The crowd immediately split from the middle as the police officers arrived on the scene to unravel the chaos that had erupted.

In their efforts to restore order, they quickly assessed the situation and decided to take Tony into custody, detaining him for his aggressive behavior and the aggression he had displayed.

One of the detectives took charge of the investigation and began to question the witnesses, including the restaurant staff, patrons, and even some of Artis's employees who were present.

The atmosphere was quite tense, and the other officers separated Tony and Artis, holding them both by their hands to restrain them.

One of the officers announced,

"I am Detective Rodriguez of the LD Police Department, and we will hold a small investigation. I request you all to co-operate and answer honestly."

Saying this, detective Rodriguez approached a witness,

"Can you tell me what happened here? Start from the beginning."

The man nervously scratched his head before answering;

"Well,

    As soon as Artis gave this warning, an evil smile appeared on Chad's face. This is exactly what he wanted, to show Scarlet the over- protective and agressive side of Artis by provoking him. He said with a smirking,"Oh easy there, Artis. We are just having a friendly dinner, you don't need to get all worked up for no reason. I mean, I know that you are a little possessive but come on, you should at least allow Scarlet to have a social life. Too much jealousy is not healthy, you know?" Scarlet was shocked, as she had never expected that Artis would be so possesive that he would openly warn Chad to not do anything inappropriate. However, she felt like he was not saying all this because he loved her so much, but because he was being too jealous. Somewhere, he had shown everyone that their marriage was on the rocks and embarrassed her even further. This is when Artis spoke up, "I am not possesive! And why would I be jealous of you? I don't have any problem with her social life, I

    "If you really think that your husband is nothing more than a bankrupt loser, then I'll show you who you have really married! I had hidden the reality from you for so long, because I wanted to protect you…"Each sentence that he said was full of his pain as he spoke,"But I can't keep it hidden anymore, I can't torture myself with the worry of whether or not you would even want the real me."Artis was completely unaware of onlookers who had gathered there, as well as the bewildered glances they were exchanging. He continued to speak, "I am Artis Hardy, who is the new owner of Texter Technologies, who has recently acquired the Smith Restaurant Group, and a number of other financial holdings and majority stakes. Just this morning, I spent nineteen million dollars to get new luxury cars for my employees, okay! So don't you dare say, ever again, that you married a man who can't give you money!"A hush fell over the restaurant waiting room as he spilled the truth, and Scarlet's expressio

    Artis tried to answer them patiently,"Mr and Mrs Silverman, I accept -""Don't you dare say a word! As soon as Scarlet wakes up, I will have the divorce papers made, and I will make her sign them anyhow. I can't let my daughter stay in this dangerous marriage anymore!"Mark roared, making Artis quiet as soon as he had started to speak.Hena had started to cry loudly by now, and seeing her in tears, Mark's anger rose even more."This is not acceptable! Just wait until she divorces you, then I will sue you until you have no penny left!" Just as the tension between Artis and Scarlet's parents reached a critical point, the hospital's automatic doors slid open, revealing Samuel Holt's imposing figure. His mere presence made the heated argument to come to a halt, and everyone looked at him with confusion and anticipation. Even the hospital staff and visitors cast curious glances, as Samuel's reputation as a wealthy and influential man was known to the whole town. Obviously, Mark and He

    Two men came rushing into the plush carpeted office of the man, but they stopped abruptly, right before his chair. Instead of saying something, the two of them started to exchange glances, as if waiting for the other one to speak first.After a few seconds, the man yelled;"Hey! Are you fuckers here to waste my time?!" "No, n-no Bo- Boss… actually, actually -""You either spit up the information right now, or I'll chop off your tongues right now and make sure you aren't capable of saying anything ever again."Hearing this, they both spoke up at the same time, their voices overlapping;"Boss! Actu- actually, Aaron and his gang have been caught-""Damn that bastard!"___At the CUNY Plaza, Artis Hardy stood with an imposing presence, surrounded by the bikers who had been brought in, bound and subdued by Holt's men. The atmosphere tense as Artis confronted the bikers, roaring again;"Which one of you bastards stabbed her, don't you have any tongues in your mouths!"The unexpected roar

