Chapter 154
Stephen stared straight at the ceiling. “Snow was arrested. She’s committed so many crimes.”
“Huh?” George thought he heard wrongly. “Is that all? Did you forget who you are? You’re a young mogul from Metropolis. It’ll be easy as pie for you to get her out!”
At those words, Stephen’s eyes instantly lit up. “That’s right! I can save her!”
However, he soon thought of something else.
“She seems to be tied to an unsolved case from three years ago. Her friend killed a family of thirteen before committing suicide.”
George agreed that that did complicate things.
“Although it’s problematic, it’s still resolvable. Your family can get her out as long as she cooperates.”
Those words completely awakened Stephen.
That was right!
He still had the Quinns! With the Quinns‘ support, freeing Snow would be easy.
He immediately called Simon.
“Dad, I need a favor!”
Simon was confused. “What is it? Did something happen in Aqua City?”
“No,” Stephen said. “Aqua City is doing well. It’s Snow.”
“Hm?” Simon asked, “What happened?”
“She’s been arrested.”
“What?” Simon was stunned. “Who dares to touch the Quinns‘ daughter in law?”
That was blatant disrespect to the Quinns!
“Snow has committed fraud before, and she also stole company secrets and harmed people. She might be connected to a major case too. Dad, can you help me get her out?”
Simon was stunned. He did not expect Snow to have committed so many crimes.
His son had fallen in love with a criminal. If such news got out, the Quinns‘ reputation
would be ruined.
“Do you really want to save her?” Simon said, “Maybe you should give up on her. She’s not worthy of the Quinns.

“No!” Stephen shouted. “She must have had her reasons. Even if she has done something wrong before, she’s changed now. Dad, please help her!”
Simon sighed inwardly. Stephen had fallen deep and hard. It seemed he had no choice but to help her.
“Very well. I’ll make sure she’s released.”
Although Snow had committed many crimes, as long as he made a single phone call, she could be released on the day itself.
In the station, Liam was interrogating Snow.
Snow had decided that there was nothing she wanted to hide. She revealed the truth regarding the case three years ago as well as all the wrongdoings she had committed over the years.
Liam had everything recorded.
Just then, he received a call that was made on Simon’s behalf.
“Release Snow Green after the investigation.”
It was a simple statement, but it felt like a heavy weight pressing on his chest.
The Quinns were trying to protect Snow!
Liam sighed in frustration. With his strength, he had no power to resist them. He had no choice but to release her as the phone call ordered.
As he placed his phone back into his pocket, his fingers grazed a card.
He took it out and saw that it was Oliver’s business card.
Liam froze.
It was the card that Ethan had tossed at him when he left the villa. Ethan had said that if Snow tried to leave, he could give Oliver a call.
“Could Mr. Rivers have known that the Quinns would protect Snow, so he prepared a plan for me in advance?”
Liam was extremely excited. He quickly dialed Oliver’s number.
The call connected quickly.
“Hello? Who is this?” Oliver was confused by the unknown number calling him..
“My name is Liam Yates. I got your number from Mr. Rivers.”
Oliver was startled and almost dropped his phone.

Mr. Rivers?
Ethan!
“Do you need something?” Oliver’s voice was tense.
If Ethan had someone call him, it must be something significant. A single mistake could lead to deadly consequences.
Liam said, “Snow is about to be freed, thanks to the Quinns.”
Oliver waited, but Liam did not continue. He asked, “Is that it?”
“Yes.”
Oliver was speechless.
What did that mean?
Why did Ethan suddenly pass him this message?
