Chapter 182


    Zyler no longer had to worry about the possibility of bing a mute.


    "Mom, I can talk!" he eximed excitedly. But when he raised his head, he noticed everyone else


    staring at him as though he was an idiot.


    "Since you''re not injured to the point that you can''t walk, you''ll be following us to the police station


    as well," Nathan stated.


    Zyler also thought that Hera was about to receive her jail sentence, so he nodded in agreement.


    He wanted to witness Hera getting thrown into jail.


    Under the passersby''s curious gazes, Nathan took Queenie and Zyler back to the police station.


    Then, he led them to the detention facility.


    Both Kane and Shaun happened to be away at the moment, leaving only an officer keeping Hera


    company.


    The sight of Hera ying on her phone in her cell put Zyler in a good mood. For a moment, he


    really wished that Christopher was there to witness this scene.


    But Queenie had a feeling that something was wrong. Still, her sense of superiority muddled her


    brain just enough to temporarily ignore that weird feeling.


    "Oh? It turns out that Gideon didn''t even hire awyer for you, huh?" she asked mockingly.


    Hera was sitting in front of the security camera with the back of her phone facing the camera. She


    was in the midst ofpleting the mission Piglet had epted for her, so she didn''t bother sparing


    Queenie a nce.


    It was then Queenie finally realized why things felt off for her.


    Hera''s cell door was wide open, not to mention she was ying on her phone! Weirdly enough,


    Brandon was absent as well!


    Typically speaking, suspects detained in the detention facility would have their means of


    communication confiscated immediately.


    "I''ve brought them here."


    At that moment, Kane and Shaun returned to the cell from the men''s washroom.


    Queenie was shocked when she turned around to see them. She initially thought that Brandon was


    the one who had invited them to the detention facility.


    Truth be told, Queenie had always wanted to kiss up to the famous Thompson family, who was


    known for its military prowess and achievements. But she never had a chance to do so in the past.


    How was Brandon able to invite Shaun to this ce?


    Queenie was perplexed, to say the least. Either she, Zyler, or Hera was the reason why Shaun


    decided toe.


    Since Shaun didn''te at the Gaskells'' behest, could it be that he came here because of Hera?


    That was impossible. Hera had grown up in the countryside. How was it possible for her to get


    acquainted with Shaun?


    That was why Queenie''s gut told her that Shaun and Kane came to the detention facility because of


    the Gaskells.


    Some time ago, rumors were circting about the possibility of the Gaskells working with Raven,


    which was a major boost in their reputation and fame. Recently, their stock prices skyrocketed


    simply because they were revealed to be extremely close to Dr. Shadow.


    It was only natural for Shaun to favor them.


    "Mr. Thompson! Chief Manford! Hi there!" Queenie greeted them smilingly.


    She pped on a friendly demeanor, as though she was close to them. "I didn''t expect you two to


    come over and personally deal with this miniscule matter of mine. Honestly, I''m ttered."


    "This is no miniscule matter, Mrs. Gaskell. Since Brandon can''t deal with this matter properly, I''ll be


    the one dealing with it in his stead," Kane replied seriously.


    Upon hearing Kane''s answer, Queenie''s weird feeling came back in full force. But she continued


    smiling at Kane and Shaun.


    "Thank you in advance, Chief Manford, Mr. Thompson."


    At that moment, a police officer led a gray-suited man wearing a pair of frameless sses into the


    building.


    "Hello, everyone. I''m Ms. Youngworth''swyer, Rupert McLaggen."

    Hera stopped keying in the codes for a moment. She quickly raised her head to look at Rupert.


    Awyer? Did Gideon hire Rupert for her?


    On the other hand, Queenie''s smile began to fade away the moment she spotted Rupert.


    Rupert was a famouswyer in Jadonia. Nomon folk would be able to afford to hire him.


    Was he actually Hera''swyer?


    The weird feeling that was haunting Queenie began to intensify.


    "Chief Manford, Captain Olson, I''ve brought Christopher here." Another officer led Christopher into


    the building at that moment.


    "Christopher, why are you here?" An ominous feeling began seeping into Zyler''s senses when he


    saw Christopher.


    Christopher just looked at the Gaskells grimly without responding to them. On the way to the


    detention facility, he found out what happened from the officer escorting him.


    This time, he was extremely disappointed in Zyler and the rest of the Gaskells.


    Queenie''s smile hadpletely disappeared at that point.


    Based on how things were unfolding at the moment, the police didn''t intend to issue Hera a prison


    sentence. They were actually here to confront Queenie.
