NovelEnglishChapter 80 How Dare You
The couple hurried over and exclaimed, “Quick, it’s him!”
They pointed at Emrys.
The man in the suit nodded and briskly approached Emrys. “Hello, Sir. I’m Derek Lindt, the president of the Jadeborough branch
of the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce. May I ask you two questions?”
The two plainclothes officers positioned themselves on either side of Emrys, ready to prevent any escape attempts.
However, Emrys had no intention of running away and calmly replied, “Go ahead.”
Derek asked, “Sir, I heard from this couple that you possess a supreme VIP Card from our organization. Is that correct?”
Emrys nodded.
“If you don’t mind, could you show me the VIP card?” Derek inquired.
“Feel free to take a look,” Emrys replied.
With that, he handed over the black card. Derek examined it carefully before nodding to the two officers beside him. “It’s real.
This is one of our supreme VIP cards. No more than twenty of them were issued in Jadeborough.”
Then he asked, “Sir, may I know your name?”
“Emrys Lund.”
“Emrys Lund...” Derek opened his laptop and typed the man’s name. However, the result showed no matching records. He
immediately exchanged a glance with the two officers beside him.
One of the officers quickly presented his identification and said sternly, “We are from the Jadeborough police force. We suspect
that you are involved in a burglary that occurred half a month ago. Please cooperate with our investigation.”
He hadn’t expected that a black card would cause such trouble.
The couple could not contain their excitement when they saw the scene unfolding.
It was now evident that this man was indeed a thief. The opportunity to lay their hands on over a million was within reach, and
they couldn’t help but feel elated.
However, they couldn’t help but think how foolish the thief was. Not only did he fail to conceal the stolen goods, but he also dared
to flaunt his actions so openly. They couldn’t fathom what was going on
in his mind.
Emrys said helplessly, “Officers, I would like to cooperate with you, but unfortunately, today’s not

possible.”
He had plans to visit the Sunderland family at noon to inspect that peculiar stone. If he were taken to the police station, it would
unquestionably eat up a substantial amount of his time.
Upon hearing Emrys words, one of the police officers snapped, “You dare to resist arrest?”
With that, they swiftly drew their guns from their holsters,
Emrys chuckled and shook his head. “I’m not resisting arrest. The person you’re looking to apprehend is not me. This black card
was given to me by someone else.”
“Someone gave it to you?”
The shop owner’s wife couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Haha, who would be foolish enough to gift you such a precious VIP
card? What a joke!”
Foolish?
Emrys‘ expression turned slightly peculiar, and he glanced at the shop owner’s wife. “I wonder how the South River King would
feel if he heard you calling him foolish.”
South River King?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The shop owner’s wife stopped laughing. However, she soon sneered and retorted, “What kind of joke is that? South River King
is a prominent figure. How could he possibly know you?”
She scanned Emrys from head to toe, a disbelieving look on her face.
The others also remained unconvinced. However, after seeing Emrys‘ serious expression, Derek decided to err on the side of
caution and called Osmond for clarification.
After finding Osmond’s contact information in the important client database, Derek called him.
“Hello, Mr. Langdon. I’m Derek Lindt from the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce. May I ask if you have your supreme VIP card
with you?”
“I gave it to someone else. Is there a problem?”
“Gave it to someone?” Derek’s heart skipped a beat as he continued, “May I ask if the person you gave it to is called Emrys
Lund?”
“That’s correct. Damn it! Did you offend Mr. Lund? Let me warn you, Derek, if you dare to offend Mr. Lund, I’ll transfer away all
the money I have in the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce tomorrow. How dare you offend Mr. Lund! Have you grown tired of
living?”
