Cyril struggled to stand up. It was a pity he didn't have as much strength as the foot planted firmly on his back. After struggling a few times, he found himself pressed down hard against the floor once more."Don't struggle. It won't be of any use. If you don't give us a reasonable explanation for what happened today, I'll sentence you on the spot!" Wyatt spoke in an ice-cold, terrifying tone.Cyril broke out in a cold sweat with fear."This is all a misunderstanding! Please listen to me! Sebastian stole cultural relics, and this is a crime that merits death. "Besides, the cultural relics in his possession are national treasures from the early Quorn era! If you don't believe me, you can look at the report on the desk," Cyril hastily explained.Vince finally noticed that there was a photocopied piece of paper placed on the interrogation table. He picked it up and perused it thoroughly. The two colored photos on top were exactly the same as the objects lying on the interrogation t
Sebastian laughed in embarrassment."Take care!" Wyatt patted Sebastian's shoulder heavily.Then, he turned a cold gaze on Cyril as he said, "Young man, I hope you're not planning to settle personal debts here. I'm warning you, you wouldn't want me as your enemy."Cyril almost wet his pants with fear.Wyatt was old, but he had survived countless bloody storms during the war. He had fought his way to this point, and his manner was both righteous and intimidating. Just one look from him was enough to scare a creep like Cyril half to death. "Don't worry, Mr. Holman Senior. Before the higher-ups send someone here, I won't give Sebastian any trouble! I'll let him have his phone back too. "As long as he doesn't escape, I'll guarantee that he'll feel right at home here." As he spoke, Cyril felt his heart twisting painfully. It felt as if he were being stabbed with a hundred knives.Wyatt looked meaningfully at Vince and Larys, and they left the interrogation room, looking resigned.
However, Ryan only wanted the anti-cancer prescription and the shares in Arctic Snow Group. He didn't care about whether Sebastian lived or died."Mr. Jones, I didn't hear you wrongly, did I? Do you really have the power to get me released with no charges? I don't think that even your father would be able to say such a thing!" Sebastian's ruthless retort made Ryan's smile freeze. His lips twitched violently."How was it, Mr. Jones? What did he say?" Trevor looked nervously at Ryan."Ballard, don't be so cocky! If you agree to my requests now, you may still have a chance of surviving! If you won't cooperate, I'll still be able to find a way to get the prescription. You, on the other end, will find yourself in a worse situation," Ryan said through gritted teeth.Sebastian was looking down on Ryan! No one had ever gone against Ryan in his entire life! Who did Sebastian think he was?Ryan had only manipulated a few things and already had Sebastian backed into a corner.Sebastian wa
Blake rushed back to Ventus Estate. When Belinda saw that he had returned alone, she frowned and asked, "Why isn't Mr. Ballard with you?"Blake wiped away the sweat on his brow and said, "Madam Dragon, I made an appointment with Mr. Ballard yesterday and said that I would be there at 2:00 pm to pick him up. However, when I got there, Mr. Ballard's convenience store was closed down.""What?" Belinda's expression changed slightly. She was sure that she had not judged Sebastian wrongly. He wasn't the type of person who wouldn't keep his promises. Had something happened to him?"Madam Dragon, I've asked around, and I heard that Larys and Vince have been put in isolation for interrogation. We can't get to them at all right now.""Mr. Ballard has been taken away by the Steinberg Alpha Strike Force team. As for the reason, please forgive me, I couldn't find out at all. "However, I think that the detainment of Larys and Vince and the sudden interrogation of the two of them must have some
"I must see Sebastian today!" Belinda didn't want to give Clifford any room to maneuver.Clifford pondered Belinda's words and thought about it three times. Wouldn't it be a simple matter for her to see Sebastian?With her status, who would stop her? Who would have the courage to stop her?Clifford immediately understood Belinda's intentions. He said quickly, "I'll get Hugh to rush to Steinberg right now to meet you. I'll be sure to find out everything regarding the incident with Sebastian as well."Belinda hung up abruptly.Clifford put his phone down and exhaled deeply. He quickly instructed his secretary to call an emergency meeting.Hugh had just walked into the conference room when Clifford pointed at him and said, "Hugh, you don't need to attend the meeting today. Go to Steinberg at once, and take this with you. Read it carefully while you're on your way."Clifford gave Hugh an envelope. Hugh took it, turned, and left the conference room thoughtfully."What is going on wi
Meanwhile, Trevor and Ryan had reached Steinberg. Ryan still couldn't get over getting scolded by Sebastian on the phone. Since they were at Steinberg, they decided to visit Steinberg's Alpha Strike Force team. Therefore, they instructed the driver, "Go to the Alpha Strike Force team base! I must make Ballard kneel and grovel to me in apology!"…Sebastian was selectively answering the questions of the two staff members who had come from the state department when the door to the interrogation room opened, and Ryan walked in with Trevor following close behind him."Mr. Jones?" The staff from the state capital's Alpha Strike Force team immediately recognized Ryan. They got up quickly and bowed as they invited Ryan to take a seat."So, he's Sebastian?" Ryan asked after he had sat down. He stared coldly at him."That's right! He stole both these things!" Shawn said, pointing at the items on the table.Ryan looked triumphantly at Sebastian and said, "Ballard, do you remember how coc
At the sound of the woman's voice, the door to the interrogation room opened once more.Cyril had been standing at the side of the room and cursing inwardly. They were treating the interrogation room like a market where they could come and go as they pleased."Oh, Dad, when did you get yourself such a young girlfriend? She's pretty good-looking." Ryan's eyes gleamed as he leered at the middle-aged woman standing behind Hugh.Hugh almost wet his pants with fright. Belinda was the woman who had followed him in.They had arrived right after Ryan entered the interrogation room, but Belinda had gestured for Hugh to stop so that they could listen at the door for a while. With every word that Belinda heard Ryan say, her eyes became progressively colder. When Shawn took out the taser, Belinda finally spoke up in a loud voice to stop him. At the same time, she opened the door of the interrogation room and walked in."Shut up, you disobedient thing!" Hugh's eyes were bulging out of their
"Dad! Have mercy! Stop hitting me and electrocuting me! I was wrong, alright? Why are you beating me up?" Ryan stared at Hugh in fear. "You idiot! Who gave you permission to get up to all this nonsense?" Hugh had a black eye, and he glared ferociously at Ryan.Hugh would rather beat his ungrateful son to death than let him be the cause of the entire Jones family's downfall."Hugh, you can stop acting now," Belinda said coldly.Hugh shuddered in fear. He immediately turned and said to Belinda, "Madam Dragon, please hear me out. I really didn't order him to do these things."Belinda looked coldly into Hugh's eyes. All she saw in them was guilt and cowardice. "Really? How do you explain this, then?" Belinda asked icily as she raised a slender finger and pointed it at Sebastian, who had been strapped into the interrogation chair. Hugh hurriedly explained, "Madam Dragon, you heard everything just now. Sebastian stole cultural relics. This is a severe crime."As he spoke, Hugh loo
