The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 22

Brandon picked up his coffee mug, intending to take a sip to calm his anger. "I'm not deaf. What's the good news?"

The young man, Sky North, caught his breath and said, "Ethan Rivers has been arrested."

The mug fell and shattered on the ground with crash, coffee spilling everywhere. However, Brandon seemed not to notice.

Sky nodded, saying excitedly, "Yes, I heard it downtown. The charges are embezzlement and bribery."

"What?"
