Revenge of the Underrated Heir

Chapter 9: Danger Lurks

"Are they the ones to teach you your job? Throw them inside the cell immediately." James commanded. 

"Isn't it the Robert family, the owner of the Expensive Quest? You have the guts to accuse the owner of attempting to steal from his store. I will be back for you idiots." The head of police stated while commanding the two to the cell.

This time around, the commissioner and his escort had arrived at the police station. He didn't wait for his escort to open his door as he quickly jumped out and rushed towards James. He hugged him passionately.

Meanwhile, James was surprised with the Commissioner's action. He didn't even expect his family to be powerful to the extent of having the police to act this way. He wants justice to be served at all costs. Wendy and Alex have to pay for their action.

" I have been looking for you for the past 10 years. I search every nook and cranny of Drawsbury town. Thank God you are finally here. No one dares cross your path any longer. I will be a call away young master. " The commissioner said.

"I want the Manager of The Expensive Quest arrested immediately." James commanded like a true heir.

"Yes young master. He didn't know how big you are but he would know as he is nothing but a little employee of your young master." Anderson said. The commissioner ordered the head of station to carry out the arrest right away. The police officers dashed to the Expensive Quest. 

Meanwhile Kevin remembered the police are not aware they should arrest Wendy and Alex as well because they are the cause of it all. He concluded he would have to go and get his revenge by himself without needing the assistance of anyone. Also his card was missing and his Ferrari keys as well as he thought it would be better to retrieve these items by himself as well. 

James jump on his feet. Aderson quickly join him and asks about his destination.

"We are going to the Expensive Quest!" James commanded. Anderson knew his patience would run out while waiting for the head of station to understand the stand of James as well. He felt the heir was thinking in line with him as was thinking this would be the next action of master Roberts if he was the one. 

The commissioner of police who was still interrogating the two police officers for their misconduct noticed Anderson and James were heading outside. 

"I will be back for you retards." The commissioner said leaving the cell to join Anderson and James who were already outside the station. 

The Roberts convoy depicts luxury with every vehicle. The commissioner's convoy on the other hand was an official vehicle. Anderson quickly walked to the doorstep and opened the door for James. 

Before he could close the door, the commissioner had arrived and asked where they would be heading. 

"We can't afford to leave things in the hands of your nitwit officers. We would be heading right there to make sure things are done the right way." Anderson commanded.

"We head to The Expensive Quest right away." The commissioner ordered his convoy as they proceeded to the Expensive Quest. 

The two convoys arrived at The Expensive Quest in a jiffy with shoppers wondering what was going on. They anticipated who the person was and wondered even the Mayor of Drawsbury doesn't have as much as this convoy.

"This is the most expensive convoy I have seen in my life. What! Everything speaks of luxury." A motorist said leaving The Expensive Quest.

"This has to be the president of the world convoy. Who else could afford this." Another person said. 

The convoy entered the store blocking the path of everything one from leaving the store. The police came out to secure the perimeter as people wondered what was going on. On the other hand, Anderson and James came down from the Rolls Royce proceeding inside the store.

"You wait outside, we will handle this our own way!" Anderson ordered the commissioner and his police to wait outside. Some of the few shoppers who had seen James' face on Drawsbury's social app began gossiping.

"Isn't that Robert James the shoplifter?" Someone spoke from behind. 

"I wondered if he offended the mayor as well." Another voice added. They brought out their phones to take pictures but the police quickly covered the perimeter as they couldn't take James' picture with his face. Only his back was showing.

Meanwhile, the manager of The Expensive Quest who had seen the convoy arrive thought he was having a special guest visiting the store. It was Christmas, so it was expected and not a surprise. He thought it would be better for him to attend to them by himself and proceeded to join them.

When the security noticed James and Anderson approaching he was apprehensive again as he remembered his face. He was about to question them when he was pushed aside by Anderson security guards. The manager arrived at pace and approached Anderson. 

"Good day your highness, I'm the manager of the store. I'm by the name Chris, what would you like to get from us today." The manager said introducing himself. Meanwhile, James was not with Anderson this time around as he peeped through the store to see if Wendy and Alex were still around.

"Very good you are the manager." Anderson said.

"Pa!" Anderson said, slapping the manager with the prints of his hands appearing on his face. This drew the attention of the people shopping inside and as well as James. He approached the two as he was just a few meters away.

The manager recognized James and immediately understood what was going on. He didn't know what they were up to but with the convoy outside the store there are definitely powerful people in Drawsbury.

"Do you know who he is?" Anderson said, pointing in James' direction. 

"No sir, but he tried to shoplift. He was caught and handed to the police…" The manager tried to defend himself but before he could finish another slap landed on his face.

"He is the Heir to Robert's family and you accused him of shoplifting when he was the owner of the store." Anderson said, bringing out his phone to call the director of the store.

The call was connected and the joyful voice of the director came in immediately. "Merry Christmas Mr Anderson. I was about to call you as well, where are you right now?" The Expensive Quest managing director said.

"I'm in the store and I want you here in the next 3 minutes right now." Anderson with full authority. 

"I'm just around the corner, I will be there in a minute. Beep." Anderson ended the call.

"Take me to your cctv room now." Anderson ordered the manager.

Meanwhile the two store assistants stare in surprise wondering what their boss had done to be subjected to such treatment. They saw James following them to the office and the dots connected immediately. Danger lurks around the curtain they thought with the way things are happening fast.
