“I can only hope you're not the culprit!” Darius warned Nick.
Then, he turned around and pleaded with the policeman, “Please conduct a thorough investigation to find out who attempted to harm Benjamin.”
“Rest assured, Old Mr. Graham. We will look into this. Please take care of your health.”
Darius was a retired commander, so he was highly respected among the police.
Darius nodded. “Thank you for your hard work.”
“You're welcome. In that case, we'll bring Mr. Nick back so that he can cooperate with us in our investigation,” the policeman notified Darius.
Darius waved his hand while glancing at Nick sternly.
“Bring him away. Do keep me updated regardless of the outcome.”
“In that case, we shall take our leave and stop disturbing you.”
The police gestured at Nick to follow them.
Nick tidied his clothes and had no choice but to comply.
“Nick!”
Nick's wife went after him in distress.
“Why are you following me? Stay here. It's not like I'll be detained forever!” He glared at his wife.
“Y-You...”
Nick's wife was overwrought as she witnessed her husband being taken away by the police. She hurriedly turned around to beg Darius, “Dad, how could you let them take Nick away? There's no way he would do something like this—”
“Do you think the police will wrong him if he's innocent?” Darius grimaced in anger. At the same time, his heart ached. The police wouldn't have come here to seize him if they hadn't gotten any definite leads.
He suddenly clutched his chest as his vision turned black.
“Dad!” Arissa cried out and lurched forward.
Benjamin was one step ahead of her. He grabbed Darius while searching the latter's pocket for his heart medication. He fed his father the pill and simultaneously called out to Shaun in anxiety.
“Shaun! Hurry up!”
Shaun hastened over to rescue Darius.
“Benjamin, send him to the hospital at once!”
“Ethen, get the car ready now!” Benjamin shouted.
He carried Darius on his back and ran toward the main house.
