"Howard, this is not a joking matter! How important is this big shot you talk about? Does he have a higher status than the state police chief, Clarke Yach? You should understand that the people in this state are inextricably connected. Clarke is not someone we can afford to piss off," Cidro said in a solemn tone.At that moment, Howard was so anxious as he sat in the car that he was covered in sweat, feeling stunned by his brother's words. Of course, he knew Clarke was not to be messed with. However, the situation at hand was different. The person he offended was the only five-star commander-in-chief in Biskeland.Howard remembered that Liam wanted to keep his identity a secret. That was why he did not tell Cidro about it.Hearing Howard fall silent, Cidro thought he got through to him. He then continued earnestly, "Howard, I've told you more than once not to be impulsive. Clarke has been the state police chief for years. The connections he has is not to be taken lightly—"Before C

"I explained to them that Yankel is under investigation for attempted rape, so he can't be bailed. But Mrs. Bristow refused to listen and kept making a scene. She even hit our police officers."Then, Mr. Liam Cole, husband of the victim, Ms. Celena Stone, showed up. Mr. Bristow insisted that it was Mr. Cole who framed Yankel. She wanted us to release Yankel and arrest Mr. Cole. They are confronting each other now," Zeke explained.Of course, Howard already knew what happened. He just had to ask for formalities. After he heard Zeke's reports, his expression darkened, and he stared at Yousef icily."Mr. Yousef Bristow, Yankel is detained on my orders. He's involved in a case of attempted rape. The case is being investigated right now. That's why he can't be bailed for now. If your son is found innocent after the investigation is done, he'll be released," Howard said frostily.Yousef's expression got increasingly darker as he listened to Howard. He looked at Howard's frosty and threat

How impudent of the damned Howard!Once Clarke finished his cigarette in frustration, he grabbed his phone as he wanted to call Howard. He wanted to tell Howard to release Yankel right away or he would give him hell.However, right as Clarke unlocked his phone and before he found Yousef's contact, someone pushed his door open aggressively.The sudden sound frightened Clarke so much that he jumped. By the time he regained his senses, he saw his secretary rushing in, looking panicked.Feeling upset, Howard barked, "What the hell is going on? Don't you know how to knock?"The secretary was in a panic, and he was panting hard as he said, "Something happened, sir. Something bad happened. Several people from the Discipline Inspection Commission are here. They said they are here to investigate you. They are already—""What?" Clarke cut the secretary off in shock, so much so that his phone fell on the table.He thought he misheard his secretary, so he asked again while looking nervous a

The chain of reaction that happened after Clarke fell turned the Yach family into a hot mess.After Cidro and Clarke arrived at the Discipline Inspection Commission, Clarke's phone rang. A frosty glint gleamed in Cidro's eyes once he took a look at the caller ID, and he picked it up right away.Yousef's anxious voice could be heard coming from the other end of the call, saying, "Chief Clarke, the police in Drunham City are still refusing to release Yankel. Also, Howard Mosier, the chief of Drunham City Police Station is right in front of me. Hurry up and call him, tell him to immediately—"Before Yousef finished his sentence, he heard an unfamiliar voice coming from the phone. He was stunned when he heard the unfamiliar voice of a middle-aged man. He quickly glanced at the number on his phone and saw that it was Clarke's number.Only then did Yousef ask icily, "Who are you? Where is Chief Clarke? I'm looking for him. Put him on the phone."Cidro chuckled and said, "You're Yousef B

"Well done. Great job. Oh yes, your brother is the deputy commissioner for the Discipline Inspection Commission, isn't he?" Liam asked.Howard's eyes twinkled as soon as he heard that, and he quickly replied, "Yes! Nevaeh Scott is my brother's daughter. She took her mother's last name. She has a bad temper and has offended many young men and women from eminent families. "She was then sent to Drunham City by my brother as he wanted her to learn from the ground up. I wonder when she will learn to conduct herself properly around others."Liam searched his brain and recalled who Howard was talking about. He asked, "Oh? Nevaeh is your niece?"Howard knew what his niece did, so he smiled apologetically and said, "Yes, Mr. Cole. My niece didn't know who you were and has offended you. I hope you'll forgive her."She has been spoiled since she was a child, and she's impatient, hates the evil to her guts, and is also impulsive. I've given her a stern lecture after what happened."Liam did
