My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness

Keller and the others were locked up until nighttime.

During this time, they were unable to get in contact with anyone outside. Every minute that passed was torture.

Finally, around 8 p.m., the head of police arrived.

The last head of police had been demoted, and this one had just taken over the role recently.

He wore a dark look as he walked into the holding cell. It was clear that he was in a terrible mood.

"You really have no clue who you're up against!" the head of police, Scott Wheaton, roared when he got inside.noveldrama

He was in an awful mood.

He had taken so long to show up because he had been dealing with a lot of phone calls.

Each of them came from someone higher up than the last. Many important people were keeping an eye on this issue.

Thus, he had been busy making sure that all these people were reassured.

Scott knew that he would lose his job just as his predecessor had if he did not handle this matter well.

So, he was venting his frustrations on this group of people.

"Are you perhaps blind? Don't you know who you can and can't offend? Why did

you have to provoke him or all people?" Scott was furious.

As they were yelled at, Keller and the others trembled silently.

They were even more afraid because they did not know that person was so powerful that he had even managed to make Scott feel so pressed.

"Keller Douglas, is it?" Scott asked as he stared icily at Keller.

"Yes, sir. I'm Keller Douglas, the heir to the Prolereid Group," Keller said quickly. He wanted to imply how powerful he was.

"Alright."

Scott waved him off impatiently.

"Since you're the heir to a big corporation in Somerton, you should have stayed there and behaved. Why did you have to come here to Rivenesco for no reason?

"While Rivenesco is not as big of a city as Somerton, there are some people here that even a rich kid from Somerton can't afford to provoke! Do you know that your whole company could be destroyed if that person decides to pursue this matter today?" Scott asked darkly.

"What?!"

Scott's words made Keller's eyes widen in shock, and his face went slack in disbelief.

The Prolereid Group was one of the top three corporations in Somerton.

Could it really be destroyed just because they had a conflict with a certain person?

Everyone was taken aback, and terror started to boil within them.

Who in the world had they offended?

"Sir, could you please tell me who I offended?" Keller asked in a trembling voice. "Hmph!" Scott scoffed.

"The higher-ups have said that the person wants to keep his identity a secret. You aren't even qualified to know about him. However, I will say this, no one in Rivenesco dares to offend him!

"There was a misunderstanding last time and nearly half the police department was sacked. The last head of police was demoted to four whole grades even though that person didn't pursue the matter..."

The more Scott talked, the more uneasy Keller and the others felt.

"Sir... W-What will happen to us?" Keller asked shakily.

He was really afraid. He was terrified that he would spend the rest of his life in prison.

Scott looked at them and sneered.

"How should know? Nearly ten big

shots from the city and regional level have called me. They've been pressuring me to get this settled, fast so that everyone can be happy with the results. But how am supposed to do anything until that person tells me what he wants?"

Keller and the others went pale.

They did not expect that this issue would attract so much attention.

"Just wait. The whole police precinct will be watching you tonight. This will last

until he decides to say something."

After that, Scott left. He was still scowling.

The holding cell rang with mournful cries.

"What do we do?! Are we never getting out of here?" someone wailed.
