Chapter 37
Chapter 37
Gilbert's men threw out Charles while he was still confused after being scolded.
Everything was still fine earlier, but Gilbert's attitude toward him changed after
receiving the call.
Charles felt a chill down his spine when a thought suddenly popped into his
head. Could the call have something to do with Liam?
Charles used his connection and found out that Liam was in the
military. However, he could not find out which specific region Liam belonged to.
That was why he came to Gilbert He wanted Gilbert to help him take a look.
Unexpectedly, Gilbert received the call from Athenapolis before
Charles could talk to him about it
“Quick! Take me back to Drunham City” said Charles
The more he thought about it, the more he panicked. He just had a feeling that
he could not describe Gilbert's attitude toward him earlier made that feeling
stronger than before
He had to rush home and tell his brother about this. He feared that
Liam was more than he led on
His subordinate did not dare to waste any time either. He stepped on the gas and
rushed toward Drunham City.
However, the car was stopped by a group of armed soldiers when it arrived at the
gates of the Southern Division.
The driver was frightened by the suddenly appearing soldiers and quickly
slammed on the brakes. The emergency brake caused a screeching sound to
ring out.

Charles jerked forward because of the inertia from the brake. He looked ahead
with a frosty expression and bellowed, “Go find out what's going on!"
Before his subordinate in the front could get out of the car, the soldiers in front
had his car surrounded. A few soldiers opened the doors and pointed their guns
at Charles and his subordinates.
One of them said indifferently, “Charles, we have orders from above to detain you
for the time being. From now on, you're not allowed to have any contact with the
outside world.”
Charles was infuriated that they were pointing their guns at him. He was a
principal staff officer of the Southern Division, yet he was being held at gunpoint
in his own territory and was told he would be detained.
That was indelibly embarrassing for him.
“This is ridiculous! I'm a principal staff officer of the Southern Division. I'm from
the Walker family of Drunham City. How dare you detain me?” Charles shouted
hysterically while looking at the group of
soldiers.
“I'm the one who gave the order.” A frosty voice rang out.
Then, a middle-aged man in a combat uniform walked out of the
crowd.
Charles’ expression darkened after he saw the man. He frowned and said,
“Donald, how are you going to detain me? We share the same rank. What right
do you have to detain me?”
Both Donald Beckett and Charles were principal staff officers of the Southern
Division and had the same rank. Why did Donald suddenly
want to detain Charles?
Donald had disdain written all over his face as he looked at Charles.
Both of them held the same position, but because Charles was a member of the
Walker family. He would always act all high and
mighty.

Upon saying, he waved his hand. Then, two men walked forward in big strides
and pulled Charles out of the car. Charles’ subordinate in the front of the car was
also detained.

and roared, “Do you think I have nobody to back me up? Listen up.
