Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 149

Don, who was suddenly called out, subconsciously looked up at Tom. He cleared his throat and told him the whole story. “According to the evidence we have so far, she is the biggest suspect in this case.”

“Heh!” Tom sneered.

Morris immediately felt hopeless.

Oh no, oh no. The King of Hell smiled.

He was kind enough to give Don a chance to redeem himself.

Good lord, he actually dug his own grave here!

Tom glanced at Don and said in a cold voice, “Since you’re a special forces police officer who retired from the top, you should know that there’s a different set of rules in every place. You detained someone without any direct evidence. You should know the seriousness of this nature.”

“But we received a police report and found the stolen goods at the crime scene. Aren’t these counted?!”

Don had to retire from the army a year ago due to his injuries and came here to be a captain.

He did not like flattery, nor did he like the bootlicking in the bureaucracy. He had always done things his own way. To put it nicely, he was confident, but to put it bluntly, he was stubborn.

Because of this, he had been complained about more than once and ostracized by others.

Seeing that he was not having a good time up there, Morris thickened his skin and asked him to come over. Therefore, every time he faced Don’s trouble, he would admit defeat. After all, he was the one who invited him to join him.

However, this time, Don harmed Rachel. Morris could not even protect himself. How could he have the extra energy to protect him? He could only pray for himself.

“Where’s the witness? Where’s the confession?” Tom questioned.

Don was stunned for a moment. His self-righteous aura immediately dissipated a little. “We’re still in the interrogation stage. For the time being, we don’t…”

Tom narrowed his dark eyes, which flickered with a terrifying coldness. “You’re forcefully. detaining her without any testimony. Are you planning to abuse your authority?”

This casual sentence was like a thousand-pound stone that smashed into Don’s heart, making him unable to breathe.

He moved his lips, but no words came out.

“I’m curious. Who called the police?” Rachel suddenly asked. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Don frowned slightly and pursed his lips, looking like he had nothing to say.

Rachel smiled. You can’t tell me?”

Morris, who was watching from the side, was scratching his heart and lungs. Why was he still so stubborn at this juncture?!

He poked Don’s waist with his elbow and glared at him. Then, he looked at Rachel and smiled. “We’re all family. You don’t need to be so polite.”

In the end, Don reluctantly said, “Olivia Cruise.”

Upon hearing this name, the smile on Rachel’s lips deepened, making her gorgeous face look even more beautiful and alluring.

“So it’s her.”

At this moment, Olivia was walking out of the office and looking at the interrogation room where Rachel was being held.

She realized that the door of the interrogation room was open and there was no one inside.

She frowned and asked, “Where are the people inside?!”

The female police officer shook her head, indicating that she did not know either.

female police officer asked, “Jim, where are the people inside?”

tally, at this moment, the person in charge of interrogating Rachel passed by. A

“Don’t mention it. Captain Cole has met a tough nut to crack this time.” Jim shook his head and sighed. He was about to say something else when he noticed Olivia standing at the side. He swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and patted the female police officer’s shoulder. “Our captain is getting lectured in the chief’s office. If you have anything to say, it’s best to look for him tomorrow.”

After watching Jim leave, the female police officer looked at Olivia. “Miss Cruise, I’ll send you off.”

“Sorry to trouble you.” Olivia smiled distractedly. “By the way, I want to know how many years of jail someone convicted of illegal transaction like this will usually be sentenced

*to?”

The female police officer looked at Olivia with a polite and cold smile. “This case is not just a simple illegal transaction. It needs to be investigated further.”

She felt that something was wrong.

Therefore, Olivia was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she returned to the car and waited to see what would happen.

After a while, she saw a few cars parked in front of the police station, followed by a group of people.

She sat in the car and stared thoughtfully at the backs of the group of people. The corners of her lips suddenly curled into a smile.

Since Rachel had caused such huge trouble and attracted so much attention, she might as well add fuel to the fire!
