Chapter 11

Roy Duncan added, “What’s wrong with the Transportation Bureau and the law enforcement agencies? Can’t I even buy a driver’s license?”

Mandy March, for some reason, actually said, “It’s possible!”

“If you keep talking nonsense to me, I’ll make sure to take you back!”

When Molly Craigie heard that Roy Duncan wanted to arrest someone, she immediately panicked.

“How can you just arrest people randomly like that!”

“Mandy March is the main suspect in both cases. So, I need his cooperation with the investigation. If he refuses to cooperate, I’ll have no choice but to use force!”

“Alright then, Officer Duncan. Molly and I are hungry right now. How about you take us out for a meal, and then I’ll go back to the police station with you?”

Roy Duncan was so angry that his teeth clenched. He wondered if he had offended this “plague deity” in a past life, to the point where she even had to pay for his meals.

Not even her sister next to her tried to stop her at all. Is there really something wrong with this entire family?!

“However, Captain Duncan, I have something to ask you. Do you want to take me back by force, or shall I go back on my own?”

“Of course, I’ll take you back. You’re such a sly person that I wouldn’t even know when you tried to run away!”

With that, he put a handcuff on Mandy March, and the other one on his own arm.

It would be extremely easy for Mandy March to get rid of these handcuffs. But since Roy Duncan has said he wants to arrest her, let him do his job and take her back to the police station.

“But, Captain Duncan, if you really decide to do it, it’s easy for you to capture me. But getting rid of me won’t be that simple.”

Molly Craigie, however, was worried. She said that her brother was just rude in his speech, and that there was no need to arrest him. She hadn’t seen her brother for several years.

“Oh? You mean your brother isn’t Welsh? He’s been abroad all this time?”

Mandy March felt uneasy. Roy Duncan had initially been acting out of anger, but now, it seemed he was determined to take Mandy March back to the police station.

During that first meeting, Roy Duncan already considered Mandy March to be a suspicious person. What Mandy March did to him in the lounge later only made Roy Duncan regard her as a bad person even more.

Even if he saved her life, it’s the same thing. Maybe he just wanted her beauty?

At least that’s what Roy Duncan thought at that moment.

At that moment, my stomach started to growl.

“Captain Duncan, I’m hungry too. How about we get out of the car and eat something first?”

Molly Craigie nodded repeatedly, indicating that she was truly hungry. She also felt a bit guilty. If it weren’t for her being playful, her brother probably wouldn’t have called the police. Now, her brother was about to get arrested.

Will I never see my brother again?

Roy Duncan walked up to the entrance of a Chinese restaurant, only to hear the waiter say, “Ma’am, I’m sorry, but we’re currently not serving meals.”

After visiting several stores in a row, they sensed that something was wrong.

All restaurants and food-related businesses have closed!

“There’s a problem. Five restaurants in a row weren’t open. There must be something wrong!”

As the captain of a law enforcement team, Roy Duncan quickly got into the swing of things.

Then, he showed the identification of the law enforcement agency from which he had left, in order to get the boss to cooperate with the investigation.

However, Mandy Marches became a highlight.

“That guy really just wanted to take a look at the girl’s beauty, but he was caught by Captain Duncan right away! Really, if I had a wife like Captain Duncan’s, I wouldn’t even think about having another woman in my life!”

“That’s true. Fortunately, this kid has no ill intentions toward Captain Duncan. Otherwise, Captain Duncan could easily teach him a lesson with his blade!”

“Captain Duncan is a trained warrior. Is it really necessary to use a sharp weapon against such scoundrels? Just think about breaking their legs and ensuring they can never have children again.”

Mandy March was really hungry, but all the restaurants were closed at that time.

It seems like someone is deliberately instigating this, which has caused panic among the citizens. They all feel like something terrible is about to happen.

“Captain Duncan, I’m sure it was that bastard Burgess Jars who did this!”

Burgess Jars?

After hearing about Burgess Jars, Roy Duncan felt confused once again. If the Jars family’s downfall was caused solely by Mandy March, then shouldn’t Mandy March have silenced Burgess Jars as well?

But Burgess Jars is still alive, and no one knows where he is.

Now, another important informant has disappeared.

Moreover, Burgess Jars simply wouldn’t cooperate with Roy Duncan at all.

“How capable can Burgess Jars really be?”

Mandy March had no intention of getting involved in this matter with Roy Duncan. She simply chose to ignore it. Besides, she was hungry.

Then he slipped his left hand into his pants and took out his phone.

Just after making the phone call, Roy Duncan realized that he had somehow managed to unlock the handcuffs, without even realizing it himself.

"You?"

She stared at Mandy March, then looked at him with a displeased expression.

“Oh, Captain Duncan, you’ve noticed it. Then are you going to take it back?”

As she spoke, Mandy March extended one hand toward him.

“Never mind. Since you were able to solve it once, there will surely be a second chance. As long as you’re willing to cooperate with the investigation, that’s enough!”

Roy Duncan shook his head helplessly. When it came to Mandy March, he really had no idea what to do with her!

Molly Craigie felt annoyed by this officer’s strange behavior, but she didn’t dare say anything, for fear that she might also get arrested if she spoke up.

Actually, Roy Duncan is quite polite to other people. It’s just that some of the things Mandy March did in the past left a very bad impression on him. Plus, all these recent incidents were related to her, which is why this situation has arisen.

“Captain Duncan, shouldn’t you investigate this matter now? I’ll go eat first! Of course, if you’d like, I can take you out to dinner!”

Roy Duncan didn’t refuse and nodded his head.

Just then, Mel Duncan’s phone call went through.

“Mage, the Wilde family is in big trouble. It’s due to their arch-rivals, the Craigie family. The two families are commercial competitors!”

“The Welsh Craigie family?”

This family was already well-known to Mandy March when she was in Wales. The head of the Craigie family started from scratch and managed to make his way into the ranks of Wales’ wealthiest families, ranking among the top twenty.

This opponent will take advantage of any weaknesses. Mandy March had thought of this long ago. In fact, the solution is quite simple. But Mandy March doesn’t intend to spoil Maria Wilde too much. She needs to face some setbacks in order to grow. Maria always acts like she’s superior to everyone else. All her success until now was because her grandfather still had the power to make decisions.

The head of the Wilde family has emerged from danger, but remains in a coma.

The members of the Wilde family began to compete for the position of family head.

Shareholders with significant power have embarked on a silent war. Mandy March’s goal is to help Maria Wilde become the head of the household.

But for now, the most important thing is to find something to eat and fill my stomach first.

To be this hungry is simply unacceptable.

“By the way, Captain Duncan, why don’t you take me to the Wilde family along the way? I happen to want to eat at the Wilde family’s place!”
