Chapter 1220 An Attempt to Guilt Trip Wynter
Wynter looked at Hazel calmly and asked “Who did you see?”
“Someone from the news. Are you really sure this stays confidential ?” Hazel questioned uneasily.
Wynter glanced at the audio recording device and disrupted the audio feed. ” You can say the name now. Who did you see?”
Clenching her fists, Hazel replied softly “One was Braxton Rowland from the local trading association, and the other was from the Southern Cascadia
Chamber of Commerce…”
Hazel’s revelation remained unheard by others. One of the investigators removed the buzzing headphones and swung the door open.
“This goes against the protocols!” they scolded with a stern face.
Wynter retorted calmly, “And according to protocols, you should be leading the investigation yourself.
“Considering its business practices and incidents over the past year, the authorities should’ve conducted a thorough inspection of Club Solstice. Why wasn’t that done?”
The investigators were rendered speechless by Wynter’s inquiry. At that. moment, someone argued indignantly, “There have been no incidents before. We’ve only learned of the situation!” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Perhaps. However, records found several reports from the same nightclub. I’m sure the officers in that area were aware of the situation and requested to be dispatched.
“Unfortunately, the cases were left unresolved, weren’t they?” Wynter countered
as she rose from her seat.
The investigator was stunned. In truth, they did notice the reports Wynter mentioned while reviewing the records.
“The same thing happened every time. Shouldn’t the nightclub be inspected for such consistent incidents?” Wynter continued.
The investigators felt uneasy at Wynter’s assertion.
Indeed, Club Solstice harbored deep secrets that warranted thorough Investigations, yet every attempt hit a dead end. Obviously, someone in authority had been obstructing further investigations.
Gazing at the investigators, Wynter warned, “Hazel’s silence guarantees her personal safely until the truth is disclosed. But that doesn’t mean she’s
walking away from her crimes.
“Likewise, you’ll face consequences if anything is revealed before the Special Unit’s arrival.”
Hearing that, some of the investigators exchanged shocked glances. At that moment, they finally understood Wynter’s prowess. However, they wondered if members of the Special Unit were as young as her.
Amidst her colleagues‘ stunned silence, Joanne remained calm and
composed. Fixing her cap, she locked eyes with Wynter and assured, “Rest assured, we’ll resolve the case.”
“Exactly. If the victim has adamantly refused the other’s advances, there’s no point covering for their crime. No one can escape justice, no matter how powerful they are,” the investigators echoed enthusiastically.
Wynter smiled at their determination and prepared to leave.
Just then, Hazel hurriedly pleaded, “Wait, you can’t just leave! I’ve given an important clue. Surely, that compensates for my errors and grants my release, right?”
Wynter merely cast her a cold glance and stated, “A despicable person like you should learn some lessons behind bars. You’ll get to leave once you know it’s wrong to leech off others.”
Hazel flew into a rage. “You tricked me! And what do you mean by calling me despicable?”
“I know wealthy people like you often look down on those inferior to you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t bring up my beggarly dad. Tell me, would you rather have him as your father?
“I just don’t understand why he chose to have children in such poor circumstances. Why bring me into this world if he couldn’t provide me with a
luxurious life? He’s as poor as they come
At that moment, Hazel burst into a haughty laugh. “Do you think you’re doing my dad a favor by locking me up? My mom passed away early, and I’m all he has. Instead of being thankful, he’ll probably resent you!”
