"Don't overdo it, Theodore, you just fell by yourself, everyone knows it," Ramon said lightly when he saw how angry Theodore was after taking a hit from him.

Just fell, he said?!

Theodore really couldn't contain his anger anymore. How could Ramon lie so boldly in front of these people? Was he not at all ashamed of that? How could he say that what happened just now was him falling on his own?

"WHAT!?" Theodore could feel his body shaking with anger. He then looked at the military police around them.

However, the military police seemed to ignore him, they didn't give any response, nor the reaction Theodore wanted.

"Don't you guys still have other things to take care of?" Damian said quietly, reminding them all to get out of there.

And without a second command, they all swiftly dispersed as soon as they received direct orders from Damian.

"How can you guys just walk away after seeing how Ramon Tordoff hit me?!" cried Theodore very angrily.

"We didn't see anything," one of them replied.

Theodore was completely at a loss for words when he heard this and it seemed that the entire military police force there agreed with it. They didn't see anything.

And it was only then that Theodore realized that the leader for this operation was Damian, who was the husband of Zia Tatum, and also one of Jayden's grandfather's confidants.

Damn!

There was no way he could win this debate. Thus, very annoyed and letting out the barrage of curses he could find, while shouting all of that in his heart, Theodore walked toward Jayden, ignoring Ramon.

"Where is my son?" asked Theodore in a quivering voice, because he was trying to contain his anger he couldn't act casually now. Jayden could have done something to Erick.

"Oh, don't worry, my guys have got him to safety," Jayden replied lightly. "You don't have to worry, you will meet him soon."

"WHERE IS HE?!" roared Theodore angrily. He then walked forward, trying to attack Jayden, but Adrian had come forward to protect Jayden.

Meanwhile, upon seeing this happening, the bodyguards who were along with Theodore also came forward to defend their boss, but Damian had stepped in to calm the current situation.

"There's no need to act like that," Damian said calmly. "I can give you a charge if you attack first." He reminded them.

"YOU WOULD INTERFERE BECAUSE I WAS JUST ATTACKING HIM, BUT YOU LET RAMON TORDOFF HIT ME LIKE THAT?!" Theodore couldn't accept this. What kind of treatment was he getting now?!

Only, Damian seemed to have had a tacit understanding with the two Tordoffs as he answered lightly.

"But, as my men said, I didn't see anything just now either." Then a smile full of malice etched on his lips. "You can sue me in court later if you feel this is unfair."

Theodore could only grit his teeth as he tried to remain calm, but the calm didn't come to him either, because right now the only thing he wanted was to beat up the two Tordoffs.

"Where is my son?" asked Theodore through gritted teeth. His eyes stared at Jayden very fiercely, as if he wanted to kill him right then and there.

"Didn't I tell you he was in a safe place?" Jayden asked with a furrowed brow, as if Theodore didn't understand the language he was using because he was too stupid. "I've asked someone to put him in the van carrying the other criminals."

In other words, Erick was now heading to the police station together with the other criminals, and this of course made Theodore widen his eyes in disbelief.

And of course, in the next second all Theodore did was insult Jayden and let out all the curses he had been learning for almost half a century of his life.

Meanwhile, Jayden just put on an innocent face and asked Damian, as if he hadn't done anything wrong.

"Why is he angry? Isn't the police station a safe place?" Jayden asked loudly enough that even Theodore could hear.

And of course, that 'innocent' comment made Theodore even angrier with him.

"FUCK YOU!"

"Language please..." Jayden replied. "You shouldn't speak harsh words. Now I understand where Erick's impudent attitude came from." Jayden touched his chin, as if he had found a solution to a problem that was bothering him.

========================

When the sun had risen and the sea was getting a little illuminated, reflecting the sun's rays on the surface of the water, Jayden got into the car, where his father was waiting for him.

"Dad?" Jayden called in a low voice. "What are you doing here?" he asked as he sat down in the car seat and leaned his back against the back of the seat. Oh, it feels good after standing around the harbor almost all night…

"I just want to see how your plan is progressing," said Ramon quietly. He glanced at his watch. It looked like he was going to be home late and had to explain to Hailee where he had been all night.

"I told you I'm fine," Jayden said as he closed his eyes, now that it was all over he was feeling very tired.

"Hm, good move calling Damian," said Ramon, praising his son.

He did not expect that Jayden would contact his mother's family, knowing the background of the Tatum family.

"Well, that's been on my mind for the last few weeks," Jayden said with a proud smile. His father did have his own way of praising, but what he said just now could be said to be a compliment as well.

"You shouldn't be here if the trauma is still bothering you."

Hearing that, Jayden opened his eyes and smirked at his father. "Would you let trauma get in your way if you were me?"

Of course, the answer was no and this made Ramon smile.

"Now get out of my car," he said, still smiling.
