Chapter 2168


    Zeke saw through his evil n.


    Instantly, he released his energy and sent Teddy flying.


    When he sprawled on the floor, he was still confused about what happened. “What was that? What hit


    me? What''s going on?”


    Before he could figure it out, a troop rushed in.


    It was Bertram and his police force.


    They were all dumbfounded the moment they saw the fire.


    “What on earth happened? Why is there a fire? Who''s on duty? Teddy, is it you?”


    “Yes... Yes, it''s me.” Teddy''s body was aching all over.


    Bertram strode across to help him up. “What''s the matter, Teddy? Who attacked you? Also, who set the


    fire?”


    Teddy replied, “It''s Zeke. He tried to escape prison. That exins the fire. I did my best to stop him but


    to no avail. I''m badly wounded... Go ahead and subdue him, don''t worry about me. He''s a dangerous


    person. I... I suggest you leave thew enforcement recorded on while you shoot him dead. It will save


    you a lot of trouble.”

    Zeke Williams!


    Bertram annunciated the name through gritted teeth. Then, hey Teddy down and whipped out his


    gun.


    As he approached Zeke, his men followed suit. They took out their weapons and aimed them at Zeke.


    Suddenly, Bertram stopped when he was about three feet away from Zeke. He asked like an eager


    predator ring at its prey, “You killed Rhett and Lucy too, didn''t you?”


    Zeke shook his head. “No, I did not kill them.”


    Bertram shouted, “Rubbish! If you''re innocent, why did you n to break free from prison? You''re


    obviously feeling guilty.”


    “How did you know that I want to prison break? Just based on what his one-sided usations?” Zeke


    questioned him back.


    Bertram was stunned. He''s got a point.


    “Teddy, do you have any evidence to prove that he''s escaping prison? What about your recorder? Was


    the process captured on video?” Bertram queried.


    Teddy''s heart skipped a beat.


    Oh no, I''ll be in deep sh*t if Bertram checks the recording. There''s evidence of my duel with Sheldon. I


    wanted to delete it earlier but was interrupted by Zeke.


    “Dang it! I can''t believe I forgot to turn it on. The fire came like a bolt from the blue. So, I panicked


    and...” He quickly came up with an excuse.


    Bertram looked disappointed, but chose to remain silent.


    Then, he turned his gaze to Zeke.


    Teddy swiftly seized the opportunity and tossed his recorder into the fire.


    Bertram announced, “Zeke, I can''t conclude if you had the intention to break free from the prison;


    neither can I confirm if you''re the culprit behind the fire. Additionally, I also have no idea if you''re the


    one who assaulted Teddy. Nheless, you''re our prime suspect. I request that you cooperate with us


    throughout the investigation.”


    “No problem. Anyway, don''t you want to know why Sheldon was in this very ce at an ungodly hour?”


    Sheldon?


    “Who''s that?” Bertram was curious.


    Teddy''s face instantly turned red.


    Sh*t, how should I exin Sheldon''s unjustified presence? It''s all his fault for ruining the perfect n


    and creating so many loopholes.


    Bertram pursued further. “Teddy, who''s Sheldon? Why is he here at the lock-up at midnight?”


    “He''s most probably here for a visit. I''m not too sure myself. Since he''s fainted due to the fuming


    smoke, I think it''s best we rush him to the hospital right away. His safetyes first,” Teddy suggested.


    “Quick! Rush him to the hospital,” Bertram agreed without putting much thought into it.


    Suppressing the pain felt all over his body, Teddy carried Sheldon up and ran away.


    Let''s leave this ce first. When Sheldon is conscious, we can discuss,e up with the same story


    and cover for each other.
