Chapter 194 No Way Out

Otis was usually affable, but even he was outraged by what Adam had done. “Regardless of who he is,

you shouldn’t be arresting anyone without proper grounds!”

Adam shamelessly turned to Jerome. “Mr. Grayson, you know I’ve always maintained my

professionalism at work.”

Jerome didn’t want to be associated with Adam at all. “That’s enough out of you, Adam! Officers, take

him away!”

Initially, Jerome planned on covering up as many scandals and bad track records as possible before

Lucas‘ arrival.

He’d even reminded every precinct under his command to do the same. He had been convinced that

Lucas wouldn’t be able to find any dirt on his precincts if they covered their tracks well enough.

More importantly, he didn’t want to get on Lucas‘ bad side.

However, what Adam just did gave Lucas enough reason to look into the precincts‘ past

activities.

Jerome would be wise to keep Adam quiet.

At Jerome’s command, the interrogators made to seize Adam.

At that moment, Wynter spoke from where she stood in the center of the room. Her tone was soft, and

she sounded nothing like a civilian who had just been arrested.

She even smiled as she said, “Hold on, Mr. Grayson. I’m the suspect here, and I think I have the right

to decide how and when this case is closed.”

Wynter wouldn’t let these officers release her so quickly, not when they had wrongfully arrested her.

She refused to let them get away with this that easily.

She had always believed in retribution.

Wynter never planned on brushing off this incident. After all, these officers had accused her of

wrongdoing and tried to set her up.

That said, she’d been surprised when Dom and his friend showed up when the arrest took place.

Taking revenge on these officers was as easy as shooting fish in a barrel. There was no way Wynter

would let this chance slide, especially not after all the plotting she’d done.

Looking at Jerome, she said slowly, “I’d like to hear what Captain Weissman has to say,”

Jerome’s heart dropped to his stomach when he heard this.

It was only then that he properly looked at Wynter. She was beautiful, with skin like double cream and

dazzling eyes. It was hard for anyone to not notice her looks right away,

However, upon closer inspection, Jerome sensed that she was not a naive young lady, Despite

Wynter’s age, there was a sharpness in her eyes that told him she missed nothing,

In all his years of working cases, Jerome had never met any young person with Wynter’s calm

presence and knowing gaze.

Jerome had been eager to wrap this case up,

but now he feared that would not happen.

Much to his dismay, Adam piped up hopefully like an idiot, “Mr. Grayson, the suspect wants to hear me

out!“.

Jerome gritted his teeth. He dared not give Adam any implicating looks, since Otis and Lucas were

both staring at him. As such, he clenched his fists,

However, Dom was bright enough to catch on. “Well, the captain does owe us an explanation as to why

he arrested this young lady.

She’s an excellent student who gives free medical consultations to the residents of Harmony

Community.”

Otis‘ blood ran cold at the mention of Harmony Community.

He had heard about the youngster who was new to the community and adored by the leaders.

Impressive medical skills aside, the youngster was also said to be extremely fair and level-

headed.

The leaders were known to have high standards, but they would laud the youngster with praise

whenever her name came up in conversations.

At this point, Otis was so angry he could combust on the spot. He pointed at Adam angrily and said,

“You…”

He came close to cussing at Adam.

Adam was still in a daze when Jerome came up with a plan to resolve this. “All right, Adam, go ahead

and explain to us why you’ve arrested this young lady.

Adam’s eyes lit up at this. All he had to do was say he’d mistaken Wynter for someone else. He would

be let off the hook then.

As if Wynter would allow that. She smiled and fixed her dark gaze on Jerome. “Mr. Grayson, I doubt

there’s been a misunderstanding. I’m a streamer, after all, which makes me a public figure.”

She paused and pointed at the middle–aged woman who was trying to sneak away. “Besides, the

person who reported me to the cops is here as a witness.”
