Chapter 608 Two Choices

Cedrick narrowed his eyes as he pondered in silence.

Looking up warily, the officer asked softly, “Mr. Jenson, do you want us to bring Mr. Yael here, or do you want to see him alone in his cell?”

Instead of answering that question, Cedrick said, “Got it. You’re dismissed.”

The officer was stunned.

Huh? Does he want to see Mr. Yael or not? Since he didn’t answer me, I suppose he doesn’t want to?

“All right. I’ll be taking my leave, Mr Jenson.”

Once the officer was gone, Cedrick turned his attention to the document Nico had brought him.

It was a newspaper clipping from twenty years ago that had a black-and-white picture of a car accident attached.

A luxury sedan was crushed and ignited in flames. Given the mangled condition of the vehicle that was supposed to be built like a tank, one could imagine the gruesome fate of its occupants.

The news only mentioned the victim’s car. What about the one driven by the perpetrator? Was it a lorry? A bus? Or an ordinary sedan? There’s no way an ordinary car can deal such damage to Mom and Dad’s luxury car. Could it be another luxury car that belongs to someone powerful in Chanaea?

Nevertheless, everything was speculation on his part, for he had no evidence to prove it.

He decided to see Yael upon the latter’s request. Yet he wanted to let Yael wait for an hour so that the latter wouldn’t get carried away with thinking that he was at his mercy.

At that moment, Yael was leaning against the prison bars of his cell as he waited for Cedrick’s arrival. However, instead of Cedrick, the one who returned was the officer who helped convey his message.

Stunned by the sight. Yael grabbed the officer’s arm. “Where’s Cedrick?”

“He has no time and has a lot of work to do. He didn’t say that he’ll see you.”

Yael’s brows furrowed in disbelief. “How could he not come? Does he not want to know the truth?”