    Within ten minutes, Lucas Johnson, the man responsible for ordering the attack on him and Scarlet, had been brought in and thrown at Artis' feet. And after Artis had finally cornered him, he wasn't about to let him slip away.He glared at Lucas, his voice cutting through the tense silence. "You've got one chance, Lucas. Tell me, why did you dare to attack me and Scarlet? Your men will tell you how I can expertly extract information, so don't even think about acting smart."Surprisingly enough, Lucas gave in earlier than Aaron. Instead of being unwilling to give away information, he was extra talkative and too eager to prove that he was innocent;"I'll tell you! Just spare my necka and I'll give you all the answers you need. It was Jenny Curtin, she wanted me to rough you up-""Jenny?! Why?" Artis demanded."She just told me that you were a fraud who was jumping around on borrowed money and wanted me to teach you a lesson.

    Artis had barely settled down, managing to calm his nerves as Mark approached Artis with a stern expression. His harsh voice jolted him as he shouted;"You! This has gone far enough. You will sign those divorce papers right now."Artis was aback by the demand, and he asked;"Excuse me?"Mark's disdain for Artis reflected through his words, as his attitude was full of snobbery;"You, with your common and poor background, have done nothing but tarnish our family's name. Scarlet deserves better than this.If you had not been in the scene, I would have given my daughter what she deserves, much earlier in her life.But again it's not that late even now."Artis felt the weight of Mark's accusations;"Mr. Silverman, regardless of my finances, my love for Scarlet is genuine. I won't abandon her when she needs me."Mark scoffed;"Needs you? Why would my daughter ever need a rascal like you? The only reason you are even here is because the hospital staff couldn't legally proceed with the treat

    CHAPTER 138 END

    Scarlet was still struggling to comprehend the situation as she returned to the room, and Artis could tell by the ashen look on her face that she had just received some major news.But before he could ask about it, they were interrupted unexpectedly due to a call on her phone. Her mom's sharp tone blared through the speakers as soon as she received the call;"Your dad is coming home tomorrow. And if you don't want the whole world to know what an ungrateful little weasel you are, you better come by around noon and sign the papers, the lawyers will be here too.""Mom, I won't –""No! I won't hear any of your excuses. Mark's health is already in bad condition, and I am telling you, Scarlet! If something happens to your dad just because you are being such a brat, I will never forgive you!"With this warning, Hena cut the call, shaking Scarlet from the core. Seeing that her mother's disapproval was not going to go away any time soon, Scarlet was forced to think of the only possible option

    As soon as the bell rang, Artis opened the door, only to find a dejected Scarlet stepping into their home. The concern in his eyes didn't go unnoticed, and he immediately moved towards her."Hey, what happened?" Artis asked, his voice laced with genuine worry. "You look upset."Scarlet attempted to dismiss his concern with a forced smile. "It's just a work- related thing, nothing major."Artis, however, wasn't easily convinced. He could read Scarlet well, and her attempts to downplay the situation only heightened his curiosity."Come on, honey. You know you can tell me anything." Artis insisted, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. "I hate seeing you like this."Despite Artis's caring nature, Scarlet remained guarded."No, I already told you. It's just some misunderstanding at work. I can handle it on my own."Artis's protective instincts started kicking in, as he made her sit on the couch. "Scarlet, we are a team. If something's bothering you, let me help."Scarlet, appreciating

    As Artis and Scarlet embarked on the journey home after visiting her father at the hospital, the car became a witness to the intimate conversation between them. After holding herself back for the entire day, Scarlet's curiosity about the undisclosed wealth of her family bubbled to the surface, and she gently questioned him regarding his family dynamics. Artis could also understand that she had received quite a shock after coming to know this information, and he patiently tried to answer her questions without giving away too much at the same time. However, their conversation took a more serious turn as Scarlet expressed a concern which she had tried to suppress ever since he had told her about the reason for leaving his family."Artis, you said that you had left them because you didn't agree with a marriage that they had arranged for you. What if… what if they are still resentful because of that? What if we go and meet them, and your parents don't approve of me?"Leaning back in the

