CHAPTER 724: CHAPTER 724: THE BEST NEWS

Before this, Nora had been praying silently: no news was the best news.

She picked up the phone, "Any changes?"

On the line, Lily informed her of the guesses she and Yvonne Winslow had made.

"Mrs. Sinclair, Yvonne Shepherd is in the car ahead."

"Screech—" Louis Hayes suddenly hit the brakes, and due to the inertia, Nora’s phone fell under the seat.

Through the gap, a faint glimmer of light could be seen.

Louis didn’t give her a chance to look for the phone, he opened the car door directly and intercepted the police car at the highway gate.

Nora followed closely behind.

"The latest notice from above, Yvonne Shepherd has not been involved in illegal activities, no need for transfer, she can be released without charges."

Louis was negotiating with the leading policeman, evidently, the other party did not believe his words and even saw him as an illegal obstructionist.

"You can contact the Deputy Director to verify if what I am saying is true, Yvonne Shepherd cannot be taken away tonight."

Louis’s attitude was unusually firm.

Unfortunately, the other party wasn’t willing to yield, even bringing out handcuffs.

As things were at an impasse, someone got out of the car, whispered a few words into the ear of the team captain.

Suddenly, the captain’s face changed.

Yvonne Shepherd was allowed to go, and the young policeman who came to report left the original team with her.

However, their next destination wasn’t Corinthia Pier, they needed to go to the police station for registration.

On the way, Nora asked casually, "At this hour, are there still staff?"

"You should wait until eight o’clock tomorrow morning for registration," the young policeman replied.

Upon hearing this, Nora frowned slightly, her eyes showing a hint of anger.

Are you joking with me?

She turned to her left, her voice coolly resonating, saying to the person in the back seat, "Contact your staff, registration must be done tonight."

"This is not within my duties."

At this moment, the young policeman still hadn’t realized the seriousness of the issue.

"If this car reaches the police station, you have an hour to figure something out, if not, the route will deviate in twenty minutes, and you will bear the consequences."

"Are you threatening the police?"

Nora’s brow didn’t relax, her silence was tacit agreement.

At this point, a new route appeared on the navigation.

After a moment of silence, the police finally compromised, "Even if I have the ability to get the relevant personnel to the registration office, it will take time!"

"That’s your problem, deal with it yourself."

Beside her, Yvonne Shepherd yawned daintily, not showing a single ounce of criminal demeanor.

One third of the journey had passed, and Nora, looking through the rearview mirror, saw that the young policeman still hadn’t made a move, directly instructed Louis, "Turn right ahead, onto Corinthia Road, to the pier."

Louis complied.

The person in the back seat panicked, "We must go to the registration office, or else, you’re disrupting official duties, you’ll be in big trouble."

"Then let’s see who ends up in trouble."

Nora’s voice was soft, yet her eyes were devoid of warmth.

At this moment, saving the person was all she could focus on, leaving no room to consider anything else.

The young policeman wanted to say something more but was directly cut off by Nora, "If you utter another word, I can’t guarantee my bodyguard won’t throw you into the sea."

"I forgot to tell you, the person we’re rescuing with Yvonne Shepherd is the head of Sinclair Enterprises. If you have the guts to offend him, you can go ahead and shoot me, if not, then you better figure out a solution quickly."
