“Ralph, are you hearing yourself?!” Owen’s heart skipped a beat, and he scolded sternly. “I am your superior, and the one whose life was in danger. I was attacked by criminals tonight! Yet you want to take me back to the police station? If word got out, can you bear the responsibility?!”
Justin looked at Ralph with a worried gaze.
Although Justin was not a government official, he understood the power dynamics that came with rank.
“I’ve assigned people to seal off this entire street. What happened tonight will not get out, not just because of your reputation, but also to prevent spreading panic among the public. I don’t want the people who live here to be in fear when they go out at night.”
Ralph curled his lips slightly, his handsome face fearless, but his tone was firm and undeniable. “Besides, you’ve also said these criminals are here for you. You are the victim. According to the procedure, you should come back to the station to give your statement and let us protect you. After all, you’re my superior and not to be taken lightly, right?”
Owen was rendered speechless.
Justin slightly narrowed his eyes, his admiration for Ralph deepening in his heart.
Who said that Ralph was merely a brute?
Bella was indeed her dear brother’s number-one hater.
……
In the early morning, the interrogation room was dark and the air was tense.
Owen lowered his head as he sat on the cold chair, not speaking a word about anything other than what happened tonight.
“We’re stuck, Captain Ralph. No matter how we questioned him, Deputy Chief Hopkins refused to speak.”
His colleague was worried. “The Chief already knows about this and asked that we release Deputy Chief Hopkins after the routine questioning. Otherwise, he would definitely hold you accountable, and you might be suspended!
