Chapter 278: Mr. Reed, Being Too Clever is No Fun

Mack panicked the moment he heard the suggestion. "No! I'm not going!" His last escapade, broadcasted live as he performed a handstand defecation, had already landed him in the police station once. Another arrest would be his second disgrace. Moreover, after his last arrest, his father had brought home Lysander, his illegitimate brother. If Mack were to be arrested again, he feared his father might forsake him for Lysander. How could that illegitimate son be worthy? The police wouldn't just let him refuse arrest. Instantly, two officers grabbed Mack. Unexpectedly, Mack broke free with all his might and, with eyes blazing, charged at Tina, yelling, "You wench, it's all your fault! If I can't be happy, neither will you! We'll go to hell together!" Just as he lunged, Jared Farrell, who had been shielding Tina, swiftly stepped aside. Tina kicked out, sending Mack sprawling to the floor.

As the police moved to restrain him, Mack spotted a fruit knife on a nearby table. He lunged for it and stabbed at Tina. Tina stood firm, not moving an inch.

Hayden Cohen panicked and moved to intervene, but Jared sharply commanded, "Stay back!" Before Hayden could react, Tina dodged swiftly and struck Mack with rapid, seemingly gentle but powerful punches. Hayden, standing close, could hear the sound of Mack's bones cracking. Stunned, he began to understand the situation.

Tina kicked Mack to the ground, picked up a wet wipe from the table, and casually wiped her hands. Looking up at the law enforcement officers, she asked, "That was self-defense, right?" The officers, taken aback by the prowess of such a beautiful woman, nodded. "Yes, he pulled a knife on you. It counts as self-defense."

With a slight smile, Tina said, "Then I'd appreciate it if you take him in for questioning. I'll submit evidence that he drugged me." After a pause, she added coldly, "I won't settle this out of court."
