Chapter 1002 Arrested
“T-The Specialized Forces!” Daniel’s face instantly drained of color.
He had not expected them to catch up so quickly.
His subordinate was slightly more composed than him, immediately ordering the driver, “Quick! Turn back and drive away from them!”
Although the taxi driver had no idea who Daniel was, he knew who the Specialized Forces were.
Seeing the turn of events, he finally understood what was going on—he was carrying two fugitives!
Oh, no! This better not be happening!
In his state of utter panic, he was suddenly struck by a solution. He immediately pulled the hand brake before running out of the car with his hands held above his head.
“Help, sir! Those two men were holding me hostage!”
Daniel was so enraged he almost burst a blood vessel.
“That useless son of a b*tch! Go on, take over the wheel!” he ordered his subordinate, who immediately scrambled over to the driver’s seat from the passenger seat.
However, before he could complete the act, the men from the Specialized Forces had arrived and opened the car door, pointing their guns at them.
“You are both suspects of a serious criminal act! Please cooperate with us in the investigation and come out of the car with your hands above your heads!”
It’s over! Everything is over now!
Daniel’s vision immediately went black, and he passed out from the shock.
On the other end, Cecilia was leading Wendy out to the auditorium from the backstage.
Wendy was silently praying that the students backstage would not spread nonsense about her once they left the place. She turned back and noticed the distraught expression on Cecilia’s face.
Taken aback, she asked, “What’s wrong, Mom? What did Dad say?”
After Daniel’s yelling, a bunch of noises then came on the line, and Cecilia only managed to catch a few keywords indistinctly, such as “Specialized Forces” and “suspects.”
Despite having no idea what was happening at Daniel’s end, her instinct told her that something exceedingly serious had just happened.
And whatever it was, it probably had to do with the reason their cards could not work earlier.
“Something may be up. We need to go to the airport to meet your father right now.”
“The airport? Why do we have to meet Dad there? Aren’t we only going back next week?” asked Wendy, caressing her swollen cheek.
“I have no idea either! Let’s get to the airport first!” Cecilia was overwhelmed with frustration.
“B-But I still have class tomorrow…” Wendy started to speak but immediately fell silent once she saw the grim look on her mother’s face.
She had never seen her mother with such a terrifying expression before, not even when Aaron struck her earlier.
“What exactly is happening, Mom?”
“Just stop asking these questions!” Cecilia grabbed her hand and headed toward the auditorium’s exit with large strides.
Just then, the leader of the Specialized Forces backstage received a phone call.
Seeing the name displayed on the screen, he picked up the call at once.
After a few seconds on the line, the leader merely responded with a “yes” and waved his hand, leading his men out of the backstage.
Marcus was visibly puzzled. “Arielle, I forgot to ask you just now, but why are the Specialized Forces here?”
The Specialized Forces normally only attended to cases that concerned the aristocracy, major corporations, or other serious crimes. He had never heard of them appearing in schools before.
Arielle shook her head. “I don’t know either. Let’s go out and have a look.”
They both nodded and ran after the Specialized Forces.
Meanwhile, since the charity event had ended, everyone was finally checking their phones.
When they saw the news on Greene Corporation, not only were they shocked, but rage instantly shot through their hearts as well.
What an unethical and ruthless company! It should be closed down!
“Isn’t Wendy the daughter of the owner of Greene Corporation? Why is she still allowed to attend school here like the rest of us?”
“Look! She’s right there! Let’s go after her!”
