My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1872

Quill agreed to go to the rooftop alone at Janet's request. The moment he arrived at the rooftop, he saw that half of Aaron's body was already outside the barrier. He quickly called out, "Aaron, we're just here to get some information regarding Mr. and Mrs. Ziglar's death. We are not accusing you of anything. As long as you cooperate with us, we will not do you wrong. Calm down and don't do anything stupid. You only have one life. Don't do anything that will make you regret."

Aaron sneered, "Sergeant Scott, you are stupid but please don't think that everyone is as stupid as you."

Quill immediately said, "Okay, okay. I'm stupid. Just come back down, and we can talk it all out, okay?"

Aaron added, "You're telling me that you've put in so much effort to track me down but not to put the blame on me? If I followed you back to the police station, who knows what you would do to me? I may even be accused of murder!"

Quill instinctively furrowed his brows. He thought Aaron was being too extreme, but he still persuaded him patiently, "We will handle the case according to law. We will not let the bad guy run free, nor will we wrong an innocent man. Aaron, you must believe in the law enforcers. Let's talk it over. Don't do such a dangerous thing."

Aaron yelled, "Don't lie through your teeth. If I didn't do this to attract public attention, I will only be at your disposal."

"Okay, okay. Let's not talk about the case. Can you please take a step back first? We'll talk it out in front of everyone, and I won't take you back to the police station, okay?" Quill was afraid that Aaron would just jump off the building, so he slowly gave in. "Aaron, even if you don't think that your life is important, please think about your wife and your daughter. If something happens to you, what are they going to do?"

As Quill mentioned his daughter, Aaron's eyes flashed a trace of reluctance, but it was quickly suppressed.

"My life is worth nothing. After I die, my wife and daughter will still live well." He roared as if he was giving himself courage.

Quill asked again, "Aaron, even if your wife has the ability to support your child, do you want your daughter to grow up without a father?"

Quill sincerely wanted to stop Aaron. Unexpectedly, Aaron smiled eerily and said, "Sergeant Scott, I didn't expect that you would still be this stupid after so many years." "Aaron, what are you talking about?" Quill was in a panic. The feeling of panic overwhelmed him which made him unable to think for a while.

"What am I talking about? How can you still ask that at times like this?" Aaron smiled insidiously. "Didn't you realize that this is a trap that I have set up for you?"

A trap!

Quill finally realized that he had indeed missed out on an important clue. If he had been a little sharper, he would have noticed the unusualness of the crowd's discussion, that Aaron and his wife were deliberately provoking the crowd. However, he did not manage to catch on that very clue.

Quill moved his hand and wanted to record his conversation with Aaron with his mobile phone, but he heard Aaron warning, "If you dare to record our conversation, I will jump down from here at once. I will make you bear a murder charge for the rest of your life."

"What on earth do you want?" Quill held his mobile phone tightly. He didn't like being the passive party. If he had reported the situation to Jefferson earlier, would things be different now?

If Jefferson were here, how would he deal with this situation?

With Jefferson's character, if someone threatened him, he would tell the person to jump off the building. He would even take care of the corpse himself.

However, Quill was just Quill. He was different from Jefferson. He wanted to ask Aaron to jump down, but he did not have the courage to do so. He just could not bring himself to say such words and bear the charge of being a murderer.

"Sergeant Scott, in fact, the person I wanted to trap is not you, but your captain, Jefferson Hefner. Unfortunately, you came instead." Looking at Quill, Aaron's smile became more eerie. "Go back and tell Jefferson that I indeed have returned to Chatterton Town on August 15th, and I didn't go home. However, you will never know what I have done in that two days. Perhaps I have killed someone and dismembered the bodies, but you will have to show the evidence to prove that it was me who has committed the murder."

As soon as he finished speaking, Aaron jumped off from the 28th floor. He looked determined as if he no longer had any attachments to this world. At the same time, he seemed to be avoiding something.

Quill was so angry that he punched the wall. "F*ck."

Aaron's incident caused a stir throughout the city in an instant. All the news websites and people on the streets were talking about it.

On the Internet, the most widespread rumor was that the police wanted to find a scapegoat to close the case quickly, which led to Aaron jumping off the building.

Because of anonymous comments online, the public dissatisfaction toward the Paramount Criminal Police Team flooded over.

Since the public could never find out the truth, it would be futile to explain at this moment. Relevant departments had decided that they must calm the public and stop the incident from exacerbating.

Hence, the superiors in the police force took action immediately. They suspended Quill and the officers involved and started investigating the matter. It all happened so quickly that Quill didn't even have the time to tell Jefferson what had happened before he was summoned to the headquarters.

When Jefferson arrived at the headquarters in Chatterton Town, it was already too late. The official statement had been released and Quill's team had been suspended for investigation.

This decision made Jefferson furious. He rushed straight into Harold's office, pointed at him and asked, "Have you ever thought of asking for my opinion before suspending Quill and his team? He's under me now. Anyone who touches him is deliberately going against me."

Harold had no choice but to make this decision. He told Jefferson, "Captain Hefner, do you think I want to suspend them? Aaron Ziglar jumping off the building has had a negative impact on the police force. If we don't deal with the matter properly, not only Quill but you will get suspended, and I may not be able to keep this position as well. Do you know how serious this matter is?"

"What's the big deal about being suspended? Do you only care about your position?" Jefferson was still in a rage. He continued, "Go on and suspend us then. Suspend me as well., and the whole Paramount Criminal Police Team. Then we'll see who has the capability to solve this case."

Jefferson had always been like this. Harold knew that it was impossible to face him head- on. Between the two of them, he would be the one who had to compromise. "This time, your subordinate was framed. Since things have already developed to this point, we have to calm the public first before carrying out the follow-up work."© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
