Chapter 518 Critical Delivery

Celeste had been ranting for a while, but Dean just sat there, silent, which only made her angrier.

Out of nowhere, she remembered her earlier meeting with Murray. She thought she was being smart by playing weak and compromising, thinking she had the upper hand, but to him, it was all just a joke.

And it was the same with Michael, who was younger than her.

Celeste felt her dignity was being stomped on. Her face twisted with rage, and she didn't care about her image in front of the cops anymore. Her anger made her lose it.

"Dean, have you lost your mind? You make Archibald and me clean up all your messes for a woman like that!"

"Have you said enough?" Dean finally looked up, his voice shaky, and it seemed like tears were in his eyes.

The nearby cop had been holding back for a while. Technically, since Deputy Chief Murray had personally arranged for Dean to be visited, the officer was just supposed to watch and not intervene.

But Celeste's relentless scolding was clearly not good for the prisoner's state of mind.

Looking at Dean's lifeless posture, the officer decided to speak up. "Ma'am, please be mindful of the time. It's very late, and you shouldn't waste the limited time on accusations.

"Your visit is already against the rules. It's only because our deputy chief is kind that you're allowed here. Don't push it too far and make things unpleasant for everyone."

But Celeste, in her fury, didn't hear a word.

"What? Even you want to lecture me?" Celeste's voice dripped with disdain. She was so caught up in her rant that she didn't care about the officer's authority. "Is everyone allowed to push me around now?

"Your deputy chief is a reasonable man. We used to be very close. It's only natural that I can break the rules. What can you do about it? I'm going to criticize you all for abusing your power!"

Celeste's voice grew louder, almost to the point of screaming.
