Arrest You
Cedrick narrowed his eyes as rage bubbled in his heart.
However, when he saw Craig coming forward to greet him, he put on a mocking expression.
“Why are you here so early in the morning, Mr. Jenson?” With a smile, Craig swiftly arrived before
Cedrick and nodded politely.
Cedrick glanced at Charles and uttered casually, “Nico received a tip. Apparently, Charles illegally
crossed the national border during the past year. I’ve decided to apprehend him personally as it’s rare
to have evidence of his wrongdoing.”
Craig’s smile froze slightly. “Illegally crossing the national border? That sounds like an international
case, Mr. Jenson. Shouldn’t you be investigating the matter with foreign institutions?”
“You’re right. However, Charles and I are old friends. It’s been a while since we met, so I’ll bring him to
the secret interrogation room first to grill him. It’ll be the perfect warmup for him.”
The edges of Craig’s lips curved upward again. “You’re the boss of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
You don’t need to tell me who you plan to question.”
Cedrick glanced at Craig indifferently. “You’re the leader of the Newton family and Charles’ older
brother, so I thought I should let you know.”
“Sure.” Craig lowered his head respectfully.
Without delay, Cedrick sauntered toward Charles, who was kneeling unsteadily. Tutting, he remarked,
“What did he do wrong? Why is he already beaten up before I interrogate him?”
Craig’s expression remained unchanged. “He broke the family rules, so I punished him. I whipped him
at few times and forced him to kneel here briefly. It won’t kill him.”
Silently, Cedrick approached Charles with his hands in his pockets.
Charles was reaching his limit as he aimed his blurry vision at Cedrick before looking at Craig.
Glowering, he spoke in a guilty tone. “What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Jenson?”
Cedrick didn’t say a word while Nico explained, “You committed a felony by illegally crossing the
national border. Let’s go. We’ll bring you to the interrogation room you’re most familiar with.”
Charles’ pale countenance shifted slightly as a smirk formed on his face. “You accepted my apology in
front of Gwen last night, Cedrick. Yet, you came to arrest me the next morning. What a two-faced
b*stard
you are.”
Rage swirled in Cedrick’s eyes as he frowned at Charles.
-Craig observed the duo’s expressions at the side quietly.
Charles continued to mock, “If Gwen learns you’re using an official excuse to seek revenge against me,
what do you think she’ll do?”
Scowling, Cedrick kicked Charles’ clean left shoulder. “I shall reward your insult by using all the tools in
the interrogation room on you tonight.”
Groaning in pain, Charles collapsed on the ground, unable to sit up.
Cedrick turned his sight away coldly. “Bring him away, Nico.”
In response, Nico gestured at a few subordinates to carry Charles away.
“Wait,” stated Craig.
#5 Bonus
Knitting his eyebrows, Cedrick glared at him coldly. He disliked people interrupting his official business.
Smiling ingratiatingly, Craig explained, “In addition to the country’s laws, he violated the Newton
family’s rules, too. Can you apprehend him at noon instead so I can interrogate him for a few more
hours?”
Cedrick’s expression darkened further.
Nico hastily replied, “You know Mr. Jenson rarely apprehends felons personally, Mr. Craig. Yet, you’re
asking him to leave empty-handed before returning here at noon.”
Grinning politely, Craig responded, “It’s my fault for being inconsiderate. How about this? You’re free to
drink tea in the living room while I settle the Newton family’s crucial matter in half an hour, Mr. Jenson.
Once I’ve gotten what I want from Charles, you’re free to take him away.”
Nico and Cedrick went silent in unison. No doubt Craig’s suspicious of our arrival. If we reject him
again, he’ll know something’s up.
A stalemate ensued. Meanwhile, Charles, who was lying weakly on the ground, almost trembled.
reflexively.
Half an hour… With that tight deadline, Craig will definitely employ the most ruthless methods to torture
me. I’m almost at my limit, and there’s no telling if I can prevent myself from spilling the truth while
losing consciousness. When his train of thought ended there, he endured the pain and crawled toward
Craig.
Then, he clutched his brother’s pants and pleaded, “You must believe me, Craig. I didn’t steal Karl’s
keys or anything from the top floor. I really didn’t…”
Craig’s expression shifted slightly as he glanced at Cedrick.
Cedrick was also looking at him, though inquisitively. “What unknown secret is hiding on the top floor? I
can’t believe you forbid your family from entering a section of the house. What are you doing, Craig?”
Once more, Craig’s expression shifted slightly before he kicked Charles forcefully.
The kick was much stronger than Cedrick’s. Charles rolled on the pebbled path multiple times, causing
immense pain in his chest.
Upon stopping, he vomited a mouthful of blood and entered a half-conscious state.
“Don’t listen to his nonsense, Mr. Jenson. There’s nothing important on the top floor. He stole
something precious from my room, which is why I was punishing him. The Newton family hates theft
among family members, you see,” explained Craig.
Calmly, Cedrick replied, “Mhm. Stealing should be punished. Although, I think your punishment is too
light. If it were me, I would’ve chopped off his hands instead of whipping him.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Nico.
Nico understood his order and personally lifted Charles.
To his surprise, Charles bit him after sitting up.
“Are you a dog?” Wincing. Nico slapped Charles’ countenance.
After Charles released Nico’s hand, the latter pointed at the former furiously and ordered, “How dare
you bite me in front of Mr. Jenson and Mr. Craig! Consider your sins doubled! Do you still think you’re
the leader of the Central Intelligence Agency? Quick, I want someone to cuff and take him away!”
His subordinates swiftly and skillfully put electronic handcuffs on Charles.
Then, they immediately dragged the half-conscious Charles away by his arms.
Before Craig could stop them, Charles had already beer stuffed into a vehicle violently. “Mr. Jenson,
don’t you think that’s-”
Patting Craig’s shoulder, Cedrick put on a fake smile. “I’ll help you interrogate him about the object he
stole from you, too. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely break his limbs. Don’t say I’m not looking after my deputy
director.”
Craig had no choice but to go along with it. “Of course not, Mr. Jenson. You’re a magnanimous man
who cares dearly about his subordinates.”
“I’m glad you’re aware of that.” Cedrick turned his cold gaze away and waved his hand.
Promptly, Nico led the soldiers out of the Newton residence.
Before Cedrick left, he turned his head back and reminded cautiously, “Committing a crime isn’t as
heinous as continuing with the crime down that path. I hope the person the next time I’m here to arrest
won’t be you, Craig.”
The expression on Craig’s countenance shifted slightly. “Don’t worry. I do things righteously, Mr.
Jenson. I’m not that stupid to commit a crime knowingly.”
Disappointment swirled in Cedrick’s eyes as he simply replied, “Good.”
