Chapter 445
Lord Protector Novel
These men were armed and in uniform; they were armed police.
There were over fifty of them.
The leader was Logan Hugh.
He shouted, âThe armed police are here on official duty. Please cooperate with us. No one should move from their places now. The first squad, cover the left. The second squad, cover the right. Third squad, block all exits. Fourth squad, come with me to arrest the suspect.â
The sudden appearance of the armed police frightened the guests of the ceremony. None dared to move from their seats.
Lacey and Daniel exchanged a look of terror.
If they were not wrong, Logan must be the man Emily said they had crossed.
Logan had gone against them several times in the past, but he had failed each time. Lacey had not been expecting him to try the same thing again so soon.
What will he accuse us of this time?
Will we be able to survive this?
After all, Zeke was the one to defeat him in the past, but now, he was not by their sides.
Evan was calm as he said in a placid tone, âOfficer Hugh, youâve come uninvited, and youâve surrounded my venue without permission. Donât you think you need to give me an explanation at the very least?â
Logan did not bother being polite with Evan as he said, âWhatâs wrong? Do I need to report my confidential tasks to you? Itâs best that you do nothing stupid, or Iâll arrest you on charges of disrupting the police.â
Evan said, âVery well. I hope you will not regret your actions.â
Logan sneered, âWith those words of yours, Iâll charge you with threatening the police. Men, arrest Evan Schneider right now.â
Two officers immediately restrained Evan.
Lacey panicked.
She knew Logan was most likely coming after her family.
She was upset that it had involved Evan.
She was about to beg them to spare Evan when the latter shot her a look, signaling to her not to intervene.
With no other options, Lacey swallowed her words back down her throat.
Logan demanded, âWho is Daniel Hinton? Show yourself.â
Danielâs heart was pounding from anxiety, but he straightened his back and said, âI am.â
Logan continued, âWe received a tip saying that youâve committed a murder. Please cooperate with us with the investigation back at the station.â
Daniel immediately refuted, âThis is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. Iâm a doctor. I save lives. Why would I kill people?â
Logan replied, âI know youâre a doctor. Someone reported you abused your power and intentionally caused medical malpractice. Youâre an embarrassment to doctors. Youâre not unfit to be one.â
Danielâs mind was blown away when he heard Loganâs words.
As a doctor, it was an utmost humiliation for him to have someone say he was abusing his power to squander lives.
Daniel refused to take the blame for this. âThis is bullshit! I am a righteous and honest man. Being a doctor is sacred to me. How could I taint a healerâs way?â
Logan answered, âDo you think youâll be innocent just because you say you are? I have a witness with me today.â
At that, he waved toward the outside of the door. âCome in.â
Soon, a man walked in from the outside. It was Humpty.
Daniel immediately recognized him. Humpty was his patient who was Yang-deficient.
Back then, he had diagnosed him as Yang-deficient, but the man refused to let him write it down.
Later on, Humpty had written on his health report that he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. After that, he sent Daniel a banner of gratitude, claiming that the latter had cured him of his pancreatic cancer.
He reported me?
Whatâs going on?
