He was the successor of a mysterious European family and the president of a transnational financial conglomerate. Although a bachelor for years, he had a 6-year-old son.
She was the head of the Criminal Investigation Department of the North District Police Station, a dumb violent police officer.
When they first met, she thought he was a mobster. Not only did she crash into his expensive sports car, but even bit him.
He calmly raised his slender fingers with teeth marks and said, "Hester, do you think you can get away after biting me? I want money, or this isn't over."
She buckled when she noticed the bite mark, asking sheepishly, "How much?"
"Let's see. 500,000." He smiled charmingly but was cooking up a plan. "Bucks!"
She only made 4, 500 a month. Bursting into tears, she said pitifully, "What if I can't afford it?"
The smile on his thin lips spread wider. "Then I guess you will make do. I am in need of a girlfriend, and my son a mother."
However, she didn't want to be a stepmother!
The spoiled brat countered, "I don't want that dumb woman to be my mommy! I only agreed to call her mother for Daddy's sake. It's not because I like her or anything!"

Hester paused and looked up. "Bette, if I want to cover for you, I would not come to interrogate you today. I would not aggravate or extenuate your guilt just because you are Bette. I know you are a smart person, and I can tell you very clearly that I will take over your case. No matter what you say, I will do it. I don't care about your words."


"Hester, you are my sister. No one will believe you won't cover for me. Why don't you hand over the case to someone else? Oceanfront City has tons of policemen. And this is the West District Precinct. It has nothing to do with you."


After listening to this sentence, Hester put on a cold smile. "The Carter family has not declined yet. How can I be assured that others will not be bribed by the Carter family?"


Bette narrowed her eyes. "It turns out that the police in Oceanfront City are so easy to bribe. Officer Hester, you seem to have no confidence in the police."
