CHAPTER 120: CHAPTER 120: FAYE STERLING ARRESTED

Anne walked up to Faye Sterling and said, "Miss Faye Sterling.

You have misused my mentor’s patented technology for your designs. I have submitted the relevant materials to the court and they have been accepted. I hope you take this seriously."

The materials she submitted earlier were not regarding Eleanor Sterling but were accusations against Faye Sterling.

Faye Sterling shuddered violently and took a few steps back.

"No...it’s not true, I didn’t..."

Anne pointed to the Heart of Blue on Shannon Sheffield’s neck and sneered, "You didn’t? This is the best evidence. Moreover, the Sheffield Family just produced those two original design sketches. They can be used as supplemental evidence."

Eleanor Sterling pondered and said, "According to Article 215 of the law, manufacturing someone else’s registered patented product without authorization.

If the circumstances are severe, it shall be punishable by imprisonment of up to three years and shall also be fined."

"Faye Sterling, rest assured." Eleanor Sterling looked at her bloodless face and said, "I will plead with the judge, so you won’t have to stay in jail for too long."

She returned all the words Faye Sterling had said earlier back to her.

Anne gave Eleanor Sterling a thumbs-up, acting sisterly affection? Eleanor’s move was truly impressive.

Earlier when Faye Sterling spoke those words, she had disgusted her terribly. Now, finally, she felt a sense of relief, her whole body eased.

So satisfying!

Faye Sterling was completely stunned, her mind buzzing.

Jail? She was going to jail?

At this moment, another group of officers entered.

The men that Faye Sterling had hired earlier saw them and exclaimed in surprise, "Captain, why are you here?"

The man referred to as the captain said, "You are mistaken. The arrest is not for Eleanor Sterling, but for Faye Sterling."

He walked over to Faye Sterling and said, "Miss Sterling, we have received the arrest warrant issued by the prosecutor’s office. Please come with us to undergo investigation."

At this time, the guests began to react.

"Faye Sterling is going to be arrested?"

"Of course, she’s not Anne’s protégé, yet she dared to use someone else’s patent so boldly. Shouldn’t she be sued and fined?"

"Oh my, is this reversal trying to make me laugh to death?"

"Wow, she has been claiming all along to be Anne’s apprentice and how skilled she was, and now..."

...

Faye Sterling’s eyes filled with panic as she urgently said, "You can’t arrest me! I haven’t committed a crime!"

"Miss Faye Sterling, please cooperate with the investigation, otherwise we will apply for forced execution on the grounds that you refuse to cooperate."

Eleanor Sterling watched coldly. If Faye Sterling could have people come to arrest her, she could do the same—it was merely imitating.

Faye Sterling was in a terrible state.

She turned to Alaric Faulkner, pleading with a choked voice, "Alaric, please save me, I’m truly innocent."

Alaric Faulkner’s gaze remained calm, standing quietly, and he said with a faint smile, "Whether you are innocent or not, the court will decide."

His words meant he wasn’t planning on helping Faye Sterling.

Faye Sterling was greatly shaken, her face full of heartbreak. She looked towards Rosalie Ray and George Sterling, crying even more pitifully.

"Dad, Mom, you must save me. I don’t want to be arrested. You have to think of a way!"

Rosalie Ray was anxious seeing Faye about to be taken away, and she grew even more resentful towards Eleanor Sterling.

She said to George Sterling, "Husband, Faye is about to be taken away."

George Sterling was also very irritable. He glared at Eleanor Sterling and furiously reprimanded, "Eleanor Sterling, Faye is your sister. How can you do this!

If she’s taken away today, how will she face anyone in the future? Faye is supposed to marry into the Faulkner Family.

How could she hold her head high to face anyone!

After spending years abroad, you’ve learned nothing but to be aggressive first. Why is your heart so vicious!"
