When Ben saw that the shot missed, Donte Wagner, who was next to him, pulled out a gun as well, and Ben suddenly turned his face and fired a shot at Demetrius. Hank rubbed his chin, "Told Lennon was premarital phobic." In the following days, the S City Police Department, under the personal command of Bureau Ignacio, uncovered all the personnel Worf had planted within the department as well as at the police academy, and Interpol's side of the battle was thoroughly cleared of Worf's encroachment. This battle was fought beautifully. However, before the SCI people can enjoy the joy of solving the case, there is another arduous task waiting for them, turning to Denmark to attend Broderick and Lennon's wedding. Lennon nodded, "Well, willing, aren't you?" "In the two rooms next door to big brother's new house." Gonzales smothered a laugh, "We set it up just as there was more than enough material." The car drove away slowly. Broderick was tossed out too, "So what else? I've told you that
The crowd followed Hank's outstretched finger with raised eyebrows, their gaze directed towards the indicated spot. Over the trees, the highway, and under the clear blue sky, a single distinct object stood out - a Ferris wheel. Joziah furrowed his brow in confusion and turned to Hank, questioning, "A Ferris wheel? Are you certain?" Demetrius took a moment to consider and then spoke, "That's the direction of the amusement park. It's where we investigated that historical institute earlier." Ramiro joined the conversation, adding, "Is it the haunted Historical Institute where the Wife and Daughter painting is located?" A faint smile appeared on the corners of Hank's lips as he affirmed, "Exactly." As the leader, Joziah arranged for the SWAT team to escort the arrested individuals to the police station, while the rest of the group opted for a lighter approach, traveling together towards the amusement park. Hank signaled the car to halt in front of the gates of the Institute of Histor
"You are sixteen years old now. During the summer break, you're able to start working full-time. I have found a job for you. You'll start work next weekend." The speaker was Zoe Torres, the aunt of Demetrius Goodwin.Demetrius had no parents.Zoe Torres told him his parents abandoned him. The man Jerome Brewer was kind enough to adopt him when he found him lying in a blanket on a park bench.When Demetrius was seven, Jerome Brewer died suddenly from a work accident, and Demetrius was brought by Zoe Torres, Jerome Brewer's wife.She is a woman whose life of poverty has been tormented, and she has become harsh.Since Demetrius was ten years old, he had to work various jobs to help financially support this family.She cut the cake, fed it to her son, and cut it for herself, then pushed the rest, sneered, and said: "Today is your birthday; I reward this cake for you."Demetrius Goodwin did not eat. He knows she's not nice enough to buy him a cake for his birthday, it was the birthday cake
Demetrius glanced at Zoe. She had received a large amount of money, so her attitude toward him was better than usual.She said, "You follow him. He will bring you back to your biological parents. You're the rich kid now! Don't forget my gratitude for raising you."Demetrius asked no further questions and did not pack his luggage. He got into the car and sat down, eyes slightly drooping.On the way, the man talked a lot. He narrated Demetrius's factual background: he was the only son of the most wealthy family in Phoenix.His father's name is Kirk Hoffman, and his mother's name is Ivanna Gallagher.However, he was kidnapped before. His family looked for him and couldn't find him. Then they adopted another boy.He currently has an adopted brother named Finlay Hoffman. The man also advised him on things to keep in mind while living in his new home.When he heard Finlay's name, Demetrius' previously calm face suddenly changed, his brows furrowed, and his face seemed to be contemplating so
Demetrius was too lazy to face people like Finlay. He asked bluntly: "Where are my parents?" The maidservant, visibly annoyed, glanced at Demetrius. Finlay looked regretful, "Because of some business, they still haven't arrived, maybe half an hour. In the meantime, would you like to visit the piano room?" Demetrius was about to say that he would wait in the living room. However, when he saw Finlay's scornful look and his face that wanted to humiliate him, Demetrius changed his mind. He was a sixteen-year-old boy, and although somewhat more mature than his peers, there was no reason for him to resist a challenger repeatedly without daring to take revenge. Demetrius is not a weak man. He is willing to shed blood to avenge his revenge, let alone when he is confident that he has that ability. So the three of them went to the piano room on the second floor. As soon as he entered the room, the piano immediately attracted Demetrius's eyes despite the other bright furniture arranged insid
His reaction from the moment he stepped foot into this mansion until now seems too calm.This makes Finlay feel at risk.Before that, according to Finlay, Demetrius lived in such impoverished conditions, so he must be very self-deprecating and timid, which would not affect the inheritance position. In contrast, recently, Demetrius has shown his piano talent far surpassing him, though he doesn't want to admit it. Mrs Gallagher patted Finlay's shoulder, "It's late. You should go to bed too."Finlay immediately said, "Yes, good night, mom and dad."He thought to himself, no matter what Demetrius may show, he will not give this position of inheritance to anyone and doesn't expect that he will give in to Demetrius even a little; he will soon find out how to get Demetrius out of this house.Imagining that beautiful future, Finlay smiled proudly.Demetrius lay on his bed, thinking about Finlay.He had met Finlay about a month ago but had not been rushed home until today. He was convinced th
The car quickly moved to the school. The high school Finlay attended was called Berry Baxter. Berry Baxter is a very famous school only for rich students. There are only three types of people entering this school, one is a student from a very rich family, the other is a student who is both excellent and rich, and the third is a student who is poor but has excellent achievements and receives a full scholarship to study here. Obviously, the area of this school was three times larger than Demetrius' old high school, he quietly looked at the school's architecture outside the car window before the car stopped at the school gate. Demetrius then followed Finlay to the classroom. The homeroom teacher heard that Demetrius was going to school today, so he came to class a little earlier than usual. When he saw Demetrius, he motioned for him to come up to the platform. "Introduce everyone about yourself, Mr. Hoffman." Most of the people had already arrived, and dozens of eyes had been fixed
In all of his school days, there had never been a time when Demetrius had truly stood out like this, which in any sense was negative.Mrs. Gardner just said nonchalantly: “Didn't he have a student before he moved here? There are no exceptions.”As soon as her voice ended, the murmurs began again.“So pitiful.”“Morrow doesn't need to clean the classroom anymore! Congratulations on breaking your twenty-two-day record!”Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing, leading many other students to laugh as well."Stop it! Even without him, I wouldn't be sweeping today!" The boy with curly hair snorted coldly and said to the boy sitting at his desk.“How long do you think Finlay's brother will set the record?”“I bet at least six months. How can the boy in the countryside get a good education?"“Is that too pitiful?”"Why don't you think we won't have to worry about biology anymore?"“You’re right! Why didn't I think of that?"For rich students, the punishment they fear the most is cleanin
