“Get in the car!”

Jack pulled off his sunglasses and whistled. “Tell me I’m not the hottest guy you’ve ever seen.”

Scarlett silently took a step back. Maybe it was time to call in someone from Neurology to check Jack’s brain.

Thankfully, a Cullinan pulled up behind him moments later. When she saw who was driving, she didn’t hesitate-she opened the door and got in.

“Mr. Fletcher, why are you driving yourself?”

Jasper’s hand rested calmly on the steering wheel as he stared at the flashy yellow car in front

of them.

“Because you’re riding in it personally too.”

Scarlett muttered, “You really know how to kill a conversation.”

Only then did Jasper turn his head to look at her

Sunlight filtered through the window; it cast a halo of light around him.

“Heading to the station?”

Scarlett’s attention shifted immediately.

“You already knew? Mr. Fletcher, are you some kind of 360-degree surveillance scanner?”

The corner of Jasper’s mouth lifted slightly.

“No.”

Scarlett choked.

“Got a cold?”

“No, I’m just dying inside.”

Jasper went quiet.

Up ahead, the flashy yellow convertible sped off looking like it was muttering curses the whole way.

“The cops showing up at school isn’t exactly a secret in the student group chat.”

He offered a brief explanation,

Doing his best not to kill the vibe.

Scarlett shot back, “Aren’t you a teacher? What are you doing lurking in a student group chat? That’s kind of shady.”

Jasper’s expression didn’t even twitch.

“Jack told me.”

Scarlett immediately understood.

“Ah, that makes sense… and yeah, that definitely seemed like it. Mr. Fletcher, are you going to the station too?”

Only then did Scarlett realize-if they weren’t heading the same way, she could just order a car on her own.

Jasper nodded and said, “The Robert family case

Scarlett gave a knowing nod.

The Robert family incident involved a lot of people; it was probably still in the evidence collection and investigation phase.

Jasper had led the charge in the Robert family’s downfall, and he was related to them.

So heading to the police station for an update made perfect sense.

She let out a soft sigh

And pressed a hand to her chest. I almost thought they were giving me a personal escort.

Then Jack called.

“Pixel, you’ve really broken my heart. I made a bet with Jasper that if we both came to drive you to the station, you’d definitely choose me. But what did you do? You turned your head and left-like you’d made up your mind and never looked back.”

Scarlett went quiet.

“Pixel, why aren’t you saying anything? Did Jasper scare you again? Listen to me, he’s just a nobody. Don’t be afraid!”

After hearing that, Scarlett instinctively glanced at the driver’s seat beside her.

The man’s profile was devastatingly handsome.

She quickly looked away.

“Got it. Talk later.”

She hung up in a hurry.

For a second, she really wanted to block Jack.

This guy was just as ruthless with his friends as he was with his enemies.

Close call, Jasper nearly caught on.

Thankfully, Jasper’s expression didn’t change; he remained focused on the road.

Only then did she fully relax.

Ten minutes later, inside the police station.

Besides the three who’d been brought in from school, Eugene and Stanley were also stuck in the lobby.

Stanley had just finished his interview-he looked like a deflated balloon, or a rooster that had lost a fight.

Eugene was still asking for details.

And the rest of the Joyner family had just arrived, eager to find out the truth.

“What the heck is going on? How dare the police mess with our whole family like this?”

Franklin’s face was dark, already pulling out his phone to call a lawyer.

“I’m going to make them pay!”

“I’ll make sure they understand-the Joyner family isn’t to be trifled with!”

He hadn’t been able to vent at the school gates or in the squad car;

He was about to explode.

The officers had gone to report back to their superiors and would return later for formal questioning.
