“I don’t give a damn if he digs his own grave, but to drag Emily with him? What a bastard!” Solomon scowled with resentment. “Now’s not the time for this. Quick, we need to think of a way to save Ms. Emily!” said Robert. “You’re right! We have to find a way. I know a friend who works at the police station. I’ll give him a call at once!” “I know a relative who has connections with some police officers of higher ranks. I’ll find out if he can offer us any help.” Suddenly, the air was filled with the excited chattering of everyone in the group, gathering assistance from anyone they could think of. *******Nighttime, in the interrogation room of the police station. Henry and Emily sat with their backs against each other, bound to the chairs in the middle of the room. The air in the room was cool and damp, and darkness shrouded them completely. They could feel an invisible weight on their shoulders. “My bad, I didn’t mean to drag you into this mess,” Henry spoke first. “They cl
“What if I am?” the inspector sneered. The cigar hung from his teeth as he continued with disdain, “I know you have some punch in you, but even superpowers won’t be useful in my territory! Besides, need I remind you that your gorgeous girlfriend will be very popular if she ends up in prison! Even if you could not care less about yourself, you should keep her in mind! That is, if you can bear watching as the other prisoners ravage such a delicate beauty!” Henry’s expression hardened. Murderous intent seeped from his eyes. “If you dare touch her, rest assured that nothing but death will await you!” While his aggressive remark stunned Emily, she couldn’t help the warmth that filled her chest. “Haha! You can barely stand up for yourself. And to think, you’re trying to threaten me! If you have brains in that head of yours, just apologize to Ethan Murphy publicly. Otherwise, you can’t blame me if I throw your beloved in prison! Give it some thought. You’ll have thirty minutes to think it
Meanwhile, in Alex Morris mansion. Jonathan Adam's walked into the house with a stern expression on his face. When he entered the living room, Alex was seated on the couch watching the news.You're sitting here while something bad happens!”Jonathan walked into the room with a very serious expression on his face as if he was about to do something unimaginable.Alex was startled at Jonathan's sudden visit and he quickly took the remote and off the television.“You made me scared. You didn't even knock. Sorry, what bad thing happened? Did someone offend you or something? Tell me?" Alex asked, sitting in a more upright position. “huff. Nobody can dare offend me in this city. Though, Something big really did happen!” Jonathan tried to maintain a calm expression.“Now tell what’s going on? You have me tensed and filled with anxious uncertainty,” Alex's eyes stared curiously at Jonathan's.“It’s about Mr. Brown. He’s been arrested by Fisher!” Jonathan exploded. “What?” Alex started trem
“Oh? Did I? Why is it that I’m not aware of this?” Mr. Fisher questioned. His heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t let it show. He asked, “Mr. Alex, did something happen?” “Fisher! Don’t you dare pull tricks on me! Heed my order and release Henry right this instant! Or else, don’t blame me for cutting you off for good!” Alex yelled into the phone. “Mr. Morris, there must have been a misunderstanding! I don’t know a Henry at all. How about I look into it for you?” The officer desperately put on an act by lying. There was no way he would spill the beans on the plan. “Alright then, you fat bastard. You have no idea what you’re getting yourself into! Mark my words–if anything happens to Henry, you and your whole family will go down with him!” Alex hung up the phone with a threatening growl: “Did that old man get up on the wrong side of the bed today?” grumbled Fisher, his displeasure written all over his face. “Sir, what’s wrong?” the Baker asked cautiously. “What’s wrong? Where di
“Fisher, you have pushed my limits!” Henry kicked the shackles aside and rushed towards him. “Quick, stop this kid!” Mr. Fisher screamed for help. The burly men immediately surrounded Henry, and all of them attacked him at the same time. “Get out of my way!” A surge of energy was released when Henry stomped his heel on the ground. The sheer force threw the men backward and crash into the walls of the interrogation room. All of them were dead in an instant, bleeding from their internal wounds. “Help, anybody! Please help!” Mr. Fisher turned pale and whirled around to escape. Henry kicked the limp body of a man lying beside him. It flew like a bullet and crashed into Mr. Fisher, who was attempting to escape. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground, unable to run any longer. “I’ve warned you not to touch her.” Henry strolled up to him and hissed murderously, his eyes boring dangerously into Mr. Fisher. “Kid, don’t forget you’re in the police station! You can’t go too far!” Mr
“What? This kid knows Mr. Alex Morris and Jonathan Adams?” Baker turned pale with shock. He didn’t believe it when Mr. Fisher told him about this. Now that he had witnessed the situation with his own eyes, only then did he realize the gravity of the situation. “Wow, even Mr. Alex is here. Mia must have asked for his help to save you. Seems like she really can’t live without you, huh?” Sarcasm dripped from Emily’s voice as she spoke. “Mr. Alex, why are you here as well?” Mr. Fisher frowned. Mia alone was tough enough to handle. If Alex and Jonathan joined in the fray, things might get out of hand. “If I didn’t show up, would you listen to reason?” Alex retorted angrily. “Mr. Alex, I informed you in the call last time. Give me some time so I can look into it. If there’s a mistake. I will let him go immediately.” Mr. Fisher tried to wriggle his way out.“I have no time to waste yapping with you. Let Henry go this instant!” Alex ordered impatiently. The corrupted ways of the police
The elderly man standing before them was the mayor of East city, the highest–ranking official in the city. He was truly the most powerful man in the East city! “Finally, Mr. Megan is here! Henry, you’re dead meat! What’s the use of getting Ms. Mia’s and Mr. Alex’s help? As long as Mr. Megan is on our side, no one will be able to save you today!” With the appearance of Mr. Megan, the expression on Baker’s face changed from fear to arrogance. He laughed mockingly, knowing that Mr. Megan was here to back them up. He was their savior! When Mia and Alex came to save Henry, Baker thought that they were doomed. Fortunately, Mr. Megan arrived just in time, which gave him peace of mind. “Mr. Alex! You slapped and shot me in the ear for that punk’s sake! You have gone too far! Now that my father–in–law is here, let’s see how you will explain this to him!” Mr. Fisher snickered with a resentful expression on his face. Weren’t they so brazen a minute ago? He couldn’t wait to see how impudent
At this moment, in a beautiful villa. Ethan was talking to a young man dressed in luxurious clothes. Behind that man, two female bodyguards stood at attention. They were armed with swords and emitted an unapproachable aura. "Mr Paul, I'll keep giving you these secret antidotes to cure your illness. All I just want is your support and that of your father's guild," Ethan said."Sure, you'll receive my support and that of my father's," Paul stretched forth his hands to receive the antidote. "However, Ethan, don’t get ahead of yourself. If you want my father’s support, first, you would have to supply us with these antidotes continuously. Secondly, loyalty is paramount. Do you understand?” Paul said sternly. “I will remember your advice, Mr. Paul!” Ethan nodded. While talking, they were interrupted by a commotion from the gardens. The noise sounded like a cacophony of curses and cries of pain. “What’s going on?” Ethan frowned. At this moment, a bodyguard rushed into the room, his
