Chapter 611

The officer behind the wheel hit the gas pedal, while the one in the passenger seat casually turned around and asked Xavier, “Do you have your phone with you?”

Xavier became alert and countered. “What do you need it for?”

“We want you to call Chief Hanson!” The officer chuckled. “You can use mine if you don’t have it.” As he spoke, he pulled out his own phone and handed it over.

“There’s no need! I’ve got mine! Take it from my right pocket!” Xavier was used to giving orders. So, instinctively, he also used an assertive tone even when taking to the officer, The officer wasn’t bothered by Xavier’s tone. Instead, he fetched the phone and handed it to him.

Xavier dialed Chief Hanson’s number, However, within seconds, he heard a cold, mechanical voice saying. “The person you called is unavailable. Please try again later.” No matter how many times he tried, the result was still the same.

The young officer sitting on Xavier’s right side, who had handed him the phone, kindly reminded him, “Chief Hanson from the central police bureau got arrested last month for corruption. His number is probably not active anymore.”

That’s when Xavier realized that the officers had allowed him to call Chief Hanson just to embarrass him! He gathered himself, trying hard not to show signs of panic.

“Well it’s not just Chiel Hanson I know. I’m also acquainted with Deputy Minister Dustin from the Ministry of Public Security “Oh, did I not mention? Deputy Minister Dustin got nabbed along with Chief Hanson. They’ve been cracking down on organized crime recently, and they’re thoroughly investigating the police department.

If you know anyone else involved. spill the beans. We’ll report those we haven’t caught yet and they’ll be taken in on the spotl Xavier felt utterly defeated hearing the young officer’s words.

He had boasted to lan that he could handle the Yvette incident because of his connections within the police department. But now, the connections were useless. If the police caught lan, lan would inevitably expose him too. He felt waves of despair washing over him.

“Hey, buddy,” Xavier put on a smile and started cozying up to the officers around him. “I swear I didn’t hurt anyone. Are you sure you got the right person?”

“You’ll find out when we get back to the station.”

The officers remained unmoved: they gave Xavier the cold shoulder no matter what he tried to say to them afterward.

The one in charge of interrogating Xavier was Jack “Do you know lan? He’s confessed everything” sald Jack “That’s impossible! Xavier instinctively denied it but then he quickly realized his mistake and tried to cover it up, saying. “I mean, I haven’t committed any crimes. So, even if lan confessed, it has nothing to do with me.”

“That’s not what lan said, though.” Jack played the recording of lan’s confession. In the recording, lan was fearful and confessed everything after Kevan’s Intimidation. He not only came to the police station willingly but spilled all the details of his Illegal activities done for Xavier, including hiring someone to kidnap Bethany The more Xavier listened, the pater he became.

“Lies! He’s spewing nonsensel He did all those things himself, and he’s trying to pin it on me! Xavier denied It vehemently.

“Wel, lan has provided us with very important evidence.” Jack clicked a couple of times on the computer screen and played several more recordings.

“Find someone you trust to kidnap Larissa’s son,”

“You useless plece of c rap! You can’t even handle such a small task! Forget it. Just kidnap Kevan’s daughter instead!”

she doesn’t die.”

“Thandle this matter. Keep your mouth shut, and don’t go around talking about it.”

There was no doubt that it was Xavier’s voice in the recordings. He instantly felt powerless as he couldn’t find other excuses and was completely slumped in his chair,
