Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 362 Donald remained unfazed.

He even propped his feet on the desk, completely dismissing the Alckers presence.

Mr.

Warren, please release Andrew, Francesca demanded coldly.

Why should 1? A fraud belongs in prison.

Donald scoffed.

Wheres your evidence? Francesca snapped.

Donald replied, The evidence is for the judge, not for you

Now, all you Aickers better leave Office immediately, or you wont be able to handle the consequences of obstructing justice.

Mr.

Warren, Andrew is not a criminal, Cedric said gravely.

Moreover, he knows Mr.

Thatcher personally.

Youd better not do anything rash.

Donald sneered.

Doctor, dont try to manipulate me

Hes just a nobody even if hes met the mayor once, does that count as knowing him? Donald, do you really want this to escalate to the mayors office ? Cedric pressed.

If it comes to that, no one will be able to protect you.

Cedric, youre being ridiculous, Donald mocked

As the chief commissioner of Jayrodales police department, I am the law here

Do I need anyones protection? Who in Jayrodale would dare touch me? Donald leisurely lit a cigarette, his face full of contempt

Both Cedric and Francesca felt frustrated and helpless, knowing that the Aickers current manpower was not enough to oppose Donald.

Just then, an icy voice sounded from outside the office.

My, my, Mr.

Warren, such authority you wield, claiming to be the law of Jayrodale

Are you saying you alone control everything in this city? As the voice faded, Lauren entered the room, her expression icy.

Donald frowned, Ms.

Rhodes, dont tell me youre here for that nobody too, just like the Aickers ? Release him.

Now! Lauren commanded.

Donald struggled to contain his anger.

Ms.

Rhodes, lets be reasonable.

This is the police department, not the Rhodes Corporation

Isnt it a bit much to barge in demanding I release someone? Isnt it also a bit much to abuse your power and make false arrests, Mr.

Warren? Lauren responded coldly.

Donald slammed his desk, his anger finally erupted

Lauren, accusations require evidence ! D Chapter 362 you really think I wont hold the

Rhodes family accountable for slandering my reputation and integrity? Lauren narrowed her bright eyes, Im not here to argue

Are you going to release him or not? Donalds expression turned ugly.

He felt that the Rhodes heiress was being too aggressive and disrespecting his position as the commissioner

He replied, Even if you are the Rhodes heiress, you cant interfere with police business.

Im sorry, but I cant release him.

Lauren nodded, Fine.

Since you wont listen to reason, Ill have to make you understand the hard way.

With that, she pulled a gun from her purse and pressed it against Donalds forehead

What are you doing? Are you really going to risk murdering a public official? Donald screamed, his eyelids twitching frantically.

He never imagined Lauren would dare to go this far.
