Facade

Zyler no longer had to worry about the possibility of becoming a mode. 

“Mom, I can talk!” be exclaimed excitedly. But when he raised his head, he noticed everyone else staring at him as though he was an idiot. “Since you’re not injured to the point that you can’t walk, you’ll be following us to the police station as well,” Nathan stated. 

Zyler also thought that Bera was about to receive her jail sentence, so he nodded in agreement. 

He wanted to witness Hera getting thrown into jail. 

Under the passersby’s curious pazes, Nathan look Queenie and Zyler back to the police station. Then, he led them to the detention facility. 

Both Kane and Shaun happened to be away at the moment, leaving only an ethicer keeping Hera company. 

The sight of Hera playing on her phone in her cell put Zyler in a good mood. For a moment, he really wished that Christopher was there to witness this scene. 

But Queenie had a teeing that something was wrong. Still, her sense of superiority muddled her brain just enough to temporarily ignore that weird feeling 

“ch? It turns out that Gideon didn’t even hire a lawyer for you, huh?” she asked mockingly 

Hera was sitting in front of the security camera with the back of her phone facing the camera. She was in the midst of completing the mission Piglet had accepted for her, so the didn’t bother sparing Queenie a glance 

It was then Queenie finally realized why things fell off for her. 

Hera’s cell done was wide open, not to mention she was playing on her phone! Weirdly enough, Brandon was absent as wel 

Typically speaking, suspects detained in the decention facility would have their means of communication confiscated immediately. 

“I’ve brought them here” 

At that moment, Kane and Shaun returned to the cell from the men’s washroom. 

Queenie was shocked when she turned around to see them. She initially thought that Brandon was the one who had invited them to the detention facility. 

Truth be told, Queenie had always wanted to kiss up to the famous Thompson family, who was known for its military prowess and achievements. But she never had a chance to do so in the past. 

How was Brandon able to invite Shaun to this place? 

queenie was perplexed, to say the least. Either she, Zyler, or Hera was the reason why Shaun decided to come 

Since Shaun didn’t come at the Gaskells‘ behest, could it be that he came here because of Hera? 

That was impossible. Her had grown up in the countryside. How was it possible for her to get acquainted with Shaun? 

That was why Queen’s gut told her that Shaun and Kane came to the detention facility because of the Gaskells. 

Some time ago, rumors were circulating about the possibility of the Gaskells working with Raven, which was a major boost in their reputation and fame Recently, their stock prices skyrocketed simply because they were revealed to be extremely close to Dr. Shadow. 

was one natural for Shaun to favor them. 

“Mr. Thompson! Chief Manford! Hi there!” Queene greeted them smilingly. 

She slapped on a friendly demeanor, as though she was close to them. “I didn’t expect you two to come over and personally deal with this miniscule muter of mine. Honestly, I’m 

“This is no miniscule matter, Mrs. Gaskell. Since Brandon can’t deal with this matter properly, be the one dealing with Upon hearing Kane’s answer, Queenie’s weird feeling came back in full force. But she contined smiling at Kane and Shan

At that moment, a police officer led a grap–sulted man wearing a pair of frameless glasses into the building 

“Hello, everyone. I’m Ms Youngworth’s lawyer, Rupert McLaggen * 

Hera stopped keying in the codes for a moment. She quickly raised her head to look at Rupert. 

A lawyer? Did ich hire Rupert for her? 

On the other hand, Queenie’s smile began to fade away the moment she spotted Rupert 

Rupert was a famous lawyer in Jadonia. No common folk would be able to afford to hire him. 

Was he actually Hera’s lawyer? 

The weird feeling that was haunting Queenie began to intensity 

s his stead,” Kane replied senously. 

“chief Manford, Captain Olson, I’ve brought Christopher here.” Another officer led Christopher Into the building at that moment. 

Christopher, why are you here? An ominous feeling began seeping into Zyler’s senses when he saw Christopher. 

Christopher just looked at the Gaskell grimly without responding to them. On the way to the detention facility, he found out what happened from the officer escorting him. 

This time, he was extremely disappointed in Zyler and the rest of the Gasols 

Queenie’s smile had completely disappeared at that point. 

Based on how things were unfolding at the moment, the police didn’t intend to issue Hera a prison sentence. They were actually here to confront Queenie
