Chapter 1107 Exposing The Abuse Of James

He realized that he had to be pragmatic, so he immediately forced out an awkward smile. “Dr. Berry, please come this way. If I had known earlier that you had saved Old Mr. Oates, I would have definitely let you in.”

“I'll remember you. You really are a good sergeant,” Ashlyn said with a cold expression as she followed the sergeant into the prison.

Meanwhile, the sergeant was worried about Ashlyn discovering James' illness, especially the whip wounds on his body. What am I going to do then?

If word got out that he had abused the prisoner, he would be done for, especially since the prisoner had yet to be convicted and wasn't really a criminal in the true sense of the word.

As of then, James was only considered to be a suspect.

The sergeant, despite feeling unsettled, hid his emotions well.

Instead, he personally escorted Ashlyn to James' side. He didn't go anywhere else after that as he closely monitored Ashlyn's every move.

Ashlyn squatted down in front of James. Without any medical tools on hand, she could only take his pulse.

The moment her slender fingers touched James' pulse, she was slightly jolted.

It's so hot. He's running a high fever of at least thirty-nine degrees Celsius. Why is he burning up?

After a while, she withdrew her hand from his pulse and reached out to lift James' eyelids, checking his pupils.

Several minutes passed before Ashlyn lowered her gaze with a solemn expression.

Whoosh!

Before anyone could react, they looked on in shock as Ashlyn tore the clothes off James' body.

The sergeant immediately cried out in his heart, This is bad! Damn it! What sort of woman is she to rip off James' clothes just like that?

Ashlyn speculated that James had been tortured. However, it was only when she saw the glaring whip marks crisscrossing his bare chest that her suspicions were confirmed.

Her pupils contracted violently, and a surge of immense fury began to churn in her chest!

“Damn it! You tortured him! You even used a whip?”

Her beautiful eyes were filled with rage as she glared fiercely at the sergeant.

“Dr. Berry, we can't be blamed for this. He tried to escape! We certainly couldn't let him get away, so we had to take certain measures. Rest assured that we won't kill him,” the sergeant said, rubbing his hands together. After all, James was unconscious and knew nothing.

Ashlyn had never felt so stifled before.

She suddenly felt utterly helpless in front of the government officials of that country, and it was truly infuriating!

Why does trash like that even exist? How can he be qualified to be a public servant?

She clenched her teeth tightly. “If I ever find out you've been beating him again, I won't let you off the hook!”

She was so angry that she felt like her chest was about to explode.

At that moment, Joseph and Lucas, who had been watching from the outside, were also shocked by the swelling and crisscrossing scars.

How could this happen?

“I'm going in. I'm going to kill those b*stards!” Joseph raged and was about to charge in upon realizing what was going on.

Upon seeing the situation, Lucas immediately stopped him. “Joe, calm down.”

“How can you expect me to stay calm? That's my father! My father!” The usually handsome and sunny Joseph now had bloodshot eyes, the whites of which were filled with terrifying red veins. “Lucas! That's my father! How could they lay their hands on him? He's over fifty... Even a young man couldn't withstand that, let alone him... How did he endure it? He...”

Tears welled up in Joseph's eyes. His body was filled with pain and anger that he simply couldn't suppress, not even for a moment.

“Trust me. Ashlyn will cure him. She'll definitely find a way.” Lucas pushed him against the wall, his large hand gripping Joseph's shoulder tightly. “Don't make a scene. One day, we will avenge Mr. Field, but causing a ruckus now won't do any good!”

“Joseph...” Charlotte couldn't hold back her emotions any longer. When she saw the wounds on James' body, her tears flowed out like pearls from a broken string. She cried out in pain and threw herself into Joseph's arms. “Joseph... I feel terrible... I'm really useless. I can't save Dad...”
