Chapter 758: I’m Here to Take Him

Police Captain Frank Gill kept a stern face as he listened to the conversation come to a halt. Then, he spoke firmly.

"We've already understood the situation. If the investigation yields results, we'll notify you immediately. Rest assured, we won't let any criminal go unpunished." "My father-in-law is not a criminal!"

Elsa, unable to hold back any longer, broke free from Tina's grasp and stormed forward.

Frank's eyes flickered with a hint of surprise when he saw her. "Elsa? Why are you here? Did my brother tell you about this?"

Tina and Jared exchanged a quick glance.

Brother?

Austin didn't have a brother. Who was this person, and why would he say that?

Elsa hadn't expected to see someone familiar. The anger on her face paused briefly before returning in full force.

Her cold gaze landed on Frank, and she let out a mocking laugh. "So it's you. I didn't expect this. After all these years, you've climbed to the rank of captain. It seems the Bailey family really does trust their son-in-law." Frank frowned and replied coldly, "My career has nothing to do with my brother-in-law."

"Whether it does or not is irrelevant to me," Elsa snapped. Her voice was icy. "From the moment your Gill family helped destroy the Dyer family, we've been sworn enemies!"

She paused, suppressing the hatred in her tone. "And I'm not here for a reunion. My father-in-law is innocent. Pippa Ogden's suicide has nothing to do with him!"

Frank's eyes flickered briefly. He opened his mouth, wanting to clarify that he wasn't in charge of the case, but before he could speak, Mrs. Ogden stepped forward with a sharp glare.

"You say it has nothing to do with him? Just because you're his daughter-in-law, you think you can cover for him? Do you think we'd falsely accuse him for no reason? That old scumbag! If it weren't for the fact that Pippa wasn't seriously harmed back then, I would've sent him to prison years ago!"

Mrs. Ogden's voice cracked as she cried bitterly. "My daughter was such a bright girl. She was about to graduate from college this year. If it weren't for what happened back then, if it weren't for that old man giving her depression, how could she have taken her own life?"
