As a scion of a wealthy family, Davon had the reason to appear arrogant.
The enforcers, weak as they were, might have been afraid of offending the Todd family and chosen to retreat, but Gordon was known to be a tough nut, upright and resolute.
The more brazen and domineering Davon acted, the more Gordon wanted to eradicate this hypocritical "cancer".
With a cold smile, Gordon met Davon's gaze with dignity, "Master Davon, rest assured, I never wrong a good man and I will never let a villain go!"
Having been in this line of work for many years, Mr. Welch had long heard of Gordon's reputation.
At present, it was unknown what evidence the police held. If they clashed right now, the chances of winning were only fifty percent.
"Mr. Murillo, my client is a lawful citizen and would never engage in illegal activities. What entitles you to arrest him? According to judicial procedures, we have the right to demand removal of the handcuffs and exercise the right to bail," Mr. Welch began.
Before Mr. Welch could finish speaking, Thalia, seated nearby, rose from her seat in a fit of rage and began to shout at the multitude of police officers.
In her high heels, she rushed forward, grabbed Gordon by the collar, and began to hit and kick him.
Her dignified and refined demeanor was completely ruined, resembling a shrew in every way.
"You are not allowed to take away my son. What crime has he committed? Who accused him, and what evidence is there?" she bellowed.
Suddenly, a strange and husky voice came from behind.
The husky voice, tinged with a hint of sexiness, was unmistakably distinctive, leaving a strong impression.
"It was me who accused him!"
Cheyenne turned back in surprise to see a slender and striking figure slowly walking towards them, appearing to be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old.
The woman was dressed in a deep green silk kimono embroidered with small red peony patterns, the vibrant and exquisite colors complementing her slender figure.
She wore white silk socks and wooden clogs, presenting an image of grace and elegance by simply standing there.
Beside her, she held a three-year-old boy, as beautiful as a doll with delicate features.
Was this Master Lewis of the Todd family?
Everyone knew that Kai, in his old age, had fathered a pair of adorable twins, but they had never appeared in public, not even a single photo taken by the most renowned paparazzi in the country.
Now, finally, the twin boy's true face was revealed. It was startling to discover a very important piece of information. Upon closer inspection, the little boy's features bore a resemblance to Master Davon!
Thalia, raising her head, her angry face turned incredible.
'Sophie Todd... How could she be here? I have my men keep an eye on Sophie's every move in Jostrana. I gave Sophie the information that Kai's condition had improved considerably after taking the medicine and he would recover soon, but why did Sophie know the press conference today and show up?'
Thalia's fury suddenly shifted towards Sophie, who came straight at her, indignant, questioning, "Sophie, why would you slander your own brother like this? Don't forget who has been taking care of you all these years!"
Lewis was frightened and sought refuge in Sophie's embrace, his grape-like eyes filled with tears, pitiful and trembling like a small beast in the dark night.
He cried and tremblingly pointed a chubby, dirty finger at Thalia, his weak voice choking, "It... It's her. She's the one who killed my sister."
What! Thalia murdered one of the twins!
But that's not all. Sophie exposed a recorded conversation in public, which was a talk between Madam Thalia and Mr. Todd on the day of the incident.
