Chapter 614
“Freeze! Put your hands where I can see them!”
As though he had found his savior, Willard screamed at the top of his lungs, “Help me, officers! This
man killed all these people and threatened to break my fingers! He needs to be brought to justice!
Hurry up and arrest—”
Donald cut him off with another kick to the face, breaking his nose in the process.
“Freeze, or we will open fire!” Clifford yelled.
He didn't think Donald would be bold enough to hit someone with so many police officers pointing their
guns at him.
Donald glanced at Clifford and asked calmly, “Are you from the eastern branch? Do you know Joseph
Moreno?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I don't know any man named Joseph! You are currently involved in a murder case, so put your knife
down, or we will open fire!” Clifford snapped back at him angrily.
He was particularly furious after noticing Yosef, who turned out to be his brother-in-law, lying in a pool
of blood.
It was obvious that Donald was the one responsible for the cut on Yosef's throat.
As Clifford had always been very close with his sister, the mere thought of her having to become a
widow enraged him to no end.
Clifford flipped the safety of his firearm off so he could easily gun Donald down if he tried anything
funny.
Suddenly, Clifford's partner, Gilbert Quimby, recalled something and whispered into his ear, “Captain
Taggart, Joseph Moreno is the chief of our department. It's possible that he might have some powerful
connections.”
Clifford had been consumed by anger at first, but he quickly calmed down after hearing what Gilbert
said.
As Joseph was his direct superior, it would be hard for him to explain himself if he ended up killing
Donald.
After hesitating for a bit, Clifford asked, “You know Chief Moreno? Who are you exactly?”
“My name is Donald Campbell.”
The looks on the police officers' faces changed immediately after they heard that.
Joseph had specifically briefed them about Donald during a meeting a few days ago, so they were all
too familiar with his name.
They were ordered to inform Joseph if they ever ran into Donald while responding to emergencies.
As Clifford was not expecting to encounter Donald at all, he decided to have Donald wait while he gave
Joseph a call to report the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSure enough, Joseph scolded him angrily the moment he heard what happened. “Have you all lost your
minds? The members of the United Hearts Society are nothing but trouble of the worst sort! Mr.
Campbell is doing the city a favor by killing them. What, you guys plan to arrest him?”
“That's not what we meant, Chief Moreno! I-I gave you a call as soon as I ran into him, didn't I?” Clifford
stammered nervously in response.
“Release Mr. Campbell immediately! I'll have you all locked up in prison if anything happens to him!”
Back then, Donald would've attacked anyone who dared stop him, including those from the military.
However, since the six big shots of Yaleview had decided to show him respect, Donald was willing to
spare these police officers. He believed that Joseph would provide him with a satisfactory explanation
later.
When Clifford returned to the scene after ending the call, he no longer treated Donald like an enemy.
“Upon checking, we've confirmed that these men from the United Hearts Society have barged in here
with the intention of killing you, so you had no choice but to neutralize them in self-defense. What you
did is perfectly legal and justified, so you are free to go, Mr. Campbell,” he said with a polite smile.
Willard's eyes went wide with shock and disbelief when he heard that.
