Who Knew My Assigned Mechanic Husband Was a Big Shot? novel Chapter 150

The moment Shane laid eyes on Walter, he instinctively sat up a little straighter despite the pain.

Walter had the kind of face that smiled on the surface but radiated the sheer terror of the Grim Reaper. Just a single glance from him felt like taking a knife to the gut, making Shane shrink down in his seat.

Shane finally realized he had kicked a steel wall.

The doctors at this hospital were heavily protected by some extremely dangerous people.

The interrogation commenced.

Zoe recounted the ambush and the extortion attempt, followed by Logan giving his witness statement, leaving Shane with no choice but to confess.

Because Shane had attempted extortion and physical intimidation, he was slapped with a mandatory seven-day detention.

Then, Walter leaned forward, his voice dangerously low. "You mentioned someone spreading rumors that my doctors were butchering patients?"

Shane rapidly shifted the blame, desperate to save his own skin. "I heard it from Brenda Gable! She works at the Garrison Mess Hall. She swore it was the absolute truth and claimed Arthur Quinn's daughter-in-law told her directly."

Walter half-closed his eyes, calculating for a few seconds.

Then he spoke. "Tomorrow, you're coming with me to the Mess Hall. We're going to have a little face-to-face chat."

At noon the next day.

Walter rounded up Sloane and Zoe, announcing they were taking a trip to the Garrison Mess Hall to track down Brenda Gable.

Sloane, who detested public confrontations, hesitated. "Isn't this going to cause a massive scene?"

Walter let out a dark chuckle. "I can see you don't have much experience dealing with scumbags. Swallowing your pride and playing the victim is a terrible habit to form."

Sloane: "..."

Fine, they would go. With Walter backing her up, she had nothing to fear.

Walter retrieved Shane from the police station, and the group marched toward the military base.

When Sloane saw Shane again, the thug glared at her with pure hatred. That kick she delivered last night had left him in agony until this morning. He was just thankful his balls hadn't been busted completely.

But the moment Walter shot him a lethal side-eye, Shane's aggression vanished instantly.

Sloane felt a flutter of nerves in her chest, but she maintained a cool, detached expression.

She thought to herself: If this thug tries anything again, I'll kick him a second time.
