A moment later, Nataniel stopped smiling and gave a slight nod to the sheriff.

The sheriff immediately stepped forward and said sternly, "Mr. Lynch, please come with us!"

As Jacob was still holding his daughter, he suppressed the surging fury in his heart. He narrowed his eyes, glanced at the sheriff and his people, and said coldly, "Are you stopping me from having dinner with my daughter?"

The atmosphere at the hotel entrance was tense. The sky above them was thick with storm clouds. Suddenly, lightning flashed across the sky with a loud boom.

"I…" The sheriff was trembling. His face had turned pale.

Useless bunch of trash!

Nataniel grumbled in his mind. He rolled his eyes before stepping out and saying loudly, "Mr. Lynch, it is only a simple investigation. You wouldn't want to show bad manners before your child, right?"

Jacob looked at his daughter's big and shining eyes. He frowned slightly and quickly withdrew his angry and intimidating demeanor.

Then, he considered briefly and nodded. "Sure, I'll go with you."

Willow's eyes widened with shock. She walked up the steps and said, "Sir!"

Jacob pursed his lips and replied, "What else can I do? Should I wipe out these people in front of my daughter and leave Central Federation with her?"

Willow remained silent for a moment before nodding.

Then, Jacob looked at his daughter and smiled. "I have to leave with the police officers for a while. Stay here and be a good girl, okay?"

Heidi looked at him with her big eyes and nodded. "I'll be good."

"Jay, is everything alright?" Franklin asked as he reached out to take Heidi from Jacob.
