Chapter 694
Of course, a gun would be an even greater threat to Emmanuel.
“Did Magnus tell you to do this?” Emmanuel was no fool. He immediately
smiled in disdain as he posed the question.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m just following protocol.” Deon
aimed the muzzle at Emmanuel’s temple. “Hurry and confess your crimes.
You’ll suffer less, and we can wrap up the case quickly.”
Emmanuel was still amused. “Why do you force me to admit to killing just
Harvey? What about Claudette?” He was wondering if Deon knew that
Magnus had killed Claudette.

Unexpectedly, Deon told him a piece of surprising news, “We still haven’t
found Ms. Lenoir’s body, so we cannot have a verdict at the moment.”
What? They still haven’t found her? Emmanuel was slightly stunned. It’s been
two days, so why haven’t they found her?
Meanwhile, Deon’s subordinates had already walked up to either side of
Emmanuel. One grabbed his hand while another forced him to put his
fingerprint on the paper. The confession was already prepared beforehand!
Of course, Emmanuel could not just go along with that. With his shoulder, he
rammed into the guy grabbing his hand, sending the latter flying. Before the
other subordinate could react, Emmanuel had already kicked him away.
“You piece of sh*t!” Deon registered the turn of events and fired a shot, just
like he had threatened to.
Bang!
The gunshot was ear–piercing. Ashton, who was at the door, was startled as
well. Then, she lightly gritted her teeth. Although she wanted to beat
Emmanuel up, that was only because he spouted nonsense and slandered
Magnus!
However, she never truly wanted to kill Emmanuel. Has Deon lost his mind?!
Just when she was about to barge in, another man arrived at the room
alone. “Y–You’re… Mr. Payne!” When she recognized the person, she was
dumbfounded initially but quickly overcome with elation.
She jogged over to Sage happily, intending to give him a passionate
embrace. Ever since she was young, she looked down on other men, but
there were two men she idolized–one was the wise and outstanding Mr.
Magnus, while the other was her instructor when she was still in the military
unit, the Jade Beast, Sage Payne!
He was also the strongest man she had ever met. She was a woman who
loved to fight, so she idolized Sage a little bit more.
“Ash? Is that you?” His contours and features were well–defined. He was a
handsome man who rarely smiled, but his only physical flaw was a long scar
that almost ran across his entire face, a result of his many battles.
At that moment, he reached out and declined Ashton’s embrace. She did not
feel awkward and seemed to have turned into a completely different person
from when she faced Emmanuel moments ago, smiling as she said, “Yes, it’s
me, Mr. Payne! I heard you’ll be assuming the position of captain in
Yeringham, so I applied for a transfer to Yeringham too. Ldid all this just so
that I can keep serving you!”
Sage nodded but did not respond to the topic. Instead, he asked
straightforwardly, “Are they carrying out interrogations for Ms. Lenoir’s case in
there?”
“Yes, we’ve already arrested the murderer, Emmanuel Lowe!” She nodded as
she confirmed.
When Sage heard Emmanuel’s name, his expression turned a little weird as
he walked over and opened the metal door. Realizing that the door was
locked from within, he did not knock on it and simply punted it open.
Bang!
The metal door instantly gave way.
Ashton adored Sage even more now. When she saw him kicking down a
metal door, she knew then that he was as powerful and domineering as he
had always been. If Emmanuel still dares to go against us, he will be dead
meat!
