Michael Scofield Has Returned! Chapter 190: Scarlett's Call

They were simply doing their jobs to uncover if Michael was truly guilty or not.Regardless, they had been respectful of all detention procedures.“Sincerely, I don't think you did all those published about you. But the evidence is everywhere in our faces that we can't just turn a blind eye.”The sergeant calmly engaged him with a tinge of worry etched on his demeanor.Michael leaned further from his seat, his facial expression welcoming as the words of the concerned sergeant resonated with him.“This is not the first time I have been framed but this time around. They did it so well and that I must admit.”“They hav

“The past?”“He'll tell you all you need to know.”Michael kept whispering those words after the call with Scarlett disconnected.For a couple of minutes, he had thought less about his temporary detention in the police station and settled his mind on his biological father.He grew up knowing nothing about his father— he was as good as dead, but for strange reasons, Oliver King's revelation changed the course of events.Yes, he didn't have the best father/son relationship with Oliver but one thing certain was he nursed no resentment against him despite being absent in his life for over three decades.The thudding question was what Oliver had been keeping from Michael and when he intended to let the cat out of the bag.“You have a visitor.”“Fifteen minutes is the best I can give.”The sergeant who engaged him about twenty minutes ago informed him.Michael halted from his thoughts and raised his head to dart his eyes to know who had come to see him.Ordinarily, he would have expected Sh

Michelle drew a slow breath, glancing nervously around. “He's planning something big. I overheard him talking to some of his allied, powerful, wealthy figures before he was arrested. He's looking for leverage; a way to bring you down.”Michael’s forehead knitted in thoughts. “Why are you telling me this?”Her voice remained steady “Because I have hurt you enough," she admitted quietly. “I made mistakes, but I don't want to see you destroyed. Despite everything, I… still care in some way.”For a moment, there was silence. Michael studied her emotions, facial expression, demeanor, and attitude— searching for deception, but found none.“Thank you for the warning,” he cautiously replied. “I hope you find the path you’re looking for.”Michelle chimed in a shaky smile and turned heading out until his voice halted her tracks.“Who are these unknown allied figures? I know they have been sponsoring this battle. What do they have to gain? Who are they?”Michael's words oozed with curiosity— in

Chapter 193: ”I Forgive You”
