Chapter 313
When the sky turned dark, only a few lights were on in the sealed police station. The interior was dark
Lorenzo stood in front of the glass window in the hall. The dim light cast the reflection and shadow of his tall figure on the glass mirror
“Boss, the higher–ups are already on their way. They will be taking the prisoners tonight,” Lorenzo’s subordinate, Yates Reaumont reported. Yates had grown up with Lorenzo in the army and was three months younger than him
The case had concluded Conrad Hospital had nothing to do with the case. It was because there were corruption and criminals in the agency. Those people responsible had all been arrested and dealt with according to the law.
Now, they would come and pick up those Lorenzo had arrested and detained to deal with as they should.
When Lorenzo heard this, his brows immediately furrowed. His face was filled with despair and unwillingness.
Yates’s heart ached when he saw this. Ever since Riverview Hospital’s incident, Lorenzo had been working under pressure. No, it started with the arrest of Larry and Neal
Lorenzo was heavily criticized in the entire circle for acting without authority. There were even people who suggested punishing him. If he wasn’t the youngest grandson of the Patton family, he would have been kicked out of the circle
Lorenzo hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in the last 50 days. For the past week, he had slept less than three hours a day.
What was even more serious was that the person in charge of the special organization was someone whose status was not inferior to Alex’s Lorenzo had gone up against that person several times and targeted them. He had already angered those people.
This wasn’t only about the case. It was also a power struggle between the military and the political world. Only one side could survive.
Looking at Lorenzo’s reflection in the glass mirror, Yates thought Lorenzo had lost a lot of weight. His cheeks were a little more prominent, and his nose looked even sharper. His face was also pale from exhaustion. The pressure Lorenzo was shouldering made Yate’s heart sche
“Boss, with our current positions, it’s already an exception for us to be able to do this. Everyone is whispering in private that the Patton family owns the military” Yates only wanted to highlight how well Lorenzo had done. “Let’s stop. We’ve done well by Miss Berry.”
As Lorenzo’s close subordinate, vice–captain, and secretary, Yates knew everything about Lorenzo. Lorenzo had done all these because of Lea. It was most likely because Joey had improved after his treatment at Riverview Hospital
Lorenzo turned around, his expression still serious. Im not doing this for Lea. Im doing this for myself. If I succeed, I will be promoted”
After getting rid of the higher–ups, there would be a few important high–level positions left vacant. If Lorenzo got promoted, there would be less competition
Lorenzo stated. “I am only doing what I should as a soldier.
It was unknown how serious this case was or how many hidden dangers there were. However, judging from the attack on Joey and Larry and Neal’s case, this area was due a clean–up.
Yates liked freedom and relaxation. Coupled with the fact that he had been on leave for more than a year, he hadn’t been feeling diligent. Now, he looked at Lorenzo in shock. He felt inspired. The soldier’s call in him had been awakened.
“Boss… What should we do? Yates asked.
Lorenzo couldn’t help but frown. If he could think of a way, he wouldn’t be simply waiting here.
Vroom vroom. The sound of a car could be heard from outside, Lights shone over.
Lorenzo turned and saw a car with a flag parked outside. He could not help bat narrow his eyes.
It was Alex’s car. It was old and looked old too, but the license plate number ended with “99” When such a car was on the road, everyone had to give way to it
Sure enough, Alex got out of the car. Due to his leg injury, he was walking with a lamp.
Jill naturally followed Alex. His sick father had come out so late at night and he was worried about letting him come alone. Besides, he wanted to
see his son.
“Boss, I’ll get back to work” Yates found an excuse and left.
Alex and Jill had come. They naturally wanted a family chat with Lorenzo. Moreover, the situation between Lorenzo and his family was so unique and complicated. Thus, Yates could not listen in and did not want to.
1127AM
Chapter 313
Upstairs, Dwayne was about to go downstairs to discuss with Lorenzo when he saw Jill and Alex arrive. He immediately returned to his office.
As a police chief transferred from a small town, Dwayne didn’t have any background. He naturally wasn’t qualified to take on such a case. He was only helping Lorenzo. In this situation, there was nothing he could do
Now that Dwayne saw Alex come, he couldn’t help but feel some anticipation
Alex and Jill entered and looked at Lorenza.
Alex’s background, there might be a turning point.
Lorenzo was a little surprised to see them, but he quickly calmed down. This time, he had almost stirred up the entire domain. Naturally, it would affect them. It would be abnormal for them not to come to him.
Jill looked at his youngest son and could not help but look at his old father. He was confused and expectant. This matter had alarmed the entire army. His son was naturally under a lot of pressure, jill wasn’t sure how to deal with the current situation.
Alex looked at his lule grandson. Lorenzo had always been very calm. Since the end of the war, there was nothing that could move him.
However, when Alex looked at his grandson’s facial features and eyes, which were similar to his own, he could see the pressure Lorenzo was facing. Heartache flashed in his eyes.
Alex’s elder grandson was raised by his side, so he naturally doted on him. His eldest grandson looked more like his mother. He looked exquisite and was extraordinarily handsome.
