巡回检察组全集

'If Alvin doesn't want to have any association with you, why would he put his men behind Janet Collins?'

Wilson swallowed hard. The truth was Janet abandoned Alvin and Wilson never cared about Alvin despite knowing about his existence from the beginning of his relationship with Janet.

Now he was trying to acquaint himself with Alvin because he is broke. He wished to climb the ladder back by using Alvin's money and reputation. He wanted to get the same respect he was getting before.

Could he tell Richard about it?

No.

The truth would easily reveal he was the mastermind behind the situation. He could lie as Alvin was being sadistic.

Would it be believable enough? Wilson suspected.

He could only hope that Janet would listen to him and lie to the cops. Hence he repeated his line, "You should ask him."

Wilson watched Richard staring at him. He struggled to put on the indifference and blurted out, "Captain Richard, instead of interrogating Alvin, why are you questioning me?"

Wilson was getting panicked the longer Richard spent time asking questions. Alvin treated him as an air the longer Richard sat in front of Alvin. If Alvin was a culprit, Richard never met a criminal as calm as him. If Alvin was a culprit, no culprit ever accepted his doing so swiftly.

Richard wanted to look at both sides of the coin. Unfortunately, he was suspicious of Wilson instead of the imperious man who didn't speak a word more.

"Mr. Wilson, Alvin Matthews has the right to remain silent. If you don't cooperate we could do nothing." He clearly mentioned Wilson has to put his act together.

Wilson furrowed hearing Alvin could stay silent. Whereas he was being forced to respond. "U-use different methods." He fiercely suggested the cop beat Alvin.

Richard controlled himself from rolling his eyes. A cop who beats an accused in his custody can be imprisoned and/or suspended or terminated. They could only use force if Alvin attacks them or tries to escape.

What's more, Alvin was a son of Janet and his intention of following Janet was unknown. Thus Alvin was a suspect under interrogation. They have to release Alvin by evening if they fail to get concrete proof or a statement against Alvin from Janet.

However, Richard's main intention was to ask Wilson to speak the truth. Anyway, he revealed the status of the case, "Mr. Wilson, your complaint against Alvin holds no power due to lack of justifiable reason for Alvin Matthews to harm your wife, and Alvin Matthews is the son of Janet Wilson."

He placed a paper in front of Wilson and continued, "The arrest warrant is invalidated…" He didn't get to say Alvin will be under interrogation until they get a statement from Janet.

"What!" Wilson's eyes widened hearing the arrest warrant was invalidated. He freaked out, "How could you do that?"

His thoughts ran far and wild thinking of the ways Alvin could destroy his life. He shook his head repeatedly and recalled what he had heard, "Didn't Alvin accept that he was stalking my wife? He is dangerous." His voice rose.

Richard: "..."

Wilson pointed his hand at Richard in disbelief, "Did he buy you all? Is that woman behind all these? Unbelievable." He slammed his hands on the table.

Richard calmly watched the man getting riled up. Now, they could see Wilson's aim wasn't to keep Janet safe but keep Alvin behind the bars. But why?

As per the information they received from other police stations, Alvin lived in the Matthews family without any contact with the biological mother. Then why does Wilson dislike Alvin?

Wilson, who was about to threaten Richard as he will tell the media, bit his tongue and planned again.

If he keeps insisting that Alvin means harm to Janet, they would start suspecting him. Before that could happen, or before Alvin could do something, he should go and complete the press conference. Shouldn't he?

In a panic to get away from the trouble, Wilson completely forgot he was doing all of this so that Alvin could offer money and stocks to him in return for taking the case back.

"I'm sorry, I lost my control. I will let you guys find the truth." Wilson oddly looked calm giving creeps to Richard.

If Wilson was expecting he could escape with that line, he was wrong. Richard nodded to himself and started his questioning again, "Tell me about Janet Wilson's relationship with Alvin Matthews." He paused and added a specific question, "Did she hide about Alvin Matthews because she had an affair with a married man or because her career will be affected by Alvin Matthews?"

Both were the truth. The main reason was second. However, Wilson responded as "Casper Matthews drafted an agreement to stay away from Alvin Matthews and never contact him."

Likewise, Richard asked a few questions related to Janet which Wilson handled meticulously, very eager to leave.

Richard was finding no clue. He considered speaking with others, especially Janet. So he collected the papers and went to the door. He added before he exited, "That's it for now. We will call you if needed."

Wilson didn't rush to leave. He breathed in relief and composed himself as there were media outside.

Richard who went out met the anticipating gaze of his team members and Warner. He shook in disappointment, "Either he is telling the truth or he is smart." Although Wilson lost control, none of his words helped the case progress.

"Where…" Richard's voice abruptly halted when his gaze fell, the steely gray eyes slowly moving behind the three cops who were in front of him.

He felt his hair raise watching the icy cold stare that could scare the pants off. He followed the line of sight and saw Wilson blanched.

Wilson felt a cold run down his spine as soon as Anya's eyes sharpened on him. He tried to fake a smile at the cops but he failed.

His plan wasn't going as he wanted. He expected Anya and Alvin to surrender to him and ask him to take the case back. Why was she so intimidating?

'Ahem.' Clearing his throat, he scurried away to reach the reporters. He also forgot to ask if Janet had reached the station.

Anya watched the man's back before turning to Deputy Warner, "Deputy Warner, would you like to control the crowd in front of your station?" She meant the interview Wilson was going to give to the reporters. Wilson would blow up the situation.

She sounded like she was alerting them. However, the man who stood beside her knew she had different plans. Alvin watched Richard and Warner look at each other before Richard rushed out with the other cops.

Warner sighed. Anya had proof and she wasn't giving him. His source was still fetching details of Wilson. He agrees they weren't quick as secret service officers, shouldn't she show some mercy on them during the festive season? Sigh, he went inside his office to do his work.

Anya's attention was on the commotion outside when Alvin tugged her to lean on him, "What is your plan?" It might be because of the police station, she was oddly silent. Definitely, not the pleasing kind of silence.

Anya relaxed her nerves hearing Alvin's voice and his warmth wrapping around her. She glanced at the room where Janet was being questioned. Turning around to face him, "Don't you want a surprise?" She probed lifting her brows.

To please him, she had to ask Warner if Alvin could wait outside as he wasn't being questioned. Now, he seemed impatient.

Alvin pretended to be thinking and whispered in a low seductive tone, "Only if… You are the surprise."

Anya involuntarily imagined herself in some sexy lingerie. Struggling to hide her smile, she revealed the plan, "Husband and wife will give the interview together." But in different places with or without being aware of each other's actions.

Alvin deduced the whole plan with her few words. He pitied the couple who were falling into his wife's effortless trap. She was ruthless to strip their reputation and respect publicly. He completed her words, "You are the party pooper."

That didn't sound good to the ears. "My dear husband," Anya sounded too sweet to believe. She leaned close to reach his ear and whispered temptingly, "I'm the breaking news."
