Chapter 1086
Ryan interrogated Lana for half an hour, but she denied all of the charges and requested a lawyer.
Technically speaking, she would have a chance to get a lawyer to defend her for every crime.
However, Ryan would not let Lana get the chance.
The moment he walked out of the custodial ward, his colleague received Jeremy’s phone call.
After speaking for a while, the man told Ryan, “He wants to know who are the people inside the Stygian Johnson Gang.”
Ryan nodded, to which the man nodded back to show that he understood.
Jeremy was sitting alone in the cafe as he basked in the light of the sunset. He looked at the people walking past the window before looking away slowly.
There was a flight ticket to somewhere far away next to the steaming coffee he had in front of him.
Suddenly, he heard a ding and saw someone walking upstairs after pushing the door of the cafe.
Not long ago, Jeremy had just finished talking to his colleagues from Interpol. His colleague told him that the commissioner who managed to get into the Stygian Johnson Gang would come to see him in the cafe now.
Jeremy looked at the stairs and saw the man who was now married to the love of his life—Ryan Jones.
Jealousy arose in his eyes, but he suppressed it quickly.
Jeremy stood up as he looked at Ryan who was approaching him. He was surprised, but at the same time, he remained calm. “I didn’t expect it to be you.”
Ryan smiled politely. “I thought you’d punch me in the face and teach me a lesson for stealing your favorite woman.”
He turned his face away, not wanting anyone else aside from Madeline to see this side of him that was crying so weakly.
“I don’t expect you to treat the three children like you’re their father, but the least you can do is not let them feel any grievances, especially my daughter Lillian,” Jeremy said and looked at Ryan solemnly.
“Ryan, I hope you can agree to fulfill my last wish as their father.”
Ryan’s expression became grim after he heard what Jeremy said.
“Before I came, I already expected you to make a decision like this. So, before that, I’ve prepared a present for you.”
Ryan handed a car key to Jeremy.
“Go down and have a look. This is the last thing I’m able to do for you.”
