Chapter 2446
Without any hesitation, Alan took the water bottle, opened it, and drank nearly half of it. He subconsciously turned his head around, and then he noticed something.
“Aren’t we heading to East Street?”
The driver smiled. “Nope.”
A chill rushed down Alan’s spine as he lowered his head to look at the water bottle in his hand. His vision started to blur, and he was losing his energy. “You-”
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell unconscious.
By the time Alan woke up again, he was stung by the strong light and squinted. He turned his head sideways and could vaguely see two people standing in front of him.
Cameron took the flashlight away and said, “Finally.”
Alan looked at the two people in front of him. He realized that one of them was the “driver” from earlier since he was wearing the same hat. He jerked up and shouted, “Who the hell are you? What do you want from me?”
Cameron placed her hand on his shoulders and pressed him back to his chair. “Calm down. We just want to talk to you.”
Alan was stunned. “Talk to me? What do you want to talk about?”
Waylon took off his hat and replied, “Let’s talk about the accident that happened two days ago.”
Alan’s heart skipped a beat, and it was only then he realized who the two people in front of him were. He refused to meet Waylon in his eyes as he said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about…”
Waylon put his plate number and camera footage in front of him. Alan’s face turned pale with panic, but he forced himself to calm down. “This camera footage doesn’t mean anything. I was just overtaking a car. I didn’t do anything at all.”
Waylon chuckled. “I didn’t say you did anything. Why do you have to panic?”
Alan’s palm was filled with sweat. “You guys brought me here without any reason. Of course, I’m panicked.”
Waylon walked up to him and stopped behind him. As he turned around slowly, he looked at him and said, “We didn’t bring you here for no reason. We have evidence.”
“What evidence?” Alan’s face turned pale.
Waylon leaned closer and said, “The one in custody now is your friend, right? According to his statement, you were the reason he knew the route accurately.”
“That’s bullsh*t! I don’t know-
“You don’t know what?”
Alan gnashed his teeth and continued. “Don’t you ever think you can fool me like that. I don’t know anything you’re talking about.”
Waylon fixed his gaze on him. “You don’t know, or you just don’t believe it?”
Waylon chuckled sarcastically at Alan’s silence. “Do you really think that your friend won’t sell you out?”
Alan continued to keep silent. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he was very
nervous.
Humans were distrustful by nature. Even though he deeply believed that his friend wouldn’t betray him, it didn’t mean that his friend could really keep his mouth shut.
When people had to make a choice between their own benefits and their friends, most of them would pick the former.
Waylon turned around and walked to his front, his body blocking the light in front of Alan.” Do you think that he will be released as long as the police can’t get any evidence? The truth is that he has messed with the wrong person. Do you think the Goldmanns will let him off the hook so easily?”
A surge of fear and panic washed over Alan. Even if he was not the main proprietor for the accident and did not have to bear any criminal responsibility after his friend sold him out, he would be in big trouble since the Goldmanns wouldn’t let him go so easily if they knew that he was part of the plan.
He took a deep breath and asked, “What do you want?”
A smile appeared at the corner of Waylon’s lips as he said, “The Goldmanns said that if you can give them the mastermind behind the accident, they’ll wipe the slate clean.” It was only then Alan knew that the Goldmanns sent them.
