Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 386

Kemp's eyes were wide with panic as Bennett's true intentions finally dawned on him. A halo of despair

flickered across his face, but it was fleeting, quickly replaced by a look of dark cunning.

“What are you playing at, Bennett? What’s your deal with Galen, huh?” Kemp’s voice had a dangerous

edge as he glared into Bennett’s eyes.

Bennett let out a cold laugh. “Kemp, my deal with Mr. Wilburn? We're business partners at VitalAxis

Pharmaceuticals, kindred spirits with shared passions and aspirations. But let's not dwell on that. Let’s

talk about you instead.”

He then turned to address everyone in the room, his voice heavy with implication, “Our dear Kemp here

has been waiting for today's opportunity for far too long, almost too eager. Since the rise of VitalAxis

Pharmaceuticals, not only has he reaped a tidy profit, but he’s also seen another kind of hope, one that

has fueled his greedy desires. He had his son exploit our product line for his own violent ends, using

intimidation and bribery to coerce some of our regional sales managers into his pocket. Together,

they've been siphoning from VitalAxis, leaving the company hollow…”

Bennett was interrupted by Kemp, who, furious, leapt to his feet, pointing an accusing finger. “That's

total nonsense! What's your game with Galen, anyways? Standing up for him and tarnishing my

reputation with your character assassination!”

Bennett remained silent, watching with cold detachment as Kemp ranted and raged until he was out of

breath, his body shaking with indignation.

“Since Kemp doubts my statements, perhaps it's time to let the real authority speak,” Bennett said

calmly.

At his cue, the conference room doors swung open, and several solemn police officers marched in.

They approached Kemp, confirmed his identity, and presented an arrest warrant. “Kemp, you and your

son are under arrest for exploiting VitalAxis Pharmaceuticals' sales channels in illicit drug trafficking,

passing off counterfeit drugs, manipulating prices, and creating chaos in the pharmaceutical market.

You've also been linked to international criminal organizations involved in organ trafficking,

endangering public health. The amount involved is substantial, and we are here to take you into

custody!”

Kemp staggered backwards, stuttering in disbelief, “No... no, this can't be happening! We've done

nothing wrong! This is a setup! Don’t take me! I haven’t broken the law…”

The leading officer barked an order, “Take him away!”

Despite Kemp’s resistance, he was quickly handcuffed by two officers, He still shouting. “What about

my son? You can’t do this to me!” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Your son has already been detained and has confessed to his crimes. There's nothing left for you to

worry about. Now, think about how you're going to handle your own situation. You have the right to

remain silent, but anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. Take him away!”

The officer then turned to look at Claud. “Are you Claud?”

Claud, sensing danger, tried to slip away. “No... you've got the wrong person!”

“Claud, you are suspected of aiding and abetting Kemp in his crimes. You will need to come with us to

assist in the investigation. Take him!”

“Evil begets its own demise! Better talk to the police,” Bennett said sharply, his gaze fixed on Claud.

“You’ve been complicit in these crimes, beyond redemption.”

The police escorted Kemp and Claud out of the room.

As they left, Claud kept shouting, “Kemp, you promised wealth and glory if I followed you... You

betrayed me... Kemp!” Reąd at Drąmаոоvеls.com
