“Your alibi would be more believable if I also gave my statement.


    ”


    She looked at Bryon, then at the car keys in his hand.


    “Believable.


    Really? With those stolen car keys?”


    Bryan’s eyes followed her gaze and said, “I didn’t steal it.


    I was just borrowing it.


    I’ll return the carter.


    ”


    His shamelessness was nothing new.


    With a snort, she turned, continuing her way back to the Compton family’s main vi.

    As soon as she entered the living room, Hannah was surrounded by her men.


    A policeman also walked up to her.


    “Miss Moore, we have received a report about you.


    You have toe with us.


    ”


    Trent and Keith stubbornly came to her defense.


    “We’ve already told you.


    It has nothing to do with our sister! You’re not taking her anywhere!”


    Dotson, Kite, and several others blocked them, forming a wall around Hannah.


    The unmistakable tension made the policeman’s expression harden.


    It would be impossible to take Hannah away by force when she had her men protecting her like guard dogs, not to mention the fact that she was a member of the prestigious Compton family in Caditown.


    Hannah scanned the crowd, her eyes finding Wace, who was sitting on the sofa.


    His face was set in an unreadable expression, not giving anything away.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    He met Hannah’s gaze, then said to his sons, “You’re getting in the way of the police investigation.


    ”


    His voice was so dignified that the two men who had all but bared their teeth at the policemen quieted down.


    Wace stood up and walked towards Hannah.


    “Where have you been?”


    “I had juste back from the Bloody Gang,” she answered just as seriously.


    A frown creased Wace’s forehead.


    “And what did you go there for?”


    Looking a little aggrieved, Hannah said, “It’s not like I wanted to go.


    Amelie wanted to see me, so I went to the police station today.


    On my way back, I noticed that several cars were tailing me.


    I tried to get them off my trail, but I found myself in an alley and the next thing I knew, two cars blocked my way.


    Then these men holding sticks started surrounding me, forcing me out of the car and dering that they were members of the Bloody Gang.


    ”


    As she recounted the events, she nced at Bryson and said, “Mr.


    Mitchell happened toe across us.


    He wanted to help, but unfortunately, we were caught and taken to the gang’s hideout.


    We somehow managed to escape and drove back here.


    ”


    Bryson offered a serious nod in confirmation of her words.


    “It’s true.


    ”


    Then, he raised the car keys in his hand.


    “It was a remote area, so I had to borrow one of their cars to drive back.


    These are the keys.


    ”


    The policeman next to him took the car keys from his hand, watching Bryson carefully as he put the car keys away.


    “If that’s the case, I’m sure you two would have no problem cooperating anding with us.


    Right, Mr.


    Mitchell and Miss Moore?”


    Trent shouted at Wace anxiously, “Dad!”


    One word from Wace and the police would scram like rats.


    Wace looked at Hannah.


    “Hannah, the leader of the Bloody Gang is dead, and the police are asking for your cooperation with the investigation.


    I’ll let you decide.


    If you don’t want to go with them, you can refuse.
