Chapter 2

“Besides, the Quinns from the capital will have a marriage alliance with us. Once Stephen Quinn comes to Riveria, he’ll easily raise the GDP to 20 trillion within a year!”

Rachel walked over to the table and continued with a smile, “The Lowes’ affairs are none of your concern. You should worry about yourself now.”

She smiled faintly. “After all, you’ll be spending the rest of your life behind bars.”

One of the officers then took out a pair of silver handcuffs.

Ethan knew that the Lowes must have planned it thoroughly. There was no chance they would let him walk away today, but he did not plan on walking away anyway.

He was feeling a bit tired, after all. Over the past three years, he had constantly worked to attract investors, protect the environment, and maintain the delicate balance with the various forces. Now, he finally had some time to rest.

Ethan looked at them calmly and said, “I’ll walk out myself.”

The two officers frowned and moved forward to handcuff him. However, with just a glance from Ethan, they suddenly tensed up and froze, too afraid to move. Even their chief did not have such an intimidating presence!

Once Ethan walked away, they regained their senses and quickly followed. They did not dare to take out the handcuffs anymore.

Rachel watched as Ethan walked away and could no longer suppress her smile. She sat on the sofa and took out her phone to dial a number.

“Dad, it’s done.”

On the other end of the phone, George Lowe laughed at the news. “Did it go smoothly?”

Rachel laughed as well. “Very! I think his heart broke. He didn’t even try to resist or struggle. You should’ve seen the look on his face. He looked like a dog. It was hilarious. He’s not getting out of prison for the rest of his life.”

“Good, good.” George laughed. “I’m almost done on my end as well. Your fiance, Stephen, will be arriving tonight. Dress up and then head to the airport to pick him up. Oh, and get a reservation. We’ll have a feast today to celebrate.”

At the thought of Stephen Quinn’s handsome face, Rachel said excitedly, “Don’t worry, Dad. Leave everything to me. I’ll make sure he has an unforgettable welcome dinner.”

The Quinns were one of the largest families in the capital, Metropolis. The old master of the Quinns was a general, and his son held a significant position in the government, making the Quinns not only well-connected but also extremely powerful.

To put it mildly, while most people were born to be workers, Stephen Quinn, the son of the Quinns, was born a royalty!

Meanwhile, when the police car stopped, Ethan slowly got out and calmly walked into the station without looking back.

The two officers got out and looked at Ethan’s silhouette, speechless.

“Why does it feel like he’s not a criminal but a leader instead?”

Ordinary people would have been terrified if they were arrested and brought to the station. Their legs would tremble, and their faces would pale.

However, Ethan’s reaction left them dumbfounded. He seemed a bit too calm. Those who did not know he was arrested might have thought he was just going home.

Seeing that he was about to walk away, they quickly caught up.

Inside the station, Ethan sat in a chair and looked calmly at the two who had followed him. “Tell Liam Yates to come see me.”

The officers’ eyes widened. Liam Yates was the chief of police himself!

“The chief isn’t just someone you can just meet.”

They were reluctant because Ethan was just a criminal, so why was he commanding them? He should be begging for mercy at a time like that.
