Chapter 759: Ma’am, Stop Talking

"Dad!"

"Mr. Dyer!"

Four voices rang out at the same time.

Hannah let out a faint sound from her throat, her half-closed eyes struggling to open wider. Her condition was no better than Joseph Dyers'. The fact that she had held on for this long was already a miracle. But now, seeing her husband collapse, the old woman couldn't catch her breath. Her legs gave out, and she too began to fall.

Fortunately, Jared and Tina moved quickly, catching both elders before they hit the ground.

If they hadn't, the slippery floors of the police station would have surely caused the elderly couple to break their bones.

Elsa's eyes were bloodshot, her dry tears clinging painfully to the corners of her eyes. Her voice trembled with rage.

"Frank Gill! My in-laws haven't even been convicted of anything, and now you're trying to make them die without a chance to defend themselves?!"

Frank Gill was just as shocked.

He hadn't been the one to detain them. He had only checked on them during a shift change. At that time, the elderly couple had been stable, though visibly nervous. They had shown no signs of being in such a dire state. Now, this? How had things deteriorated so quickly?

His sharp, hawk-like eyes turned to a junior officer standing nearby, his gaze filled with accusation.

"What's going on here?!"

"I-I don't know!" the officer stammered, his body trembling.

Though he usually followed the deputy captain's orders, everyone in the station knew how upright and unyielding Captain Gill was. If the captain found out he had deliberately turned the air conditioning down to freezing levels, his career at the station would be over.

The junior officer cast a furtive glance at Kelly, hoping for guidance. But to his dismay, Kelly had been staring at Jared ever since the man arrived, her makeup-perfect eyes filled with blatant admiration.

The officer cursed internally. *Seriously? Now's the time for you to swoon over someone?*
