- Chapter 295 - Is the Lamont Family Afraid of Ridicule?
Zane smiled slightly as he waited for Maverick to fall from the highest peak. Unexpectedly, the plainclothes policeman finally targeted Zane. It was like the final confirmation of the target. The policeman then took out his police certificate and said, “Mr. Zane. You need to cooperate with our investigation of a case. Please come with us.”
The man’s voice was not high, but it was like thunder roaring. And the atmosphere at the scene took a sharp turn.
Even Levi, a fence-sitter, was surprised.
Levi thought, ‘It shouldn’t be… It seems more reasonable that the police will take Maverick away.’ Levi believed that Maverick had a backup plan. But Levi thought that Maverick could not escape. He never thought that the police would come to Zane.
“Did you make a mistake?” Zane was sitting in the wheelchair and had a complicated expression on his face. Shock, confusion, anger, and resentment were intertwined.
Waiting to see other people make a fool of them, Zane never expected that he would become a joke.
After a moment of silence, people in the hall gradually started to discuss.
“The police will take Zane back to investigate. I said that Maverick would definitely be the final winner.”
“He may be afraid that a long delay means trouble. So he decided to make a move at this time. Maverick is amazing.”
“I’m afraid Zane won’t be able to make a comeback. Look at him, he’s a disabled person. How can he compete with Maverick? What can he do?”
The police probably had seen such a reaction many times. He gestured at Zane to leave and did not explain much.
The person who was summoned would have a fluke mentality and look very innocent. But it was the judges that decided whether or not he was guilty. The police just did things according to the instructions. Without evidence, they could not rush to the Lamont family’s dinner party to arrest Zane.
The case was just a seemingly ordinary murder case. The police had met so many such cases. However, the identity of the person who died this time was special. The dead was an online celebrity and countless netizens were paying attention to the case. Because the police did not make any progress, they had a headache. A long delay meant trouble. Once they found out something, they would immediately come here to take the suspect away.
The impartial and incorruptible policeman was cold and did not want to say more. Zane pursed his lips into a thin blade and nodded when he realized that he had asked a stupid question. “I will go with you.”
However, Levi had yet to figure out the situation and asked the police officer who would take Zane away, “What exactly is it? Why can’t you ask him here? Why must you take him back?”
Levi did not care much about Zane, but he wanted to control the situation. He hoped that Zane and Maverick could supervise each other, not letting either one become the strongest. It was Levi’s way of holding power.
“No comment. Please understand what we do and cooperate with the investigation.”
“Go,” Zane urged impatiently, not wanting to look at Levi anymore.
At this time, Levi still wanted to show off his prestige. He was afraid that Maverick would become the sole power in the future, and he would not have the opportunity to act mighty.
Zane had met too many malicious gazes from the crowd. However, with so many pairs of eyes on him, he still felt angry. And he coldly stared at Maverick.
Receiving Zane’s intense hatred, Maverick raised his glass and gracefully toasted Zane in the air.
Maverick knew that Zane didn’t expect such a situation. So the hatred in Zane’s cold eyes was so horrifying. Maverick did not doubt that Zane wanted to kill him.
As the wheelchair passed by Maverick, Zane stopped for a moment. Zane probably wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.
Everly stood beside Maverick, and she could clearly see that Zane held the wheelchair so hard that the veins of his hands bulged.
There was a saying, a barking dog did not bite, and vice versa.
Although Zane did not say anything, Everly knew that he would definitely come back again. He would definitely counterattack crazily, and he would have more hatred towards Maverick.
Anyway, it was good that Maverick was not taken away. But Everly’s hanging heart was not able to completely relax.
Zane was taken away just like that. What about Edmond?
Everly subconsciously gripped Maverick’s hand. His big hand was warm and dry, giving her a special sense of security. Maverick was also able to detect her feelings changing.
Maverick retracted his gaze and looked back at Everly, who was full of worry. She was a qualified mother. Before her words, he knew what she was thinking. “Zane signed a contract with me. He will not break the contract.”
Even if Zane was caught, he would not change this contract.
If Zane broke his promise at this time, he would not get any benefits. He could not even protect himself.
Maverick only said one sentence, and his usual tone could smooth Everly’s emotional folds.
She trusted him.
Everly secretly adjusted her feelings. When she lowered her head, she let out a sigh of relief. However, she felt Maverick stroking her palm. Everly’s hands were soft and small. Maverick felt her hands were like clay that he played with Candy.
“Worried about me?” Maverick touched the cold sweat on Everly’s palm. She appeared very calm. Maverick unconsciously smiled. Staying with her, he felt peaceful even in the dirty place of the Lamont family.
Maverick could finally see colors besides gray in his life.
He liked her very much. He wanted to carefully collect her, protect her, and monopolize her for the rest of his life.
Everly thought, ‘That’s right, I am worried about you.’ But Everly was too shy to tell the truth in front of so many people.
Women were more meticulous and thought about many things. Right now, Zane was only temporarily taken away. The police did not say that he was going to be sentenced publicly. Everly did not know if he would be released soon.
Maverick could think of the same thing as what she could think. He could consider even more. As Maverick’s partner, Everly thought she had better be strong. She did not want to become a burden to him.
Not wanting Maverick to feel guilty, Everly pretended to be fine and smiled. “You are so powerful. I believe in you.”
Men would like to be praised, especially someone like Maverick who was a chauvinist.
Maverick felt warm. He did not expose Everly’s lie, let alone a beautiful lie with love.
Levi came back with a pale face. He sent Zane to the police car. He followed them all the way. However, he did not get any information from the police or Zane.
Zane, a brat, was even more infuriating. Levi remembered Zane staring at him with a half-smile and refusing to say anything. Zane was even happy to see embarrassed Levi.
Ever since the last time they had shed all pretense of cordiality, Zane was no longer willing to suffer.
Levi thought, ‘Didn’t I do this for Zane? That’s right. I also did this for myself. But is that wrong?
A heartless ingrate!’
Levi felt his scalp tingle when he thought of Maverick, such a wolf. There was no doubt that this was Maverick’s counterattack.
Maverick must know everything. But would Maverick say it?
Levi had just kicked an iron plate, so he didn’t go to Maverick for unpleasant things. But he didn’t wear a good face, “We are all family. Don’t go too far. Otherwise, people will treat us as a joke.”
“Is the Lamont family afraid of ridicule?” Maverick shook the wine glass in his hand. “Only those with no ability will care about such things.”
Maverick was right. Back then, the Lamont family rose and divided up the Waller family. Were they afraid of being laughed at?
In terms of strength, even outsiders would have to put on a smile to the Lamont family.
A capable person would not fear the eyes of others.
“Will we reveal Edmond’s identity?” Maverick’s blue veins stood out as he tried to find a way out.
