At this point, they had already checked the surveillance tapes and had a rough idea of what had happened.
Now, all they needed was to interrogate the crowd for their accounts of the event.
The arrival of Xavier seemed to dampen the spirits of Hae-jin and his men. Despite that, they still had an arrogant
air around them and were not particularly respectful towards the policemen who had questioned them.
According to Hae-jin, Triple Group was an incredibly important company that would greatly aid the development of
North Hampton in the future. Since he would be the successor someday, that meant that he was not someone
whom they could touch.
In no time at all, Xavier had reached his verdict.
“After a thorough investigation, I hereby pronounce Park Hae-jin guilty of wrong-way driving! He is to bear full
responsibility for the reparation costs of the accident, both for himself and for Ms. Zoey Lopez. At the same time,
his driver’s license shall be revoked and he is not allowed to sit for the driver’s license test in Erudia, for the next
five years. In addition to that, he is to be detained for the next fifteen days.”
After he was done with that announcement, he quickly snuck a glance at Levi.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZoey nodded, “Captain Fields, there’s no need for Mr. Park to reimburse me. I’m already insured so I just need to
talk to my insurance company. Thank you for serving me justice!”
The crowd cheered and applauded as well, evidently happy with his decision.
Xavier could feel his blood pounding in his ears as he flushed in pleasure.
Who knew that serving the people would feel so good? What a sense of accomplishment!
“What!” Hae-jin was stunned at what he was hearing.
Previously, he had done something even worse than this at South City, and yet, he had not even gotten a single
demerit point.
Now, his driver’s license was being revoked and he had to be detained?
Infuriated, he yelled, “Do you know who I am? Retract your punishment immediately or you’ll be sorry!”
Xavier glared at him coldly and ordered his men, “Take him away! Arrest whoever dares to interfere too!”
With that, Hae-jin was dragged away by the policemen.
Chang-wook and the others wanted to stop his arrest, but unfortunately, they were too helpless to do anything. All
they could do was stare, as their boss was shoved inside one of the police cars.
Before he entered, Hae-jin snarled at Levi, “Rest assured that I’ll be out soon enough. Just you wait!”
Completely ignoring the threat, Levi instructed the captain, “Set the bail money for… at least five million. Use that
money on the development of North Hampton.”
“Okay, understood!” Xavier nodded. Respect and admiration shone in his eyes as he looked at Levi.
Even now, all he can think about is the future of North Hampton!
“Honey, I’ll drop you off at work first before getting you another car.”
Zoey and Iris were shooting Levi curious glances.
All it took was one phone call from him, and this entire matter was settled.
The two women exchanged glances, seeming to understand what the other was thinking.
The boss of Morris Group must have been the one to resolve this issue. There’s no way that it was Levi!
Meanwhile, inside the office of Triple Group in North Hampton.
“What! Mr. Hae-jin was arrested?” Horace’s tone was disbelieving, matching the shocked expression on his face.
He demanded, “Who has actually dared to do that? Don’t they know who he is?”
“It was Xavier Fields himself!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHorace’s face fell before he uttered, “He personally arrested Mr. Hae-jin? Come with me, quickly! We have to bail
Mr. Hae-jin out!”
It did not take him long to arrive at the police station.
Upon hearing that the bail was set at five million, he was taken aback.
“Mr. Waller, you have to understand that wrong-way driving is quite a serious crime.”
Horace did not hesitate in paying the bail. Regardless of whether it was ten million, or even one hundred million, it
was not like he had any other choice but to pay.
Thus, Hae-jin was released from jail.
Gritting his teeth, he bit out, “I want you to conduct a background check on a few people for me. I won’t let them
go for doing this to me!”
“No worries, Sir. I’ll see to it immediately!” Horace assured.
“Give me the car keys!” Hae-jin demanded with his hand held out.
“Ah, I can’t do that, Sir! Your driver’s license is still revoked, so you’re not allowed to drive in Erudia for the next five
years!”
Disregarding the other man’s protests, Hae-jin snatched the keys from him. His lips pulled up into a sneer and he
boasted, “So what if I’m driving without a license? As if anybody would have the guts to do anything about it!”
