Chapter 693
A red Bentley sped on the road, heading for the police precinct.
“Ms. Quillen, Captain Shaw just called back!” Lexi, who was seated next to
Mackenzie, suddenly shouted in excitement.
“Answer it!” Mackenzie’s pretty eyes lit up a little, but she remained calm as
she ordered.
“Yes, Ms. Quillen!” Lexi answered the call.
“Hello, Ms. Quillen? Happy New Year. I heard you’re looking for me.” A
middle–aged man’s voice sounded from the other end of the line.
“Happy New Year too, Captain Shaw! Are you at the precinct? I need to talk to
you about something.”
It was an urgent situation, so Mackenzie had to make it short. She knew that
Emmanuel was a skilled fighter, but if he went into a place like that with his
hands and feet bound, he would suffer defeat sooner or later.
“Oh, what bad timing! I just retired before the new year!”
“What? You retired?”
Finlay Shaw’s reply shocked the ladies. Isn’t Captain Shaw only 51? Why did he
retire so soon?
Mackenzie was even more worried now. Was the Zelinksy family seriously
capable enough to control everything in Yeringham?!
“Haha, yes!” He guffawed and said, “People in my line of work are putting their
lives on the line. We’re no better than any ordinary men, and when we reach
our forties and fifties, our bodies are riddled with injuries. Our capabilities are
no longer suited for this position, so we should let the youngsters take over
instead.”
When Mackenzie heard that, she hastily asked, “Captain Shaw, if you retired
early, who’s taking over you?”
The Quillen family would maintain their public relations every year. Last year
was because of the fierce battle in the business field; since Finlay retired
early this year, they had not had any contact with the new captain.
“Oh, that man! He’s amazing!” Finlay’s tone of voice instantly changed. “He’s
only 30, but his resume and abilities are far above mine!”
