Sending them to prison for a few days was just the beginning; there were harsher consequences waiting for them.
Quentin was not a soft-hearted person; if the Pittman family had crossed the line, they would have to pay the price!
“Where to now, sir?”
“The hospital.” Quentin closed his eyes again. “I’m going to take care of Charlotte.”
—
The Pittman mansion.
Nikolas rushed back to the Pittman mansion excitedly.
“Grandpa, Dad, I did it!”
“That guy, he got caught by Captain Keegan! He’s finished now!”
Excitement and ruthlessness flashed in Nikolas’ eyes.
“Really?”
Georgia, Lukas, and others were all excited. Had this guy finally met his punishment?
“Good! Good!”
Russell stood up excitedly. He snorted proudly, “This brat has finally paid the price. This is the consequence of offending my Pittman family!”
Russell remembered Quentin’s slap vividly. When had he, Russell, ever endured such humiliation in all his life? He couldn’t swallow this pride!
Maverick also smiled, “Dad, now you can rest assured. With Captain Keegan looking after that kid inside, he must be having a hard time.”
Upon hearing this, everyone from the Pittman family present smiled at each other, releasing a sigh of relief!
“Master, the constable’s men have arrived, and Inspector Wade is here in person.” Suddenly, a servant walked into the hall in a hurry and reported.
The constable’s men had arrived?
Everyone from the Pittman family was stunned, and Inspector Wade was here in person?
What was going on!
With the Pittman family’s status, it was like a dream come true to see someone of Wade’s caliber. Why would this big shot come to the Pittman family in person today?
“Quick-”
“Please come in-”
Russell immediately stood up, wanting to go out to meet Wade. However, he was met by the sight of Wade, wearing a dignified black uniform, walking in with his hands behind his back.
“Inspector Wade!”
Russell was extremely respectful and greeted him the moment he approached.
“What brings you here? If there is anything my Pittman family can do to help, we will not hesitate.”
Wade looked at his obsequious demeanor and smiled slightly. “Master of the Pittman family, you are very kind. However, this time, there is indeed a matter that troubles the Pittman family and you.”
“Oh? Inspector Wade, please speak.” Russell was excited. If this incident could build a relationship between the Pittman family and Wade, their status would rise even higher!
“Someone reported that the Pittman family used vigilante justice and unlawfully imprisoned someone. Today, I came to ask all of you to come to the constabulary for questioning.”
“If you cooperate, wouldn’t that be a great help to me?”
Wade smiled, but in that moment, the expressions of all the people, including Russell, stiffened!
Russell went pale, “Inspector Wade, there must be a misunderstanding. We-”
“I’m sorry, there is no misunderstanding! Take all of them away- ” He ordered, “All those involved, take them back for questioning!”
The people of the Pittman family were dumbfounded. How did this happen? How did they get into trouble?
Russell shivered, “Inspector Wade, our relationship with Captain Keegan is good. Can’t you reconsider?”
“Captain Keegan has confessed his crimes. He’s waiting for you inside.” Wade said calmly. “Don’t hold onto such hopes.”
Russell was instantly stunned.
This…
Everything was happening too suddenly, and he couldn’t react in time!
Could it be that this time, they were truly facing imprisonment? A strong feeling of despair surged in his heart…
Russell forced a smile, “Inspector Wade, can you tell me who we have offended?”
“Someone the Pittman family can’t afford to provoke. With just a word from him, he can destroy the Pittman family.” Wade said calmly. “What you’ve done to Miss Pittman has displeased him.”
“This is your fate.”
Charlotte?
Someone standing up for her?
And it was a figure capable of destroying the Pittman family!
Russell, Maverick, Nikolas, and others were all puzzled.
Who could it be? They couldn’t think of anyone who fit that description no matter how hard they tried!
