Chapter 24
Chapter 24 Righteousness Before Family
Everyone was shocked.
What happened?
Ned was beaten and stepped on but Johnson, his uncle and also the mayor, scolded him instead of apprehending the culprit.
Johnson clenched his teeth tightly and stared at his nephew viciously.
“Uncle Johnson, can’t you see? He almost killed me!” Ned continued screaming for help.
“You got what you deserved!”
Johnson then looked at the expressionless Kaze. He clenched his fists and teeth tightly. Then, he looked around and walked to an
employee to take the baseball bat away.
The employee planned to beat Kaze with the baseball bat, but it did not happen.
Johnson raised the bat in the air. As more than a hundred pairs of eyes watched in disbelief, John swung the bat down at Ned.
“Aaaargh!” Ned cried in pain.
It was just the start. Johnson beat Ned furiously and he did not hold back at all.
Ned continued to wail in pain.
He had never been so insulted and humiliated before, being beaten up by his own uncle in front of more than a hundred people.
Clank!
Johnson then tossed the bat away and went up to Kaze. As everyone
Mr. Lee, it’s my fault for not teaching my nephew well. I am so sorry that this little bastard offended Ms. Quint. Please accept my apology.”
Everyone was silenced, shocked, and could not believe what just happened. Even Ned was speechless.
The entire lobby hall was quiet.
Who exactly was Kaze? Why would the mayor of the city bow respectfully to him?
Countless pairs of eyes stared at Kaze, wondering his true identity.
Johnson remained bowed with his heart pounding as he waited for a reply from Kaze. His forehead was covered in sweat, because the entire Brooks family would vanish with just one word from Kaze.
“I won’t put the blame on your entire family.”
Kaze was satisfied with how Johnson handled the matter. He said, “I just want two things-Ned Brooks must apologize to my wife at the station and give her the pre-sale certificate.”
“Thank you, Mr. Lee!”
Johnson breathed a sigh of relief.
He was frightened when he learned that Darcy had gone to the police station to turn herself in because of his stupid nephew. He sweated profusely as he told the chief inspector, Don, to bring Ned back to the station for the apology.
Meanwhile, at the southern branch of the police station, Darcy fought her thoughts for a long time before she bit the bullet and went up to the officer on duty.
“I am here to turn myself in. I am Darcy Quint, and I accidentally hit the Chief of the Housing Department, Ned Brooks.”
Soon, a middle-aged woman in uniform and heavy makeup appeared and glanced at Darcy.
She scoffed and scolded, “So you are the little bitch who’s trying to seduce Ned, and even hit him!”
“Hey! Watch your mouth!” Agnes stood up and defended her daughter.
The middle-aged woman’s expression turned grim.
Then, a middle-aged man, who was the officer on duty, scolded Agnes, “Mind your tone! She’s Nara Nalano, senior office of our branch, and also Mr. Brooks’ wife! Show some respect!”
Agnes’ expression shifted. Her tone grew weaker as she said, “My daughter didn’t try to seduce your husband…”
“She did! Little bitch, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Nara went up to Darcy and raised her hand in the air.
Darcy was so frightened that her face turned pale. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“Stop it right there!”
A bellow came from outside the station.
Ned came in limping and slapped Nara to the side.
Confused, Nara covered her face and cried, “Ned Brooks, what is the meaning of this? You slapped me?”
“Shut up, bitch! You have no right to slap Ms. Quint! Get out of my
face!”
