Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 243

The officer's face, already stern, turned even more severe. "Young lady, if you don't work with ys, we will have to arrest you."

Lydia let out a short laugh. "Arrest me? According to what law? What exactly am I being accused of?"

"Save it. You can explain everything down at the station."

A cold edge flickered in Lydia's eyes. "You're really taking me in?"

The man leading the group was Corbyn, known as the captain of the Fifth Division.

He smirked. "Just because you drive a fancy car, you think you're untouchable? The law's the law."

Lydia's car was impressive, sure, but that didn't mean anything here. Lots of people with expensive rides had landed in jail and never made it out. Look at Parker from Greenward Power, for example. He had the richest man in town backing him, but even he and his whole family were behind bars now. Compared to that, this girl was nothing. Derek and Terrance had already embarrassed themselves by failing to handle her. Their incompetence had ticked off Mr. Reeves, who suspended them both without hesitation. Today, Corbyn was determined to finish the job and bring her in.

Lydia gave a cold smile. "Alright then. If that's what you want, I'll go with you."

Corbyn grunted. "Yeah, let’s move."

Lydia stepped out of her car. Two officers moved in to grab her, but she slipped past them, face icy. "I can walk myself."

Corbyn scoffed. "Attitude, huh? Fine, move."

As Lydia got into the police car, she quickly pulled out her phone and sent a message. Corbyn was on her in an instant. "Until the investigation's done, you're not allowed to contact anyone. That's procedure."
