Chapter 194 No Way Out


    Otis was usually affable, but even he was outraged by what Adam had done. “Regardless of who he is,


    you shouldn’t be arresting anyone without proper grounds!”


    Adam shamelessly turned to Jerome. “Mr. Grayson, you know I’ve always maintained my


    professionalism at work.”


    Jerome didn’t want to be associated with Adam at all. “That’s enough out of you, Adam! Officers, take


    him away!”


    Initially, Jerome nned on covering up as many scandals and bad track records as possible before


    Lucas‘ arrival.


    He’d even reminded every precinct under hismand to do the same. He had been convinced that


    Lucas wouldn’t be able to find any dirt on his precincts if they covered their tracks well enough.


    More importantly, he didn’t want to get on Lucas‘ bad side.


    However, what Adam just did gave Lucas enough reason to look into the precincts‘ past


    activities.


    Jerome would be wise to keep Adam quiet.


    At Jerome’smand, the interrogators made to seize Adam.

    At that moment, Wynter spoke from where she stood in the center of the room. Her tone was soft, and


    she sounded nothing like a civilian who had just been arrested.


    She even smiled as she said, “Hold on, Mr. Grayson. I’m the suspect here, and I think I have the right


    to decide how and when this case is closed.”


    Wynter wouldn’t let these officers release her so quickly, not when they had wrongfully arrested her.


    She refused to let them get away with this that easily.


    She had always believed in retribution.


    Wynter never nned on brushing off this incident. After all, these officers had used her of


    wrongdoing and tried to set her up.


    That said, she’d been surprised when Dom and his friend showed up when the arrest took ce.


    Taking revenge on these officers was as easy as shooting fish in a barrel. There was no way Wynter


    would let this chance slide, especially not after all the plotting she’d done.

    Looking at Jerome, she said slowly, “I’d like to hear what Captain Weissman has to say,”


    Jerome’s heart dropped to his stomach when he heard this.


    It was only then that he properly looked at Wynter. She was beautiful, with skin like double cream and


    dazzling eyes. It was hard for anyone to not notice her looks right away,


    However, upon closer inspection, Jerome sensed that she was not a naive youngdy, Despite


    Wynter’s age, there was a sharpness in her eyes that told him she missed nothing,


    In all his years of working cases, Jerome had never met any young person with Wynter’s calm


    presence and knowing gaze.


    Jerome had been eager to wrap this case up,


    but now he feared that would not happen.


    Much to his dismay, Adam piped up hopefully like an idiot, “Mr. Grayson, the suspect wants to hear me


    out!“.


    Jerome gritted his teeth. He dared not give Adam any implicating looks, since Otis and Lucas were


    both staring at him. As such, he clenched his fists,


    However, Dom was bright enough to catch on. “Well, the captain does owe us an exnation as to why


    he arrested this youngdy.


    She’s an excellent student who gives free medical consultations to the residents of Harmony


    Community.”


    Otis‘ blood ran cold at the mention of Harmony Community.


    He had heard about the youngster who was new to themunity and adored by the leaders.


    Impressive medical skills aside, the youngster was also said to be extremely fair and level-


    headed.


    The leaders were known to have high standards, but they wouldud the youngster with praise


    whenever her name came up in conversations.


    At this point, Otis was so angry he couldbust on the spot. He pointed at Adam angrily and said,


    “You…”


    He came close to cussing at Adam.


    Adam was still in a daze when Jerome came up with a n to resolve this. “All right, Adam, go ahead


    and exin to us why you’ve arrested this youngdy.


    Adam’s eyes lit up at this. All he had to do was say he’d mistaken Wynter for someone else. He would


    be let off the hook then.

    As if Wynter would allow that. She smiled and fixed her dark gaze on Jerome. “Mr. Grayson, I doubt


    there’s been a misunderstanding. I’m a streamer, after all, which makes me a public figure.”


    She paused and pointed at the middle–aged woman who was trying to sneak away. “Besides, the


    person who reported me to the cops is here as a witness.”
