Chapter 1798
Ernest drove his closed fist into Hogan''s face once more, and blood spurted out.
Hogan''s nose was broken, and it was crooked to one side.
Leah was frightened. She was afraid that assaulting Hogan would affect Ernest, so she said, “Ernest. stop hitting him. I already called the police, and
they''re on their way. You shouldn''t waste your energy of a piece of sh*t like him."
Ernest was unhappy at being stopped, but what Leah called Hogan turned his mood around quickly.
Leah did not care about this scumbag, but she was looking out for him.
Right at that moment, the bodyguard at the door shouted, "Master Ernest, the police are here.”
Ernest smiled faintly at Hogan and he punched him again savagely in front of the cops.
"What''s going on?" The lead policeman shouted at once
He stepped forward to stop Ernest from hitting Hogan. "Why are you beating him up so badly?"
Ernest stood up and gave the cops a piercing look.
His gaze was oppressive, and it startled the policemen. It was the first time they''d ever seen such a sharp look on a young man.
It was as if he was born with a leader''s temperament, and it surprised them
The policeman opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He looked at Ernest and lowered his voice. “What''s going on? We received a report.”
"You should know what''s going on, no?" Ernest did not spare the cops any dignity and admonished them right away. "If you''de anyter, this
scumbag right here would have hurt an innocent woman."
The police were stunned. They had never faced such a blunt person, and they didn’t know how to respond.
The atmosphere became a bit tense, and it turned into a confrontation.
Hogan took the opportunity to wail, “Officer, you need to see what''s going on here. They''re trying to kill me! I''m the victim here! My entire face is
covered with blood, and my nose hurts like mad!"
Hogan''s nose was crooked to one side from the force of Ernest''s punches.
Hence, hisints made him look like the victim.
The police obviously misunderstood the whole situation.
They said to Ernest, "You''re our main suspect!”
Leah was stunned by this and she quickly stepped forward. "Officer, I called the police. The whole situation is actually very different, and we''re the
real victims here. Don''t get us wrong."
Leah presented Rowane to the police for them to check on her.
She also exined the situation in great detail
"This is my sister, Rowane. She was beat up by that man lying on the floor, and this is my boyfriend.” Leah pointed at Ernest and said, "He was.
pissed at that man hurting us both physically and verbally, so that''s why he hit him."
"Even so, this is considered assault.” The cops frowned at Ernest.
Leah replied, "Yes, he shouldn''t have hit him. However, idents happen, and I feel like we shouldn''t hold back against scumbags like him. Thew
serves to protect the innocent, and it''s not to be used as a shield for the guilty.”
The police were taken aback by what Leah said and made a call to confirm. Surely enough, Leah was the one who called the police.
Rowane also exined how the whole thing went down. In the end, the police said to them, "This has gotten a bit moreplicated. If you hadn''t
assaulted him, then we will detain Hogan. However, now we have to detain the person who assaulted him as well.”
Leah replied, "I don''t care about theplications of the case, but detaining my boyfriend is a no. I just wanted to ask if you have any other measures
for someone as stubborn as Hogan. For example, perhaps protecting the victim by restricting his freedom. You can''t just sit by and watch while he
hurts us right?”
"Let''s go to the hospital first and check on Rowane’s injuries. Both of you have assaulted someone. If it was one-sided, then it would be easier." The
police said.
"Is that so?" Leah was starting to get impatient. "Easier? Then was it not right for us to defend ourselves? What you''re saying sounds like we should
never even try to defend ourselves even when we''re under threat."
"Miss, don''t you worry about that. We''re doing this ording to the rule ofw," The officer replied.
"I''m aw student, and I just recited one. I also know whatws you policemen operate under, and I don''t think you''ve done things with quotes to
procedure, right?” Leah asked.
The police were stunned.
Leah continued, "Yesterday, when
my younger sister called the police,
you interrogated Hogan. However,
you did not protect her and released
Hogan itstead. Did you inform my
sister.that you''d released him?You
knewthat Hogan would take> I
revénge on my sister after he got
out, but you didn''t infornyher nor did
you send officers to keep an eye on
her. This is your fault.” Content

They were stunned and said, "We''re not assigned to that case."
"Wow, looks like you''re shirking
responsibilitynow. Are you going to
ignore this just because it’s not your
case? Aré you going to pass it offto
your calfeagues? You''re from the’
same police station, no?" Leatrhit
thepolicemen with a barrage of
d@estions.
Then, Ernest pulled Leah behind him and faced the cops. He said, "You should check the time you left the station. From the time Leah called it in to
when you arrived, wasn''t it a huge dy?"
They were all stunned by the question and looked at Ernest.
Ernest''s tone was indifferent as he said, "If you think my presence is hindering your investigation, but instead protect Hogan, I would like to ask your
commanding officer Jensen Charm whether or not
this is allowed.”
The expressions on the policemen’s faces changed.
Then, the bodyguard said, "Master Ernest, are you nning to see Officer Charm?"
Ernest replied, "Of course. Shawn,
have someone take Rowane to the
hospital with the police for a ~
checkup to determine the extent of
her idjuries, Hogan should go’as
well, and I''ll pay for his medical bills.”
"Yes, Master Ernest." Shawn nodded right away.
The policemen were unsure what was going on, but they understood that Jensen must share some sort of special rtionship with Ernest after
hearing how Shawn addressed Ernest
Twenty minutester.
At the police station
Ernest brought Leah straight to the police station
As soon as Jensen heard the news, he rushed over at once.
Jensen appeared tall and strong in his police uniform, and he exuded an aura that demanded respect. Everyone stood up unconsciously when he
arrived
Jensen looked at his subordinates and said nothing.
He went straight to Ernest and Leah.
Leah''s heart skipped a beat in her chest. She didn''t know what rtionship Ernest and Jensen shared. All she knew was that this officer looked quite
serious indeed.
Although there was a gentle expression on his face, there was an imposing air around him.
Jensen strode over and bumped Ernest in his shoulder with his fist. Then, he let out a bright smile. "Not bad, kid. You''re getting stronger by the day."
Ernest stood up and smiled at his uncle.
"Hi, Uncle Charm," Ernest called out.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Leah was dumbfounded. This was Emest''s uncle?
Jensen was Ernest''s rtive.
Good, then there''s nothing to be afraid of.
If she had known that Ernest''s uncle was a policeman, she would have called Jensen right away.
Oh right, they hadn''t made up yet when she called the police yesterday.
Leah stood aside them with anger in her chest. Well, if she couldn''t use that method, at least they could bring Hogan to justice.
It would be good if they could handle this impartially.
Of course, Leah was still very optimistic.
"And this is?" As a policeman, Jensen was very observant and spotted Leah standing next to Ernest right away. She was a beautiful girl, but she had
an interesting expression on her face.
Then, Ernest introduced Leah to Jensen. "Uncle, this is Leah Winston, my girlfriend."
