Chapter 182 Arresting Danna
“What about Ms. York and Gavin?” Ethen glanced at Benjamin. They had yet to track them down.
Benjamin’s eyes flickered at the mention of their names. “I will look for them personally.”
He then turned and got into the car. Ethen assigned one bodyguard as his driver.
Benjamin tried to locate Gavin but to no avail. His eyebrows furrowed in frustration.
Arissa and the other two children could not be found.
Is she avoiding me? Are the kids with her? Even Gavin?
Benjamin rubbed his temples.
Meanwhile, Ethen and his men had arrived at the police station with the two culprits. They filed a police report pertaining to their crimes five years ago as well as the attempted kidnapping earlier that day.
All evidence pointed to Danna, the true mastermind behind everything. The police swiftly sprang into action.
Danna had been expecting for Benjamin. Her call eventually got through to him.
“Benjamin, my head hurts! When are you coming over?”
“I’ll be there soon!” he said coldly, and hung up soon after.
Danna did not notice the wrath in his voice. Clutching to her phone, her lips tugged into a sweet smile as a blissful sensation washed over her.
I know it! Benjamin loves me.
Unfortunately, the police had come for her.
When the door opened, Danna hopped off her bed. She intended to greet her lover with a smile.
“Benjamin-”
She jolted when she realized that it was not him at the door.
What are the police doing here?
“Ms. Adams, you are suspected of kidnapping. Please follow us!”
Danna’s face darkened, yet managed to pull herself together. She was a proud Adams, after all.
“I didn’t do anything. Believe it or not, I can sue you for slander!”
The police officer confronting her was not afraid of her arrogance. They had Benjamin as their backing. Between the Grahams and the Adams, it was a no-brainer when it came to deciding who they would choose to serve.
“We shall investigate, Ms. Adams. This way, please!” the police officer said firmly. If she still refused to cooperate, they would not hesitate to use force.
Danna was furious. Panic washed through her.
Who told on me? Is it those two?
“Can’t you wait till I fully recover? I’ve recently been hit by a car. My head hurts…”
“I’m afraid we have to take you away by force if you refuse to cooperate.”
The police officer waved the handcuffs in his hands, indicating his comrades to get ready.
Apparently, Danna could not afford to embarrass herself as a public figure.
“Fine. I will go with you!”
She gritted her teeth and stepped out.
She also let her hair down to conceal her face.
The police had caused quite a ruckus at the hospital. Many curious onlookers gathered at the scene. Very soon, the crowd erupted into chatter.
One of them recognized Danna.
“Hey, isn’t that Danna?”
“It looks like her. I watched her movies before.”
“Danna! Danna!”
The crowd swarmed at her.
Danna covered her face with her hands as the cameras kept flashing.
“Has she committed a crime?”
“I bet she did. Why else would the police be doing here? Pfft! Idols! Who knows how trashy they really are under all that glamor?”
“Well said! This is especially true of female celebrities. They are never as innocent as they claim to be!”
The sarcasm and mockery kept coming. Danna had no way to refute their statements, for she dared not show herself.
She quickened her pace. She hoped to get into the car as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, she knocked into a man, and exposed herself by accident.
“It really is Danna!” someone cried.
“Quick! Take her picture! This is shocking news!” The reporters and paparazzi who had blended in with the crowd shouted excitedly as they snapped one photo after another.
“No! Don’t!” Danna shrieked horrifyingly, but her demand served no purpose.
The crowd was simply unstoppable.
“Back off!” The police fended off the crowd.
The crowd retreated, but their cameras never stopped.
Danna was taken into the police car.
“Danna, why are you arrested?” asked a reporter.
