"I'm fine. I was not harmed in the least. Don't worry," Alice replied as she walked closer to Ryder.
"Why didn't you call me when so much happened?" Ryder asked her as he reached out his hand and held her hand on the other side of the bars.
"My phone was broken," Alice said.
"You could've asked the cop to let you call me," Ryder told her.
"I tried, but they didn't allow me to call anyone," Alice said as she glanced towards the cops.
"It's alright. I'll get you out, don't worry," Ryder said.
Ryder brought out his phone and dialed a number.
"Shu, your family is Rich, right? Can you ask your parents if they know any lawyer? I need a lawyer urgently to get my sister out of prison," Ryder told Shu.
"Your sister? What's she doing in prison? Wait, you can tell me later. Just tell me the name of the prison, her name, and the charges. I'll be right there with my lawyers," Shu replied instantly.
"Her name is Alice. She's charged with battery and assault of a girl. Just get me the lawyer as fast as you can. Don't worry about the money; I'll handle whatever bill they throw my way," Ryder told Shu. He also told him the police station location.
"Don't worry about the bill. The lawyer is my friend. We'll be right there," Shu said as he disconnected the call.
"The lawyer will be here. We'll be back home in no time," Ryder comforted Alice.

Back at his place, Shu also called a number.
"Zhang, Get your ass out of your house right now. I need you to get a girl out of prison. She's arrested for battery and assault," Shu told his lawyer all the information.

"Alright. I'll be at the station in half an hour," Zhang said before he disconnected the call.
Shu also left his house and got in his Ferrari 2047, which raced on the road.

"Can you tell me why you hit her?" Ryder asked Alice while he waited for Shu to get here.
"She talked vulgar things about me. She said that I'm sleeping with a rich guy for money who dropped me off at the university. She also said that I call him my brother to hide my dirty secret from the world," Alice replied as he looked down.
"You did great. If I were in your place, I would definitely have broken off her jaw," Ryder told her.
"I didn't even hit her that hard. She accused me falsely, and the Dean also misused his powers to get a fake report from the school nurse about her jaw being broken," Alice replied.
"He couldn't take it that I hit his daughter. I even worry that he might cancel my scholarship and throw me out of the university," Alice said as her eyes started getting wet.
"Hey, don't cry, alright? No one is going to throw you out of the university. I'll go talk to the dean properly after you're free. I would definitely love to see how seriously his daughter is injured," Ryder said.

Shu reached the police station.
"Brother Ryder," he called out as he entered the police station.
Ryder heard Shu's voice.
"Wait here. I'll be right back, and we will go home," Ryder told Alice as he rubbed her cheeks gently and left her behind.
"Where's the lawyer?" Ryder asked as he saw Shu.
"He is coming. He should be at the judge's house getting the bail papers ready," Shu replied.

Ryder stepped back and forth as he waited for the lawyer to arrive.
"Can you tell me what exactly happened?" Shu asked Ryder.
Ryder described everything that Alice had told him.
"What the f*ck? It's his daughter who's clearly at fault here. How can someone be that corrupt!" Shu cursed out loud.
"Don't worry about that. Also, I'm going to sue the police for falsely arresting my sister without checking the facts as for the Dean; I'll see him myself," Ryder muttered.
"Are you really going to sue the police force?" Shu asked him.
"Yup. They handled this whole matter wrong. Without checking the condition of the other party properly, they charged my sister with the grave offense of battery and assault when it was just a light slap. Secondly, they didn't allow her to call her family to inform them. If I hadn't found out about it, they would've kept my sister here without letting her inform anyone," Ryder told Shu.
"That might work. We can talk to our lawyer when he gets here," Shu muttered as he smiled.
An SUV stopped before the police station, and a white-haired man stepped out of the car. He looked to be 50-60 years old.
As he stepped inside, even the cops were surprised.
"Mr. Zhang? What are you doing here?" The Chief of Police walked out himself to meet the lawyer.
"Is that your family lawyer? He seems to hold quite a high position?" Ryder asked Shu as he saw the reaction on everyone's faces.
"Yeah, he's our family lawyer, and he has somewhat of a reputation in the city, I guess," Shu muttered.
What he didn't tell Ryder was that Zhang was one of the best lawyers in the entire country, and he was also the one that handled most of the legal matters of the Dream Corporation.
"These are the bail papers. Release the girl known as Alice," Zhang gave the papers to the Police Chief. His strict expressions never left his face.
The police chief commanded the officer to release the girl.
The cell of Alice was opened, and she stepped out. She walked up to Ryder.
"I'll go talk to him about Suing the Police. Wait right here," Shu told Ryder before he walked up to Zhang.
He talked to Zhang about what he and Ryder spoke about.
"We can do that," Zhang nodded his head as he said.
"Alright. You can get things ready. Remember, you're not doing this for the Dream Corporation, but for my friend. Mention his name instead of Dream Corporation so that he gets the money if we win. Prepare accordingly. I want you to win," Shu told Zhang.
"Yes," Zhang nodded his head.
Shu walked back to Ryder.
"He says that it's possible. He'll prepare things for you," Shu told him.
"Good. I want them to pay for what they made my sister go through," Ryder said.
'Too bad my company and other stuff are not set up. I would've been drowning in money otherwise,' Ryder thought as he sighed.
They walked out of the Station. Zhang got in his car and left.
Alice also sat on the passenger seat of Ryder's Whirlwind.
Ryder and Shu were standing outside, talking.
