"Which ear of yours did you hear me lusting over him? I don't even know his name!" Amelia said angrily.

Patrick said in a serious tone, "I've heard you praise him."

"I..." Amelia stopped for a second and said angrily, "I just said he is matured. How could this be a compliment?"

"Isn't that enough?" Patrick was stubborn.

"You're just against me... ugh!" Amelia's eyes widened. She could not believe that he would suddenly be intimate with her at this place!

Patrick was tall and strong, and his wife was so petite. When other people saw the scene of them hugging each other, they felt a sense of indescribable harmony.

Patrick's overbearing kiss declared his sovereignty to the surroundings as well. This made the desired men and women who were ready to court them stop their move.

A few seconds later, he let go of the woman in his arms. He stared at her blurred eyes and whispered, "Now let's go home with me."

Amelia who was stunned by the kiss subconsciously nodded her head and said, "Okay..."

Then a hubbub was heard from the crowd. "The police is here!"

The club suddenly became a bit chaotic after the shout. A small group of people stood up from the corner. From their pale faces and unfocused pupils, it was likely that they had taken drugs and could not escape.

Patrick was like a parent. He put Amelia in a quiet corner, stared at her eyes, and said seriously, "Wait for me here. I'll pick up Leah from the dance floor."

Amelia nodded and said, "Okay."

As soon as Patrick left, Amelia's heel was hit by someone. She looked back and found that it was the man who asked her if she wanted to take drugs.

"I'm sorry..." After apologizing, the man glided away.

Amelia turned her head back without any further thoughts.

Soon, the situation at the nightclub was controlled by the anti-drug police. Many men and women who had taken drugs were arrested while covering their heads.

Although Amelia looked like a honest girl, the police still did their duty. "Miss, could you please show me your identification card?"

"Okay." When Amelia put her hand into the leather bag, she was stunned. Had she not buttoned her leather bag properly? When did it open?

Although she was suspicious, she still quickly managed to take out her identity card. However, something fell out together with the identity card, and it was some white powder in a transparent plastic bag. The policeman narrowed his eyes and bent down to pick up the things that fell on the ground. After looking at it, he asked Amelia, "Miss, what is this?"

Amelia's face was blank. How could she know what it was?

"Identity card." The police officer said again.

Amelia hurriedly handed over her identity card and then asked uneasily, "Sir, what... is this?"

The policeman turned over his hand and put Amelia's ID card away for the time being. Then he opened a seam in the plastic bag, dipped the powder on his fingertip and licked it on the tip of his tongue. After that, he showed an intriguing expression. "It's drug!"

Amelia's heart clenched and she denied, "It's not mine!"

The policeman took out the handcuffs on his waist with a cold face and show the drug in front of

Amelia's eyes. "Is it yours or not. We'll talk about it when we arrive at the police station!"

Amelia suddenly came up with wisdom out of desperation and hurriedly said, "Police, don't be impulsive. I know who this thing belongs to!"

The police officer responded with a "Hmm?".

Amelia took advantage of this short period of time to search around for the man who had knocked into her previously. However, since that man wanted to frame her, how could he let her to replace him? He must have been hiding somewhere for a while!

Under the police's impatient eyes, Amelia put her hands together and said in frustration, "Just handcuff me..."

The policeman did not say anything more when he saw her give up to struggle. He raised his arm and was about to handcuff her...

Patrick who had brought Leah back, happened to see this scene. He quickly knocked off the police and held Amelia's handcuffs. He shouted in a low voice, "She is my wife. Nobody dares to touch her!"

This tone was too arrogant. The policeman resisted the urge to pull out his gun from his waist and warned coldly, "Whoever stops the police from enforcing the law will be misconduct by criminal responsibility!" Patrick pulled Amelia behind him and confronted the police. "Is she selling sex or paying for an escort? Are you going to bring her to the police station?"

"She didn't involve in prostitution or had an escort," the police officer said in a friendly tone. "It's just that the thing that she hid in her bag is more than enough to make her spend the rest of her life in prison!" Amelia did not want to see Patrick confront with police. So she pulled his coat and motioned him to calm down. "Mr. Hopper, it doesn't matter. I'll go to the police station and explain to the police." Patrick's face was clouded with anxiety. "He said that you hid something? What did you hide?"

When Amelia opened her red lips and spat out the word, Patrick's face changed slightly. Then he said in a low voice, "I see. Don't be afraid. I'll take care of everything."

A faint smile appeared on Amelia's slightly pale face when she heard this "Well, I'll go then. You should send Leah back home first."

Patrick felt gratified and distressed when he saw her still able to stay calm in the face of danger. But he did not know how his words 'don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything' had gave her strength. At the police station.

The police put the inspected drugs in front of Amelia and said, "Where did you buy the drug? Who did you buy it from? Or are you in this industry?"

Amelia retorted excitedly, "As I said, the drug is not mine. It's a man who threw it into my leather bag on purpose!"

"Oh? Did anyone see it at that time?" The police asked.

Amelia thought about it for a while and finally shook her head. Even if someone saw it, who would be willing to help a stranger?

The police believed that drugs had something to do with Amelia but Amelia denied it again. The matter was in a deadlock for a while.

On the other hand, Patrick was in a state of anxiety as he drove Leah back to the Meng's residence.

He suddenly parked his car at a red light intersection. He took out his mobile phone and called Owen. Then he explained in detail that Amelia was suspected of having drug.

Owen's thought this was a serious matter when he heard about it "Which police station was Amelia being sent to?"

Patrick unavoidably frowned and answered, "The one at the west side of the city." "Okay, I'll be right there!" After a pause, Owen did not forget to comfort him. "I know Amelia very well. She must have been framed. I'll go and help her now!"

At the police station in the east of the city.

When Owen appeared in the police station, the policeman who was responsible for interrogating Amelia was taking time out to grab a glass of water.

Then he met Owen.

Owen stepped forward and reached out his hand with an extraordinary bearing. "Hello, Captain Walker."
