Officer Miller told Boyce to sit, “Tell me, who did you offend?”

Boyce took a seat and said, “I’m guessing it’s Declan Bailey.”

That confused the elderly man, ‘Declan Bailey?’

He had never heard of such a person before.

Boyce explained that it was Declan Bailey from the Bailey family of City B.

Only then did Officer Miller understood the situation better, “You offended Old Mr. Bailey’s youngest son? The one he spoils without any bottom line? The rebellious one?”

“Yeah.” Boyce lowered his gaze.

“You’re not a troublemaker, so how could that happen?” Officer Miller knew Boyce well. Boyce was not a competitive person, and he did not have any contact with Declan due to work. Also, Declan wasn’t a public official, so there wouldn’t be any conflict of interest between the two. It must’ve been for a personal reason.

Boyce did not hide the truth from Officer Miller either, “Remember the incident at the temple the other time? He captured my friend’s girlfriend. I’m investigating him for that. He probably found out and tried to frame me for bribery.”

Officer Miller felt dejected. Old Mr. Bailey had a well-established reputation and network, and he helped many capable individuals in their careers. It wasn’t difficult for him to crush someone.

“I’m fine. I can just quit this job,” Boyce said casually.

Surely, he had his regrets, but if he couldn’t continue working, he would accept reality too.

His words made Officer Miller widened his eyes. He couldn’t agree to what Boyce just said, “Do you remember what you said when you came under my wing? How dare you say you won’t work this job anymore?”

Boyce wouldn’t want to quit too, but it was a serious matter to get investigated by the supervision department.

Officer Miller was silent for a moment before he assured Boyce, “I’ll find someone to help.”

“You don’t need to spend too much time on me.” Boyce did not want to trouble Officer Miller.

This made the elderly man upset, as he felt that Boyce wasn’t serious about his future. He couldn’t help but lectured him sternly, “What are you talking about? How could you not care about your career? Where have your previous ambitions gone to?”

Boyce looked down, staying silent. It had always been his biggest wish to contribute to society and to make his existence purposeful. This wasn’t what he wanted at all, but since it happened, he can only be prepared for the worst.

He wasn’t going to tell anyone about this, especially not Matthew. He was preparing for his wedding now, and Boyce wouldn’t want to trouble him during this period.

“No matter what, we must do all we can to prove that you’re innocent and solve this case. Don’t show your pessimism in front of me ever again, you got it?”

Officer Miller was serious.

Boyce felt sorry for disappointing Officer Miller, who had so much trust in him, and cultivated him all along.

Officer Miller suddenly stood up and grabbed his hat, “I’m going to find out more about this case.”
