Chapter 1209

"Alright, you've made a call, I'll make one too."

After speaking.

Dirk Carter took out his phone.

Eberhard Ross's mother didn't pay any attention to Dirk Carter at all.

With disdain, she said: "Oh, you want to compete with me in connections, huh? Go ahead, make your call. I want to see who will dare come and stand by your side."

He dialed a number.

The call connected.

The person answering was secretary Elbert Rivers.

"Boss, what's up?"

Elbert Rivers asked.

Dirk Carter said seriously: "I've encountered some trouble at my daughter's school, send someone over immediately."

On the other end of the phone, Elbert Rivers didn't hesitate and replied: "Alright, I'll arrange it right away."

During the call.

Dirk Carter didn't directly instruct Elbert Rivers on who to send.

But having been with him for so long.

Elbert Rivers naturally knew what to do.

He hung up the phone.

Thinking Dirk Carter was calling some gang members.

Eberhard Ross's mother looked utterly unimpressed.

She hugged her child, patting his back lovingly, saying: "Darling, don't be afraid. Today, you watch how mommy teaches the bad guys a lesson. In the future, at this school, let's see who dares to bully you."

"Hmph, my dad is an important official, just wait and see how unfortunate you'll be."

With his neck raised, Eberhard Ross boasted to Dirk Carter and Chelsea Carter.

Chelsea Carter, however, looked obedient.

With her dad backing her up, she wasn't afraid at all.

Looking at Elder Sutton.

She was overly attentive to Eberhard Ross's mother.

First, she brought water, then found fruit from who knows where.

She even specially found some snacks to stuff into Eberhard Ross's hands.

She completely ignored Dirk Carter and Chelsea Carter.

Clearly, she was an extremely opportunistic person.

About ten minutes later.

The sound of chaotic footsteps came from the corridor.

Immediately afterward.

A police officer walked in.

Behind him were another officer and two auxiliary officers.

Four people in total.

As soon as they entered, their eyes scanned around, landing on Eberhard Ross's mother, and quickly displaying a fawning expression, he greeted: "Sister Felicia, I'm here."

Seeing this police officer.

Eberhard Ross's mother, also known as Felicia Walsh, brightened up.

She quickly stood up.

Taking the police officer outside, presumably to embellish the situation.

After about three to four minutes.

Felicia Walsh returned with the officer.

Looking smug, she pointed at Dirk Carter and said: "Here's the one."

The officer, appearing in his thirties, nodded.

Walked straight to Dirk Carter.

His tone became harsh, and he commanded: "You, get up, come with me."

"Why? What's the reason for arresting me?"

Dirk Carter didn't move.

He didn't even raise his head.

The officer replied: "Why do you think? Is disturbing public order good enough? Hurry up and get up, why so many questions?"

"Who are you?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Before the officer could respond.

Felicia Walsh was indeed a helpful accomplice.

She boasted arrogantly.

Pointing at the officer, she said: "Listen carefully, this is the assistant director of Saguenay Street Police Station, Kirk Zhang."

"Kirk Zhang, I'll remember that name."

Dirk Carter nodded with a smile.

Then calmly said: "Wait a moment, my people should be arriving. Otherwise, if you take me in, it'll be trouble for you later."

"Don't give me crap, get up quickly or I'll be unkind to you."

Dirk Carter meant well.

But Kirk Zhang didn't care.

He pointed at Dirk Carter and warned him.

Seeing Dirk Carter still not moving.

He waved his hand.

Commanding his subordinates: "Take him back."

With the order given.

The police officer and two auxiliary officers he brought moved.

Coming to Dirk Carter's sides, without a word, they grabbed his clothes and hauled him up. Since Chelsea Carter was still in his arms, Dirk Carter did not resist.

In this scene.

Eberhard Ross clapped immediately, shouting: "Yay, yay, the police are catching the bad guy..."

Felicia Walsh triumphantly said, lowering her head: "Jun-Jun, remember this, no matter who tries to bully you, mommy will deal with them. Never be afraid, got it?"

"I got it, mom. I'll never be afraid, I can bully whoever I want."

Eberhard Ross replied, chin up.

Seeing Dirk Carter about to be taken away.

The farce seemed to be drawing to a close.

Just then.

Another set of chaotic footsteps sounded in the corridor.

Clearly, this time the people outside were running.

Soon.

At the office door.

A panicked middle-aged face appeared.

After entering.

His gaze immediately fell on Dirk Carter, who was holding the child.

Seeing the officers detaining him.

Sweat nearly dripped down his forehead.

Before coming, he seemed to have been specially instructed and only made eye contact with Dirk Carter for a moment, then addressed Kirk Zhang, the leading officer: "Officer, may I have a word with you?"

"Who are you? Why would I talk to you?"

Evidently, Kirk Zhang did not recognize the panicked middle-aged man before him.

The middle-aged man whispered something in his ear.

Kirk Zhang's face immediately showed a look of shock.

He followed the middle-aged man out.

After one or two minutes.

Both returned.

This time, not only was it the middle-aged man, but even Kirk Zhang's body was slightly trembling.

"Mr. Ca... Mr. Carter, just now... just now, I failed to recognize you, I... I didn't understand the situation, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

He stammered an apology to Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter waved his hand.

Saying: "Alright, you can go back for now, I'll contact you again."

These words.

Frightened Kirk Zhang so much that his heart was in his throat.

But he didn't dare say anything.

Took his people and left hastily, not even glancing at Felicia Walsh.

It's easy to imagine that at this moment he's sure to be extremely resentful of Felicia Walsh.

"Kirk, Kirk, why are you leaving? Kirk..."

Seeing this unexpected turn of events.

Felicia Walsh was dumbfounded.

Shouted several times at Kirk Zhang, who was "fleeing the scene," but he didn't even turn back.

"Is this the lesson you were talking about? Didn't seem very powerful."

Dirk Carter asked the somewhat embarrassed Felicia Walsh.

Felicia Walsh was furious.

With glaring eyes and flared nostrils.

She gritted her teeth and said: "Fine, just wait, I'll call my husband."

Dirk Carter appeared indifferent.

He said: "You can call, but I'll remind you that if your husband really comes, it'll be your regret."

"Ha, who do you think you are, the mayor? Do you know who my husband is? He'd be afraid of you?"

Felicia Walsh, provoked, pulled out her phone and walked out of the office.

Who was the middle-aged man that just rushed in?

Why did neither Felicia Walsh nor Kirk Zhang recognize him?

They certainly didn't recognize him.

Because they weren't on the same level.

The visitor was Bartosz Fletcher, the Director of Ronan City's Education Bureau.

An official of rank.

Receiving Elbert Rivers' call, he almost tripped while rushing out of the office.

Now, his forehead was covered in sweat.

A newly appointed official like him.

If the mayor was unhappy within his jurisdiction, how could he possibly be happy?
