Chapter 1713
The man replied, “About 9:00 a.m.”
On the other side of the town, in the precinct…
The two officers who had the night shift brought Ean into an interrogation room, and Nollace was already in the room.
Ean was handcuffed walked up to the seat across Nollace, and sat down. “Perhaps, what you said is right.”
Nollace glanced at him while tapping on the table with his knuckles. “You should thank the officers for arriving at the scene in time. Otherwise, you’d be a corpse by now.”
Their deal that night was that Ean would become a witness of the case, and he would keep Maggie safe. Ean was an accomplice as he had eradicated the evidence of Ken killing Mr. Reese for Ken. Hence, in order to avoid being wanted by the police, Ken would definitely get Ean to be his scapegoat. Nollace bet on the fact that Ken would rather trust his own judgment than trust Ean to take the fall for him willingly.
If he wanted to be safe and sound , Ean must disappear from this world. As long as Ean was dead, there would no
longer be any proof, neither evidence nor witness,
Ken wanted to get rid of Ean secretly, but he did not know that the police had been waiting for them from the shadows at Ean’s residence- that was why Ean was saved.
“Is Maggie safe?” he asked. Nollace responded indifferently, “ken can’t even save his own *ss now. It’s only natural for him not to have the time to burden himself with how Maggie is doing. My men have transferred her to a safe place, so don’t worry.”
Ean did not utter a single word. Nollace got up slowly and reassured him, “Don’t worry about it. Although you’re an accomplice, the law will be more lenient for your crime since you’re willing to testify in court. And I’ve found you a lawyer. Throughout this lawsuit, I’ll try to ensure that the punishment you take for the crime is the least you deserve. And Maggie will wait for you to complete your sentence.”
Ean lowered his gaze. “Thank you.”
Nollace walked out of the precinct. The headlights of the car parked in the dark compound were still turned on, and Edison was waiting for him in the car,
When he got into the car, Edison said, “Ken left his residence with his men. He doesn’t dare to take a flight openly. It seems that he’s come up with other routes and is planning to escape from the country.”
