In fact, it was uncommon for them to be taken to the police station for this kind of pub fighting. It could be said that such a thing was quite common, and it had always happened in that kind of place. However, a customer saw that Armand got beaten up too badly, that was why he called the police.
And now, the manager and the two security guards, and Armand, were being questioned by the police and giving their statements.
As they went into the police station, they saw Armand sitting over there. There was blood on his body, and the wound on his head was roughly bandaged. Loredana frowned and thought, ‘He even had blood on his injuries, is he hurt badly?’
She raised her head and looked at Cormac.
Cormac held her hand and walked over.
Armand raised his head and saw them walking towards him. He turned his head in another direction, not wanting them to see his wounds.
But what he didn’t know was, when he raised his head, they had already seen the wound on his face. Cormac went to handle the bail, and Loredana also did not ask him why he got into a fight in the first place. She only asked if his injuries were serious or not.
Armand said, “It’s not serious. Just some small injuries.”
The black and blue bruises on the corner of his eyes were still there, and he still claimed that he was alright?
“Later when we get out from here, you should go and have a check-up in the hospital,” Loredana said.
“I’m really fine. The wounds were all taken care of.”
“Even if you feel fine, you should still go and have a check-up,” Loredana said seriously.
Armand lowered his head and remained silent.
Both parties were responsible for this pub brawl. After mediation, both sides decided to not hold each other accountable and accepted the settlement. They could leave the police station after the guarantor signed the papers.
When they came out of the police station, only then Loredana dared to ask, “Was it because of Theresa?”
“Don’t mention anything about her to me. From today onwards, I have nothing to do with her.” Armand walked away alone and did not get into Cormac’s car.
“Where are you going?” Loredana was worried about him.
Obviously. he was still disgruntled.00000000000000
Armand had no idea. He had nowhere to go. Where could he go in this condition?
“Go to the villa,” Loredana said.
If Theresa saw what he’d gotten himself into, she might be soft and willing to be honest with him.
If he was able to accept being childless, they wouldn’t all have to suffer.
Armand lowered his head and kept quiet.
He didn’t know what Loredana thought. Did he want Theresa to pity him?
He didn’t want Theresa to see him in such a mess.
“No, there are too many people at the villa. I’ll go to Boyce and stay at his house for a few days. I’ll go home when I’m better. And don’t say anything to Theresa about me. I don’t want her to feel like I can’t live without her. I … am still Armand after today.”
When he finished, he walked away.
Loredana wanted to stop him. She was worried about him.
Cormac took her hand and shook his head at her, “Let him be. He’ll be fine once he gets over this.”
There had to be a transition period.
Loredana listened to him and didn’t continue to persuade Armand or call him back.
He was alone with his wounds, like an abandoned child, alone and helpless.
It was worrisome.
In the Miller’s house….
Officer Miller called Boyce just to investigate his case. Now Declan and Old Mr. Bailey were in trouble and had no time for Boyce’s case. At this juncture, Officer Miller used his connections to get Boyce out of trouble.
It was all made-up originally. If Old Mr. Bailey had not been arrested and this incident had not happened, he might have faked some evidence of Boyce’s bribery to frame him.
Luckily, the Bailey family fell quickly. They didn’t push it too far. There was much to work with.
So, it was quickly solved.
To celebrate, Officer Miller invited Boyce to his house for drinks.
After a few drinks, Officer Miller asked, “When are you going to get married to your girlfriend?”
Boyce paused as he held his glass. And then he raised his head and drank his wine and said, “We broke up.”
He didn’t want to explain it. In fact, they had never been in love at all, and it was all rumored due to that incident.
Last time, they came to Miller’s house as boyfriend and girlfriend in disguise as well.
Officer Miller frowned, “That girl is nice, isn’t she? Did you bully her?”
Wendy heard her father’s words as she brought up the food and said, “How could Boyce be that kind of person? The fact that they broke up only means they weren’t meant to be.” Officer Miller glanced at his daughter, “You stay out of it.”
“It’s okay. Wendy’s right.” Boyce wasn’t even sure if he had a crush on Jasmine.
He just felt somewhat uncomfortable with her sudden disappearance from his world and felt as if a lot of things were missing.
Wendy sat down next to him, “Boyce, don’t drink too much.” Then she looked at Officer Miller and said with a complaining tone, “Dad, even though you’re happy, you can’t make him drink too much.” Officer Miller raised an eyebrow and said, “I’m your dad, right?”
Wendy nodded, “Of course.”
“Why do I feel that you are better to Boyce? Why don’t you care about me?” Officer Miller looked at his daughter.
He knew his daughter’s feelings.
That was also why he made so much effort to help Boyce.
He knew that his daughter was divorced and that it was not very likely for her to be with Boyce, so he had to be very good to Boyce.
If he was willing to be with his daughter, he wouldn’t feel too guilty to him.
And maybe Boyce could accept his daughter for his sake.
He was selfish.
