"Yeah." Molly Harguez felt a little unsure. Had she said too much? Isn’t Young Master Peary supposed to be incredibly wealthy?
"Uncle, don’t give it to her." Upon hearing this, Nia Mitchell imdiately spoke up.
She certainly didn’t want to let soone like Molly Harguez benefit. Besides, what kind of good life had she ever enjoyed in her childhood? She had left the Mitchell household precisely because of Molly’s aggressive and overbearing behavior. Such a materialistic person simply didn’t deserve to be a mother.
Maxwell Peary looked down at Nia, strongly disapproving of what she said.
"How can you say such a thing?" With a helpless expression, Maxwell Peary indulgently reached out to stroke her hair. "Even if she has done many wrongs, you can’t act like this."
Maxwell Peary didn’t want Nia to be saddled with such a bad reputation. If one million could solve their problems, he wouldn’t mind at all.
Hearing his words, Nia pouted. She was clearly trying to help the CEO, so how did it end up being her fault?
"Do as you please." Frustrated and angry, Nia stopped caring about the situation. After saying this, she stood off to the side, not even glancing at him.
At this mont, many police officers arrived, each carrying a baton. After exiting the elevator, they started walking towards them.
"Who dares to openly assault the mayor in the hospital?" This was simply preposterous. This was D City, and soone actually dared to assault their mayor here. Such behavior was utterly reprehensible.
These police officers had received the news and hurried over imdiately.
The police chief stood at the very front, instantly spotting the several people in the hallway. The hospital director had described them earlier; clearly, it was these people in front. They needed to be especially careful with the man in the suit, as he was the one who had attacked. No, wait, he used his foot, the chief corrected himself, recalling the details.
"Was it you who assaulted the mayor?" The chief was sowhat incredulous. This man’s attire isn’t that of a common thug or delinquent, nor does he look like an ignorant person. Where did he get the nerve? Daring to assault the mayor in public?
Seeing so many police officers approaching, Mr. Mitchell and Molly Harguez jumped in shock. Molly imdiately distanced herself from Maxwell Peary.
"It has nothing to do with , really! It was that man who did it!" Fearing she would be dragged into this, Molly hurriedly proclaid her innocence.
The chief didn’t even bother to glance at Molly, his gaze fixed directly on Maxwell Peary.
"Was it you who assaulted the mayor?" The chief frowned, adjusting his police uniform and deliberately letting his badge show.
Maxwell Peary’s lips curved into a sneer. "Yes."
There was nothing to deny; after all, there were plenty of witnesses.
Seeing his deanor, the chief was imdiately filled with rage. Arrogant. Too damn arrogant! This man... setting aside the cri he committed, even if he were innocent and just walking down the street, he has the kind of face that makes people want to teach him a lesson. In D City, no matter who he is, he’d better be careful. I’m no pushover. The Mafia and Bussiness World... is there anything I don’t know about them? This guy is probably an outsider.
"What’s your na?" The chief asked cautiously, afraid the other party might be so important figure he didn’t recognize.
"Maxwell Peary," he replied with a smile. I’d like to see how this man reacts when he hears these three words.
But... there was no reaction.
"Damn it! You dare assault the mayor?! n, get him!"
