Now that Chief Carr was reproaching him, sweat kept streaming down Carol’s forehead. He fell into a panic since he could also feel the anger in Chief Carr’s tone.
"Chief Carr, I did that in the heat of the moment. Now I know I’m wrong." Carol explained in haste, hoping that Chief Car would give him another chance. It couldn’t be better if he was given another chance by Chief Carr.
However, Carol was being too naive about this. Ever since Chief Carr had seen Maximilian in handcuffs, he gave up the idea of giving Carol another chance.
Carol took a deep breath, feeling that he was probably doomed this time. Chief Carr said flatly, "You don’t have another chance now. From now on, take a voluntary turnover and stay away from the government office. I won’t leave anything bad on your record, but don’t you ever think of getting into the government office again."
Hearing that, Carol was totally stunned. He had thought that Chief Carr would punish him, but never expected that Chief Carr’s punishment would be so harsh.
"Chief Carr, I know I’m wrong. I won’t make mistakes again." Carol said hurriedly.
No matter how Carol pleaded, Chief Carr didn’t bother glancing at him. Carol felt that suddenly he didn’t know what to do with his life, so he stared at his younger brother with an indifferent look.
If it weren’t for his younger brother, such awful thing wouldn’t have happened to him. Now, Carol couldn’t be more angry.
Taking notice of his elder brother’s stare, Mell argued first, "Carol, I didn’t mean to drag you into this mess. It’s just that I didn’t know he was on good terms with Chief Carr."
A hint of coldness flashed across Carol’s eyes. He gave Mell a kick subconsciously and snarled, "It’s all because of you! Why did you ask me to come here? You could have dealt with the situation yourself."
Carol really regretted having a hand in the affair. If he could keep his job by breaking off with his younger brother, he would cut off the relation with him right now.
However, Carol was aware that this was an impossibility. He was bearing resentment, and could only vent it on himself. Suddenly, Mell was beaten up and kept writhing around on the floor.
Everyone sighed, but showed no sympathy at all. It could only be said that the brothers asked for it.
"Hello." Chief Car stretched out his hand to Connor with a smile and said.
Connor hesitated for a few seconds and offered his hand at once. In the past, his status was almost the same with Chief Carr’s, but now, Chief Carr’s status was far higher than his.
However, Chief Carr should give Connor his hand first, which made Connor feel at a loss inevitably.
The reason why Chief Carr shook hand with Connor was rather simple, and it was because Connor was Maximilian’s friend. Besides, Connor had saved Maximilian’s life again and again. In Chief Carr’s opinion, such a friend was well worth making.
Something popped into Maximilian’s mind. Connor was always worried about his dark history. He had given up the old business because he wanted to tone it down.
Maximilian also witnessed the moment when Connor got interested as he heard the claim raised by Mell, so he decided to help Connor this time.
"Chief Carr, I have a favor to ask you." Maximilian said.
Chief Carr asked immediately, "Mr. Lee, if there’s anything I can do, please tell me. I’ll try my best to do it."
"Actually it’s a small favor. Connor has such a dark history. Since he has become better now, how about just wiping it out?" Maximilian said flatly, "Even if you can’t wipe the slate clean, just wipe out one piece or two would also suffice."
"Of course I can do it." Chief Carr appreciated Connor very much. Even if Maximilian didn’t mention it, he would also be glad to do Connor such a favor when he got closer to Connor later.
