Wooing My Ex-Wife

Cedrick narrowed his eyes as rage bubbled in his heart.

However, when he saw Craig coming forward to greet him, he put on a mocking expression.

“Why are you here so early in the morning, Mr. Jenson?” With a smile, Craig swiftly arrived before Cedrick and nodded politely.

Cedrick glanced at Charles and uttered casually, “Nico received a tip. Apparently, Charles illegally crossed the national border during the past year. I’ve decided to apprehend him personally as it’s rare to have evidence of his wrongdoing.”

Craig’s smile froze slightly. “Illegally crossing the national border? That sounds like an international case, Mr. Jenson. Shouldn’t you be investigating the matter with foreign institutions?”

“You’re right. However, Charles and I are old friends. It’s been a while since we met, so I’ll bring him to the secret interrogation room first to grill him. It’ll be the perfect warmup for him.”

The edges of Craig’s lips curved upward again. “You’re the boss of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. You don’t need to tell me who you plan to question.”

Cedrick glanced at Craig indifferently. “You’re the leader of the Newton family and Charles’ older brother, so I thought I should let you know.”

“Sure.” Craig lowered his head respectfully.

Without delay, Cedrick sauntered toward Charles, who was kneeling unsteadily. Tutting, he remarked, “What did he do wrong? Why is he already beaten up before I interrogate him?”

Craig’s expression remained unchanged. “He broke the family rules, so I punished him. I whipped him at few times and forced him to kneel here briefly. It won’t kill him.”

Silently, Cedrick approached Charles with his hands in his pockets.

Charles was reaching his limit as he aimed his blurry vision at Cedrick before looking at Craig.

Glowering, he spoke in a guilty tone. “What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Jenson?”

Cedrick didn’t say a word while Nico explained, “You committed a felony by illegally crossing the national border. Let’s go. We’ll bring you to the interrogation room you’re most familiar with.”
