Chapter 549 Arrest Them
Chapter 549 Arrest Them
"Ah, it's the few of you that are being so lawless?" As the accusatory voice of Autumn Abott echoed, a man with a handsome face and aggressiveness seeping out of his facial features walked over. He waved his hand and ordered imperatively, "Arrest all these people.”
"Yes, sir." A few people were about to step forward at once.
Susan Shelby frowned and said coldly, "Are you going to arrest me?"
Susan’s demeanor was so calm that it piqued Holden Abott's interest. He raised an eyebrow and then said excitedly, "Why, can't I?"
What's my offence?" asked Susan calmly.
Holden scoffed coldly once and then pointed at Autumn. "Intentional injury. The witness is still right before your eyes."
"Shelby, I hope you die for beating me up like this." Autumn’s voice sounded as sharp as nails scratching against metal. It was irritating to the ears.
Susan raised an eyebrow. "Intentional injury? Had this woman not taken a chopping knife and shouted aggressive remarks first, why would I have injured her? Now that I think about it carefully, I was only defending myself. The chopping knife that you attempted to injure me with is still in the car. Comrades, you can take it and get it tested to see if this woman's fingerprints are on it."
Holden's eyes rolled, yet he said, "I can see that you don't seem to be injured! Even if Autumn's fingerprints are found on the chopping knife, it's most likely because you sent someone to steal it from the Dunns. It's not enough evidence."
"Hear that? It’s not enough evidence!" said Autumn proudly at once.
Susan was stunned for a moment. She suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at Holden calmly. "What's your relationship with Autumn?"
Autumn could almost not conceal the joy in her eyes as she said loudly, "You still don't know, huh? This is my elder brother and deputy director general of Jerucity! You beat a person like me, huh? I think you might have a death wish."
A look of enlightenment appeared in Susan's eyes.
She had been thinking that Autumn was especially fearless and had been making a big fuss over a small issue. Plus, she had been all about defending the fishwife with her words.
"Alright, let’s not talk nonsense anymore. Take these people away." Holden waved his hand.

Rivera and Bruce wanted to resist subconsciously.
"Let them arrest you." Susan spoke up to stop them with an ice-cold gaze in her eyes. "I’d like to see what they can actually do. There’s still law and order in this world after all.”
Law and order?
Holden sniggered coldly and said straightforwardly, "What are you still waiting for? Take action!" These few people surrounded them and arrested Susan, Bruce, and Rivera.
"I'd like to see how you will still feel proud of yourself, little b*tch!” Autumn walked over arrogantly, ready to give Susan a slap.
Rivera's gaze turned cold as he struggled to get free from the person seizing him instantly. He raised his hand and shielded Susan.
Autumn’s hand landed on the ice-cold handcuffs at once. She screamed out in agony right away.
"Do you believe that I..." said Holden furiously.
Susan interrupted his words without any expression on her face. "Deputy DG Abott, are you sure that you wish to bully the few of us on this busy street?” "Heh heh... Are you threatening me? I’m not afraid to tell you that even if someone does see something, no one will have the courage to spread it outside!” said Holden. However, he suppressed his anger forcefully before he ordered someone to shove Susan and the others into the car.
"Holden, you can’t just leave this matter like that!” screamed out Autumn.
"Don't embarrass me here." Holden lowered his voice. "We'll take her back first and see what we can do when we're back in my territory. How’s that?"
“You’re right." Autumn was delighted.
Her eyes glimmered with a proud glint for a moment.
'Hmph, Shelby is obviously a little b*tch yet she pretends to be a pure, innocent fairy maiden usually. Don't think that I don’t know that b*stard Jay can't refrain from taking a few extra glances every time he sees this woman.'
'Some people are born with the ability to seduce others inherently.'
However, she would make this woman lose the assets she used to seduce others after today.
All sorts of malevolent ideas ran through Autumn's mind. The more she thought about it, the happier she felt in her heart.
A few cars drove away swiftly, leaving behind a group of people that was gathering to watch the bustling scene, unaware of the truth.
"Who were those three people?" someone could not refrain from asking.
The person beside him took a glance at him. "You're not from around here, are you?"
The other person could not help expressing his surprise. "You can tell?"
"How could a local recognize the Overlord of Jerucity?" That person lowered his voice. "Nine out of the ten people arrested by that Holden guy are innocent. They must have just offended the Little Overlord without realizing it. The Little Overlord is seeking revenge."
"He's a deputy director general. I thought there’s someone superior to him? How can he be so lawless?" The other person was startled.
“Heh heh... You don’t know this, but the Little Overlord is the director general’s son-in-law..."
The passersby were discussing softly and expressing their sympathy for Susan and the others arrested by him with their words. However, Holden was renowned for his ruthlessness, so there was nothing else they could do other than talk softly.
At the corner of the street, a low profile luxury car was waiting quietly.
Julian Shaw's face was already so dim that it was akin to a rainy, cloud-covered sky as he sat in the car.
Great! Very well!
The deputy director general of Jerucity had the audacity to arrest someone right away indiscriminately!
The person arrested was still his woman.
Only god knew that he had almost lost control of himself when he had seen Susan being taken away.
Julian's expression was terrifying in the meantime. The secretary by his side took a cautious glance at him. "Mr. Shaw, what is our next step...”
"Follow them," said Julian expressionlessly.
The driver started the car and followed from an appropriate distance that was not too far or too close.
Holden took Susan, Rivera, and Bruce to the station.
As soon as they arrived at the station, he gave orders right away. "Put her in the interrogation room. I shall interrogate her personally.”
Rivera and Bruce followed Susan closely.
However, Holden ordered someone to separate them. "Why are you two in such a rush? Stay outside. I'm going to interrogate you one by one!"
Rivera and Bruce attempted to struggle free.
However, Susan said nonchalantly, "Stay outside, both of you. Can the son-in-law of the director general be so rampant? If no one is capable of punishing him in Jerucity, I believe that someone from another place can."
Rivera and Bruce shifted their gazes. They had realized something in their minds so they did not insist anymore.
Holden immediately let out a cold scoff." You're a big talker, woman. I'd like to see who you are going to send to punish me!"
Soon, a ferocious expression flashed past his face. "Toss this woman into the interrogation room for me!"
