address her laziness. He also didn't dare to push

Patrick any further, fearing retaliation that might jeopardize the Vertex Innovations Group.

Alan thought it was worth sacrificing his mother for the stability of the group.

Alan said, "Patrick, if you insist on Dawn being arrested, fine. Just hope you can calm down and spare Vertex

Innovations Group."

Patrick coldly retorted, "When did | ever say that Dawn is the only one who needs to be arrested?"

Patrick wouldn't let Alan off the hook for harassing Molly, either.

Alan was too self-righteous.

Alan shouted angrily, "Patrick!"

Patrick said to Molly, "Submit the harassment evidence, and then you and Vera can leave."

"Okay!" Molly was thrilled.

Vera clung to Patrick's arm. "Honey, | don't want to leave."

Patrick coaxed Vera, "You and Molly go out first and see if she's hurt."

Vera looked at Molly and realized Patrick wanted to send her away.

She was considerate, so she got up. "Alright, I'll go out with Molly."

Molly said, "Patrick, | want them all in jail."

Patrick replied, "Okay."

After that, Molly and Vera were sent out.

Once they left the room, Patrick no longer restrained his anger.

Patrick would definitely make them pay for it.

To reach his current level, he had to play dirty.

Patrick asked, "Officers, what can today's incident be classified as?"

The police looked at the evidence in their hands. "It is indeed harassment and verbal abuse, and the most severe

cases can lead to detention."

Patrick set his phone down on the table, a slight smile on his face but an aura of authority in his demeanor. "No,

this is classified as a violent assault, warranting a prison term of over two years." Everyone in the conference

room was stunned, looking at Patrick.

What was he trying to do?

Even Ellie was shocked, realizing Patrick wanted Alan and Dawn imprisoned.

Was he really that ruthless?!

Alan knew this well and was also frightened. "Patrick, we just had a little disagreement, it doesn't warrant jail

time, does it?"

Patrick snorted, "Molly said she wanted you in jail, and | agreed. A detention of just a few days is not enough."

Patrick didn't spell it out, but Alan understood. First, get Dawn into jail, then find other charges against her, piling

them up so she wouldn't get out.

Alan's fingertips were icy, and his legs were trembling.

Patrick was someone he could never afford to cross.

The police said, "Patrick, although..."

"You are only responsible for arresting them," Patrick interrupted them coldly.

The officers exchanged glances, thinking, 'Is it really possible that Patrick's word alone could land Dawn in

prison?*

Patrick looked at his phone screen, where he had set Vera's photo as his wallpaper. Vera had even teased him,

"Honey, you're so cheesy."

Outside the conference room, Molly took Vera around. "Vera, that soup you handed over just now was so timely."

Vera said, "Why didn't you tell us he harassed you before?"

Molly sighed, "You're pregnant. | didn't want to burden you with this. Patrick's already stressed enough about

you; this was a minor issue. No need to involve him." "Does Randall know about this?"

Molly said, "Everyone but you."

Vera said, "I feel so left out."

Vera sat in the MS Group's lounge, resting her chin on her hand. "Why do you think Patrick kicked us out?"

Molly also sat down. "Do you think he's afraid we'll learn his tricks for dealing with people and use them

ourselves?"

Vera shook her head. She understood Patrick well. "I think Patrick's worried that if we see just how powerful he is,

we'll lose our respect for him."

"What do you mean? If we knew how capable Patrick is, we would admire him even more. Why wouldn't he want

us to know?" Molly inquired.

Vera replied, "Because if we know, it means we'll cause even bigger trouble in the future."

If they knew Patrick could handle anything, they would have no fear and dare to do anything.

Vera imagined if she committed serious crimes and Patrick still covered for her. She thought to herself, ‘No way, |

couldn't do it alone; | need someone to keepin line, or I'd turn into a real troublemaker." "Why are you

shaking your head again?" Molly asked.

Vera said, "I'm refusing to beca troublemaker."

After a while, Dawn was crying as she was taken away by the police, leaving Molly and Vera puzzled.

Molly said, "Just being detained for a few days, is it really necessary to cry so miserably?"

Vera nodded. "Exactly."

Soon, Alan was also unwillingly dragged by the police and shouted, "Let go of me." The police said, "Behave

yourself."

Molly hurriedly clapped. "Congratulations."

"Molly, I'll kill you." Dawn, recalling Patrick's words in the office, rushed to attack Molly.

Molly said, "Are you crazy; wait till Sebastian comes back and see how he deals with you."

The police took them away, attracting the attention of MS Group employees.

One employee said, "Did you hear? The ones getting arrested are Alan, the president of Vertex Innovations

Group, and his mother. He harassed Molly and ended up cursing her out. His mom even blamed Ms. Wright for

their problems after her divorce. Good riddance."

Another person joined in. "And you know what? Patrick was involved today. The pregnant woman is Molly's

friend, guess who she is?"

"Who?" someone asked curiously.

"Patrick's wife, and she's carrying his child. | saw Patrick when he cupstairs, he's really handsome."

"Oh con, his wife is still upstairs."

"| bet Patrick's going to make sure Vertex Innovations Group gets what's coming to them."

"lI agree."

At noon, when Patrick was about to take Vera and Molly to lunch, Ellie called out to him, "Patrick, can I talk to you

for a moment?"
