"No matter how bad the coffee at the station might be, at least it won't harm my body. I wouldn't dare

drink anything from your house. Who knows if they might rot my stomach or my heart? It's not worth it,"

Cyrus retorted to Josh's sarcasm.

"Cyrus, David's case has already been closed. It was you who released him! What are you doing here

again?"

Victor was too annoyed to bicker with him. His eyes were red from rage. "You can't arrest David without

evidence. I'll never let you do that.

"Also, we're not some losers you Taylors can push around. I'm paying you some respect because of

our long-standing relationship and because you're Winston's son. Don't try to push it."

Winston's son?

Their chief was the son of Belbanks' wealthiest man? Alyssa's brother?

This revelation hit the two police officers like a meteorite falling to earth.

Cyrus had been in the police force for many years. He was low-key and hardworking, never mentioning

anything about his personal life or family background.

Back then, when Cyrus had just become the chief of the Criminal Investigation Division, there were

many criticisms against him due to his young age.

Many people said he had connections and a strong background. However, within a short span of three

years, all these criticisms vanished as Cyrus solved one major case after another.

They could guess that Cyrus had powerful connections. But they never expected it to be this powerful.

Cyrus knew that Victor was bringing up his father in front of his colleagues to put pressure on him, but

he remained unfazed. He even felt like laughing.

"The law will not wrong an innocent person, and it'll not let any dickheads go free."

The faces of the Schmidts darkened at once.

"Cyrus! Who are you calling a dickhead?" David shouted as he pointed at Cyrus' face, but his voice

was trembling.

"Mr. David Schmidt, you are now suspected of being involved in an attempted rape case. Please come

with us to assist in the investigation," Cyrus said without further ado as he gazed at David's pale face.

"Dad! Josh!" David was so desperate that his features twisted in panic.

"Take him away."

Cyrus' eyes narrowed, and the two police officers approached David.

Before they could reach him, David's legs gave out, and he collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that, Jameson held back his laughter. He was thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.

Victor felt deeply ashamed and wished he could bury this useless son in a hole. "S-Someone, come

help David up!"

"Cyrus, do you think we don't know the law? If you want to make an arrest, you should have an arrest

warrant. Otherwise, it's just abusing your power. I can file a complaint against you." Fortunately, Josh

wasn't intimidated by the situation.

"When did I say I was going to arrest him?"

Cyrus smirked, raising his eyebrows. "I said, let David come with us to assist in the investigation, to

give his statement. You may look respectable, but it seems you don't understand plain language."

Josh clenched his teeth so hard that they might shatter. "Cyrus! You...!"

"After all, everyone saw Ms. Tatiana's livestream yesterday. She personally accused David. Although

he failed to succeed in his attempt because of his impotence, since there's a victim's report, we can't

turn a blind eye."

"I-I won't go... I won't go!" David was trembling all over and shaking uncontrollably.

"You don't dare to even assist with the investigation? Does that mean you have something to hide? Are

Ms. Tatiana's words all true?"

Cyrus' expression remained calm, but every word he uttered dripped with hatred. "Refusing to assist

with the investigation or trying to flee abroad at this critical moment are all suspicions of guilt. By then,

I'll have a legitimate reason to request your arrest, Mr. David.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Before coming here, I'd already applied for a travel ban from my superiors. Other

than Solana City, you can't go anywhere else."
