The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride
Chapter 356 The Favored One

Lisa stayed quiet on the side.

Frank and Laura were arguing, but Laura always had the last word at home. She was strong-willed and went straight to the police station after leaving the hospital. "Is anyone here? I need to report a crime," she cried out, clutching her waist in pain as soon as she arrived.

An officer noticed her nosebleed had stopped, but her face was still swollen and bloodstained. Clearly, she had been beaten. "What happened to you?" he asked urgently. Seeing the police, Laura burst into tears. "Officer, please help us. You have to stand up for my son and me."

"Sit down and tell us what happened," the officer said, offering her a chair.

Sebastian stepped out to check some files and noticed the blood on Laura's face. It was the first time someone had come to his department looking so badly beaten.

Laura sat down and began, "My son Frank and I were beaten. The person who hit us is named Patrick, along with his family."

Sebastian's body tensed up. His heart raced.

"I took my daughter-in-law, Lisa, to the hospital for a prenatal checkup, and we had an argument there," Laura said.

Sebastian remembered Molly telling him last night that she would accompany Vera to the hospital for a checkup today. He thought, 'The location matches.'

Laura continued crying, "Then three people showed up, two women and one man, all young. They beat me and almost killed me."

Sebastian put down the files in his hand. The number of people matched, too.

"The pregnant woman seemed to be Patrick's wife. She knocked me down, then a man punched me, leaving me covered in blood. I can't go on living. They kicked me and almost killed me. Another woman insulted me, saying things so awful that I wanted to die when I recalled them. She told me to give my son a child."

Only one person in the world could say such things-the outspoken, unfiltered Molly!

The officer said, "This is the Economic Crime Division. You should go to the public..."

Sebastian interrupted his subordinate in time. He handed the files to his subordinate, "Paul, handle these files. I'll take care of this."

"Yes, Mr. Chase." Officer Paul stood up and introduced Sebastian to Laura, "This is Mr. Chase. You can speak directly to him."

"Mr. Chase, please help us get justice," Laura cried again.

Sebastian pointed to his office. "Come with me."

They followed Sebastian into his office.

Sebastian didn't need to ask any questions; he started rubbing his temples.

Not even five minutes had passed when Molly cheerfully walked into the police station with a sun umbrella. "Is everyone still busy? Not off work yet?"

"Mr. Chase is in his office dealing with an assault case. The person looks pretty bad, with blood all over their face. You should wait outside for a bit," Sam reminded her.

Hearing Molly's voice, Sebastian shouted from his office, "Get in here!"

Molly looked at Sam and said, "You better go. Sebastian is looking for you. He doesn't sound happy."

"Molly!"

Molly glanced at the door, curious. "Is Sebastian calling me?"

She knocked on the door. "Sebastian, I'm here."

Opening the door, she saw Laura, Frank, and Lisa, whom she had just met. They were shocked to see her.

Molly looked at Sebastian, who was glaring at her, then at Laura, Frank, and Lisa on the sofa. She quickly pieced together what Sam had said earlier.

No explanation was needed. Molly got it instantly.

She straightened up, entered Sebastian's office, closed the door, and locked it.

"So, you're here to report a crime? And you came to my brother to do it?" Molly asked.

Laura was stunned. She thought in shock, 'How could she be related to a police officer?'

Molly walked over. "Do you think we beat and insulted you in public for no reason?" She stood in front of Laura. "You walked right into the trap and dared to come to my brother, Sebastian, to report it? He hates people who abuse their daughters-in-law and bully their wives the most. Didn't you get beaten enough earlier? Do you want him to punch you more now?"

Laura and Frank were already panicking. They didn't dare to fake cry anymore. "Even if you're his sister, you still have to go to jail if you break the law."

Sebastian asked, "Molly, what happened?"

Sebastian knew that Molly wouldn't start trouble on her own; something must have provoked them.

Molly glanced disdainfully at Laura and Frank and summarized to Sebastian in one sentence, "Even animals know to protect their children. They're worse than animals."

"Get out," Sebastian said, kicking Molly out of the office again. She sat outside, not worried at all about going to jail. With Sebastian around, as long as she hadn't killed anyone, he could handle it. However, Molly still took out her phone and called Vera and Randall.

"Vera, what are you doing?" she asked.

"Having Beef Burrito and burgers. What is the matter?" Vera replied. At the Olteran family restaurant, there were several takeout boxes and a few bottles of Sprite on the table. Drinking too much Sprite could make people's noses feel tingly, and Shawn loved that feeling. For a moment, he felt young again, like he was in his thirties, eating street food.

"Vera went out and brought back so much good food. Next time you go for a checkup, I'll go with you."

Since it was the weekend, everyone in the Olteran family was there except for Molly.

Vera was drinking freshly squeezed juice, while Shawn and Cindy were drinking Sprite. Vincent, Patrick, and Randall were drinking beer.

Molly was getting hungry just hearing about it. If she had known, she would have gone home too. "You know what? I just saw that mother and son from the hospital this morning. They came to report a crime to Sebastian and got called into his office."

Vera hadn't had anything spicy in a long time, and suddenly eating something a bit spicy made her nose run. Patrick quickly handed her a tissue.

Vera wiped her nose briefly and said to Molly, "Isn't that asking for trouble?"

Reporting anyone to Sebastian could work, but not Molly. Because, in Sebastian's heart, Molly was the only one and the favored one.

Molly stood in a shady spot outside the police station. "Exactly, they are unlucky. Sebastian has a law degree. They might not get me in trouble, but Sebastian might get them in trouble instead." Vera said, "That could really happen."
