Lacey asked, “What way?”
Zeke answered, “Did you think I’d merely invited Mr. Jenkins over for tea?”
Lacey brightened up. “That’s right. Mr. Jenkins, Zeke has been with you the entire time during the incident. I’m sure you can authenticate his alibi.”
Brent reassured her, “Don’t worry. I know the difference between right and wrong.”
Meanwhile, Brent was smiling bitterly to himself.
Zeke’s the Great Marshal. He doesn’t need me to be a witness for his alibi.
Suddenly, loud noises resounded from outside the door.
“Police at work! Remain seated at your spots. Where’s Zeke Williams? Tell him to come out.”
Zeke glanced at Brent. “Brent, you should stay hidden first.”
Brent queried, “Mr. Williams, hadn’t you asked me to be a witness for your alibi earlier? Why do you need me to stay hidden?”
Zeke responded, “Don’t you want to take a look at how your men behave while you’re not around?”
Brent nodded instantly. “Okay. I’ll stay hidden for now.”
He prayed silently, I hope Lionel follows the proper procedures later. If he commits wrong, crossing the Great Marshal, I’ll have to suffer with him.
Soon, Zach and Lionel entered the room.
Soon, Zach and Lionel entered the room.
Zach had a smug look on his face while Lionel appeared murderous.
“You’re Zeke Williams?” Lionel asked.
Zeke nodded. “Yes, that’s me.”
Lionel immediately ordered, “Cuff him and take him away.”
“Hold on,” Zeke muttered coldly, “Why are you taking me away?”
Lionel replied, “You clearly know why you’re being arrested.”
Zeke responded, “I’m sorry. I really don’t.”
Lionel huffed, “Stop pretending to be a fool. Take a look for yourself.”
He then handed him the footage.
After watching the footage, Zeke laughed, “How can you be so sure that the one in the video is me and not the one beside you?”
Lionel scoffed, “Obviously. You’d said your own name in the video.”
Zeke questioned, “Let me ask you this. When you kill someone, are you likely to say your name, or someone else’s?”
His question baffled Lionel. “I... I...”
Zach spoke up. “Zeke, stop fooling around. It’s an embarrassment for the Williams family to have someone like you. I’m warning you on behalf of the Williams family. You’re not worthy of sharing the last name of Williams. Hurry up and change it.”
Zeke glared at Zach. “We’d come from the same womb, so why should we hurt one another? Previously, I couldn’t comprehend the meaning of that sentence, but now, I do. Zach Williams, you’ve been unkind to me. Now, I’ll do the same to you.”
Zach grinned, “I can’t believe a murder suspect is threatening me. You’re simply adding on to your crimes. Mr. Gordon, I recall that you’ve found three witnesses that have identified Zeke as the perpetrator.”
Lionel smacked his head and gasped, “Why did I forget about that? Bring in the witnesses!”
Lionel’s men immediately brought in the three witnesses.
When the three men saw Zeke, they nodded firmly.
“That’s right. I’m sure he’s the murderer.”
“I remember seeing a scar on his arm when he was killing the elderly woman.”
“Zach doesn’t have a scar on his arm, but this guy does. He must be the murderer.”
Zeke looked at the three men and announced, “Faking evidence, especially for a murder case, will give you a sentence of at least ten years. Are you prepared to go to jail for ten years?”
