Chapter 590 Do You Like Bankruptcy So Much
The two bodyguards didn't follow her into the store; they waited outside.
The truth was, those two were tall and intimidating, and Josephine was afraid they might scare the customers inside.
When they heard the commotion inside, the bodyguards went in, and the police arrived as well.
They weren't taken away, so they called Stuart.
Stuart got nervous and first asked if Josephine was okay.
Hearing that no one had touched her and she was just taken in for questioning, he breathed a sigh of relief and rushed over.
Kismet was taken in and was still yelling, not allowing anyone to touch her.
The two female officers didn't tolerate her behavior and directly twisted her arm to take her away.
She was still shouting, demanding a lawyer, saying she would sue Isadora and the staff.
When Stuart arrived, Josephine and Kathy had already finished giving their statements and were waiting.
Stuart walked over quickly, "Josephine!"
"I'm fine." Josephine walked up to him, reassuring him, "Don't worry, I was just watching from the side."
"Then why did you come over? Are you really okay?"
"Really, I'm fine." Josephine looked back at Kathy, "If you don't believe me, ask Kathy."
Kathy smiled, "It's nothing, but I think you might need to avenge us."
Stuart asked, "What exactly happened?"
Kathy explained the whole situation without exaggeration or omission.
Josephine tugged at Kathy, "Kathy, call Ulysses and ask him to come over."
"Really?" Kathy smiled, "You really want him to come?"
Josephine said, "His girlfriend is in trouble; shouldn't he come to support her?"
Just then, a man stormed in, shouting, "Where's my daughter! What have you done to my daughter!"
Someone led him inside, and within two minutes, Zander arrived as well.
Although he was also anxious, he spoke politely and warmly.
Seeing Josephine and Kathy staring at him, Stuart couldn't help but ask after he left, "Is he that good-looking?"
Josephine held back a laugh. "Do you know who he is?"
When the Penrose family had issues, Stuart had a project with him, so it was natural that he didn't handle it personally.
So it was normal that he didn't recognize Zander.
He shook his head, "No, who is he?"
"He's Ulysses' girlfriend's father." Kathy sent a message to Ulysses and then said, "The girl inside is his girlfriend and her mother."
"This..." Stuart quickly asked, "Not the arrogant one, right?"
"What are you thinking?" Josephine said, "Does Ulysses have such poor taste?"
"That's good." Stuart said, "Since it's not the arrogant one, Ulysses really needs to come and stand up for her."
In the meantime, Stuart had someone investigate Raymond.
It turned out he was involved in the Penrose Group's bankruptcy.
Moreover, his daughter had just insulted Josephine, completely unaware of the danger.
They could tell what kind of parents they were by looking at their children.
When that man came in just now, his attitude was exactly like his daughter's.
Stuart made a call, and when he returned, Ulysses had arrived. "Kathy, Auntie? Why are you all here?"
Ulysses was startled when Kathy called him to the police station, thinking something had happened to her.
Only after arriving did he realize Stuart and Josephine were also there.
It was quite a scene.
Kathy briefly explained the situation again.
Hearing that someone bullied Isadora, Ulysses' eyes turned red.
He was about to go inside, but Stuart stopped him.
"Ulysses, you mentioned to your dad about marrying into your girlfriend's family, saying material things are external and can't be taken with you when you die. But what will you do if something like this happens?"
"I believe the police will give them justice."
"That's right, we trust the government." Stuart said, "But if the Carter Group goes against the Penrose Group, what will you do?"
Ulysses fell silent.
Kathy then understood why Josephine wanted Ulysses to come.
Josephine also said, "Ulysses, sometimes we may value material things lightly and emotions heavily, which is fine. But if you want to protect your family from being wronged, you need power."
Stuart said, "Exactly. In situations like today, that person might be punished, but what about afterward? Can the police follow them all the time?"
Ulysses was silent for a few seconds and said, "Uncle, Auntie, Kathy, I understand."
Josephine said, "Then let's go back."
The three of them got into the car, and Josephine said, "In situations like today, it's not appropriate to meet them rashly. We should visit and thank them later."
Stuart hadn't met Isadora, but hearing what Kathy said about the recent events, he had a good impression of her. "She's a good girl."
Ulysses waited outside alone, and after almost half an hour, Isadora finally came out.
Her family of three came out first, and before Ulysses could call out, the Carters also came out.
Kismet's father directly called out to the Penroses, "Stop!"
Zander looked at him, "Mr. Carter, what else do you want?"
They had already settled the matter inside.
The store clerk and Josephine could both testify that Kismet was in the wrong, and she was caught hitting someone by the police.
If the Penrose family insisted on pursuing it, Kismet would be fined and detained.
But they had privately settled it.
Now that they were outside, Kismet's father's attitude had changed.
He said, "I hope you keep today's matter to yourselves. It's just kids fighting, why make such a fuss!"
He felt embarrassed.
Kismet also said, "Exactly! Why come all the way here? In the end, you can't do anything to me!"
Isadora said, "We haven't even left the police station! Are you trying to go back in with such big talk?"
Kismet angrily said, "Who are you cursing?"
Isadora said, "You. What? Do you want to hit me?"
Kismet raised her hand to hit.
But a tall boy walked over, grabbed her arm, and threw her aside. "What are you doing?"
Raymond quickly supported Kismet, "Is there no law here, hitting people like this?"
Ulysses coldly looked at him, "She started it, I was just defending myself."
Isadora said excitedly, "Why are you here?"
Ulysses walked to her side and asked, "Are you okay?"
Seeing how close they were, it was clear their relationship was special.
Seeing Ulysses tall and handsome, Kismet was extremely jealous.
She said, "Isadora, just wait, my dad will definitely avenge me!"
Raymond also said, "Mr. Penrose, you've been quite arrogant lately. If something happens to your company, don't blame me."
Before anyone else could speak, Ulysses said, "Bankruptcy? If you like it so much, I'll give it to you."
