Chapter 670
“Ezekiel and the others were beaten up so badly, and yet we let Donald off the hook. I'm afraid that we might not
be able to answer to the Brown family if they decide to stir an uproar.”
“Answer to them?” Riley shot a glare at Ron. “We are the police force of Yorksland. We don't have to answer to
anyone other than the headquarters in Yaleview. If the Brown family doesn't cause trouble this time, I'll let them off
the hook. However, if they dare to stir trouble, we're going to level the Brown family!”
Level the Brown family?
Ron knew that Riley had gone mad.
They had over thirty police officers at Newcove police station. Even though they were all equipped with guns, they
only had sixteen bullets each. Moreover, they dared not shoot at a real target.
However, things were very different with the Brown family.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey had over seventy young and able men alone. Besides, there were also countless women whom the police
couldn't use brute force on.
Though Ron was befuddled by Riley's newfound confidence, he realized that an inevitable storm was brewing at
Newcove police station.
Donald sent Linda to the hospital. The doctor tended to the wound and said that she was fine. A simple bandage
around the wound would do.
“Darling, why don't you take Mom and Dad over to the resort first? I'm going to deal with the matter at Newcove
police station first.”
Jennifer shook her head. “I'm not in the mood to relax, not when Mom is in this condition. Why don't I accompany
you there?”
Donald pinched Jennifer's nose lightly and said, “It's rare that you get a day off. Don't waste it. You saw how Captain
Hall treated me just now. They won't do anything to me. You go to the resort first. I'll follow soon.”
Jennifer was not close to her family in the past, so opportunities like this for the family to go out and have fun
together were indeed rare.
Thus, Jennifer truly treasured the time they could spend together.
She was initially worried that something might happen to Donald. However, after what he said, Jennifer
contemplated for a moment and uttered, “All right, then. I'm going to take Mom and Dad over to the resort first.
Come meet us up as soon as you can.”
Donald gave her a reassuring glance and drove to Newcove police station.
Initially, he wanted to cooperate with Riley and settle the matter.
However, he was greeted by the sight of bull carriages and trishaws crowding the entrance of the police station
when he arrived.
There were at least a hundred people at the entrance, each holding a hoe or some farming equipment. It was
apparent that they were furious.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man who led the mob with a sickle in his hand, Kane Brown, shouted at Riley, “Riley Hall! What did my son,
Ezekiel, do that you guys keep detaining him? If he's killed someone, then show me the evidence. If he hasn't killed
anyone, release him right this instant!”
“My son too! Release them!”
In the past, the sight of the crowd would make Riley relent.
However, it was different today.
Ezekiel had bitten off more than he could chew, offending someone like Donald.
Donald Campbell was someone the six senior officers in Yaleview ordered him to take good care of. Despite
Newcove police station being a small branch, the city council had sent people over to meet with them on this issue.
The order was clear—they were to report on Donald Campbell to the headquarters, rather than take any matters
into their own hands.
Riley knew that the Brown family was done for. Hence, he felt no fear while facing the rioting mob.
“I believe I don't need to elaborate on the incident of your lackeys stopping a car right in the middle of the road,
right? This is not the first time anyway. I've already highlighted time and again that this is illegal, and you're strictly
prohibited from throwing scarves at people to extort money out of them. But, did any of you heed my warnings?”
