Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 916

"So, Mr. Warren, why don't you turn around and head back where you came from?" Elon said dismissively.

Donald chuckled inwardly, mocking, 'If it weren't for your family name, you'd be nothing. You're playing with fire going up against Mr. Lloyd. You'll end up just like Winston.'

Nonetheless, he kept his tone polite. "You're absolutely right, Mr. Golding. A small-town police commissioner like me is hardly worth your attention. I'm just a nobody, right?"

He paused, then added, "But if you could just tell me where Ms. Aicker is being held, I can bring Mr. Thatcher into this to handle the matter properly."

Elon's expression darkened. "Are you threatening me with Mark? Get out of here. I don't know anything about this Francesca person. You're wasting your time."

Donald kept his smile plastered on his face. "If you insist, Mr. Golding, then my team and I will have to conduct a search. If we find any evidence, I'm afraid we'll have to hold you accountable."

Kenny waved his hand impatiently. "Go ahead, search all you want. If you find anything, do whatever you need to do."

Elon sneered. "I've booked the entire Jayrodale Grand Hotel for today. I'll cooperate with your search, but if you come up empty-handed, I'll be filing a formal complaint with your superiors."

Donald nodded calmly. "We're just doing our job. If we don't find anything, you're free to file a complaint or take any action you see fit."

With that, Donald and his team began their search of the hotel.

Kenny smirked as they left. "Looks like Andrew finally caught on, but involving the police won't help him. They're useless."

Elon shrugged, looking completely unbothered. "I was just putting Donald in his place. Francesca isn't even in this hotel. They could search all year and find nothing. This Andrew guy is way out of his depth. He doesn't stand a chance against me."