    As Dr. Dave Cameron dropped the bombshell about the Berhans family's unethical practices, the gathered onlookers, once swayed by Chad's lies, were now enraged by the truth about the family's history of exploiting innocent people.Angry voices started to rise, condemning Chad for his involvement in these scandals and accusing him of being a manipulative liar. The crowd shifted its anger towards Chad;"He fooled us all with his fake tears and displays of generosity!""I can't believe we fell for his lies, he manipulated us all!""People like him who bully others and then act like victims are a disgrace to the community!"The collective resentment built up as the crowd vented its frustration, realizing the extent of Chad's betrayal."Fool me once, shame on you!""We trusted him and demanded justice for him, and in return, he betrayed us!""I feel so cheated! We won't let you get away with this!""Kick him out! We don't want him here anymore!""Let's make sure everyone knows the truth abo

    CHAPTER 134 FRAUD COUPLE

    In the middle of this drama, a reporter also happened to arrive on the scene, with his full camera crew, making people think that the media had also been alerted about this scene because of the involvement of the heir of such a high profile family. But little did everyone know that this reporter had been tipped off by Chad himself, even before he had confronted Artis and Scarlet. He was fully prepared for both possibilities: if Artis agreed to give a statement, then this reporter would immediately rush to the scene and take his interview ; and if he refused, then too, Chad would get the chance to exploit this drama for a sensational news story. The atmosphere became charged with anticipation as the reporter, armed with a microphone, waded through the crowd to confront Artis and Scarlet.The reporter, with a cunning glint in his eye, addressed them;"Artis Hardy and Scarlet Silverman, the alleged fraud couple! What do you have to say about these damning accusations? Is it true that

    Artis and Scarlet stood in the hospital lobby as the sound of blames and accusations grew louder, while no one was ready to hear out their side of the story.On the contrary, the crowd's relentless beratings and insults only seemed to magnify with each passing moment."You call yourselves decent people? You're nothing but opportunistic leeches!""I doubt that all that success of the Silverman family is also built on lies, wasn't it? They really think everyone is a fool!""This poor guy deserves better friends than you two!""Look at them, acting innocent now. Just own up to your shameful acts!""These people are nothing but social climbers! They pretend to be friends with someone until they have squeezed the last drop of profit from them, and then forget about the ones who supported them!"Scarlet's eyes were filled with tears now, because her attempts to explain were being drowned out by the overwhelming chorus of disapproval, again and again. On the other hand, although Artis was v

    Chad's apologetic monologue continued, his voice heavy with guilt and the regret evident in his tone;"Artis, man, I can totally understand why you didn't want to forgive me at the hotel. I mean, I have been a complete idiot and I didn't even realize it! I looked down on you because of your financial status, and I even had some really messed up thoughts about Scarlet regardless of the fact that you two are married."He gulped before continuing, "And once I found out that Mrs. Silverman wanted you to get divorced as soon as possible, my hopes literally skyrocketed, thinking that I was finally going to get my dream girl. And that's why, I was also saying all those things back at the hotel, to hopefully provoke you enough where you willingly signed the divorce papers. But I can see how stupid I was, and I admit, I was wrong on all counts."Artis, though maintaining a stoic facade, couldn't fully trust Chad's sudden change of heart. "It's always easy to spout flattering words, Chad. But

    CHAPTER 131 DESRESPECTED

    Scarlet, enduring the unexpected slap from her mother, felt a surge of humiliation and pain, which sent tears streaming down her face. Although her cheek was already wet due to tears; this time, her tears were not because of her rage– rather, they had appeared because of the deep emotional wounds inflicted by her mother.For a few minutes, she was unable to say anything, processing the shock of the slal. But on the other hand, Artis, witnessing Scarlet's vulnerability, could no longer stand by as a silent spectator. His protective instincts kicked into gear, and he finally broke his silence to confront Hena;"Are you in control of your senses or not?! How can you just slap her like this–""Shut up!" Hena glared at him, while seething in anger."She is my daughter, and I can do as I please! Dammit–""Excuse me! You have exploited her enough as it is. Now, she is my wife before she is your daughter, so behave appropriately, do you understand? You better control yourself in front of m
