William and Cameron Thomas almost arrived at the gate of the police office at the same time.
With his arm held in his servant’s arms, Cameron strode towards William and said, “It’s really a big problem! You
should inform me earlier.”
William took his arms to support him, “You’ve been in poor health for a long time. I don’t want to bother you.”
“I’m not bothered. Dealing with this case won’t take much time,” Cameron walked inside together with him and
sighed, “It has never occurred to me that Channing is the child of Miranda, but I did think he looks quite like you.
Maybe that is what we call destiny.”
William bit his lips, “I failed to take good care of them.”
Cameron sighed, “Don’t say that. We should take him out first.”
Entering the gate, a police man came over to ask how he can help them.
Supported by a walking stick, Cameron said, “I’m Cameron Thomas. I want to see Chief Hammond.”
Guessing that William and Cameron may be of some distinguished background, the officer immediately ran away to
fetch Chief Hammond.
Soon, Chief Hammond walked here hastily.
He said to Cameron cap in hand, “Mr. Thomas, what breeze of good fortune has blown you here?”
Cameron was quite prestigious in City N. Most people at William's age had listened to the lectures delivered by him
when they were young so they often regarded him as their mentor.
And Chief Hammond was one of them.
Cameron said calmly, “I came here for a reason.”
With his arm in arms, Chief Hammond led Cameron to the chief’s office, “We’d better have a talk in my office.”
William didn’t follow them and went outside to have a phone call.
After they had left, a few police officers began to discuss with each other in a low voice.
“Why did Mr. Thomas suddenly come here?”
“Is there any case involving the powerful or the rich?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“The boy we arrested yesterday is said to be the younger brother of Mr. Conrad.”
“But he is actually the younger brother-in-law of Mr. Conrad. And I’ve never heard there is any intimate relationship
between Mr. Thomas and the Conrad’s family.”
“But there is certainly no other case than that one which could make it necessary for Mr. Thomas to come here in
person.”
“I don’t know how the boy would be judged. It all depends on whether Chassell Barret could make it or not.”
“If I were Chassell, I would rather die. If he makes it, he will definitely be sent to jail again. I heard he has also
threatened Winnie Truman. Then he won’t get out in this two or three decades.”
“Maybe that is why Chassell chose to find Channing Radomil. He would rather have the boy dying with him than end
up living a hopeless life in jail.”
In the chief’s office.
Knowing the purpose of Cameron, Chief Hammond seemed to be in a pickle, “I also want to free him, Mr. Thomas.
Mr. Conrad came yesterday for the same purpose. But the journalists were still waiting eagerly out there. Maybe a
few days later would be better?”
Cameron said in a low voice, “I heard it was the man called Chassell who tried to provoke him in the campus.
Channing is a good kid and he is also excellent in academic studies. He is popular among his teachers and
classmates. Chassell is the only enemy of him. You should not bully such a good person.”
Chief Hammond said, “You’re right, Mr. Thomas. I’ve also done some investigation and I know what kind of person
he is. But you know, we have to go through all these procedures. Don’t bother, Mr. Thomas. After the journalists
have all gone, I will definitely send the boy back to you intact. And after the case ended, I will have his name
cleared.
“As for the case of Chassell, we have initiated the internal investigation. We will have all those involved in the bail of
him interrogated.”
With his walking stick in hand, Cameron remained silent.
Chief Hammond was right. Though Chassell deserved to die, he should be judged by the law.
So, Cameron stood up and said, “I don’t want to make it hard for you. But the kid is the son of one of my friends.
You should keep a keen eye on this case. He deserves a bright future.”
Chief Hammond halted for a second. Channing Radomil was the brother-in-law of Mr. Conrad and also the son of
Mr. Thomas’ friend.
What a boy.
But who was the friend Mr. Thomas mentioned?
Cameron asked before he left, “Can we meet the boy?”
Chief Hammond nodded, “Of course, Mr. Thomas.”
As Chief Hammond led Cameron out with his arm in hands, William also walked in after finishing his phone call.
With Cameron’ words in mind, Chief Hammond take a few more glances at William closely.
He was a stranger to him definitely.
Cameron turned back to say, “You could handle your own business now. We can be led to the boy by someone
else.”
Chief Hammond did have something else to do. So, he sent someone else to guide the gentlemen.
Outside the lounge, Cameron stopped, “I won’t get in. You should have a good talk with him. He is just as stubborn
as Miranda and Stella.”
William nodded, “I know.”
In the lounge, sitting on a single bed, Channing was staring at the window. Seemingly he was indulged in his own
wondering.
He was not cuffed but he was confined to this narrow room.
Yet he would never regret what he had done.
At this moment, the door was opened. He thought it were the police officers who were sent to interrogate him so
he asked, “So he died?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Not yet.”
It was a low voice of a man.
Channing turned away and he frowned a bit.
William closed the door behind him before he headed to Channing. He pulled out the chair before the desk and sat
down. He looked at Channing squarely, “You want him to die, don’t you?”
Channing looked away and remained silent with his eyelids lowered.
William continued, “You’ve grown up. You should know what has been involved in the case. He indeed deserves to
die. But you should leave him to the law. You are not a vigilante.”
Channing said in a cold voice, “But the law allowed him to get out of the jail.”
This time it was William’s turn to remain silent.
Obviously, Channing had no intention to talk about this issue anymore. He began to lie on the bed with his back
facing William.
William said, “I’ve seen your girlfriend in the hospital.”
Channing frowned. He bit his lips with his hands clenched into fists.
“She is willing to guard the wardroom for you day and night,” William said, “If you want to see her again, you should
get out of the room. You may think of yourself as a brave boy who fears nothing. But actually, you are the only
person who is moved by yourself.”
“Those who worry about you are still waiting outside. They will spare no efforts to have you freed.”
Channing remained silent.
“A real man should take his own responsibility, which means he should protect his families and his lover. But he will
not bother the others, nor will he let the those under his protection suffer life-long agony and self-accusation.”
“Do you think you act like a real man?”
William stood up, “You will be free in three days. Before that, you should make it clear what you really want and the
meaning of your behavior.”
