Chapter 816: Tina’s Hidden Intentions

At the same time, in the Pace family residence.

When Ruud returned home, the livestream was nearing its end.

Leo, Gabe, and Armel were seated at the computer, still deeply engrossed in a discussion about what they had just watched.

By the time Ruud stepped into the study, the desktop computer was already turned off, and all he caught was a snippet of their conversation: "That Reed family girl has so many tricks up her sleeve. What she did was completely against the rules."

Ruud raised an eyebrow. "Who are you talking about?"

Hearing his voice, all but Leo stood up.

"Ruud, you're back. We were just talking about the case Chief Reed handled," Gabe explained.

"Tina?"

The mention of "Reed" immediately brought her to Ruud's mind. His brow furrowed instinctively. "Since when can you all watch cases being handled by the Security Department?"

"No, no, this isn't one of their internal cases."

Gabe waved his hand to deny it. "It's an old case from years back-a top teacher at Ashbury High School was falsely accused of assault. The incident caused a big uproar back then. Today, Tina worked to overturn the verdict." "Ruud, you don't know-the turn of events was absolutely mind-blowing!"

Five years ago, Gabe and Armel had been following Ruud in the military and were unaware of what had happened outside. They only watched today because Leo wanted to, and they stuck around for a bit, which turned into ten minutes, then another ten. By the time the livestream ended, all three were still processing what they'd witnessed.
