Jared\'s assistant got to work immediately and ordered all the men he could get in touch with to go into hiding. The matter had become a nationwide issue, and things would only get complicated if even one among them got caught. Jared was already under fire, his relationship with Fredrick Clarke becoming his Achilles\' heel. He did not want to add more to his misery, not when the Intelligence was already keeping a close eye on him.

The only glimmer of hope for him was that there was no substantial evidence that could prove him to be guilty. But Jared knew that Maggie had the evidence with her, and it would be soon since the police would come knocking at his door. And he had to take precautions before that happened.

However, to his dismay, Jared did not even have the time to plan his way out of the fix he was in when the bell rang. Jared cursed under his breath. He was already distressed over the matter and he was now irritated on being disturbed.

One of the servants rushed to him, his eyes widening in fear as soon as he saw the glass shreds around his master. His pants were soaked in whisky, and the man looked nothing less than a raging beast, ready to kill anyone who came in his way.

"Mas...Master," The servant stuttered, frightened by the man in front of him.

"What?" Jared snarled, annoyed by the turn of events.

Though the servant had the sudden urge to run away from the room, he stood still, praying the Lords to save him. "Master, the people from the Intelligence are here to meet you." He stated without stumbling over his words and sighed in relief as though he just completed the biggest mission of his life.

Jared pressed his forehead in dismay and gritted his teeth. The dreadful outcome he so badly wanted to avoid had happened eventually, and he could not do anything to get out of it. Escaping was not an option for him as it would raise more suspicions about himself. And he might also end up being a fugitive on the run.

"Tell them to wait. I will come down shortly." Jared did not even stay courteous, giving out orders blatantly.

The servant scrambled away, sighing in relief after escaping the devil\'s lair. He had already assumed it to be his last day. He rushed down and stared at the three people who were looking around the living room, their eyes taking in everything as though they were searching for something.

"Master will be here in a moment." His voice caught the three people\'s attention, and they looked at him immediately. "Please take your seats. Would you like something to drink?" The servant asked but all three of them shook their heads and continued standing until they heard the sound of the footsteps, filling the living room.

"Deputy Chief Valerie Evans, what a pleasant surprise!!" Jared chirped as though he was genuinely surprised to see the group here. However, the three people knew otherwise. He was anything but surprised and happy. He was more in shock and fearful of their arrival.

"What can we do, Mr. Augustus? The situation forced us to come here." Valerie shrugged lightly as though it was not their intention to come here unannounced. 

"What can I do for you, Deputy? Please take your seats. Why hasn\'t the servant served anything yet?" He smiled courteously, unlike the way he had behaved back in his room.

"We are in a hurry, Mr. Augustus. There is no need to serve us anything." Ryder was the one to reply, and Jared gave him a look, his smile slipping for a moment.

"In that case, how may I help you?" Jared too cut the chase and got to the topic.

"We need you to accompany us. We need to interrogate you." Valerie stated, her face devoid of any emotions, and finally, the amicable expression on Jared\'s face vanished. His face scrunched up and he looked at the three people thoughtfully.

"May I ask the reason why I am being interrogated?"

"You might have already seen the news, Mr. Augutus. We need to interrogate regarding this matter." Valerie folded his hands as she observed the man before her. Though he was trying to put up a brave in front of her, in which he was succeeding brilliantly, she had a hunch that somewhere in his heart, fear had taken its place. He seemed too cautious and amicable towards them as though he was trying to paint a gentlemanly image in their eyes.

"But I am in no way related to that matter. I have already told you everything I know the last time." Jared smiled helplessly at them, trying to show his pitiful side but nobody bought it.

"We now have other questions to ask you, and if you remember clearly, I had already informed you that we would come knocking at your door again and again until the matter settles completely," Valerie smirked at him, and Jared had a bad premonition about it suddenly.

Seeing him hesitate, Valerie\'s smile widened. "If you are not involved in this organ trafficking mafia, there is nothing for you to worry about, Mr. Augustus. This is just an investigation. We are not accusing you of it and we will not do it until we find the concrete evidence against you."

Jared\'s eyes narrowed dangerously at once, and Ryder and Preston took a step forward, pushing Valerie behind them. They were ready to take him down if he were to attack them. Seeing their quick and protective action, Jared started chuckling.

"Deputy, I am willing to cooperate with you. There is no need for you to look at me that way. It breaks my heart to see the accusation in your eyes." Jared smiled sadly, showing how hurt he was but nobody cared about it.

"We better get going then. The sooner we finish it, the sooner you can return home." Valerie added.

Jared nodded at her and took a step forward, only for Valerie to hold her hand at him. He raised an eyebrow at her, wondering what she wanted from him now.

"Mr. Augustus, we need to speak to your assistant too. Would you mind asking him to come to the Intelligence?" Valerie questioned and examined him. However, there was not much change in his expression whatsoever.

"As you say, Deputy." Jared rang his assistant at once and ordered him as Valerie wanted. "Shall we leave now?"

"Surely," Valerie smiled at him before she walked in front while Jared followed her with Preston and Ryder on either side of him. Jared completely missed the smile of triumph on Valarie\'s face. \'Maggie, we caught the man. You can now finally return to Intelligence.\'
