Chapter 568 Defending Oneself “I hate it when someone points a gun at me,” Donald muttered with a darkened expression as he stared at the gun before him. What the f*ck? How is he still so arrogant?

Matthew said in a deep voice, “I don’t give a f*ck whether you like it or not! Put your hands on the back of your head, get on your knees, and face the corner of the wall. Do it, or I’ll open fire!”

Donald, who was already in an extremely foul mood, steadied himself for retaliation. Suddenly, Wesley, who had gone outside to call for reinforcements, was sent flying backward.

A middle-aged police officer in a white shirt stormed inside with a huge scowl on his face. He was followed by a high-ranking police officer. “Chief Moreno? Why are you here?” Matthew asked.

He was still puzzled by the whole situation when Joseph Moreno gave him a tight slap. The latter told the high-ranking police officer behind him. “Confiscate his gun and take him to the interrogation room for questioning!”

Matthew massaged his cheek and said, “What’s the meaning of this, Chief Moreno? That fellow is brutal and dangerous. He’s assaulted the brigadier of Xemrich Special Brigade. I was trying to subdue him.” Joseph was furious when he heard that.

Donald resided in Pollerton. The six big shots of the main police stations in Yaleview had invited the police chiefs from the four main branches in Pollerton for a meeting. There was only one thing they wanted to address.

The police chiefs had been told to keep a record of Donald’s particulars. Even if Donald were to cause trouble in Pollerton in the future, the police officers should never arrest him.

In Yorksland, Pollerton was considered a second-tier city at most. Normally, the chiefs of these police stations would never receive phone calls from those big shots, let alone head to Yaleview and meet them in person.

It proved how influential Donald Campbell was, and Joseph simply could not afford to offend him. As soon as the four police chiefs had returned to Pollerton, they had tweaked the settings of the electronic system at their respective police stations.

If anything related to Donald appeared in the system, the four police chiefs would be informed about it immediately.

When Pierre brought Donald to this police station earlier, he had registered the latter’s name in the system.

As a result, Joseph knew Donald had been withheld at the police station within his jurisdiction.

He had been forced to leave his lover in bed as he rushed to the police station after putting on his pants. Fortunately, he had arrived on time.

Joseph regarded the idiot who had almost destroyed his career and said in a low voice, “You dared to point a gun at him after he assaulted a Special Brigade brigadier. What if he killed the Brigadier? Would you have shot him?”

Matthew covered his face. He did not know how to respond.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t I shoot to kill? Does this fellow have someone powerful to back him up?

Matthew could not figure it out, and neither would Joseph let him do so.

After Matthew was taken away, Joseph approached Donald immediately and said in a placating manner, “I’m sorry you had to go through all of this, Mr. Campbell. My subordinate was unruly, and he’s offended you.”

Donald was puzzled by Joseph’s attitude.

He regarded Joseph with a half-smile. “I don’t think I know you. Are you sure you didn’t mistake me for someone else?”

“You must be pulling my leg, Mr. Campbell. You’re such an extraordinary person. How could I mistake you for someone else?” I have your photo beside my bed, and I see your face every night. Even if you turn into a pile of ash, there’s no way I can’t recognize you.

“Well, I did assault someone. Aren’t you going to lock me up?”

Joseph’s heart skipped a beat when he glanced at Pierre, who was still lying on the floor.

This Campbell fellow is brutal indeed. I wonder if Pierre is still alive.

Despite his thoughts, Joseph said firmly, “We’ve already investigated. Pierre abused his own power to take you to our police station by force. He harbored ill intentions toward you. Luckily, you’re a skilled fighter, and you managed to retaliate and protect yourself. What you did was self-defense.”
