Jason instinctively wanted to contact Gerald when his assistant reminded him, "Mr. Dalton, Mr. Daley Senior should still be under investigation. I doubt he can take calls."Jason's face turned pale as he quickly said, "Go and gather previous discussions about Shirley. Now!"His assistant didn't understand what was happening. This was the first time he had seen him so anxious in all the years he had worked for him. The Daley family's case was not easy. After all, it was a high-profile case that required extra tactics to win. Jason didn't get stumped when he received the Daley family's request. Thus, why was he fretting now?The answer lay with Radley. The traits embedded in his genes were impossible to hide. His attitude took a major shift the more time he spent sitting on the chair.Jason should have arrived by now, but he was nowhere to be seen. Radley started to get a bit antsy.At this moment, Aria exchanged places with one of the interrogators. She entered the room and s
Aria spoke calmly. "We'll see how long your sentence will be later. I can assure you that your father and grandfather will spend the rest of their lives in jail."She seemed to have thought of something as she continued, "Oh, right. There's also Mr. Dalton, who you've been wanting to see. He'll be accompanying you as well."Radley trembled as he reviewed the information. He had never imagined Gerald would be taken away for investigation. "You're lying! This is impossible! My grandpa is already retired. Plus, he has several merits to his name!"Gerald had taught him to stay calm when things get dangerous. As Radley was sure Aria wouldn't find any more evidence, Radley couldn't give himself away.Just as Radley was about to break down, he suddenly thought of that. He glared at Aria. "There's no need to scare me. You guys have no right to prosecute my grandpa."Aria's gaze darkened. "The results will determine whether we have the right. Until now, you have no remorse for what you d
Aria looked over and saw a mother and son standing by the door. The woman still had her apron on. She looked like an employee of a fruit chain store.The woman held her son's shoulder and walked forward. "A handsome man told us the bullying case is being handled here. Is this the right place?"Due to the unique nature of the bullying case, only the Special Missions Unit was authorized to handle it.Aria walked over to them. "Ma'am, you're in the right place. We're the ones handling it."The woman hurriedly said, "That's great! My son has some information to tell you. We hope this can help Shirley."Aria's eyes lit up. "What we need the most now is new clues. Thank you."It was then that Lucian lifted his head and looked at Aria. "Before I give you any information, I would like to ask the person in charge a few questions.""I'm the person in charge. Go ahead." Aria handed Sharon a cup of water. "Why don't we sit down and talk?"Lucian felt touched to see his mother respected. "I
Lucian clenched his hands. "This is especially the case for Ms. Wagar. She needs the help of the Karken family to be chosen as the best teacher. That's why she hinted to Shirley not to tell her family.""Ms. Wagar brought Shirley to take a shower." Lucian suddenly raised his head. "Our school is a boarding school with a bathroom right next to the dorms. The surveillance cameras are still working, so they should be able to capture Ms. Wagar taking Shirley to take a shower and change clothes." The surveillance cameras were indeed working. However, the school claimed something was wrong with the system, and the records were gone.This was nothing difficult for Aria. She took out her phone and sent a message. "Recover Summers International School's surveillance camera records. Get the areas around the stadium, the supply room, and the bathroom."After saying that, she asked Lucian, "Do you remember which day it happened?"Lucian could never forget about that day. "March 13th. It was
Lucian explained, "Someone contacted me after I made the anonymous report. They told me to bring the evidence for them to view. I was on alert and hung up the phone without saying anything."He added, "I called them using a public phone."Upon hearing that, Aria stroked his head. "You did great. I'll help you to publicize the things you didn't."Aria stood up while saying that, with Lucian following suit. "Miss."She turned back and saw Lucian's reddened eyes. "The grown-ups said bad people will go to hell. Will Radley and the others go to hell too?"Aria's gaze turned dark. "Of course. They have no reason not to go to hell."Lucian's face tensed up. "I'll wait to see their fate! I was too much of a coward back then. I owe Shirley, but I still want to tell her I managed to fulfill our promise."Lucian managed to pass the video to the person who could avenge Shirley at the right time. Lucian had not been doing well. He suffered from nightmares every night, seeing Radley and the
The old man hung up the call and called his secretary. "Inform my subordinates to report the bullying case as it is. There's no need to cover up anything.""But the Daley family is your—""Forget about that!" The old man pointed to the photo. "We need to give this girl justice!"In the meantime, Aria recovered all the videos and ordered Sam to post them online. Under normal circumstances, such cases wouldn't be made public. Many lawyers had predicted that the worst outcome for the bullies would be detention.However, the people online were stunned as the videos were revealed online. "The victim didn't take her own life. She was killed!""Although the person who provided the evidence got their voices altered, we can still hear that Shirley had been…""Oh, my goodness. Are they really less than 14 years old? They are more evil than demons!"As the bullies' faces were not censored this time, everyone could see their faces.It wasn't just a simple case of exclusion and not gett
Many people who saw Shirley's last words were touched, especially those with kids."How could they do that to such a kind child?""I found out online that Shirley is the daughter of a retired soldier.""They must punish the murderers!"Facing the public's overwhelming comments, the Department of Justice's officer cuffed Gerald.Gerald, who had wielded countless connections, revealed a look of fear for the first time. He widened his eyes when he saw the cuffs on him, screaming that he was innocent. Gerald had merits awarded by the country. He couldn't be dealt with like this!The officer understood what he was getting at. "There is concrete evidence about Radley for murder. The Daley family tried to destroy evidence, bribed officers, and blatantly ignored the law…"Gerald couldn't bear to hear what he said afterward. His face was pale, and his hands kept shaking. How could there be evidence on Radley? Could the Daley family still have a successor?Gerald looked at the officer
There were more comments online."Boys should protect girls! You'll no longer be in pain, Shirley. You're the best. Why don't we become friends in the future? I'm studying at Sunshine Kindergarten's kiddie class. Don't get lost."I don't really know how to type, so Mommy is the one typing it. I can even share my favorite biscuits with you. Shirley, don't worry. Mommy said these bad people will get the punishment they deserve.""I can only say an eye for an eye. Also, please return the merit to Draco."More and more comments were posted beneath the official account. Nobody wanted to forgive the few demons.Radley was a minor, and he relied on the tactics Gerald taught to look confident. However, Aria could tell by a glance if he was really afraid. Tiffany was in shock, with no other thoughts on her mind. Krissa was also crying, and she trembled when she heard she was going to jail. Aria didn't treat them like children. After all, she highly doubted those who thought of the shee
