S31 89. Patricia’s Rage

Horrified, the twins immediately leaned closer to their father. Frank reassured them with a brief smile.

“Mrs. Moore, we are sorry for the misfortune that befell your family. You need to know, we had no intention of bringing anyone down. All we did was defending ourselves. You were the ones who attacked us first in various ways. Your husband even intended to shot my son

earlier.”

“Don’t distort the facts!” Patricia pointed her finger at Frank. “You came here on purpose and created chaos. Then you accused my husband of nonsense even though you were the one who was at fault!

“Are you angry because we broke the tables and chairs here?” Louis spoke up. “Sorry. But we did it because we didn’t want to be thrown overboard.”

“Yes, Louis and I don’t want to be separated.”

“Shut up! I’ve had enough of your acting.”

Before Patricia cursed any longer, Frank straightened his hand. That’s enough, Mrs. Moore. I hope you can learn from the mistakes o your husband and daughter. If you kept blaming us, it’s not impossible that you will end up the same as your husband.”

Patricia gasped. Her roaring breath hitched.

“What do you mean? You’re accusing me of being involved in smuggling too?” Her voice dropped drastically.

Frank shook his head. “I don’t have any proof of that right now. So, I can’t make such accusations. It’s just that, if you continue to corner

my children, I could sue you for unpleasant conduct.

Patricia didn’t dare to speak any more. Her mouth shut, her gaze narrowed at the twins.

Seeing that Patricia was under control, a police officer approached. Excuse me, Mister Harper. We need information from you and your children. Are you willing to come with us?”

“Should we move to another ship?” Louis’ eyes widened. Victor’s words were still ringing in his mind, about how they would be sold and sent to another continent on another ship.

Emily was the same. Her eyebrows were knit tightly together. “We don’t mind providing information. We are actually happy to help the investigation. But, isn’t there another way to get back to land? Right now, Louis and I are more comfortable with taking a helicopter.”
