Chapter 1840
[ 481 words ]
They were just trying to help, and she was a girl. He absolutely could not let her get hurt!
Just as Claire had a moment to breathe, she made eye contact with Rory James and Jace James, who were blending into the crowd.
A glass suddenly flew out of nowhere, striking the man’s wrist with brutal precision. The cleaver clattered to the ground.
Meanwhile, Sophia was tackled to the ground by Len, and Keegan continued wrestling with the disarmed thug.
“The cops are here!” someone yelled over the blaring sirens.
Keegan’s face paled. They had a single day off after their initial performances. If he got dragged into the police station, the reality show producers would definitely find out.
Macy realized the same thing. She shoved the man off Keegan and urged him to
run.
But with the police swarming the area, there was nowhere to hide.
Everyone involved in the brawl was hauled into the station.
The local police were used to this kind of mess. Quinton had bragged about running the streets, which meant he had connections. Knowing this, Claire immediately called Dane.
Dane found the idea of Claire ending up in a police station brawl oddly amusing. “Don’t panic. I’ll be right there.”
While Dane was on his way, Macy, too terrified to call her parents, phoned Caleb to bail her out. Since Sophia and the others were from out of town, they could only wait for Dane.
Quinton and his crew were regulars at the station. They slouched in their chairs, completely unbothered.
Quinton glared at Claire and Sophia, rubbing his bruised face.
“Officer, we got beaten half to death by these girls. You have to give us justice!” Quinton demanded.
Macy was curious that the scumbag was playing the victim. “You harassed me first. You couldn t keep your hands off me!”
“Who said that? I just thought you I were pretty and wanted to say hi! How is that harassment? You’re too sensitive, little girl!” Quinton scoffed. “I try to be friendly, and this guy attacks me. Any real man would fight back!
Quinton was a skilled liar, spinning the narrative to make it look like mutual combat instigated by Macy’s group.
Macy was on the verge of tears. Keegan’s face was bruised. What if this ruined his chances on the show?
“We can testify,” Sophia interrupted
loudly. “He harassed her first. She
was terrified, and he grabbed her shoulder. Since when does saying ‘hi’ require grabbing someone?4s a woman’s body just public property? If I say hi and grab your ass, how would you feel?”
Sophia was livid, practically jumping out of her seat.
Quinton sneered. “Sure, come grab my ass. I’ll take it as an invitation to—”
Before he could finish his vulgar threat, Sophia lunged, aiming a kick at his chest. The officer barely held her back.
“Enough! Are you trying to start another fight inside a police station?”
Officer Wade was an experienced cop. Seeing how worked up Sophia was, he shook his head and sighed.
