Chapter 8: The One Who Dared to Arrest You
Damn it! How could you betray your teammates at a critical moment?!
Kayla glanced around at the people present.
Mick conveniently played dead!
Jack and Ethaniel were said to be good friends, they certainly wouldn’t help her!
Ethaniel, the victim in this case, had been inexplicably arrested and detained for over an hour. If he didn’t seek revenge, it would be considered lenient.
And there’s this little guy, currently glaring at her with cold eyes. Well, understandable, she did arrest his dad after all.
Well!
In this room full of people, not a single one could help her.
Reluctantly, she had no choice but to apologize.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Han. I shouldn’t have arrested you.”
“Go on,” Ethaniel looked at her calmly.
“… shouldn’t have cuffed you to the chair.”
“Go on,” he insisted, his tone unwavering.
“That’s all…” Kayla protested, “Besides that, I didn’t lay a finger on you!”
Ethaniel raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression clearly saying, “Are you sure?”
“… I really didn’t…” Mid-sentence, Kayla gasped as she saw the raised back of Ethaniel’s hand and fell silent.
How could she forget that she had bitten him!
It wasn’t just Kayla who was shocked by the bite marks; Mick and Oliver were too. As for Jack, he just smiled and continued watching the show.
Mick was completely dumbfounded. The big boss of Seatowne, the CEO of Goldenshore Group, the heirs of the Lacroix family, had actually been bitten by Kayla!
Seeing the two neat rows of teeth marks on his daddy’s hand, Oliver jumped up immediately. “You stupid woman, how dare you bite my daddy!”
Kayla, being yelled at by a little kid, widened her eyes and shouted back, “Who are you calling stupid? I was performing my duties. Say that again if you dare!”
“You’re stupid! Stupid woman! You dare bite my daddy, I’ll sue you!”
“Go ahead!” Kayla sneered at Oliver, “See if the judge will scold you first!”
“Just you wait!”
“Sure, I’m waiting, little brat!”
“Hmph!”
“Hmph!”
The three men in the room watched as the two of them argued childishly.
If Oliver was young and excusable, then Kayla arguing so fervently…
Mick covered his face. Having a subordinate like Kayla, it seemed inevitable that he’d have bad luck.
Jack looked at the quarrel between Kayla and Oliver and raised his eyebrows at Ethaniel. “I never thought Ollie could be so lively. I always thought your son was like you, speaking fewer than ten words in three days, each word no more than three syllables.”
“Ollie is very much like me,” Ethaniel said, looking at his son’s angry little face. Suddenly, he realized that Ollie rarely got this worked up.
“No, no, actually, Ollie is nothing like you,” Jack chuckled softly. “He just admires you so much that he tries hard to be like you.”
Ethaniel turned his gaze back and said coldly, “That’s how Lacroix Family heirs have always been.”
“That’s just because you haven’t met the right person. I never thought you’d end up in a police station, either. It seems it’s just because no one ever dared to arrest you before,” Jack smiled as he looked at the energetic Kayla. “Now that there’s someone who dares to arrest you and someone who might change Ollie, will you let her go?”
Should I let her go?
Ethaniel’s indifferent gaze fell on Kayla. Watching her argue with his son, her pink lips chattering away, her big, bright black eyes… Ethaniel slowly smiled. “Ollie, notify the legal team.”
“Legal team? Hey! Ethaniel, Mr. Han, I’m sorry to bit you just now. But do you really need to involve the legal team? At worst, you can bite me back!” Kayla extended her arm, thinking how petty this supposedly world’s ribreast man was.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“My daddy would never bite you! That’s beneath his dignity! Got it?” Oliver looked at her disdainfully.
“Then what do you want?” Kayla glared at Oliver.
“It’s not because you bit me,” Ethaniel said, lowering his gaze to Kayla’s hand. It was evident that this wasn’t the pampered skin of a socialite, yet this very hand had once been handcuffed to his… His purple eyes darkened, and he said decisively, “You damaged my car, you need to compensate.”
