The Legendary Man novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125 Do Not Ask Questions

“Utter bullsh*t!” Thierry roared, cutting Jack’s explanation short. “Resisting arrest? What right do the police have to arrest Mr. Goldstein? Who gave you the right to do that?”

“He beat someone up, so the police have the right to arrest him!” Jack insisted.

As long as I insist it was Jonathan who took action first, I have a chance to survive the ordeal! Otherwise, things are going to end badly.

“Cut the crap. I’m going to ask you one last time. What happened?” Thierry demanded impatiently. How dare he claim that Mr. Goldstein was involved in a fight? No one will believe that. Plenty of lives had perished in the hands of Asura over the years! If he wants someone dead, that person will not have the chance to call the police, for he’ll kill that person without even blinking!

“I’m warning you, Tucker. Do you know the consequences of lying to me?” Thierry asked in a warning tone.

“I wasn’t lying!” Jack refused to cave in.

“So you refuse to spill the truth, huh?” Thierry didn’t want to waste more time here and promptly raised his voice. “Men, bring him back!”

“Yes, Sir!”

The soldiers swarmed around Jack and tied him up before dragging him to the military truck. He didn’t even have the opportunity to protest!

“Thierry Cloutier, I will report this matter to the governor! You’re doomed!” Rhett hollered angrily at the sight of Jack being brought into the military truck.

Jack’s the deputy police chief. If Thierry arrests him before me, this will be a black mark in my career! How am I supposed to go out and face the world after this embarrassing situation?

Alas, Thierry paid him no heed.

Right then, Duncan, who hadn’t said anything for a while, spoke up, “Commander Cloutier, don’t forget this person!” He was pointing at Nick.

“Who is he?” Thierry furrowed his brows.

“Jack Tucker’s son,” Duncan explained. He glared at Nick, who had paled visibly at his accusation. “It was he who called the police. Mr. Goldstein only beat him up after he made a pass at innocent young ladies.”

“Captain Sharpe, how could you?” Rhett scowled unhappily.

“Don’t blame me, Chief Barnstone. It was your deputy police chief who went overboard,” Duncan answered, his voice dripping with disdain.

I’m not a fool to side with them now. My experience came in handy. Even the top dog of the Divine Dragon Guards is bowing to Jonathan. A deputy police chief is nothing!

“He was the one who called the police?” Thierry frowned. He looked at Nick and exclaimed, “Young man, you’ve got the guts to make a pass at innocent young ladies in public, huh? Bring him back!”

“Yes, Sir!”

The soldiers promptly marched forward to carry out his order.

“Y-You can’t arrest me!” Nick’s face went pale at the sight of the soldiers coming for him. “What right do you have to arrest me? I did nothing wrong!”

“We’ll find out whether you commit a crime back at the military base,” Thierry concluded, rolling his eyes in exasperation.

“Let me go! You can’t arrest me!” Nick tried to free himself, but his slender figure was no match for the Special Forces members. A panicky look took over his face as he experienced a qualm of unease.

Bam! Someone kicked him in the stomach, and he instantly stopped struggling.
