After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 165 - 161 Medical Disturbance
Chapter 165: Chapter 161 Medical Disturbance fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Early this morning, Grace Willow, just like usual, took a dozen or so fake ticket numbers to sell near the small clinic.
At first, she only dared to sell a few at a time.
But after a while, she found out that it was particularly easy to make money, and no one at the clinic had discovered her.
With this sense of security, Grace began selling them in batches of dozens over the past few days.
Each sold for twenty thousand, and a dozen or more amounted to two or three hundred thousand.
Over the past few days, Grace made a lot of money and was completely overjoyed.
All the money she earned, she transferred to Sophie Parker, waiting for her to turn the million into two million or even more.
She didn’t wait long before she encountered a customer. Just as they were bargaining, a few police officers appeared out of nowhere, pinned her to the ground, and she was stunned by the scene.
When Adam Willow and Amelia Willow arrived at the police station together,
as soon as Grace saw the siblings, she started crying.
"Adam, please save me, I don’t want to go to jail."
Adam comforted his mother a bit and quickly asked the police,
"Officer, have you got the wrong person?
My mom is just an honest housewife; how could she do anything illegal?
Let alone any illegal business."
The police officer taking the statement had a serious expression,
"We don’t arrest people without evidence.
We received a call from the clinic saying there was illegal sale of their registration tickets, amounting to a huge sum."
The Willow siblings were dumbfounded. Amelia immediately thought of the numbers she had given out in class before, could those have been the scalper numbers?
"Mom, didn’t you say those numbers were given to you by Emily Parker?"
Grace stammered.
Just then, Emily Parker, who had just finished giving her statement, walked out of the nearby office.
"Emily Parker!
Did you call the police to have me arrested?
You are so vicious.
If I don’t let Adam be with you, you frame me.
Officer, she has a grudge against me, you must not believe her words."
Upon seeing Emily, Grace furiously charged forward to question her.
Excited Grace was pulled away by a female police officer.
"Emily, my mom didn’t do it on purpose.
Could you do me a favor and withdraw the case this time?"
Adam’s eyes were full of pleading.
"Withdraw the case?
Alright."
Emily agreed promptly.
Both Grace and Amelia breathed a sigh of relief.
"For me to withdraw the case, he must return five times the illegal earnings.
Your mom sold over 50 numbers in total, with an amount involved exceeding a million.
Five times that would be over five million.
You can consider me withdrawing the case after the money is settled at once."
Over five million, this staggering number left the Willow family stunned.
"Emily Parker!
How could you be such a person? This is blatant extortion!"
Amelia gritted her teeth in anger.
"You can choose not to be extorted by me, just prepare for your mom to go to jail.
With that amount involved, she might be sentenced to more than ten years."
Upon hearing that Emily wanted to send her to jail, Grace was so scared her legs went weak.
"Adam, give her the money.
I don’t want to go to jail."
Grace cried with a runny nose and tears streaming down.
"Mom, we don’t have that much money."
Adam was also frightened by this staggering amount.
He really didn’t expect that after Emily became Master Lowe’s apprentice, treatment would become so expensive.
"Get Little Sophie to pay.
Isn’t Little Sophie great at stock trading?
She’s so filial, she will definitely save me."
"Emily, can you please..."
Adam tried to say something, but Emily interrupted him outright,
"I’ve made the terms of withdrawing the case very clear.
When you gather enough money, I will withdraw the case.
Before that, let your mom stay well in detention."
With that, Emily walked out of the police station without looking back.
Behind her came Grace’s loud curses.
An icy smile appeared on Emily’s lips.
She originally didn’t want any more entanglements with the Willow family, but Grace scalped tickets and ruined her reputation, so she couldn’t blame Emily for digging a pit for her to fall into.
Emily thought Adam wouldn’t be able to gather so much money for a while, but surprisingly, just a day later, she received a call from the police station saying the other party had already gathered enough money.
Grace Willow was also bailed out.
Emily was preparing to go to the police station, but as soon as she left the clinic, she was stopped by someone.
As soon as the person saw Emily, they began to cry and tried to push her,
"You bring back my son’s life!"
