Jensen Hayes’s expression turned cold in an instant.
Even the two police officers were montarily stunned.
This young guy, he seems like soone not to be ssed with?
But so what if he’s not easy to deal with? They’re just following protocol, and there’s indeed nothing wrong with the business card Daniel Lynch presented.
Moreover, they asked the hotel staff, and although both parties did have a conflict, neither side gained any advantage, and both had people who were injured.
Especially the injury Daniel Lynch sustained, it was at the part n care about the most.
Of course, more importantly, Daniel Lynch ntioned a na that happens to be the deputy chief of their departnt.
Taking the deputy chief’s cousin back, wouldn’t that be seeking trouble?
"Since everything’s fine now, I’ll take my leave first."
Daniel Lynch waved at the two officers and then turned to give Ashley Shaw a "you better watch out" warning look.
All of this was done right in front of the officers, blatantly showing off his backing without fear.
Ashley Shaw sneered in anger.
This is just how this world is!
She wasn’t strong enough, so she couldn’t do anything.
But just then, Jensen Hayes suddenly lifted his foot.
Daniel Lynch, caught off guard, tripped over Jensen Hayes’s foot and fell flat on his face.
"Mr. Lynch, are you alright?!"
The two officers quickly went to help him up.
After getting him back on his feet, just as they were about to question Jensen Hayes, they saw him take out his phone and say in a steady and cold voice, "George Jacobs, I’m at The Sovereign Hotel, co over imdiately with your n."
Hearing the na "George Jacobs," the two officers were stunned.
Simply because George Jacobs is their departnt chief.
Only Daniel Lynch didn’t know who George Jacobs was and shouted for the officers to arrest Jensen Hayes.
"This is attempted murder! What if I accidentally died from the fall? Arrest him! Arrest him imdiately!"
The two officers instinctively took a couple of steps forward, but in the next mont, they retreated a couple of steps.
"Mr. Lynch, our leader will be here soon, and you can speak with them then."
Inwardly, Daniel Lynch wondered, does this guy also have backing?
But looking at the way this guy is dressed, just a regular black T-shirt and black pants, he doesn’t look like soone from a wealthy family, nor like a privileged official’s kid, probably just knows so low-level leader.
Thinking this, Daniel Lynch wasn’t worried at all, and even gave a mocking look.
Aren’t we comparing backing?
Then let’s compare!
See whose backing is bigger and stronger!
Daniel Lynch pulled out his phone, telling the person on the other end to co quickly to The Sovereign Hotel, saying he got into so trouble here and was being held back, and the other side had called so people, he couldn’t get away.
After the call, Daniel Lynch crossed his arms, his face full of mockery.
Today, not only was he going to humiliate this nosy guy, but also take this woman away!
Originally, he just wanted to get so money from them, but now... ha!
Ariana Grant returned just then after dealing with her injury.
Although the spot where she was hit hurt, fortunately, the bones weren’t injured, just a bruise.
The hotel staff helped her massage out the bruise with dicinal liquor and applied a plaster, it now felt cool and didn’t hurt much anymore.
Yet as soon as she ca over, she sensed sothing was off.
Obviously, the officers were here, but Daniel Lynch’s expression was as arrogant as before.
And Ashley Shaw’s expression was even worse than when Daniel Lynch was harassing them earlier.
"What’s wrong, Ashley?" Ariana Grant walked to Ashley Shaw’s side, whispering, "Aren’t they taking this conman away?"
Ashley Shaw mouthed three words: "Has backing."
Ariana Grant instantly understood, clenching her fists in anger.
What about having backing? Does having backing allow you to act recklessly in broad daylight, lawlessly?
One of the officers spoke up at this mont, "Since the situation is a bit difficult to handle now, let’s wait until both your parties arrive before addressing it, please have a seat first, have a seat."
Trying to please both sides without offending anyone.
Jensen Hayes glanced coldly at the officer, his eyes full of ice.
Not offending anyone is equivalent to standing by no one, people like this are the most despicable!
He ignored them and walked over to Ashley Shaw and Ariana Grant, saying, "You two can go take care of your own matters, I’ll handle this. Or you can go find Jean, she’s in room 1502, you can hang out with her, she should be up by now. I’ll call you when I’ve sorted this out."
Ashley Shaw rejected without thinking: "How could that be okay? This is our issue, how can we leave you here alone?"
"Exactly." Ariana Grant said, "Don’t be fooled by being a girl, but if it really cos to a fight, I won’t back down!"
Jensen Hayes chuckled and said, "Why would I need you two to get involved? Don’t worry, nothing will happen to , they won’t dare to do anything to ."
Ashley Shaw knew he had called soone, but she didn’t know if the people he called were tougher than the ones Daniel Lynch called.
She couldn’t just leave like that, abandoning the person who kindly helped them.
She thought that if it really didn’t work out, she would just have to contact Lars Prescott.
Lars once said that he could help her settle sothing once, should she encounter any trouble.
She could use this opportunity now.
Of course, she could actually contact Elder Prescott; once he speaks, Elder Prescott would surely help settle everything.
But the old man is aged, and having gone through a heart transplant, she wouldn’t bother him unless necessary.
"We won’t leave." stated Ashley Shaw, eyes filled with determination.
Jensen Hayes lowered his gaze, saying, "I just didn’t want you both to see at my worst."
The two exchanged glances, puzzled.
"At your worst?"
"It’s nothing..." Jensen Hayes diverted the topic, saying, "Since you both can’t trust , then stay. Having two beautiful ladies worry about is my blessing."
Even while talking about two beauties, his gaze was fixed solely on Ashley Shaw.
Ariana Grant paused, the hint of gossip bubbling inside her.
This look, she hasn’t seen others cast such a gaze at her, but often saw others look at Ashley Shaw this way, instantly understanding that Jensen Hayes had an interest in her friend Ashley.
But seeing Ashley Shaw’s clearly tensed back, she knew she had started feeling awkward.
Ariana Grant understood Ashley Shaw; she was usually so composed, could handle anything with ease, and deliberately looked around, "Hmm? There’s only one beauty here, where’s the second?"
Jensen Hayes said, "It’s you, you forgot to count yourself."
Unexpectedly, Ariana Grant feigned confusion, "I counted myself, apart from , where else is there another beauty here?"
Jensen Hayes was imdiately amused.
"You’re really humorous."
"Thank you. Besides beauty, humor is my only virtue."
The smile on Jensen Hayes’s face widened, and the earlier gloom vanished.
Ashley Shaw knew that Ariana Grant was easing the tension and laughed along.
But she still had to bring the topic back.
"Hayes, don’t think that we’re like this, we also know so people. If it really doesn’t work out, you won’t have to face them alone, we can contact others too."
