Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 56

 

Chapter 56 Freeing Louis

“These are my legs, and I can go wherever I please. It’s none of your business.” Dominic’s greeting sounded about as friendly as a bullet.

I was taken aback by his aggressive reply. I was just curious.

Too tired to bicker with him, I ignored Dominic and turned to Benjamin to ask, “My brother’s in the police station nearby. Do you want to go over now? They wouldn’t let me bail him out.”

To my surprise, Mitch spoke up instead.

“Let’s go, then. I have a few questions myself.”

 

I did not know why Mitch had come along, but anything was fine as long as they got my brother out.

We set off for the police station.

 

I was just here a couple of hours ago. This visit marked my third time meeting Xavier that day.

The policemen looked at the line of men behind me in shock.

“They’re my friends, and they’re lawyers. Could you let us in to meet my brother again? Just them is fine too.”

Xavier was easily convinced and let us in without further questions.

Outside the interrogation room, Mitch pushed the door open and went in. I had planned to join the discussion, but I was stopped by Benjamin.

“Let Mitch go in alone. You might hinder his interrogation.”

I clenched my fists in concern, though I reluctantly took Benjamin’s advice.

Xavier brought Dominic, Benjamin, and me to an adjacent waiting room and served us three cups of water.

I paced the room in worry.

Though I was well aware of Benjamin’s capabilities, I knew next to nothing about Mitch. I did not doubt his ability; I merely trusted Benjamin more.
