In mere minutes, the only people left on the empty street were the unconscious gangsters and the guards.
Gabriel was scared out of his wits.
It was the first time such a thing had happened. Even his uncle-in-law, whom he regarded as his guardian angel, could not help him this time.
"G-Good evening, Captain Gilbert..." Gabriel gulped and smiled awkwardly in an attempt to butter Isaac up. In reality, though, there was no way he and Isaac would ever get along.
Three nights ago, he was chased by Jolene. Although Isaac saved him later on, he had been investigating the murder case. There was a high suspicion that he was going to clear that crazy woman's name.
Not only that, but Isaac even got someone to look for evidence of Gabriel selling Jolene's younger brother off.
Once the evidence was confirmed, he would get arrested.
How could Gabriel not panic?
Over the past few days, however, no matter how hard he tried to win over, Isaac was unaffected.
