"What were you doing with the rope just now?" the female cop asked again.
Walter picked up the rope. "This? It''s a dog leash. I''m nning to get two dogs to keep Peanutpany. Got a problem with that?"
The two cops exchanged a look, clearly not buying Walter''s story. Who uses a rope like that for dogs?
Walter said, "You two got nothing better to do? Coming to my ce every day?"
"We were just passing by. Since you''re taking the kid to buy clothes, go ahead," the female cop said.
They stepped aside, watching Walter, waiting to see him leave with the kid.
Under their watchful eyes, Walter cheerfully put Peanut in the front seat, buckled him up, and drove off. The two cops exchanged another look.
They weren''t just there to see if Walter was mistreating the kid; that was just an excuse.
Half a month ago, there was a big operation busting drug dens across the country, nabbing a bunch of leaders.
But the mastermind was still out there, and Walter was a prime suspect. They''d been working hard to gather evidence.
Walter was super cautious; they hadn''t caught him doing anything shady or even gotten close. The Freya incident had caught the higher-ups'' attention, so they sent officers to use this as a pretext to get close to Walter. The female cop said, "With using over so often, won''t he get suspicious?"
"What are you scared of? Even if we don''te, he knows someone''s investigating him. He''ll still be on guard. Let''s just keep it this way for now," the male cop said.
"True," the female cop nodded.
Walter rubbed his temples, ncing at Peanut.
He floored the gas pedal, and the car shot forward like a rocket, scaring Peanut into gripping the seatbelt tightly.
Walter did take Peanut to the mall to buy clothes. But he just dropped Peanut off at the kids'' clothing store and sat nearby ying on his phone.
He called Quinn.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
Quinn was a bit surprised. Walter calling her out of the blue couldn''t be good.
She answered, "What do you want?"
Walter chuckled. "Not bad, you''ve learned to use others to do your dirty work."
Quinn was taken aback. "What are you talking about?"
"The Kennedy Group is currently supported by its overseaspanies. Because of the cross-border nature, the overseaspanies haven''t been too affected. If you want topletely destroy Getty, start with the overseaspanies," Walter said.
Quinn got it now. Getty had approached Walter.
Walter had figured out what she did, but instead of taking action himself, he gave her a suggestion to handle it herself.
Walter continued, "I admire your growth, but don''t use these tactics on me next time. I won''t be happy."
Quinn''s lips twitched. What kind of growth was this? It was useless.
"I just told her the truth," Quinn said, trying to defend herself.
Walterughed. "If I were you, I would definitely go to Freya. Her son is her weak spot. As long as you promise to take care of her son and get him treatment, she''ll know what to do." "This is much simpler than having Gettye to me," Walter added.
Quinn''s expression changed. Walter''s methods were always so ruthless.
If she told Freya this, Freya would see it as a transaction. Without even needing to exin, she would go all out to kill Getty.
