Chapter 177: {GT- BONUS Chapter} Slip of Tongue

A little while later, Jaden had finally managed to get far away from the outskirts of the city. Then, Jaden suddenly stopped the car.

This immediately surprised Scarlet. After all, from the way that Jaden was driving, it was as if he was in hurry to reach somewhere. But now, he had stopped. Could it be that he had already arrived where he wanted to go to?

Before she could even contemplate further on why Jaden had stopped, Jaden spoke up. "Get down from the car."

"Huh?!" Scarlet was completely flabbergasted when she heard Jaden asking her to get out of the car. What the heck was going on with Jaden? After all, this was her car, and why was he asking her to get out of it?

She wanted to ask, but looking at Jaden's expression, she was immediately frightened. So, despite having many questions in her mind, she immediately alighted from the car after removing the seat belt.

The moment that she alighted, Jaden began driving once again. The speed was incredible, and it immediately attracted the cursing of the other drivers on the road.

Scarlet on the other hand was left behind, not sure on what to do. A little while later while she was contemplating on what to do, three police vehicles flashed past her one after the other.

The sirens of the police cars were on, and it was clear that they were chasing somebody. Of course, Scarlet understood that they were chasing none other than Jaden.

It was a crime for Jaden to drive at such an incredible speed within the city. And of course, the traffic police would not allow something like that to happen. So, they immediately gave a chase a little while ago when Scarlet was still within the car.

It was just that the police cars could not catch up with Jaden. It was not a matter of the speed that the cars possessed, it was just about the driving skills of the two parties.

While Jaden was able to easily overtake vehicles, left and right, changing lanes and so on, the police drivers could not replicate it at the same level as Jaden. Even though they were being given way by the vehicles the moment that they heard the police siren, it was not enough to be able to allow them to catch up to Jaden.

After all, it was not just a matter of the road being clear, instead, the bends and turns of the road also mattered. So, in just a few minutes, Jaden had managed to get rid of them, but due to the fact that they were communicating with those in charge of the traffic cameras, they were able to follow Jaden's movements.

When they passed the area where Scarlett was, they did not slow down. After all, according to the information that they had received, the car was still moving.

Of course, they had already investigated about the owner of the car, and they understood that it was the lady that belonged to the Johnson family. So, while chasing, they had already contacted Clifford, to inform him about the issue.

So, a little while later after the police vehicles went by, Scarlet suddenly received a phone call. When she looked at the caller, she realized that it was her father Clifford.

She did not hesitate to receive the call. And the moment that she received the call, Clifford's stern voice came from the other end.

"What are you doing right now Scarlet? I told you that you are not supposed to cause any trouble. But right now, you are recklessly driving within the city, and have even attracted the attention of the police.

Do you think that the police is our private force? It is true that we can handle some matters with the police as long as they are not that complex, but that does not imply that we can always do it." Clifford was obviously angry as he spoke.

Scarlet was rendered speechless upon hearing that. Well, she was not the one that was driving, why was it that she was the one that was being blamed? It was all Jaden's fault.

Despite thinking like that in her mind, Scarlet did not say that out loud. Instead, she remained silent, while Clifford continued speaking. Join us at m-v le mpy_r

"I want you to stop immediately, and explain to the police why you are driving recklessly in the city. Unless it is an issue related to your safety, you are not supposed to be driving like that!" Clifford explained.

It could be said that at this moment, Clifford was not thinking clearly at all. After all, if it was Scarlet that was driving, and she had somehow received the call, then, he was making a mistake.

By having her to receive a call while she was driving recklessly, that increased the chances of accidents happening. So, while it was true that he was worried that she might be involved in an accident by driving like that, he was still putting her life at risk.

"Dad, I am not the one that was driving. It was Jaden." After Clifford had talked for quite a while, Scarlet finally got a chance of speaking.

The moment that she said those words, there was a moment of silence. Clifford did not speak for a while, and neither of the two had anything to say for a few seconds.

"Why is he driving like that? Are you in danger?" Clifford asked with worry in his voice.

Previously, he had been called and informed that his daughter was recklessly driving within the city. At that time, the one that had called did not inform him about the driving skills of the person that was driving.

In any case, no matter how skilled a person was, by driving at such an incredible speed and making risky maneuvers in the city, this was considered as reckless driving. Something like this was only supposed to be done on the racing tracks, and not on a busy road like the ones that were present within the city.

But now, Clifford understood. It was true that Scarlet liked driving the car at a high speed, but it was not within the city. She usually did something like that in the outskirts of the city, where the traffic was low.

Additionally, since she was with Jaden, he believed that Jaden would definitely not allow that. And the previous time that that car had moved at such an incredible speed, it was Jaden who was driving, and this matter had somehow trended for quite a while, before the matter finally subsided.

"I'm not in danger. I'm not sure about what is happening, but somehow, Jaden is in a hurry to get somewhere. He received a call, and after that call, his expression changed completely, and he even ignored the police that was asking him for his-" Scarlet was explaining, when suddenly, she stopped speaking.

"You are trying to tell me that you had an issue with the police before this? Immediately tell me what happened!" Clifford immediately demanded.

Scarlet pursed her lips. She had somehow slipped when she was explaining, and had ended up revealing something that she did not want to. Nonetheless, knowing that this matter would definitely reach Clifford's ears, there was no reason for her to hide this matter.

So, she went ahead and explained what had happened. As for Clifford knowing about Lucas's actions, that was without a doubt. After all, it was Stephen who had investigated this matter, and it was clear that after he got that information, he would have already passed it to Clifford.

"Take a taxi and come back home right now. As for other matters, I will deal with them." Clifford stated after a moment of silence, before hanging up.

Angela on the other hand watched as the car suddenly sped off, leaving behind a dust of cloud, before it got onto the tarmac road.

She was not sure if she was to shoot or not. In the end, she decided against it. In any case, she would be able to find the two of them, considering that they were not going to run away.

Knowing what was currently important, she turned her gaze and looked at Lucas who was still screaming on the ground. After taking a deep breath, she approached him, while making a call.

She informed the emergency department to send over an ambulance in order to take Lucas to the hospital. And while waiting, she decided to ask him a few questions.

"Hey, can you tell me what happened here?" Angela asked as she looked at Lucas. She was a little worried, considering that the guy was screaming.

Of course, she had intended to take the first aid kit that was in the car that she had come with, but she had forgotten about that matter the moment that she confronted Jaden.

"That guy…broke my leg! He-he broke…my f*cking leg!" Lucas shouted in response, after he had realized that the person who had asked him the question was a police officer.

Angela was of course not happy with the way that Lucas used a vulgar language. Nonetheless, she immediately understood what was going on. It seemed that Jaden had broken this guy's leg.

She immediately regretted letting that guy go. Still, she decided to know what had happened. She had to understand the reason why there was a conflict between Jaden and this guy, who was supposedly a member of the group of people that were present within the warehouse that the murder incident had happened.

"Are you sure about that?" Angela asked with a hint of doubt in her voice.
