Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 628

Mack's face was extremely dark as his brows were tightly furrowed. Did Director Sherlock say that Jimmy had killed someone?

It was ridiculous!

Obviously, Mack didn't believe it. "Sherlock, what did you just say?"

Ella also echoed anxiously, "Yes, what were you talking about just now? Did you say..."

Why would her Jimmy kill people? She must be old and had a problem with her ears!

With a serious expression, Director Sherlock walked over and told the driver, "Help him in first."

He was afraid that if Mack would not bear the truth, so it would be better for him to sit down before listening to the remaining part of the news.

"Yes."

Hearing that, the driver nodded and quickly led Jimmy's parents into the house.

Ariah stood under the roof and felt a sense of despair that spread from her feet to her entire body.

"Ariah..."

David called her name uneasily.

Ariah's face was too pale, and it seemed that she would not be able to hold on.

Suddenly, Ariah's gaze fell on David as she asked word by word, "Tell me, were you telling me the truth?"

Upon hearing that, David let down his shoulders. "I saw it with my own eyes..."

"Look into my eyes!" Ariah interrupted him and said in a forceful voice, "David, look into my eyes and tell me what's going on with Jimmy!"

David's heart shuddered, for he initially thought that a woman like Ariah would be fragile. He did not expect her to be so calm in the face of this matter.

She was even calmer than a man like him who was shocked when he first knew about it...

As David took a deep breath, he elaborated slowly, "When the police called us, we didn't believe it either. We could only believe it after we went over and confirmed that he was covered in blood."

Just then, Ariah's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground.

"Ariah!"

David hurried to hold her.

"I'm fine." Ariah pushed him away as she placed her hands on her knees and bent down to take a deep breath. "Where is he now?"

"He's still in the police station. Ben is going through the transfer procedure for him while Director Sherlock and I are here to inform you of the issue..."

"Take me there now."

Ariah interrupted him.

"What about his parents..." David hesitated.

Right then, Director Sherlock came out from the inside at this time. "You may go first. I can take care of them. We can meet later."

Ariah turned around and heard Ella crying in the living room.

"She couldn't accept the news and is very emotional now," Director Sherlock explained. "When the of them calm down, I'll take them there. David, please take Ariah there first. I'll be here afterward."

"Yes!" David nodded quickly.

Ariah also followed him as she wanted to see Jimmy very desperately.

Since Director Sherlock was here, Jimmy's parents should be fine.

On the way, David told her everything he knew.

"After the authority verified our identities, we were allowed to meet Jimmy in the police station... When we saw him, he sat on a chair with a bad mood, and his hands were covered in blood."

"Why was he in a bad mood?" Ariah was worried.

"I can't tell. He looked quite calm, which made me wonder whether he really did murder someone. However..."

"What is it?"

"The evidence is there! The police saw the knife in his hand and the man who lay in a pool of blood. There was also a woman screaming in the room."

"A woman?" Ariah paused. "There's another woman? Who?"

"We didn't pay attention to her either. We only knew that she was terrified. When we reached there, a policewoman was comforting her there..." This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Ariah had a headache when she heard the news. She rubbed her temples and closed her eyes to tell herself to calm down.

Looking at her, David did not dare to disturb her and only drove the car silently.

After more than half an hour, they reached the police station.

David then contacted Ben, who immediately came out and called out, "Ariah!" "How's Jimmy now?" "Since the case happened in this area, it will take time to transfer him to our station," Ben quickly summarized the situation to her. "He will probably have to stay here tonight."

"Take me to see him!"

"Let's go," replied Ben.

As soon as she entered the hall, she heard two police officers muttering about Jimmy.

"The murderer is not an ordinary man. Even the chief of the criminal bureau came to see him in person. I heard that he's also a policeman."

"If he broke the law, he must be punished as well. Everyone is equal before the law.”

"How could he break the law when he himself is a policeman?"

"Well, the criminals we arrested were usually impulsive, but they would regret it after they calmed down. I think the police officer was also impulsive when he killed the man!"

"How do you know he's the real murder?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. When I went to the scene, the room was stained with blood. He was committing murder with a knife in his hand. If we hadn't stopped him, he would have done something more terrifying. Fortunately, we arrived in time, or else he would have definitely run away..."

"How dare you!"

David, who could not bear it anymore, rushed over and was going to beat the two young officers. It was then that the young men were shocked to realize that David had probably heard what they were talking about.

"David!"

Ariah shouted at him to stop him from any further violence.

Because of Ariah, David didn't do anything to the two young men. "How could you gossip here before we find out the truth? That's indeed shameful!"

The two officers blushed when they heard that. After their captain came over, they left with embarrassment.

The captain personally apologized to David and Ariah, "I'm sorry. I'll teach them a lesson. Such things will never again."

David let out a cold snort.

"Calm down." Ben came out as the peacemaker as the captain took them to the small room in the back.

"I'll give you a bit of time," said the captain.

With a smile, Ben replied, "I'll treat you to dinner some other day."

"No problem." The captain waved his hand and left happily.

David then took a deep breath and uttered, Ariah, Jimmy is inside the room."

Silently, she pushed open the door.
