"Well, even if the coffee at the police station tastes awful, at least it doesn't harm me. But I dare not drink anything from the Iverson household. Who knows if it might cause severe stomach issues? Or worse, maybe I'll get poisoned. It's just not worth the risk," Ralph replied with a cool smile, easily brushing off James' taunts.
"Mr. Thompson! My son's case has been closed. Your people released him! What brings you here again?!" Fed up with arguing, Lance's eyes were red with anger and embarrassment. He exclaimed, “You can't just take Charles away without evidence. I won't let you have it your way again. The Iverson family isn't something the Thompsons can mold and manipulate at will! I'm only extending courtesy to you because of the long-standing relationship between our families and because you're Wyatt Thompson's son. Don't take advantage of my generosity!" The police officers thought, 'Wyatt Thompson's son?! Our Captain Thompson is the son of Hatchybay's wealthiest man and Bella Thompson's brother?!'

"Ralph! You... Who are you calling a brute?!" Charles pointed at Ralph's handsface, his voice quivering with anger.
"Mr. Charles Thompson, you are currently under suspicion in connection with an attempted rape case. Please cwith us to assist with the investigation," Ralph stated firmly, cutting to the chase.

Before they even reached him, Charles' legs failed him, and he collapsed pathetically onto the ground.
Christopher pursed his lips to suppress a laugh, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.
Mortified, Lance wished he could bury his disgraceful son, “Quick... Someone help the young master up!" "Ralph! Do you think we know nothing about the law?
