Emerald pushed Shawn away with immediate effect and punched him hard on the face

His nose started to bleed immediately

"Argh" he groaned in pain, trying to stop the bleeding with his palm

"What did you just do?!" She yelled at him, wiping her mouth with the sleeve of her bodice

"Who in the world said you could, ugh?" Emerald scoffed in disbelief and folded her arms "Why in the world did you do that? Have you lost your mind?!"

"No, I only did that because I thought it will cheer you up"

"Do I look depressed?"

"That's not it, Colin said......." He suddenly paused and covered his mouth after realizing he just mentioned Colin's name even though he was not supposed to do.

Yeah, Jackson might be a judge, a corrupted one He might be a rich man He might be someone with so many employees and followers but he doesn't dare raise his head when this young man is talking. He had killed so many people for him, but yet he is not always satisfied He wants more No one knows his real intention But it doesn't look like he would stop until he has achieved his goal. He looks really unstoppable. "He actually looks more stronger than expected and it seems he knows something with the way he wasn't even willing to let go of it even though I was ready to kill him" Jackson explained, so scared of what would happen to him. "Really?" He scoffed "Then why didn't you kill him? You should have done so" "I..... I can't just kill someone in a big mansion, I'm gonna get caught" Jackson gulped "Is that so?"

Shawn asked"Jackson Dream. I think he works with them too" Eric replied "About that..." The detective meddled "Our boys are on our way to get him""Really?" Shawn blinked in surprise "does he really work for them?""Yeah. You remember the doctor who died in our cell, right?""Yeah" Shawn nodded "Turns out he was actually the one who came in and strangled her""Ugh? How is that possible, what in the world were your boys doing?" Eric scoffed in disbelief"He paid the lieutenant in charge a handsome amount and also paid the security in charge of the CCTV so the footage was deleted" the detective explained, looking kind of disappointed that his fellow officers joined hands with a criminal to kill a human who they should protecting"That's just so bad

Shawn asked as he was not aware of where Eric has been driving him to for the past 30 minutes."Somewhere important" Eric replied, paying good attention to all the houses around"Can you at least tell me the important place? I don't think it's okay for me to just appear somewhere without being prepared" Shawn got even more curious "Don't tell me you are taking me to Axel, are you working for him too?" He gasped"That's offensive" Eric clicked his tongue "Fine. I am trying to look for someone who knows Axel well""Someone who knows Axel? I don't think someone like that exist, he is so sly and pretentious so much that he deserves an Oscar. Why are we wasting our time searching for someone when we should....." Before Shawn would complete his sentence, Eric stopped the car in front of a bungalow"We are here" he mouthed as he made signal for Shawn to alight."What is this place?"
