Chapter 193 Instant Regret The door to the interrogation room was kicked open.

Jerwas belligerent. He had been shaking since receiving Otis' phone call.

He never thought anyone would be foolish enough to arrest the new Secretary-General. As if that wasn't bad enough, the fools also accused the Secretary-General of assaulting an officer on duty.

Unfortunately for Jerome, those fools were none other than his subordinates.

At this point, he doubted he could be Chief Commissioner of the police force for much longer.

On his way to the Ravenwood police precinct, Jerprayed that Adam had enough sense to restrain himself during the interrogation.

Jermade dozens of calls to Adam, but the latter did not pick up.

Jerwished his car could go faster. In the end, he arrived at the police precinct too late.

He knew the end was near when he got to the interrogation room.

Next to Jerome, Otis looked stormy as he assessed the situation before him. It was clear to see that Adam and his co-workers were trying to force a confession out of the arrestees.

When Otis saw Dom pressing the front of his chest, his blood boiled.

"Adam!" Otis barked. He wanted nothing more than to rid Southdale of Adam right now.

Adam was still glowering at Wynter and the others when Otis called out to him.

He didn't bother to look at Otis as he snapped, "Anyone who isn't part of this case, get out! You're obstructing official business!" Having gotten used to being in charge, Adam never looked at a person before speaking to them.

When he finally bothered to turn around, he froze. "M-Mr. Grayson? M-Mr. Buch..." He was so stunned he couldn't even address Otis properly. He had no idea what the deputy mayor was doing at a small, local precinct such as Ravenwood's.

Adam felt his knees go weak. However, basic manners demanded that he regain his composure.

Chapter 193 Instant Regret He flashed Otis and Jera smile as he made to greet them.

Just then, an icy voice drawled behind him, "If Mr. Buchanan hadn't shown up, I would have called the top brass and had them transfer a new Secretary-General to Southdale instead.

Especially since Southdale is the kind of place where a police captain could teachto play by the rules." Adam trembled at these words. He nearly fainted. The color drained from his face as he gaped at the three arrestees whom he had condescended to earlier.

He collapsed into the interrogator's chair and stammered, "T-The three of you..." Realizing now that the Secretary-General thing hadn't been a lie, Adam panicked. He couldn't believe he had been so disrespectful to a big shot like that.

Even Otis felt a chill run down his spine. "Mr. Keller, I believe there's been a misunderstanding." He wanted to tell Lucas how he had wanted to teleport over as soon as he got the news. He wouldn't have dared to dawdle.

Lucas countered calmly, "Misunderstanding? Would you care to enlightenon what I've misunderstood, Mr. Buchanan?\ That I just got accused of lying about my identity, or that a confession was almost forced out of this young lady?" The latter part made Otis recall his phone conversation with Jackson earlier.

He immediately glanced at the long-haired young lady next to Dom.

His stomach turned leaden at once.

While he was at the Chamber of Commerce, he'd been invited to dine with the head of the Yates family before the latter left.

The young man who presided over the Yates family had told Otis that his lover was in Southdale.

However, she was young and demure by nature. Worried that she might get picked on because of this, he had asked Otis to keep an eye on her. Otis had only just received the young lady's photo yesterday. Now, here she was in the flesh and being questioned by the police.

To make matters worse, she nearly had a criminal record to her name! Chapter 193 Instant Regret 3/3

Otis couldn't hold back his anger anymore as he kicked Adam. He did not bother with decorum as he snapped at the police captain, "You useless fool!"

Adam's arrogance was now replaced by fear and cowardice as heexplained, "Mr. Buchanan, Mr.

Grayson, I didn't mean for things to get this far. I didn't know he was the..."
