Chief Brennan was practically gasping for air as he spoke.
The officer's expression was a mix of surprise and disbelief as he recognized the chief. "Ch-Chief?"
Chief Brennan snapped, "I'm speaking to you. Hurry up and let go!"
"Chief Brennan, you’ve trained your subordinates well. I’m filing a complaint, and he wants to take me away. It's funny." Freya spoke without amusement in her voice.
Seeing Freya irritated, Chief Brennan broke out in a cold sweat. "Yes, it's my fault for not properly training my team, Ms. Dawson. I apologize for startling you!"
Watching the typically stern Chief Brennan bending backward for a woman, the officer couldn't help but ask, "Chief, who is this?"
"This is Ms. Dawson! Who gave you the right to apprehend Ms. Dawson? Have you lost your mind? If you don't value your life, I value mine! Release her immediately!"
"Chief, please don't be upset. I've explained everything to this officer, but it seems it didn't quite sink in."
With a sarcastic smile plastered on her face, Freya spoke. Chief Brennan, feeling the heat, quickly chimed in, "These are just the newbies, still learning the ropes. Ms. Dawson, please don't take it personally!"
Witnessing the scene, the neighbors exchanged puzzled glances. Who was this Ms. Dawson to make the chief so deferential?
