Rich In a Brief

"Let's see how your family and friends respond to this problem."

..........................

In her study, Lia wore a dress patterned with white-blue flowers. He was checking a document on his desk. The woman looks very busy, while Luis usually spends most of his time playing games at home.

Moments later, Lia's phone rang. Lia frowned and grabbed her phone to see the identity of the caller. But apparently, he got a call from an unknown number.

But this is his personal cell phone, only a few people know.

After weighing for a while, he finally picked up the phone call. "Who is this?"

Zizi Vose's voice sounded from the other end of the phone. "Hello. Is this Lia Wijaya? Your friend, Luis Nardo, was arrested for prostitution. It takes a 750-dollar bail to get him out of jail."

Hearing that, Lia's face became grim. "Prostitution? It feels impossible for Luis to be a PSK unless he has a strange hobby. He's definitely his client."

Lia's face turned cold. "We just met two days ago, and he's already making trouble" he thought.

"Can I hire a lawyer to sue him?" He took a deep breath. "In my opinion, his actions violated the rules and had a negative impact on the reputation of the city" he added.

"Huh?" Zizi who heard his words was surprised.

"Luis Nardo will be detained for 15 days if no one releases him on bail" the police said.

However, Lia remained in her stance and replied coldly, "I'll hire a lawyer to sue her tomorrow."

"Lia! You can't treat me like this!" Luis quickly grabbed the phone from Zizi's hand. If their conversation continues, the man could be in jail for years.

Lia replied coldly, "Is your lust so great? Can't you control yourself?"

"Listen to me, Lia. It's just a misunderstanding. I was just walking outside. I really don't ..." Luis almost cried because he never thought it would be like this.

"Ha! Just walking? Then why did the police arrest you?"

"I told you this was just a misunderstanding! I had dinner last night and ..."

Before she could finish her words, Lia interrupted her, "And you became lustful? That's funny, Luis. I'm not gonna let you get away with it."

After listening to his words, fear possessed Luis. He started to stutter, "L-Lia! Believe that! I'm..."

Lia said mercilessly, "Be good in prison. I'll beat you up if you try to escape!" After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Lia was silent for a moment. He tried to refocus on the documents before him but failed.

Normally, he wouldn't care because it wasn't his business. But, this time, he couldn't stop thinking about it. An angry feeling arose within him.

"ah! “

The more time passed, the more he felt angry. Lia grabbed the teddy bear beside her and punched her.

Meanwhile, at the police station, Zizi glances at Luis and sneers at him.

"It seems you are out of luck. My advice, start thinking about what will happen after you come out. Your reputation is ruined" he said.

Overwhelmed with sadness, Luis said, "I just happened to pass by ..."

Zizi replied with a scornful tone, "Ha! So you're sorry now?"

"I'm so sorry. I shouldn't go out for a walk at night" he said slowly.

Zizi hit the table and snorted in annoyance. "You should have thought of the consequences before deciding to sell yourself."

"I really don't ..."

"Then, how did you end up here?" zizi Reply. He waved the phone in his hand and added, "Do you want to try it again? If no one pays bail, you'll be held for 15 days in jail."

"It feels like prison is safer for me." Luis nodded while reassuring himself. He did not want to make Lia even more upset.

"You sure?" Zizi was surprised by his words. Normally, people would not give up until someone was willing to release them from prison.

"Yes." Yeah."

Without a word, Zizi waved his hand to a policeman, Joe Owen, and called out to him.

"Joe, take Mr. Nardo to the holding room."

He thought for a moment before adding, "Find an empty holding room. Leave him alone."

"Don't tell me I don't care about you, Mr. Nardo." After patting Luis on the shoulder, Zizi left him.

"You don't know when to shut up, do you?" Zizi sneered and handed him a thin blanket. "It's to repay your kindness for saving a child" he added.

"Thank you!"

Luis smiled and took the blanket. He could faintly smell the scent of perfume as it enveloped his body with the blanket.

Just then, a question came to Zizi's mind. "How's the kid doing?" ask Zizi.

"He's fine. A specialist is already hired to perform follow-up care. He may have recovered by now" Luis replied.

"Can you accompany me to visit him someday?"

"What?"

"Come on! It's time for you to go to jail."

The next morning, Zizi arrives in the holding room to take Luis away. The sound of his shoe-rights clanging was heard along the corridor.

"Miss Vose? Miss Vose!"

A police officer, Maxie Brown, approached Zizi and pulled him aside.

Zizi frowned dryly and asked, "What's wrong? Everything's fine, isn't it?" He suspects someone may have paid bail to release Luis.

Maxie rubbed her nose in embarrassment and whispered, "We caught it wrong ..."

Zizi's face looked irritated. "Misgotten? Didn't you say there was strong evidence? You're kidding me, aren't you?"

This is not something that can be used as a joke. They will all be punished if they make a mistake. Clumsy, Maxie tried to explain, "This morning, the Chairman checked the body camera and interviewed the woman again. In conclusion, we caught the wrong guy."

A feeling of anger instantly pervaded Zizi and he cursed, "Damn! It doesn't make sense!"

"I think they should have checked it early. What did they do yesterday?" mused.

"We must release him immediately .." muttered Maxie.
