Chapter 851

Some folks prefer to stay under the radar, while others are terrified of not being noticed.

Molly wished she could just disappear, but little Henry from the Cedillo family was the opposite; he was desperate for his uncle's attention. Tossing aside his lollipop, he perked up when he saw his uncle come home in uniform, eagerly raising his arms for a hug. For a moment, Molly felt a pang of betrayal. She had doted on Henry so much, and now here he was, practically bouncing with excitement over his uncle as if she barely existed!

But then, a twist!

This time, the uncle, who usually showered affection on his nephew, didn't go in for the usual hug. Instead, he turned his gaze towards his wife and walked over.

He noticed everyone else in the squad was dressed casually, except for one newbie cop who was dressed to the nines in his uniform. "So, you must be the boss around here," he remarked, blocking Chad's path.

Officer Chad, with a chill in his voice, asked, "...What's going on?"

He needed to find out what his little troublemaker-his dear wife had gotten into this time!

The man launched into his story, just as he had before, harping on about how he had to slam his brakes on the freeway, causing a rear-end collision for which the car behind was fully blamed, and how he forked out over ten grand in repairs. He was hoping for a repeat of that outcome.

He felt confident because, as he put it, not signaling before lane changes is a common mistake for seasoned drivers, not just him. He claimed it wasn't his fault at all.

Even if it were a mistake, it was just a minor penalty, something he could brush off easily.

Having experienced something similar before, he was bold enough to start a fuss.

"...And all your colleagues are siding with her just because they know her. I'm going to file a complaint for unfair treatment," he said, clearly worked up.

The woman with him chimed in, "Yeah, we're filing a complaint."

Chad turned his eyes to Molly.

Everyone in the room understood the situation, but no one spoke up.
