Chapter 1002: 471 Marriage Alliance_1 Chapter 1002: 471 Marriage Alliance_1 Upon leaving the detention center, Secretary Baker transmitted the recording via mobile phone.
“Mr.
Cosmo, how confident are you about this case?”
The news of Ms.
Aria’s imprisonnt in Pethkids has been kept under wraps in Lostswa, for otherwise, she and the entire Aria family would beco a laughingstock throughout Lostswa.
It was thanks to Jason that Matthew Aria learned of the matter.
At first, when Jason called, Matthew Aria did not believe him, taking him to be a scamr.
Vanessa Aria has always been known for her sophistication and grace, a model among the well-known ladies of Lostswa.
...
It was unlikely for her to commit such a foolish act as intentionally hurting others.
Not to ntion Peter Aria was also in Pethkids.
His reputation was huge, and any wealthy family had to give him so face.
It was even less likely that he would stand by and watch his own sister fall into trouble.
But when his multiple calls to Vanessa Aria ended in failure, he had to believe it.
From Jason’s mouth, he learned the ins and outs of what had happened.
Overnight, Vanessa Aria had been transford from an assailant into a perfect victim.
Matthew Aria was furious.
The Pethkids Police Departnt was outright challenging his authority and slapping the face of the Aria family.
Although with a single word from him, Vanessa Aria could naturally be released without charges.
But by doing so, he would be handing over power to others.
Especially at this crucial mont, he could not afford to make any mistakes.

After much thought, he concluded that this was an attack launched by a competitor, and Vanessa Aria, who knew nothing, had been made a pawn.
Anyway, Vanessa Aria must be released without charges.
Neither the Aria family nor he could afford to lose her.
Hence, he hired attorney Cosmo.
The man had an excellent track record arguing criminal cases and rarely lost, holding equal command in legal world with Richard Linggo, known as the Yin-Yang of the law field.
“The breakthrough lies with Mr.
Zhou.
As long as he withdraws the lawsuit, the criminal case will shift to a civil compensation case.
Miss Aria will escape criminal punishnt, but she may have a case record,” analyzed attorney Cosmo.
After all, it was an undeniable fact that she had injured soone.
Even if the plaintiff withdrew the lawsuit, considering the tough stance of the Pethkids Police Departnt now, it might not be easy to get off the hook.
“Mr.
Cosmo, I’ll have to trouble you on this.”
“Mr.
Aria trusts , and I will certainly strive to do my best,” he promised.
After hanging up the phone, Secretary Baker called Matthew Aria to report on the progress.
“Who is in charge of the Pethkids Police Departnt?” Matthew Aria asked.
Secretary Baker rapidly updated his internal information: “Madon Linggo, who is currently a major criminal investigation captain of the Cichardwood District in Pethkids.
Miss Aria was personally arrested by him, and he also personally interrogated her.
Madon Linggo once served at Harvey Chambers’s base.
He retired five years ago, and then entered the Lostswa judicial system.
He was transferred to Pethkids two years ago.”
Matthew Aria looked surprised: “One of Cello Cook’s people?”
Cello Cook has always been the object of enticent and flattery by the various powers of Lostswa.
This man has always adhered to the doctrine of golden an, maintaining a balance among the different factions.
However, due to an accidental incident, this balance was broken, and Cello Cook beca the enemy of all.
If this wolf fell, a lurking group of foxes would rush up without hesitation to rip him apart, leaving nothing behind.
Even in this careful period, these old foxes still couldn’t find any opportunity.
Actually, Matthew Aria admired Cello Cook.
This strategy of taking the middle way was not sothing anyone could wield.
Apart from a strong background, it required an extraordinary intelligence that the average person could not attain.
Since his father’s death, the Aria family had been keeping a low profile and living their days rely maintaining appearances without real power.
He had been taught by his mother to abide by the rules, practice humility, and get by day by day.
The Aria family was just diocrely moving forward.
Although it was not as glorious as it used to be, at least it maintained its position without problems.
But after a lengthy period, he couldn’t help but feel dissatisfied.
He had thought that if he could form a cooperation with the Cooks, it would be an excellent way to break the current balance.
But surprisingly, it was the Cooks who made the first move against him.
Matthew Aria was nearly angry enough to spit blood.
Was this a signal that Cello Cook started to settle accounts?
Ever since, he had never offended Cello Cook, so how did this fire end up burning him?
Suddenly, the door to the study was knocked.
A Young Lady peeked in, “Dad, dinner is ready.”
Matthew Aria looked a little impatient, “Okay, I got it.”
Right now, the Aria family didn’t know about what happened to Vanessa Aria in Pethkids.
He chose not to tell them in order to avoid adding worries to the won of the family, especially his mother, who was too old to stand shocks.
“Where is mother?” He did not see Madam at the dining table, so Matthew Aria asked subconsciously.
