The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

So far, Rosalie was the only clue Merlin could find. He knew he needed to find Rosalie in order to solve the case, for she was the only lead to dig out other clues related to the Ten Thousand Armies.novelbin

Otherwise, he would never be able to solve the series of lynchings in New York. It'd be an impossible task, especially after Rosalie and Ten Thousand Armies departed from the United States. His failure would be the biggest shame in his career. As a police officer, he abhorred lynching in every form. It was the police's responsibility to crack down on crime, not vigilantes.

Anyone except the police did not have any law enforcement power. Committing private executions was a crime. Even if they punished evil and promoted good, they were still punishable by law.

Thus, Merlin was determined to find Rosalie. He was confident that he could find her as long as Kathleen wasn't given any chances to tip her off. Rosalie would not leave so quickly.

That was why he immediately told Kathleen after hanging up the call, "Miss Fox, I need you to take out your phone and put it on the table. You cannot access any communication devices while you are in the room."

Kathleen was inclined to agree at first, about to take out her phone. She could cut off the call with Charlie and lock the screen immediately as long as she tapped her phone twice. Merlin would never notice it.

However, she changed her mind after thinking about it carefully. If she agreed too quickly, Merlin might assume that she was overly confident in this situation.

Therefore, she pretended to be nervous and snapped coldly, "Mr. Tammy. I've always respected you, but please don't go too far! Do you have the right to restrict my freedom?"

Merlin noticed Kathleen's nervousness and immediately pounced at his chance. He said bluntly, "I suspect you have close contact with the terrorists. To prevent you from tipping off, I have the authority to limit your contact with the outside world! If you disagree, you can sue me in federal court right after this."

Kathleen insisted, "I want to see my lawyer! I have the right to speak to my lawyer!"

Merlin sneered, "I'm sorry, Miss Fox. You're now closely associated with terrorists, and have threatened the country's security. Under these.

After that, he warned, "Miss Fox, I'll only repeat myself once. Put your phone on the table, now! Otherwise, I'll take it from you by force!"

Kathleen gnashed her teeth,

pretending to be furious. She put her hand in her pocket and took out her mobile phone. While doing that, she pressed the screen lock button twice in a row. The call ended immediately and her phone was locked.

At last, she placed her phone on the table and glared at Merlin. "Are you happy now?"

Merlin responded with a contemptuous smile.

He said indifferently, "Miss Fox, I hope you understand your errors. If the evidence proves your cooperation with Ten Thousand Armies, I'll personally send you to jail!"

Kathleen nodded and answered

haughtily," M Lammy, I hope you can understand the consequences of your actions today. Later, I will file a complaint to the mayor about today's incident and make a public announcement to all the media. I hope you won't be dismissed before your formal retirement."

Merlin was slightly startled. He immediately replied in an icy tone, "Sure, Miss Fox. Let's see how this goes!"

At this point, Merlin was confident in his actions. He was making a risky move, but as long as he could find Rosalie at Fox Group, he would win.

After all, Rosalie's identity was inherently sensitive. She had never committed a crime in the United States, but given her previous actions in Tokyo, it was reasonable to call her a terrorist.
