“This isn’t good. Armand, bring Loredana out of here quickly.”
Boyce was afraid that this might be a conspiracy against Loredana.
Armand agreed. He stepped over Sampson’s corpse and grabbed Loredana’s hand, “Let’s go, Loredana.”
Just as Armand was about to drag Loredana and leave, a group of police officers in uniforms poured in at the entrance and surrounded the place.
“Someone called the police to report a shooting here.”
The leader of this group of police officers walked out.
Boyce narrowed his eyes, ‘It was only a few minutes since the gunshot till now, even if someone had called the police, it was still impossible for them to come so quickly, right?’
If he was still guessing before, then now he was sure that this was a conspiracy against Loredana.
His brain was working fast, ‘Sampson Herbert grabbed Loredana’s hand and shot himself, what was his purpose for doing that?’
‘To frame Loredana for murder?’
Thinking of this possibility, the gun would become the key. Boyce wanted to go over and grab the gun from Loredana’s hand to destroy the evidence. However, he was stopped just as he was about to walk over. “Captain Shawn, this is my case. It’s not your place to interfere.” The other party’s attitude was tough, and with their quick response, it was obvious that arrangements were already made early on.
The police captain in charge raised his hand, “Take the suspect back.”
Armand stood in front of Loredana, “Which one of you dare to make a move?”
The police captain walked over and confronted Armand, “I’m enforcing the law impartially, what do you think you’re doing? You want me to charge you with obstruction of justice?”
Armand wasn’t afraid, even if he was charged, he would not let them take Loredana away.
Boyce signaled Armand an eye gesture, there was no way in this situation that they would be able to take Loredana and leave. They could only do it the hard way. He was going to pester these people and let Armand take advantage of the opportunity to bring Loredana out of there.
“Officer Sharp.” Boyce knew this person. He was just promoted and was a tough guy.
Now it seemed that he wasn’t promoted by chance.
He had someone powerful behind him.
There wasn’t anyone in the bureau that didn’t know about his relationship with Cormac. Knowing that and he still dared to make a move, it just proved that the presence behind him was very powerful. “This dead one is my prisoner. He escaped from prison and I shot him, what’s wrong with that?” Boyce took the matter on himself.00000
It was not easy to deal with Officer Sharp, the newcomer. Officer Sharp took a glance at Loredana, who was still in shock. He smiled and talked to Boyce, “Boyce, do you think I’m stupid? Would the gun be in her hand if you were the one who shot to kill Sampson?”
“She picked it up,” Boyce was still doing his best to justify Loredana.
“Oh, she picked the gun up. The law would defend her from injustice, and that would be good for her,” He significantly paused before he smiled and said, “I hope that we can get your fingerprint from the gun to exonerate her.”
Then, he issued an order, “Take her away.”
Boyce and Armand looked at each other without saying any words, and they had an understanding that Boyce pushed aside the police officers who got in their way while Armand took Loredana by her hands and tried to break from the circle.
Officer Sharp seemed to have precautions for this. Seven or eight people rushed over to Boyce and Armand and blocked the corridor solidly as soon as they moved.
Armand could not rush out of the crowd with Loredana.
Loredana stood petrified with fear when Sampson rushed over to her side to grab the gun from her hand and shot himself.
Loredana thought that she was not coward person. However, she was stunned with fear when she saw Sampson, who laid on the ground with his body covered in blood.
When she came back to her senses, the gun fell to the ground from her hand. Her nature recovered itself with the sound of the gun fell to the ground.
She could probably sum up the situation at a glance.
Officer Sharp gave the order again, “Take her away.”
Five or six police officers made a circle, with Boyce and Armand in the middle, to prevent the two of them from moving again.
Officer Sharp wore gloves and picked the gun from the ground and put it in a plastic bag.
He took a glance at Boyce, who wanted to move but could not, and he shook the bag in his hand and said, “This is the evidence.”
Boyce narrowed his eyes and wanted to play hardball regardless of the consequences.
Loredana perceived that what Boyce wanted to do, then she shook her head at him. She knew that it was a snare. If Boyce and Armand played hardball, they could not take her away, but they would put themselves in this trouble.
“Made a call to him,” she calmly said.
Boyce immediately took his phone out of the pocket. Officer Sharp glanced at Boyce. He could take Loredana legally, but he was unable to stop Boyce contact others. What he needed to do was to take Loredana back to the police station.
Sean walked around the living room of Cormac’s house. He looked at Samuel and Simona, who were both sitting on the sofa.
He mumbled, “How come I didn’t realize it before?”
Samuel and Simona were Cormac’s children.
He could not stay at home at all after he knew the relationship between Loredana and Cormac. He wanted to go to Cormac to confirm his thought.
However, it was true.
“Mr. Lee, what’s wrong with you?” Samuel did not know what happened to Sean. Sean had been here for half an hour and had been looking at Samuel and Simona. Sean kept mumbled from time to time. Why was he behaving like someone possessed?
Sean sat in front of Samuel, “You tell me honestly. Have you been holding out on me?”
Samuel said faithfully, “No.”
“For real?”
Sean showed an attitude of disbelief.
“Mr. Lee taught me never to tell lies, so what I said is true.”
Sean had confidence in Samuel that he would not lie.
“I believe in you. I’ve got your back in the future,” Sean put his hand around Samuel like good buddies, “Let’s go to your room and see.” Victoria was preparing for dinner. Sean used to not go to the old house. Sean went to the old house because Cormac moved into the house. Out of courtesy, Victoria said, “Let’s have dinner together later.”
Sean did not respond to her.
Cormac had a difficult time with Victoria, while Jeffery was incompatible with Victoria as fire and water. So Sean also gave her the cold shoulder.
Simona had developed affection with Victoria after she moved into the house. When she saw Sean ignored Victoria, she got out of the sofa and ran over to Victoria to hug her legs, “Granny, what are you going to cook for me?”
Victoria picked her up, “What do you want to eat? I’ll cook it for you.”
