Chapter 30: Break Up
Chapter 30: Break Up
I opened the door and about 7 or 8 men in police uniforms got in one after another. One of them, a fat corpulent middle aged man smiled with his eyes squinted and looked at me," You must be Miss. Toland. I'm the chief of the Liang city police department, William James. Nice to meet you!"
I nodded and led them to the lobby. Then I ran to the upstairs to call Wayne to go downstairs.
After about half an hour, we already drunk several glasses of water. We were antsy and looked at each other in silence. When the atmosphere was more and more dignified, Wayne walked down stairs from the upstairs unhurriedly.
Chief James put down his cup instantly and walked to Wayne with big steps. He reached out his hand with his face full of smile," Mr. Gilbert, long time no see."
I signed dolefully. It was a truth that the treatment to a normal citizen and a big shot was like the difference between the ground and the sky. The chief of a police department had to be polite and gentle to Wayne.
I made some cups of coffee in the kitchen and brought to them.
In the lobby, Wayne had his legs crossed, his sitting posture was sedate and elegant. He was knocking the table by his finger making a sound of rub-a-dub!
"Mr. Gilbert, my apology to bother you . About what happened yesterday, it was my subordinates faults to listen the calumny said by Jerry Smith and nearly caused a big mistake. I brought these men to offer an apology here. As for Nelly and Jerry, I asked to caught them already. How about prosecute them with the charge of libel and false accusation?"
Chief James looked at Wayne with a overcautious face and the men followed him were chiming in with him with smiles. Lighted the cigarette and poured water for him reverently.
"Do what you have to do about it."
"Mr. Gilbert, as a policeman, making a false accusation violates the law as he knowing the law. Our department will be severe in treatment and make it clear for you. Is Miss. Toland's injury any better?"
I passed the coffee in my hand to Chief James instantly," I'm fine, just slapped in face for several times by them. It will be ok after some days. And...Right, I hope Chief James can keep the secret about this issue. My friend is doing entertainment business now. If this kind of issue is caught by the reporters, you understand the consequence."
Chief James replied with smile," Of course, I will ask my subordinates to close their mouths. Miss. Toland, it was our faults this time. This is my number, please feel free to call me to contact me if you need any help. I will help you as possible as I can by your call."
Chief James gave me his phone number and I wrote it down instantly.
The only reason I stayed with Wayne was getting the relationships in the police department to investigate the abduction case, to find my sister! This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Even though I got some grievances this time in the police station, I got good out of misfortune, too. Of course, Chief James was polite and gentle to me since the influence to Wayne.
After that, Chief James said some altisonant words and Wayne replied perfunctorily. Not long, Chief James raised up and took leave of us.
The atmosphere was cold again when Chief James left. I looked at the strange enigmatic appearance and finally said," Wayne, you..."
He interrupted me when I had not finished yet," What the relationship between Geoffrey and you?"
I reacted after a long while when I heard the name of Geoffrey from his mouth first time. I raised my head and looked at him alarmedly.
"What do you mean by your words?"
"Lydia, let's break up! I don't want a woman with a impure mind aside me. Climb on my bed, revenge on Geoffrey and Katherine isn't it?" He sneered, the sight on me was freezing cold.
I suddenly returned to my sense. Wayne would not mention this without any reason. Did he heard the call between me and Merlin?
Then the sound of steps I heard was not an illusion at all. He really was there at the door and heard the words I said.
"Wayne, you don't trust me? You think that I approach you and badger with you to only revenge on Geoffrey?"
”Isn't it?"
I sneered," Wayne, I thought you had a high intelligence, but now, since this, your brain does not work very well, too. Does a bastard deserve me to revenge on and sacrifice my whole life's happiness to badger with you?"
"Lydia, I heard the conversation between you and Merlin last night without leaving a single word behind by my own ears. You want to marry me and let Geoffrey calling you sister in law!" He stared at me and his eyes were burning red.
" Although I get in relationship with to revenge on Geoffrey, where you get the rights to blame me? Are you far more better? You can't give me promise and even a little sense of security. Maybe one day I will be kicked away. We are together to take what we want from each other, aren't we?"
I said those words with one breath, then I looked at his eyes like that with a emulative flame of anger raising in my eyes.
