Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534 He Has A Neurological Disorder

The entire police station was filled with elite officers who had been transferred over to investigate the matter.

Unfortunately, they were unable to make any progress on the case after an entire day.

Neal had given them an ultimatum—three days to find the mastermind.

Meanwhile, the young police chief was sitting in his office, brimming with anxiety.

As he went through the information provided one by one, repeated sighs could be heard in between his sips of coffee.

He was worried about his inability to find any suspects so far.

Cedrick suspected Paul, who was a count from Ospea. Given his important station, it was difficult for the police to investigate the latter unless they had concrete proof to back up their accusation.

Taking such action would, after all, affect the relations between Astoria and Ospea.

On the other hand, if Paul wasn't investigated, the chief would have a hard time explaining it to Cedrick.

It would also affect the foreign relations between Chanaea and Astoria.

Finally, if he couldn't find anything, he would not only be given a hard time by Neal but also be relieved of his position.

The predicament he was in made him feel trapped.

While going through the unsettling information that had yet to yield a lead, he finished his third cigarette without even realizing it.

Just as he was lost in his frustration, a knock on the door was heard.

“Come in,” he barked impatiently.

A uniformed officer subsequently entered.

“Sir, there's a lady outside who claims to have knowledge about the incident and wants to help you.”

“Help me?” The chief adjusted his tie in an annoyed manner before letting out a snort. “Who is she?”

“She says she's Count Hall's girlfriend, Ms. Annie.”

Oh? She's another big shot.

“Bring her in and prepare a cup of cappuccino.”

“Yes, Sir.”

A few minutes later, the officer led Annie into the chief's office.

The young chief invited her to have a seat on the couch.

Wearing a gentle smile, Annie appeared genuine.

“Ms. Annie, did you come here with some evidence for us?”

Annie nodded. “I know very well what your current concerns are and have a plan to solve the dilemma you're facing. You'll be able to provide everyone with a satisfactory answer. On top of that, you get to keep your position as chief too.”

The chief cocked a skeptical brow. After all, the lady before him was still very young despite her beauty.

Since he had no better option, he decided to listen to what she had to say. “Tell me about it.”

Having applied exquisite makeup, Annie looked innocent and adorable with her captivating smile.
