Chapter 693

A red Bentley sped on the road, heading for the police precinct.

“Ms. Quillen, Captain Shaw just called back!” Lexi, who was seated next to

Mackenzie, suddenly shouted in excitement.

“Answer it!” Mackenzie’s pretty eyes lit up a little, but she remained calm as

she ordered.

“Yes, Ms. Quillen!” Lexi answered the call.

“Hello, Ms. Quillen? Happy New Year. I heard you’re looking for me.” A

middle–aged man’s voice sounded from the other end of the line.

“Happy New Year too, Captain Shaw! Are you at the precinct? I need to talk to

you about something.”

It was an urgent situation, so Mackenzie had to make it short. She knew that

Emmanuel was a skilled fighter, but if he went into a place like that with his

hands and feet bound, he would suffer defeat sooner or later.

“Oh, what bad timing! I just retired before the new year!”

“What? You retired?”

Finlay Shaw’s reply shocked the ladies. Isn’t Captain Shaw only 51? Why did he

retire so soon?

Mackenzie was even more worried now. Was the Zelinksy family seriously

capable enough to control everything in Yeringham?!

“Haha, yes!” He guffawed and said, “People in my line of work are putting their

lives on the line. We’re no better than any ordinary men, and when we reach

our forties and fifties, our bodies are riddled with injuries. Our capabilities are

no longer suited for this position, so we should let the youngsters take over

instead.”

When Mackenzie heard that, she hastily asked, “Captain Shaw, if you retired

early, who’s taking over you?”

The Quillen family would maintain their public relations every year. Last year

was because of the fierce battle in the business field; since Finlay retired

early this year, they had not had any contact with the new captain.

“Oh, that man! He’s amazing!” Finlay’s tone of voice instantly changed. “He’s

only 30, but his resume and abilities are far above mine!”

Mackenzie and Lexi exchanged glances, their breaths getting a little heavier.

“His name is Sage Payne, and he just returned after he retired from a

mysterious military unit. They call him the Jade Beast. I heard that he had

slain countless enemies on the battlefield, and he has a terrifying murderous

aura coming from him. He’s especially skilled at interrogation; there was

once when he relied purely on his aura to intimidate an underground boss.

The guy was so scared that he lost his wits!” His tone was filled with

amazement and respect. It was apparent that he acknowledged the man

from the depths of his heart.

Lexi was even more anxious as she looked at Mackenzie. Although there were

not any noticeable changes in Mackenzie’s expression, Lexi could sense her

slight unease.

“Thank you, Captain Shaw.” Mackenzie ended the call personally, then fell

silent. She had no idea if the new captain was a friend or foe. If he were their

enemy, then Emmanuel would be in deep trouble!

Meanwhile, in a small room, Deon Harvey shouted, “Stop!”

Ashton was still fuming, but in the end, she stopped and left the room

furiously. Emmanuel felt aggrieved; he had obediently cooperated in the

investigation but merely refused to get beaten up. How was that offending

anybody?

He thought that Deon was a decent person, but unexpectedly, after the

woman left, Deon gave two subordinates a look. One of them shut the door

while the other turned off the surveillance. Instantly, Emmanuel had a bad

feeling about this. Could Deon be pretending to stop Ashton but revealing his

fangs after the surveillance was turned off?

Just as expected, a jet–black muzzle was aimed at Emmanuel when the

subordinates had completed their tasks. “Kid, I’ll cut to the chase. Hurry and

confess everything! Did you kill Hayden Hamilton or not?” Deon interrogated

straight away, seeming as if he never considered Emmanuel important at all.

him of assaulting an officer! No matter how skilled Emmanuel was in martial

arts, he still had to cower before a weapon!
