Chapter 57
In the lobby, Penny was nearly going mad with worry as she tried to get a lawyer for Nathan.
Even though Carl and his men were all injured, they were still in a good mood upon their ‘victory’.
With a lecherous grin on his face, Carl teased the woman, “Heh! Beautiful lady, you really should give up; no lawyer can help you
now. However, if you agree to sleep with me for the night, I might just be willing to tell Vice-captain Lee to let your husband go.”
The rest of the thugs burst into laughter at their boss’ words, their eyes greedily roving across Penny’s curvaceous figure.
Anger and anxiety swamped Penny but there was nothing she could do.
At that moment, Carl spotted Harold and the other policemen coming out of the holding area. He sauntered over and deliberately
pitched his voice louder as he said, “Vice-captain Lee, look at how badly that b******, Nathan Cross, injured me. Locking him up
is too light a punishment for his crimes!”
Harold’s expression was unfazed as he asked, “Then what would you like me to do?”
Chuckling evilly, Carl replied, “Beat him up in revenge, of course!”
A disdainful look appeared in Harold’s eyes but it was gone in an instant. “Fine, head to the holding cells then.”
Carl’s eyes gleamed. Harold permitting him to enter was basically serving Nathan up on a silver platter. After all, with Nathan
being in the holding cells, that meant that he was most likely in shackles right now. How could I refuse?
There was a gleeful look on Carl’s face as he thanked the other man profusely before heading over to the holding cells.
The two policemen who had escorted him there stopped in front of the door, gesturing for him to head inside alone. Clearly, they
had no intention of going inside as well.
Carl grinned as he nodded in understanding. “Right, you two can’t be there when I beat up Nathan Cross. Plausible deniability
and all that!”
Opening up the door, he walked inside.

The moment he stepped through the door, he heard a loud click as it locked behind him. His heart skipped a beat at the ominous
sound as an uneasy feeling rose in him.
Quickly sweeping a gaze around the room, he soon spotted Nathan sitting on a chair, looking perfectly composed. He was also
not in shackles like Carl had imagined.
Something’s wrong!
The smug smile on Carl’s face froze as he stared in fear at Nathan. Taking several steps backwards, he spun around and
banged on the door. “Open up! Why isn’t he in shackles? Quick, let me out! Let me out of here - Ah!”
Even as painful screams rang out, the two policemen standing outside the door remained expressionless, ignoring them entirely.
At the same time, Harold and Penny were in the control room, watching through the surveillance cameras as Nathan viciously
beat Carl up.
The vice-captain’s smile was ingratiating as he spoke to Penny. “As I said, Ms. Smith, Mr. Cross is perfectly fine. Do you believe
me now?”
Seeing the rapid one-eighty attitude in Harold and the rest of the policemen, Penny was speechless. Nathan was currently
particularly brutal in his actions, not making matters any better.
When Nathan was finally done teaching Carl a painful lesson, Harold and his men accompanied Penny to the holding cells.
The vice-captain barely threw a glance at Carl before he turned to Nathan. “Mr. Cross, do you have any other instructions for
us?”
Nathan’s voice was hard as he replied, “Punish these criminals severely. Also, Carl confessed that they were sent here by Harry
Leigh to cause trouble. Tell Mr. Leigh to pay us thirty million as compensation or suffer the consequences.”
His gaze bore into Harold’s as he spoke his next words. “As for you, I don’t think that you’re worthy of your current rank. You
should go back to basic training.”
