In the interrogation room, Ian sat silently next to Steven.
His eyes were bright, glistening with unshed tears, as he watched Steven transform into a formidable shield, protecting him from the harsh interrogation.
If it weren’t for the fact that Ian had a girl he liked, he might have fallen for Steven right there and then.
Although Steven looked calm, he felt deeply uneasy. The entire situation seemed suspicious.
The police seemed eager to blame Ian, worried he might expose their true motives. Even simple drug possession as a buyer carried a minimum 6-month sentence.
Any conviction, no matter how minor, would be a devastating blow to Ian’s career as the chief secretary to the president of the Salvador Corporation, effectively ruining his future.
In a separate room, Horace, the Southern Star Syndicate Gang member who sold drugs to Ian, was having a private conversation with his lawyer, Peter Lang.
“The Southern Star Syndicate strictly prohibits its members from getting involved with drugs. You’re well aware of this. However, your recent actions have made Mr. Jenkins extremely furious,” Peter said, his expression grim.
Thinking of Watson’s ruthless reputation, Horace turned as pale as a sheet, trembling so much that his chair creaked.
“Mr. Jenkins has given you two options. One, you take all the blame yourself. Tell the police that the drugs were yours, and you secretly placed them in Ian’s pocket out of spite. This whole thing was your doing, and Ian had nothing to do with it.”

Too many errors in grammar and some chapters in different languages made it too hard to read. I couldn’t finish it....
