Seeing Boyce’s reaction, Armand chuckled, “You are still acting like a gentleman, aren’t you?”
Boyce ignored him.
Inexplicably, Armand was in a good mood. He wondered in his mind, ‘How could there be such a person like Boyce?’
‘Haha!’
When Boyce returned to the station, a person asked him whether he was fine.
The staff in the Department of Investigation had come to the station to find Boyce. Since they said that Boyce had returned home, the staff in the Department of Investigation went to Boyce’s house to find him. Normally, it was not a good thing if one was approached by the staff in the Department of Investigation.
They asked him that question because everyone was concerned about him.
Boyce said that he was fine.
After he had finished talking, he walked towards his office. Wendy coincidentally saw him when she was coming out of Officer Miller’s office.
She seemed to be quite surprised that he could return to the station so soon.
“Boyce.”
Boyce turned around and saw her. She stood at a position that was not far away from him and had a vicious look on her face.
“You told my father about the matter, didn’t you?” She appeared there because Officer Miller had called her over to the station.
Officer Miller knew that the staff in the Department of Investigation had come to the station. A few days ago, Officer Miller unintentionally saw a picture of Boyce and Jasmine on his daughter’s phone. When the staff in the Department of Investigation came there to find Boyce, Officer Miller asked them why they needed to find Boyce. The staff in the Department of Investigation said that someone had anonymously reported Boyce for inappropriate conduct. They even showed him the picture that was provided by the person.
At once, Officer Miller understood what was going on, so he called his daughter over to the station.
He initially wanted to verify whether she had reported this. In the end, she was unaware of this and told him the real reason why she divorced her husband.
Officer Miller was so angry that he almost fainted.
Wendy who made a slip of the tongue thought that Boyce didn’t keep the promise and he told Officer Miller the matter.
Boyce was very disdainful, “I always do what I have said.”
“You lied! You clearly told my father about the matter. Otherwise, how did he know about this?” Wendy had a grim look on her face.
Boyce had a cold gaze, “You know best when it comes to your own matters. As for how Officer Miller knew about this, I can only say that the truth will always prevail.” “You…” Wendy was so angry that she could not speak. She could only stare at him fiercely. If looks could kill, Boyce would already be killed by Wendy many times. Suddenly, she laughed coldly, “You should not act like a gentleman. Aren’t you the same as most men? Marrying a university student is quite nice, isn’t it?” Wendy’s words became more and more awful.
Boyce had a cold look on his face, “Talk to me with some respect!”
Wendy laughed and raised her head, “I will have no respect for you. What can you do to me?”
The people who others fear most are people who act like Wendy. They don’t want anything, don’t care about anything and will make reckless decisions in dire situations. Nobody can reason with this kind of person.
Boyce pushed open the door of his office. When he was about to enter his office, Wendy rushed towards him and pulled the door handle.
Boyce took a step backwards and distanced himself from her.
He acted as if she was something dirty.
He didn’t hide his contempt for her, “What do you want to do?”
“Boyce, you went back on your word. Then, I can also go back on my word. If I am having a hard time, you can also forget about living a good life…”
“It was you who reported me.”
Before she could finish speaking, Boyce interrupted her.
“As a person, there is a limit to my patience. If you do this again…”
“What can you do? Are you going to hit me?” Wendy was certain that he didn’t dare to hit her. She purposely arched towards him, “You can try to hit me.”
“Wendy!”
At some point in time, Officer Miller walked up to them. He was livid. If he didn’t have an experience of fainting due to anger, at that moment, his daughter would have made him feel so angry that he fainted. “Immediately leave now!” Officer Miller said sternly. His tone implied that he would not allow her to refuse his orders.
Wendy was unwilling to back down. She thought that she suffered a loss because Boyce had deceived her.
“But he…”
“Do you want me to die because of anger?” Officer Miller placed his hands on his chest and almost couldn’t breathe. Wendy bit her lip, stomped her foot and snorted. She deliberately bumped into Boyce and strode towards the exit. Officer Miller stood on the same spot. After a long time, he managed to recollect himself and said, “Boyce, come in with me.” Boyce followed Officer Miller into his office.
They entered Officer Miller’s office.
Officer Miller said, “Close the door.”
Boyce closed the door completely, turned around and looked at Officer Miller. Officer Miller was standing in front of the window. His hands were behind his back. He had lost a lot of weight due to his illness. “Officer Miller…”
“When did you know that she got divorced because of her?”
Officer Miller’s voice was much hoarser.
“I found out about it unintentionally not long ago,” Boyce said with reservations.
He couldn’t just tell Officer Miller that Cormac had looked into it.
Officer Miller let out a sullen breath, “I’ve lived a life of failure.”
His daughter was not well educated.
He had even lost face in front of his subordinates at the age of retirement.
Boyce didn’t say anything.
There was nothing to say.
Wendy and her mother were the same kinds of people. It wouldn’t be easy for anyone who stumped by the two, not to mention Officer Miller, who wanted to save face.
“Why didn’t you tell me when you know about it?” Officer Miller turned around to look at him.
Boyce said, “I know you want to save face and don’t want you to bother with this.”
“Hmm.” Officer Miller walked to the seat and sat down, “Do I still have your respect?”
“Yes…”
“Cut it out.” Officer Miller interrupted him pondered for a moment, “I’m getting old, reaching my retirement age and I’m planning to retire early.”
