Chapter 955

Author: Love Berries
Desmond was so shaken by the words, he collapsed right onto the floor.

He hadn’t expected things to spiral this far.

“Mr. Carter, please, let me explain. I really was keeping an eye on things.”

He scrambled forward on his knees, clutching at Lucas’ pant leg, begging him to just look at him.

But Lucas let out a cold snort and kicked him away without hesitation.

“You’d better have a damn good explanation for all this.”

Lucas narrowed his eyes, voice dangerously low. “Or else…”

Desmond didn’t need to hear the rest to understand.

“Or else” meant being sent to the Outlands.

That lawless place where no authority reached—where it didn’t matter who he was or what he'd done, no one would come looking for him.

No identity, backing, and protection. If he ended up there, your fate was sealed.

Desmond took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to focus.

He knew what he had to do now.

Clutching the documents, he started walking Lucas through every detail, trying to retrace his steps.

    One wrong step, and he’d walk straight into their trap.These business types were just that cunning.That was why he always tried to steer clear of them whenever he could.But in this line of work, avoiding contact altogether was impossible.So, the Ravenshore chief did his best to keep a low profile.After all, who knew what those people were really thinking?In his mind, not a single one of those corporate elites could be trusted.That was the conclusion he’d quietly come to.If it weren’t for Tessa and Julian, he would’ve never gotten involved.This whole mess had been entirely unexpected.The chief let out a long sigh, resigning himself to the situation—might as well deal with it since it was already in front of him.After all, he’d have to face these types sooner or later.Might as well treat it as practice.Taking a deep breath, he finally dialed Grace’s number.Unlike Albert, she didn’t pick up right away.The phone rang for quite a while, only connecting just before the call wo

    The chief called both families.On Julian’s side, his father was completely stunned when he got the call from Ravenshore Station. At first, he was confused, then furious.“What?”He shot up from his seat, his tone sharp and angry. “They’ve already been sent to Ravenshore?”The chief was caught off guard by his reaction, not quite sure how to respond.He stammered, “Y-yes… they’ve already been transferred over. They’re currently being held at our station.”Albert’s eyes flared. “Then why didn’t anyone inform me?”He’d already sent people to Millford. They were just about to locate the police station over there.And now what? They were back in Ravenshore Station?Albert was seething. What was this supposed to mean?Were they playing games with him?The fire in his chest was impossible to suppress.And to top it off, bringing them back to Ravenshore Station meant the scandal would be right on his doorstep.Now the whole city would know—he’d be a walking joke.Anyone who wanted to laugh

    “That’s good to hear.”The Millford chief was clearly pleased.He’d been waiting for that exact response, and it had come sooner than expected.The Ravenshore chief clearly understood how things worked.He played along perfectly.That alone earned some satisfaction from the Millford side.“Alright then, let’s leave it at that. I’ll hang up now.”Once they ended the call, the Ravenshore chief looked through the documents that had just come in.A sense of relief settled over him.Then, as soon as he saw Tessa’s name, his entire body stiffened.He suddenly shot to his feet. “That name… it’s so familiar.”He flipped rapidly through the files until he found it—Aurora Walton.Newly appointed general manager of Walton Corporation. She was young and accomplished.The chief sank back into his chair, everything starting to fall into place.Now it all made sense.He finally knew who these two really were.Tessa and Julian were engaged.And now, these two had tried to harm Aurora.If that got out

    Tessa was already starting to miss her plush bed at home and the comfort of being waited on by staff.Now, all she had were two worn-out blankets, three concrete walls, one iron door, and a half-deranged Julian.For the first time, Tessa truly felt what it meant to live in misery.But there was nothing she could do.All her belongings had been confiscated by the officers.Even if she wanted to make a phone call, she had no way to do it.Meanwhile, the Ravenshore Police Department was still trying to contact the families of both Tessa and Julian.They’d been held for quite some time, and yet not a single person had come to claim them.That, too, puzzled the officers.By all accounts, Julian might’ve seemed unstable, but from the way he dressed, it was clear he came from money.So how had he ended up like this?And Tessa—there was something about her.Her entire demeanor made it obvious she wasn’t just anyone.Some of the officers even felt her face looked vaguely familiar.But no one co

    "Fine. Then go dig into it quietly. Find out exactly what Joseph Hunt did."Lucas narrowed his eyes. That kind of nerve, to lay a hand on someone belonging to him.The man clearly had a death wish."Also…"Desmond had just turned to leave when he heard the rest."You may be allowed to make up for it, but you did mess up. Are you willing to accept punishment?"Lucas’ voice was cool but firm.Desmond nodded. "I accept. I know I’m at fault."Lucas gave a slight nod. "Good. Then forfeit half a year’s salary."Not demoting him was already the greatest mercy he could offer.Desmond looked up sharply, eyes misting over.He never expected that after making such a serious mistake, Lucas would let it slide without saying much.It really did seem like he’d changed.Desmond gave a sincere reply, then turned and hurried out to handle what Lucas had just instructed.Lucas watched the door close, then raised his hand to rub his temples before turning his attention back to the files on his desk.Over
