Chapter 445These men were armed and in uniform; they were armed police.
There were over fifty of them.
The leader was Logan Hugh.
He shouted, “The armed police are here on official duty. Please cooperate with us. No one should
move from their places now. The first squad, cover the left. The second squad, cover the right. Third
squad, block all exits. Fourth squad, come with me to arrest the suspect.”
noveldramaThe sudden appearance of the armed police frightened the guests of the ceremony. None dared to
move from their seats.
Lacey and Daniel exchanged a look of terror.
If they were not wrong, Logan must be the man Emily said they had crossed.
Logan had gone against them several times in the past, but he had failed each time. Lacey had not
been expecting him to try the same thing again so soon.
What will he accuse us of this time?
Will we be able to survive this?
After all, Zeke was the one to defeat him in the past, but now, he was not by their sides. Evan was calm as he said in a placid tone, “Officer Hugh, you’ve come uninvited, and you’ve
surrounded my venue without permission. Don’t you think you need to give me an explanation at the
very least?”
Logan did not bother being polite with Evan as he said, “What’s wrong? Do I need to report my
confidential tasks to you? It’s best that you do nothing stupid, or I’ll arrest you on charges of disrupting
the police.”
Evan said, “Very well. I hope you will not regret your actions.”
Logan sneered, “With those words of yours, I’ll charge you with threatening the police. Men, arrest
Evan Schneider right now.”
Two officers immediately restrained Evan.
Lacey panicked.
She knew Logan was most likely coming after her family.
She was upset that it had involved Evan.
She was about to beg them to spare Evan when the latter shot her a look, signaling to her not to
intervene.
With no other options, Lacey swallowed her words back down her throat.
Logan demanded, “Who is Daniel Hinton? Show yourself.” Daniel’s heart was pounding from anxiety, but he straightened his back and said, “I am.”
Logan continued, “We received a tip saying that you’ve committed a murder. Please cooperate with us
with the investigation back at the station.”
Daniel immediately refuted, “This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. I’m a doctor. I save lives. Why
would I kill people?”
Logan replied, “I know you’re a doctor. Someone reported you abused your power and intentionally
caused medical malpractice. You’re an embarrassment to doctors. You’re not unfit to be one.”
Daniel’s mind was blown away when he heard Logan’s words.
As a doctor, it was an utmost humiliation for him to have someone say he was abusing his power to
squander lives.
Daniel refused to take the blame for this. “This is bullshit! I am a righteous and honest man. Being a
doctor is sacred to me. How could I taint a healer’s way?”
Logan answered, “Do you think you’ll be innocent just because you say you are? I have a witness with
me today.”
At that, he waved toward the outside of the door. “Come in.”
Soon, a man walked in from the outside. It was Humpty. Daniel immediately recognized him. Humpty was his patient who was Yang-deficient.
Back then, he had diagnosed him as Yang-deficient, but the man refused to let him write it down.
Later on, Humpty had written on his health report that he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. After
that, he sent Daniel a banner of gratitude, claiming that the latter had cured him of his pancreatic
cancer.
He reported me?
What’s going on?
