My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 1007

Chapter 1007 James Has Been Arrested

James’ caring tone warmed Ashlyn's heart. “I'm fine.”

Lucas patted the back of James' hand and disclosed, “Aside from Spencer, who only suffered minor injuries, a few of my subordinates were impaired.”

“The city council will definitely issue a pension for them,” replied James hastily. “Last night was incredibly dangerous. You two really...”

Joseph was feeling similarly emotional and lightly punched Lucas. “What the heck's wrong with you? Why didn't you tell me?”

“It was too dangerous—” Before Lucas could finish his sentence, a few armed police officers barged into the office and quickly surrounded the group.

Lucas frowned and glared at the police captain who had aided him the night before. “What's the meaning of this?”

“I'm sorry. I'm just doing my job,” the captain apologized resignedly before turning to James and instructing, “Take him away!”

The moment he ended his sentence, two officers approached and handcuffed James.

In an instant, the tension in the room became so thick that one could cut the air with a knife.

Everyone was bewildered by the scene unfolding before their eyes.

Even the police chief exclaimed in disbelief, “What are you doing, Captain Lewis? Why are you apprehending Mr. Field?” Why did he come in here with armed officers, ignore me, the police chief, and arrest Mr Field? What's going on?

Lucas stepped forward and blocked the captain's path. "Please clarify the situation, Captain Lewis.”

"I'm only responsible for arresting him. If you want to know more, you'll have to wait for the higher-up's announcement." Rykard Lewis was troubled by the issue as well. It's a lot of pressure for me to arrest the mayor of Lake City, okay?

“Did you know what you did to warrant this, Dad?” Joseph asked anxiously before turning to Rykard. “My dad is an upstanding man. Did you make a mistake?”
