“finally”

Only to have, an hour later, two police officers come into his office, preceded by Wil. That man had been waiting for them to arrive.

Telling them he didn’t know what they were talking about, had not gotten him a good response and Wil had glared right at him for his blatant lie. He’d already sent him a text

“Be remorseful. It had stated, letting him know what he wanted from Calvin to try and help him out of this mess.

One of the officers had stood and stared at him, then just pulled out his phone and showed him the footage of it on his phone. From a different angle, this one was from Lisa Stevens herself,

“Really, Mr Reeves, you may have here at your disposal within this company the ability to remove things from the internet and shut them down, but unless you have the original footage, it’s still going to get out there. Miss Stevens sent us a copy, and I believe her lawyers have it now, as does her publishing house.”

he’d smiled right at Calvin

“That woman, it seems, is a bit like a lawyer.”

His partner had snorted,

“Talks like one. Could hold a degree for all anyone in this office knows.”

Wil had glared at him once more. If she was, he was going to wind up in court. That was the look he was getting from Wil right that very second; he’d seen that before. Attacking and assaulting a lawyer was a no no. They knew how to fight back

“Will you be committing perjury on the stand, Mr Reeves, lie to the judge like you just did now? Because we have just come from the hospital, and Miss Stevens and Miss Riddley both gave their accounts of the situation. Miss Stevens, I believe, was being treated for a broken wrist.

“Which from all I’ve seen, you caused. That is why we are here. You’re being arrested for one count of alleged stalking of Marilyn Riddley, two counts of alleged assault and two counts of alleged grievous bodily harm against Miss Stevens and Miss Riddley.”

He was frowning now.

“I stalked no one,”

he grated out.

“Hmm, if you say so. Now you can come willingly to the station, or we can go with the handcuffs.”

he was told.

“He’ll go willingly,”

Wil stated. I’m his lawyer, and willing it will be.”

“Will I?”

had been Calvin’s words on the matter.

“I think you’ll find Marilyn Riddley is not her real name, that she is actually Marrin Reeves

“

“Shut it.”

Wil shot at him, and he frowned at him, only to hear a laugh come from one of the officers.

“Oh, is that so…. So when seeing your wife alive and well for the first time in eight years, your first thought was to assault her, was it? Instead of being relieved she was alive… That must be nice for her, considering how loving a couple you two always appeared to be,”

one of the officers stated.

“Maybe it was all a lie.”

The other officer nodded.

“And she ran away from him, and he’s mad about it so.”

he shrugged

“That’s why he assaulted her on the spot.”

“I’ve never laid a f*****g hand on Marrin.”

He grated out, furious with what they were implying.

“Hmm, that video begs to differ”

The officer stated,

“Willingly or not, you’re under arrest until we can sort this

He watched as handcuffs were produced and again Wil was glaring at him, snapped

“Calvin.”

In a warning tone. Then he turned to the officers,

“He’ll go willingly, I’ll go with him, there will be no need for handcuffs.”

Then he looked right at him once more.

“Move It Calvin, and as your lawyer. I advise you to go willingly right this minute. There is already press outside. Do you want them taking your picture in handcuffs?”

His anger notched up, and he yanked his jacket from the back of his chair and pulled it on.

“I’m not getting in a police car, you can give me the common curtesy of taking myself to the police station to answer your questions. Yes.”

“I don’t know, you’re a billionaire with your own personal jet, a flight risk.”

One stated with a bit of a smirk.
