Chapter 98
Nighttime, in the interrogation room of the police station.
Dustin and Dahlia 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,” Dustin spoke first.
“They claimed you stole some valuables. Is that true?” Dahlia asked, cutting to the chase.
“What do you think?”
“You don’t look that bold to me, so my guess is someone is trying to frame you. Does this have anything to do with the Cobra?”
“The Cobra is merely a pawn. The mastermind is none other than Duane Welch.”
“Duane Welch? Are you talking about Sir Anderson?” Dahlia was dumbstruck. “Weren’t you on fairly good terms with him before? Did you strike a nerve? How?”
“I punched him,” Dustin admitted flatly.
“What?” Dahlia choked, struggling to keep her calm, “You You dared hit Sir Anderson! Are you out of your
mind?!”
Sir Anderson wasn’t just anyone–he was like a brother to Mr. Anderson. Not to mention being of the
prominent Welch family of Millsburg! He was someone even the vicious, unyielding Cobra would kneel to. Yet
Dustin dared place a hand on him, the epitome of digging one’s own grave!
“He hit me first. I only hit back in self–defense.” Dustin didn’t seem bothered in the slightest.
“Y–you act too rashly!” Dahlia fumed, “Who do you think Sir Anderson is? Do you think he’s someone you can
afford to offend? One order from him is all it takes to wipe you off the face of the earth!”
“Since I’ve already offended him, there’s nothing else we can do than go with the flow,” Dustin said with a
shrug.
“Easy for you to say, but do you think you can handle this?” Dahlia’s patience was running thin. She asserted, You better find an opening to call Natasha later. She’s the only one who can save you now!”
As the words left her tongue, she felt an acrid taste at the back of her throat. Although she wouldn’t admit it if she didn’t have to, there was no denying that there was no comparing herself to Natasha when it came to family background.
Suddenly, the metal door to the dark room creaked open, Interrupting their conversation. A man with a rotund beer belly appeared in the doorway and stepped into the room. He sat down on a chair and flicked the switch of the bright lamp on the desk.
The glare from the lamp made the two detainees squeeze their eyes shut Instinctively.
