Chapter 180
As expected of the girl Bernard had his eye on. Hera was definitely a special one.
Meanwhile, Brandon looked confused.
Since both Shaun and Kane had personally arrived to
d to set Hera free, shouldn’t she be leaving the cell right away?
Why was she still sitting there? Did she fall in love with the cell?
“Ms. Youngworth, Mr. Thompson is here to bail you out. You may leave now,” Brandon reminded in a humble tone once again.
“Do you even know the art of speaking, you dumbfuck?” Shaun delivered a kick at Brandon’s ass. “What do you mean by “bail“? She didn’t do anything wrong in the first place!”
Brandon almost tripped and tell because of the kick.
After steadying himself, he quickly changed his tune “Y–Yes! Of course! She didn’t do anything wrong! I was the one who messed everything up! I’m really sorry!”
Only then did Hera raise her head coolly “My things,” she said.
Her phone and acupuncture kit were confiscated before she was thrown into the cell.
Upon hearing Hera’s words, Brandon quickly ordered an officer to bring her belongings over. Then, he presented them to her respectfully.
At that moment, Brandon finally had a taste of what it really felt like to have shot himself in the foot.
After Herastowed the acupuncture into her pocket, she accepted her phone leisurely. Then, she turned on the camera app and started recording Brandon.
“What are your mistakes?” she asked.
Shaun grew even more intrigued when he realized what Hera was doing. The way she handled this incident was similar to how Bernard would usually act
Brandon’s expression went stiff. He didn’t say anything in response
Why did Hera’s interrogative tone and demeanor seem so familiar?
“Well? Spit it out!” Shaun delivered yet another dick at Brandon.
Brandon felt both humiliated and aggrieved to have received two kicks in a row. But he dared not protest, seeing Kane said nothing about the kicks.
He thought for a moment before replying, “I went against the principles and ethics of my career and sullied it with my misdeeds, I didn’t investigate the case fairly, choosing to drew my conclusion just by listening to one side of the story. In doing so, Tended up wronging you, Ms. Youngworth. I’m sorry about that
“I promise you that I’ll write a report detailing my self–reflection after this. I’ll always take this lesson to heart.”
“Does that mean you’re not denying the fact that queenie Killian was the one who conspired with you to frame me for the crime just to throw me into jail?” Hera questioned while glaring at Brandon icly.
Brandon was very sure that the thermostat in the detention facility was burned on, yet he felt cold sweat rolling down his forehead
The way Hera spoke while glaring at him mirrored how he had behaved while Interrogating her this morning. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
To thank that his retribution came so soon!
What was worse was that Hera had asked Brandon this sharp question right in front of Kame. If Brandon were to say yes, he’d have admitted to bribery. If the answer was no, he’d be suspended from his job because of his poor performance as the deputy chiel
No, Brandon couldn’t afford in let anyone investigate him at this post.
But judging from her courageous demeanor, she would never leave the facility if he didn’t answer her.
Yes. This time, Brandon really shot himself in the foot
In the end, he weighed his pros and cons for a few moments before saying, “I shouldn’t have believed in Queenie’s lies. I didn’t carry out my job well and ended up making the wrong judgment”
“You claim to have made the wrong judgment?” Hera chuckled coldly in response. “No. That was a false accusation!”
Brandon trembled instinctively. As a member of the authorities, the fact that he consciously broke the law despite knowing all about it meant that he had committed a huge crime,
“Ms. Youngworth, I’ve already ordered my men to investigate this case thoroughly. I promise you, we’ll uncover the truth and clear your name. Do you have any other requests?” Kane quickly Intervened, unable to stomach Brandon’s pathetic les anymore
He was definitely a smart man. At this rate, things were going to be sense and awkward if he didn’t do anything about it.
Hera would never leave her cell as long as the case remained unsolved.
To think that Kane had thought of Brandon as a charismatic and capable officer who stuck to his principles no matter what
If it wasn’t for Shaun summoning Kane back to the police station under the guise of an emergency, he wouldn’t have witnessed the scene, Iconically enough, Kane was planning to recommend Brandon as the next deputy chief prior to this incident.
Brandon wasn’t charismatic at all; he was the type who sucked up to the powerful people and bullied the ones weaker than him.
Not only did Kane need to rethink who to nominate, but he also needed to purge the bad apples out of the police force in order to rectify everything
Herlooked at Kane coldly “Yes. I’d like to lodge a report. Queenie Killian has made false accusations against me.”
