Chapter 451

Daniel was injured, but at the moment, he was too shocked to cry out in pain, only staring wide-eyed at everything unfolding before them.

After realizing who these people were, he was so riddled with terror that he felt as if his soul had left his body.

He didn't understand how it had become such a huge commotion. After all, he was merely arresting a student.

Why were there so many reputable and influential people involved?

Even if Daniel was the dumbest person in the world, he knew he was in deep trouble.

Leslie was wide-eyed too. His family was wealthy but not to the point of absolute dominance.

However, being born into money had given Leslie a certain level of sophistication. He occasionally stepped into Alnewgo's high-society salons, where he acquainted himself with some of the elite members.

People like George were revered as academic giants, while those like Jason belonged to the most elite circles in Alnewgo.

Even if Daniel knew these prominent figures personally, he had to lower his head obediently before Jason, appearing as humble as ever.

Plus, Daniel knew Jason personally.

Previously, his parents had tried many different methods to get close to Jason. Daniel's parents would feel honored even if Jason were to have merely a short, friendly exchange with them. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ FіndNovel.net

However, at this moment, Jason showed much concern for Quintis and Emily, treating them respectfully.

The situation dumbfounded Daniel. Who the hell were they?

Undoubtedly, they must have been individuals of extraordinary presence.

Daniel's expression darkened at the thought of their bodyguards carrying guns. He was still oblivious to Emily and Jack's relationship. Otherwise, he would be shaking in his pants.

At this moment, Daniel was lost, utterly unaware of what was happening. Why was there a crowd? Even the dean of Alnewgo University, George Trip, was here. This man was much more influential than his father.

Shockingly, someone addressed that influential man as the mayor. Could it be that Alnewgo's more powerful leader was also present? This sudden turn of events sent Daniel into a wave of panic.

His enforcement of the law was nothing more than a personal vendetta, but now, it had spiralled into deep trouble.

Daniel was worried he would get his father involved. He was screwed if they ran an investigation on him.

Daniel couldn't help but glance at his father, attempting to find some comfort from his gaze.

However, at this moment, Kristoff was in such a state of panic that he couldn't send any useful signals to Daniel.

From Jason's and George's enthusiasm toward Quintis and Emily, Daniel was sure the couple was a force to be reckoned with.

Kristoff regretted his recklessness deeply.

An average person would never forgive his aggressive behavior toward the couple, let alone individuals of prestige and influence.

Even if his deployment procedures were legitimate, Daniel violated the rules.

Daniel and Kristoff were screwed if the couple decided to take action against them.

Kristoff was sweating buckets at the thought of this.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and had no choice but to greet Jason, attempting to use Jason as an excuse to apologize to Emily. As long as Quintis and Emily didn't take action against them, he would do anything for them.

However, Jason merely nodded coldly and turned his gaze toward George.

After all, they were on Alnewgo University grounds. George, not Jason, was the one calling the shots here.

In fact, external law enforcement had no jurisdiction over an institution like Alnewgo University. As a deputy ministerial-level entity, it had a well-established internal security system, and external authorities had no right to intervene unless there was a major incident.

Kristoff almost wept when he noticed Jason ignored him. He had been denied the opportunity to give a sincere apology.

George, Emily, and Quintis chatted. Emily said slowly, "Mr. Trip, Mr. Grant, they have crossed a line today. Not only did he break the law and violate regulations, but he was extremely arrogant, even resorting to violence and illegal detention. No matter what, you must seek justice for this student!"

It was rare to see a well-educated lady like Emily be so furious.
