Chapter 739 Taken Into Custody

Elias curled his lips into a humorless smile. "Dream on, Beathan. But you'll never see Ash again, not in this

lifetime."

Before Beathan could spit out something venomous, Elias cut him off. "You think I'm clueless about how she got

hurt all those years ago? I've kept that score for a long time."

It was tfor Elias to settle it.

Beathan was at a loss for words, and his eyes faltered.

He had always thought that Elias was unaware. If he had known, there was no way he would've stayed quiet all

these years.

Unless... someone had held him back, making him wait in patience until the perfect moment to strike. But who

could that be? Who had lured Beathan to Capebatt City? It had to be the sperson.

Beathan's expression shifted before he refrained from talking anymore. He turned around and swiftly walked

away.

Elias watched Beathan's retreating figure, his eyes cold with contempt.

However, as he turned to the person nearby, his countenance softened. He was like a lost stray dog that finally

returned to its master, becoming calm and obedient.

The person in the wheelchair had listened to the entire conversation. Without a word, she slowly wheeled herself

away.

Elias felt a pang of disappointment. Despite that, he quickly followed, sticking close to the person.

Beathan hurried out of the neighborhood. He wanted to rush to the airport and leave Capebatt City immediately.

His driver had already pulled the car around. As Beathan reached for the door, a large hand abruptly slammed it

shut.

Multiple men surrounded him.

"Are you Beathan Collins?" one of the men asked.

Beathan remained calm. "Who are you?"

The leader flashed a police badge. "We're the police. We suspect that you're involved in a serious criminal case.

You'll need to cwith us to the station for further investigation."

Beathan's breath halted. "A criminal case? What are you talking about? | just arrived in Capebatt City today. You

must be mistaken."

The officer replied, "Whether there's been a mistake or not, you'll find out at the station. Since you're a lawyer,

you should know that this is a criminal summons. You need to cooperate with our investigation."

Beathan clenched his fists tightly.

However, Beathan was like a snake, quick and elusive. Soon enough, he regained his composure.

He adjusted his glasses, offering a faint smile. "Alright, I'll cwith you."

The police brought Beathan back to the police station. During the drive, Beathan had already fully collected

himself.

Once he was seated in the interrogation room, Beathan took control of the conversation. "Now that we're at the

station, officer, care to explain what crI'm supposedly involved in?"

The officer remained calm and pulled out a photograph. "Do you know this man?"

Beathan glanced at the photo and shook his head. "Nope, | don't recognize him."

It was a photo of Felix.

The officer then presented another photograph. "How about this woman?"

Beathan responded, "Yeah, | know her. That's Emelie Hoven. We also call her Mandy. We're business partners, but

we don't talk much."

The officer asked, "If you're business partners, why don't you interact much?"

"She represents Filo Group in their

investment of Xanther Group.

Though I'ma kao at Xsnther,

I'm thei legahaffalr nager. My

work'doesn't involve much in the

day-to-day operations. That's why we

don't cross paths often," Beathan

explained smoothly, leaving no room

Beathan mentioned Emelie's past cases, subtly trying to discredit her.

However, the officer didn't engage. Instead, he pulled out another photograph.

"And this man?" he asked.

Beathan responded coldly, "That's

The officer finally got to the point. "Three days ago, on the 16th, at 10 p.m., Felix Ashford and a group of men

attacked Emelie at the Cedarbrook estate.

"Felix has confessed to his crimes, and he's now in custody. He also revealed that your secretary, Jake Yancey,

ordered him to abduct Emelie. Jake has already been detained in Placidville."
