Chapter 1624 Arrest Warrant 4

"I need to talk to the person involved to give you an answer." Mahathir stepped forward and said in his ear: "If you don't want the situation to get worse, stay here."

"20 minutes." Peter Box said with a livid face. He had had enough of this humiliation.

If the other party cannot give him an answer within 20 minutes and send Aiden Lee to him, he will seek help from the police department.

Peter Box didn't believe that he really dared to shoot the police. Doing so would only land him in jail and ruin all his efforts.

"You will get the answer." Mahathir waved to his two assistants and walked quickly to the apartment.

"Sir, you are having dinner with your family. Can you please wait in the conversation room?" Frandi led them to the reception room on the 25th floor.

Mahathir immediately said: "No, I have to see him now."

Seeing his persistence, Frankie nodded and said, "I will tell you sir."

Walking into the reception room uneasily, Mahathir kept raising his hand and looking at the time on his watch. Every second was torture for him.

He had to talk to Li Zitao to decide what to do next.

Moreover, some of his suggestions need to be told to him personally to prevent him from making wrong decisions on impulse.

"Sir, Mahathir is downstairs and wants to meet you." When Frandi arrived, they were sharing the roasted turkey.

Ever since they ate Li Xiaobin's roasted turkey, they had never made the traditional dish again.

"Yes." Li Zitao wiped his mouth and drank the turkey with wine. "Sorry, I have to meet a guest. I'll be back soon."

"You're very busy today." Mary wanted to know what happened. He was very unusual today.

He would never do this during festivals, no matter how important the matter was.

"Be back soon." Li Zitao didn't explain anything and took the elevator downstairs. In the reception room, Mahathir was walking back and forth in a hurry.

"BOSS, you are finally here." Seeing Li Zitao, Mahathir finally breathed a sigh of relief; "You can't do this to He Dijian.

"

"Why not?" Li Zitao cut a cigar and handed it to him, looked at the two assistants and said, "Who are they?"

"A new lawyer at the law firm," Mahathir said, wiping the sweat from his head.

"Mahathir, I need you and your partners to put down what you are doing and take care of the Eden matter. You will bring...the two of them?" Li Zitao pointed at the two nervous lawyers and said.

"There's something...a little problem." Mahathir made a small gesture with his hand.

"what is the problem?"

Mahathir sat opposite him uneasily, rubbed his hands, and said with embarrassment: "It's a matter of the law firm. I was stabbed in the back by the person I trusted most."

"partner?"

"Named partner, Van Gaal." Mahathir said through gritted teeth; "She betrayed me and took away one-third of the lawyers and a large number of clients."

Li Zitao didn't seem to understand what it meant, and said casually: "Then what?"

"And?" Mahathir said angrily.

"She took away the heads of the family law department, the civil and upper commercial lawyers, and a third of the lawyers with 4 to 6 years of experience."

"The normal operations of the law firm have been challenged as never before. I must try my best to stabilize clients, especially the political side, otherwise we will all be in trouble."

"So, your other lawyers are used for other things, and there are only you and two... rookies here?" Li Zitao pointed at two lawyers who were obviously novices and looked nervous.

"I will handle it, trust me." Mahathir said confidently: "Let's talk about the arrest warrant first. You can't just kick them out."

"Actually, I can." Li Zitao said with certainty: "I prepared a Christmas gift for them, I believe they will receive it soon."

"What is it?" Seeing how confident he was, Mahathir asked curiously.

Li Zitao smiled and said; "Another judge personally signed the pardon order, preparing him to report to the police station after Christmas."

"Which judge?"

"Goran Lipsch."

"Chief Judge of New York State, there should be no problem with his words." After hesitating for a few seconds, Mahathir asked in a low voice: "Why not find James Franks?"

Li Zitao looked at him and asked, "Are you asking him to stop the investigation?"

"If he is willing, I believe the murderer will be found soon!" Mahathir emphasized when he said the word 'murderer'.

Li Zitao looked at him funny: "Do you think he will do it?"

"I don't know." Mahathir shook his head. He was really not sure.

If it were someone else, he was sure that the other person would do this, even if it was just to sell Li Zitao a favor.

But James Franks was like a stubborn donkey at times.

"I can ask, what exactly is Aiden..." Mahathir wanted to know the truth of the matter, which would help him make a correct judgment.

"He hasn't done anything." Li Zitao said calmly; "I will say hello to James and ask him to send someone to assist in the investigation."

"You have to ask him to keep a low profile. After all, it is the territory of Los Angeles County." Mahathir is worried about people who deliberately want to cause trouble.

If someone didn't want to cause trouble, how dare the Manhattan District Attorney come to arrest people on Christmas Eve? They did this on purpose.

"Boss, have you asked people to search the surrounding area to see if there are any reporters here?" Mahathir thought of another possibility.

Li Zitao's expression changed slightly. He was so excited by the other party's visit on Christmas Eve that he actually forgot about this...

"Fran Emperor, let someone look for it. If you find it, remember to bring back the negatives." Li Zitao hoped it was not too late now.

After a while, Wang Kui came back, leaned over and said in Li Zitao's ear: "We found footprints and remaining cigarette butts on the lawn behind. Someone had been there."

"Where are the people?"

"It seems that he has left." Wang Kui continued: "I am sending people to look for him, hoping to have news!"

The other person should leave for a while, because the cigarette butt has lost its temperature.

Whoever was hiding there seemed smart enough to know not to stay long enough to avoid detection.

So, now the trouble becomes theirs.

I hope the other party won't be so careful that they leave no clues, leaving them with no direction to look for.

"Is it possible that your previous confrontation was filmed?" Mahathir frowned and said in distress.

They had pointed guns at the police before, and Wang Kui even put the muzzle of the gun on the deputy prosecutor's head. If these scenes were caught on camera, they would be in big trouble.

"Probably not." Wang Kui said thoughtfully: "The cigarette butt didn't feel warm at all. The other party probably left after the district prosecutor and the police arrived."

"If so, we are very lucky." Mahathir hopes that things will develop in the direction he said.

Because if not, they will all suffer, especially for Mahathir, whose law firm is facing the biggest crisis since its establishment.
