You Hit My Heart by Kylie Stanford

Chapter 1710: Getting News in Advance

The shooting incident was a big deal, so Darrin proactively contacted the Police Headquarters while on the road.

After arriving at the Police Headquarters, they were met by an officer specially assigned to handle their case and make a record of the incident.

The officer's last name was Booth, and upon seeing Joyce, his first words were, "Are you the General? I've heard so much about you. Please have a seat inside. Mr. Gregory has already informed us to keep the record simple."

Joyce was taken aback. "Mr. Gregory? Karl?"

The internal information within the police department spread quickly. It had reached Karl's ears so soon, especially considering it was already late at night.

"Yes," the sergeant nodded.

“It's quite late, and it's just a minor matter. Do you really have to bother Mr. Gregory?" Darrin exclaimed in astonishment.

"Oh, no, that's not it. Mr. Gregory informed each substation a few days ago. If any matters concerning the General arise, each substation has been assigned an officer specifically for reception. After we finish recording, we will also inform Mr. Gregory," Officer Zhang explained. Joyce and Darrin exchanged glances.

Darrin coughed lightly. "So, Mr. Gregory is indeed Mr. Gregory. He plans everything so thoughtfully.” He had often heard people mention Karl's meticulousness and attention to detail, and now he had witnessed it firsthand. Even though Karl wasn't in Khebury, his jurisdiction was still in place.

Joyce rubbed her temples, realizing that Karl must have known about the shooting incident at the ice cream shop, which was why he made these arrangements. She didn't want to bother him with her own issues and wanted him to focus on taking care of Juanita. However, it seemed she had still managed to trouble him.

"Alright, let's finish the record as soon as possible. I want to get home early," Joyce said.

Joyce sat down in the VIP reception room.

The sergeant brought a laptop to record their statements and even made coffee for them.
