Cast From Law Abiding Citizen Novels & Stories

Make sure nothing could be traced back to me? That didn’t sound noble at all. He caught my expression and gave a small, amused snort. “Stop giving me that look,” he said. “No leader survives by being perfectly pure. A nation this big… it doesn’t run on innocence. Laws work on people who choose to obey them. But for the ones who don’t?” He shrugged lightly. … We learn to deal with them differently.”

Records can't be falsified. 'I prefer to be as law-abiding as possible.' The system sneered. Agatha felt angry and refuted,

"Arista, right? You were brave—and very smart. This case was cracked thanks to the leads and evidence you provided." I nodded, then turned toward the body camera of an officer collecting evidence and delivered my final statement. "In a society governed by the rule of law, everyone is equal. Please do not test the law with your own body. "And one more thing—I've proven through personal experience that garlic cannot exorcise demons." A faint, grim smile touched my lips. "But the law can." … My adoptive mother suddenly rushed out from a corner of the police station lobby and blocked my path.

Danny said with a look of disdain, “Every penny of our family’s money is money that my mother earned through her hard work. How can it become illegal income when you mention it?!” The police officer frowned and asked him, “Don’t you have any understanding of the law?” Danny immediately said loudly, “What don’t I understand? I’m a law-abiding citizen! I don’t gamble, cheat, steal, or rob! So, why are you saying that I’m breaking the law?!” The police officer knew that he would not be able to communicate with Danny, so he said to his subordinates, “Take him away! Also, go in and see if Elias Yorker and Freddie Obery are here as well. If they are, bring them back for interrogation!”

What the hell was going on? Looking at their puzzled expressions, Lamar added, “Simply put, I’ve given the situation a proper re-evaluation… and after the explanation given by your parents and the urges of the people, I’ve concluded that though it’s wrong to break the law, your cases are exceptions. For one, Sir Ian only did all that for his sister’s safety, and even though Jenna is still a criminal, it’s undeniable that she’s turned a new leaf. Young Master Burton himself did all this for his wife.” “With all that said, you’re free to go, though… Be sure to explain things properly to the public. Best of luck,” concluded Lamar as he walked off, leaving the reporters extremely excited!

I take my last chance, gripping the words like a lifeline, every thought focused on keeping both myself and my baby safe. The officers exchange quick, uncertain glances. My eyes snap between their badges, as I see the hesitation, the tiny cracks in their words. A flicker of doubt crosses their eyes, my plan is working. I was raised by people who know how to bend the law until it bends for them. I’ve seen case after case pile up against us, yet somehow we always slipped through untouched. And Adrian… with his law degree and his obsession with scenarios like this, he loved explaining every loophole.

"What's going on?" A tall, strikingly handsome man walked over. If I hadn't known for sure this was a human town, I would've thought he was an Alpha from some wolf pack. He carried an aura that made people instinctively want to submit. "Boss," the receptionist greeted him before quickly explaining. The man's sharp gaze swept over me, his lips forming a cold smirk. "We don't welcome troublemakers here, unless you want to dig your grave." His dismissive attitude infuriated me. I straightened up and glared back. "What makes you so sure I'm a scammer? Or that I'm here to cause trouble? Call the cops if you want!"

“Excuse me? I am a citizen with information. You should be begging me for kt.” “You are wrong again,” she coubterwd. “You are a criminal. You should be the one begging… I'm only here to give you a lifeline. Don’t mistake it for leverage.” “Save the threats. I know the law.” I hissed, fisting my hands. “You know how to manipulate it,” she slammed with a smile. “Thats not the same thing. Besides your record and network is a trail of money and blood. So immunity can’t save you from all of it.”

I “We’d established the apartment was thrashed but your honor,” I turned and faced my client. “It is obvious that my client is rash and impulsive but even with that she doesn’t have a criminal record. She works in a bar and feeds her family. A simple life. Her mother is currently sick. She is just a simple citizen that happened to be caught up in a spectacle. Does her working in a bar suddenly make her a threat to other citizens? No. Because a person work doesn’t determine who a person is. Just because she served in a bar doesn’t mean she poses harm to anyone. She was simply doing her best to survive rather than steal, sell drugs and among others.”

“You can’t do that. I’m an American citizen.” “No, you are not…anymore.” The FBI agent said. “Your citizenship has been revoked under the new human trafficking laws, and you broke international laws against child endangerment. You have been sentenced to death by hanging, and you will be hung by the neck until dead in one week.” “What?” He screamed.
