Everyone turned their heads around and saw that a man in a suit had just gotten out of a car from not far away, and he was walking slowly toward them. The man was dignified and mighty, and he had two followers following behind him. The two followers were wearing glasses with golden frames and they were also carrying file folders in their hands. Even someone who did not know these three people were able to distinguish at a glance that they were big shots. What did that big shot say? Vireo was his brother? Many onlookers were confused. The Payne sisters, as well a s their parents, were even more confused a s they looked at that man who was slowly walking toward them.
The second Payne sister, Ashnah, has the sharpest eyes. "Hey, Chloe, isn't this the man we saw at our brother's house the day before yesterday?”
"That's right. It is that man, but he seemed more of a dignified air to him today. Also, why did he say that our brother is his brother? How ridiculous!" Chloe immediately said.
As soon as Chloe said that, the police officer next to her suddenly asked, "Miss Payne, didn't you say just now that the director of South City's Ford Group is your brother's friend?"
Chloe nodded. "That's right! Mister Ford is our brother's friend. Not only is he our brother's friend, but he is also the most powerful—"
Before Chloe finished her words, the police officer cut her off. "Then why don't you know who Mister Ford is?"
The police were not idiots. They were able t o tell what was going on and were incredibly clear about that. However, since the adopted son did not say anything as he was saving face, and the Payne family had yet broken any laws, all the police could do was anxiously watch on. That was because they were unable to handle the dispute within a family, much less use the law to judge the dispute involving familial ties. It s o happened that Mister Ford had appeared at that moment. He was obviously the most suitable person to redress the balance and handle such a case related to family disputes.
The few police officers were looking at the entire Payne family with contempt.
However, as expected of the Payne family, they had always been used to having the wind at their backs and also being bossy. Back then when they were still in their small county, almost everyone was at their mercy. Later on, when their son went to the provincial capital, the Payne family was able to achieve great gains every time they went to the provincial capital. The Payne family had summed up some tricks that would guarantee their success. Firstly, they had to control the adopted son of the Payne family, Vireo. Secondly, they had to b e crafty and flexible in trimming their sails. It was not as if the Payne sisters, as well as their parents, were unable to tell that the police were treating them with contempt. They simply did not care. What they wanted was to seize the opportunity immediately!
