Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1432

Chapter 1432 Resolved

"What are you laughing at? Are you looking down on me? I know that all of you think you're better than me. Well, guess what? Today, you will pay for Colton's mistakes!"

Ryan's emotions were escalating, and the speed at which he was brandishing the dagger in his hand was increasing rapidly.

"Freeze!"

The authoritative voice of the police echoed.

Ryan glanced at the police officers standing behind Isaac, his pupils dilating in surprise. He hadn't anticipated the police to intervene so swiftly.

Seeing the officers with their guns drawn, he immediately ceased his actions, dropped the knife to the ground, and raised his hands in surrender.

If he hadn't complied, his charges would have undoubtedly become greater.

Isaac, realizing the imminent danger had passed, felt his vision blur as he collapsed forward.

Before he fell, his gaze was locked onto a file nearby.

That was what Colton had been after. The obscure company listed inside might be the one they had been investigating.

"Isaac!"

Who was that calling his name?

He managed to open his eyes slightly, and Roxanna's concerned face swam into view.

How did she get here?

"The file… The file..."

He tried to articulate, but his words were becoming increasingly indistinct, and he eventually lost consciousness.

Roxanna leaned in to catch Isaac's fading words. She frantically scanned the area and spotted a sealed file, which she swiftly picked up.

He must have been referring to this.

Roxanna was cradling Isaac's head with one hand and clutching the file with the other.

She had received a cryptic message from Isaac earlier, but despite her numerous attempts to contact him, she received no response.

Upon reading the message, she knew she couldn't just stand by.

Luckily, she was in the vicinity, so she alerted the police and rushed to the scene.

"This is..."

Roxanna overheard the conversation between the police officers and pieced together the situation.

But this was beyond her capabilities.

"Miss, the suspect has been apprehended. We'll escort you to the hospital."

Roxanna sighed in relief. Isaac had merely fainted from exhaustion. A good rest would help him recover.

She glanced at the man who was sleeping peacefully. Even as she wondered how long he would sleep, she was glad he was resting.

Soon, she too began to feel drowsy. As she lay down at the edge of the bed, she gradually drifted off to sleep.

Colton had not received any updates and was growing anxious.

Normally, a small-time crook like Ryan would pose no threat to Isaac.

Why hadn't he heard anything from Isaac yet?

Colton frowned, worried.

"This tastes awful."

"If you don't like it, then don't eat it. Why complain and still continue eating?"

Their argument was escalating. It seemed like they were on the verge of a physical altercation if it wasn't stopped.

"Enough. Beryl, check on Isaac. Wendy, if you continue this squabble, return to your room."

At Colton's stern command, the two immediately fell silent and ceased their argument. They only shot each other a glare before they turned around and left.
