Chapter 2744
Grace no longer looked at Warren. She fixed her gaze on Gilbert, who was scared out of his wits, and Frederick, whose face had gone completely pale. Her voice was sharp and unwavering, radiating undeniable authority."You've broken the law, led a gang to commit violence, carried weapons, harmed others, and threatened public officials. Your criminal history is well established, and the evidence is undeniable. You will face the harshest punishment the law allows."Her eyes swept to Warren, still on his knees, and warned him one last time. "If anyone is to blame, blame your dear nephews. They did what they shouldn't have and offended the wrong people."She spoke deliberately, each word cutting through the room as she sealed the brothers' fate."Effective immediately, all privileges and status held by Gilbert and Frederick are revoked. They will be transferred to the judicial authorities and severely punished in accordance with the law. From now on, they'll spend the rest of their li

"I… I swear, Your Royal Highness. It's not true. There's absolutely no such thing," Warren stammered.His face drained of color, sweat rolling down his forehead. He waved his hands frantically and hunched over, trying to make himself smaller.His voice cracked with desperation, saying, "You've misunderstood. Just a… It was just a small misunderstanding. I was worried my two foolish nephews were being mistreated at the police station. "I got flustered and spoke too harshly, but I never meant to threaten Chief Wolfe. Right? It was a misunderstanding, wasn't it?"He pleaded with his eyes at Cedric, silently begging him to speak on his behalf.Cedric didn't dare to say anything. He kept his head down, staring at his toes, as if he'd heard nothing.Grace's lips curved into a faint, cold smile. "A misunderstanding? Speaking too harshly? Warren, did you really think you could fool me?""No, Your Royal Highness. I—""Then tell me," she cut him off, her tone sharp and unforgiving. "You

Grace's sudden appearance changed the mood of the holding room, replacing it with a tense, unsettling silence.When Warren saw her, the arrogance he had drawn from his family's influence vanished without a trace. In its place came a chill that spread quickly through him, followed by a deep, growing unease.He knew all too well how much the princess mattered to the King and how vast her influence had become, both inside and outside the government. Someone of her standing would never appear at a small detention facility, so this wasn't some spur-of-the-moment visit.However, someone failed to read the room.Gilbert, still seething with nowhere to direct his rage, froze for a moment when a breathtakingly beautiful young woman walked in. The two men in black and Grace's own presence clearly intimidated him, but his playboy instincts quickly overrode that flicker of caution.Seeing that she seemed to be coming for them, his bruised ego flared back to life. Curling his lips into a smirk
Chapter 2741
As soon as Dustin and Natasha stepped out of the police station, the cool night air hit them.He took his phone and made a call. "I ran into some trouble," he said. "I need a favor."…Gilbert and Frederick were being held inside the police station's holding area. Although their detention was temporary, they weren't placed in a standard cell. Instead, they were assigned to a private holding room with comparatively comfortable conditions. This was an obvious courtesy afforded by the Chandler family's influence.But the preferential treatment did nothing to cool Gilbert's rage."Damn it! Those blind fools actually dared to lock me up?"He paced the room restlessly, cursing nonstop. "Once I get out, I'm killing that boy toy Rhys. Then, I'll deal with the officer who pinned me down earlier."The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He had never suffered this kind of humiliation in his life.Frederick sat against the wall on the bed with his eyes closed. His face was d

After arriving at the police station, Dustin and Natasha were led into an interview room. A middle-aged officer, Cedric Wolfe, personally took their statements. He was calm and courteous throughout.She gave a detailed account of the entire incident. She described being cornered by Gilbert's convoy outside the mall, the chase that followed, and finally being surrounded on the overpass.Dustin added more details, emphasizing the attackers' numbers, their weapons, and how the Chandler brothers had openly ordered the assault. He spoke clearly and calmly and characterized their actions as serious intentional assault and unlawful detention.Cedric took notes, his frown deepening with each detail. With the Chandler family involved and the crime carried out so openly, he found himself in a difficult position.Just then, someone knocked softly on the door. A young officer hurried in and whispered something to Cedric. Then, he discreetly handed him a phone with someone still on the line.

The bullet missed the thug but struck the ground near his feet, sending up sparks. He scrambled backward in terror, rolling and crawling to get away. The other thugs froze at the sudden gunfire, staring in uncertainty at Natasha with the pistol in her hand. None of them dared move closer."Dear, are you okay?" she asked, rushing forward and keeping the gun trained on the thugs.Dustin leaned against the overpass railing, breathing hard. He wiped blood from the corner of his mouth and waved her off."I'm fine. It's just a scratch."Natasha looked at his battered state and noticed his movements were not as sharp as before. Something wasn't adding up, so she asked, "You used to handle guys like them easily. Why are you struggling now?"Dustin smiled wryly. He didn't see a point in hiding from her anymore and said, "I can no longer use my cultivation. I'm no different from an ordinary person now.""What?" Her eyes widened in disbelief. "How did that happen?""It's a long story. I'
