Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

Chapter 360 Contact someone ? Cant do that they took my phone , Andrew said with a smile .

Then how can you remain so calm , Mr.

Lloyd ? Elsie sighed helplessly .

Andrew simply replied , Dont worry , someone will come get us out soon .

Elsie shook her head doubtfully .

Donald was the Police Commissioner of Jayrodale with considerable power and influence , and she was not even sure if Silas could help , given Donalds earlier dismissive attitude .

In his office , Donald immediately called Aspen .

Aspen , its all taken care of .

I have the security case right here .

When would you like to collect it ? No rush , Aspen replied .

First , tell me how youll handle this fraud case .

Donald laughed darkly .

As you mentioned , the case involves over 100 million dollars and priceless antiquities .

Once we hand him over to the judicial system , he wont see daylight for at least 20 years .

nas Aspen chuckled and said , In that case , Ill let you send him off for his free lunch as soon as possible .

Donald laughed slyly .

Aspen , Im a straightforward guy , so let me cut to the chase .

Ive been running around helping you with all this .

When are we going to reconnect as classmates and have a private dinner together ? Aspen laughed sweetly , her tone laced with teasing .

I knew you wouldnt miss the chance , but before dinner , I want to see Andrew in prison stripes , sewing away in a workshop .

And dont even think about touching anything in that locked case it needs to return to me exactly as it is .

Donald grinned .

No problem .

With the evidence in hand , getting rid of that guy is just a matter of a few words for someone like me .

After hanging up , Donald rubbed his hands together , his chubby face alight with a lecherous .

grin .

When he invited Aspen for dinner , he had not meant a regular meal his real plan was to book a suite and make it a private dinner .

At their level , they need not say these things outright it would come off as too vulgar and undignified .

Nonetheless , Donald trusted Aspen to understand his true intentions .

People like them did not need explicit words .

They were on the same wavelength .

As his gaze shifted to Andrews locked case , Donalds curiosity grew .

Aspen seemed particularly interested in it , which meant it had to be something valuable .

Scratching his chin , greed began to take over .

Without hesitation , he reached for the case and tried to open it himself .

+25 BONUS Chapter 300 After several failed attempts at guessing the code he scowled and called in one of his subordinates .

Bring me some tools and get this case open .

The officer hesitated .

Mr.

Warren , technically , this is evidence .

Were not supposed to tamper with it .

Donald slapped him across the head and barked , Dont give me that crap .

Im the one in charge here , and theres nothing I cant touch ! Reluctantly , the subordinate obeyed , but even after working on it for a while , the case remained sealed .

The lockbox , designed by Radiant Group for securing valuables , was nearly indestructible ordinary tools , and even explosives , would not do a thing .

Frustrated , Donald grabbed the case and stomped into the holding area where Andrew was being kept .

Listen up , kid , he sneered , holding the case in front of Andrew .

Be a good boy and open this up , and maybe Ill make your stay here a little less miserable .
