Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 836

Chapter 836

“What’s wrong? Still not convinced?” Hector snapped, his temper laring in an instant.

After being pushed around all day, the last thing he could tolerate was taking a punch from this guy.

If it weren’t for him, he could’ve clocked out early today.

Now, that was completely out of the question.

Julian’s face was pressed against the wall, the flesh on his cheek distorted from the force.

Yet his broken voice still spilled out from between his lips.

“You think I don’t know what your precinct said? If not for that, my dad would’ve never treated me like this.

“I don’t believe it. I can’t accept it. I’m his only son. What exactly did you tell him?”

Julian’s mind was still stuck on what Albert had just said.

He had only been in Millford for a few days–how did it all fall apart so fast?

His father’s attitude had taken a sharp turn.

It hadn’t been like this before.

No, he wasn’t going to accept this.

He couldn’t just die in some foreign country.

He had to rise again.

He hadn’t even settled the score with Tessa yet!

That woman wasn’t getting away.

And back in Ravenshore, there was another woman waiting for him too.

None of them should even think he was going to fall!

Julian suddenly changed his tone, no longer sounding arrogant or overbearing like before.

“Officer, this is my fault. Please, I’m begging you, just let me make one more call.”

Hector glanced at Lucas, finding the shift strange.

What was this guy playing at?

He wasn’t like this just a moment ago–how could he switch up so quickly?

“Weren’t you already on the phone just now?”

As the saying goes, no one should struck a person who wore a friendly face.

Since the guy was being polite, Hector didn’t mind exchanging a few more words.

“That was different.”

Julian paused, looking a little embarrassed. “That call was to my dad. Now I miss my mom. I need to ask her something.”

Hector narrowed his eyes slightly. He could already tell something was off but didn’t press it.

He had been told from his management that as long as it wasn’t anything outrageous, he could allow it.

It was just a phone call–nothing serious.

“Alright

go

ahead and call.”

Hearing that, Julian looked up in shock.

He had assumed the officer would definitely say no.

He was just beating himself up for even bringing it up.

It was embarrassing.

But to his surprise, the officer didn’t mock him at all.

Instead, he agreed without much fuss.
