The next day, Samantha cast away the distracting thoughts in her head and returned to work with Joanna
The situation with the Cowells was calm and no one came to find Samantha.
Adrian called Daniel early in the morning. He asked, “Has Seth been apprehended?”
Daniel answered, “He has. However, he insisted that Clara is the murderer and he isn’t involved. Moreover, the De Forrest family found a bunch of witnesses to provide him with alihis. We don’t have adequate evidence right now so we have no choice but to release him.”
The Battle Warrior Department did not have the authority to detain a person for more than twelve hours without adequate evidence.
“Also, Seth’s father, Tristan De Forrest, is rushing over to take him back to Northrive. If we don’t produce solid evidence, the boy will flee.”
“Where is Seth now?” asked Adrian.
“Swallowston Bar.”
“All right, I’ll go look for him,” said Adrian.
After hanging up the call, Adrian drove straight to Swallowston Bar.
Meanwhile, deafening music filled the inside of Swallowston Bar. A group of men and women were partying there.
Seth was inside, hugging one woman on each side as he drank joyously. He was utterly unbothered even though he knew Clara
had been arrested.
If one were to look closely, the women that Seth was hugging were actually Clara’s best friends. They engaged in all sorts of flirtatious gestures so they could leech off the wealthy man.
Seth assumed a heroic mannerism and basked in the joy of partying in abar.
Meanwhile, one of the women asked, “Seth, the Battle Warrior Department arrested Clara yesterday. I heard her say that Simon’s death is related to you. Will the department be suspicious and arrest you too?”
Seth burst out laughing. He took a sip of akchol and said, “The department already invited me to have a chat yesterday. However, they couldn’t f*cking produce any evidence. Do you think they have the courage to detain me based on just that b*
tch’s nonsensical talk?
“Also, the department respects the De Forrest family. They had no evidence so they could only release me. How is this matter related to me?”
Alcohol was famously known as liquid courage, and Seth clearly had drunk too much of it.
The wornan asked him softly, “Seth, tell me the truth. Is Simon’s death related to you?”
Seth burst out laughing. “I’ll tell you the truth but you’re not allowed to share it with others. I commissioned someone to
dismember Shimon’s corpse. But so what? The department can’t touch me. We’ll see if they have the audacity to do anything to ”
“Yikes, you’re sa impressive, Seth.”
“Yes, yes. Let’s drink, Seth!”
“You live up to the reputation of being a part of Northrive’s influential family.”
The women leaned into Seth and made sure to keep his glass full.
“Hahaha!” Seth laughed haughtily.
Yet, it was at this very moment that a loud gunshot was heard. The music that filled the bar instantly stopped and the party- goers on the dance floor froze.
They turned their heads and found the legate dressed in his black military uniform walking into the bar with more than
twenty subordinates. The party–goers were startled by these people barging in and quickly backed away.
These people immediately surrounded a stunned Seth as the women next to him shook in fear.
Adrian approached and beckoned at his subordinates. “Arrest these women.”
“Yes, sir!”
A few people stepped forward and pinned the women around Seth onto the table.
