Upon hearing Kate's request, Michael simply shook his head in response. Seeing the disappointed look on Kate's face, Michael said, "This is not something easy to handle.
You heard him, he has some connection with the police chief. So, if I hand the evidence on him to you, as long as it is submitted, the police chief might find a method of dealing it.
At that time, there would be nothing that you would be able to do, so, it is impossible for you to handle it.
But don't worry. I have my own methods. I can guarantee that in just a few days, the Kingsley family will be dealt with completely."
The main reason why Kate was asking Michael for the evidence was not because she simply wanted to get easy merits.
Instead, it was just that, she wanted to at least build a reputation for herself first. Until now, she had never solved any major case, with most of the cases that she had dealt with involving some petty thieves.
It was not that easy for someone as young as herself to be trusted with big cases. But, as long as she dealt with one, and did it well, they would definitely begin trusting her.
Even if they would not give her big cases immediately, at least, she would be able to handle more cases as compared to what she was currently doing.
Most of the things that she usually did nowadays was handling those small cases, going on patrol, or doing some paperwork at the station.
This was quite frustrating for her, who was aiming for rapid ascension in the ranks, but by depending on her own abilities.
That was why she thought of using this case as the boost that she so much needed.
But now, as she heard Michael's words, she thought that what he was saying was true. She had actually not thought much about it when she previously suggested for Michael to give her the evidence.
"Okay, as long as they are dealt with, there is no problem." Kate was no longer disappointed by Michael not giving her the evidence.
Instead, she decided to trust him. With his methods, he should be able to do as he had said.
Additionally, with his background, he should not be afraid of the Kingsley family. And, since Michael already had evidence against David, there was a possibility that he also had evidence against the entire Kingsley family.
Otherwise, he would not have the confidence of saying that within just a few days, the Kingsley family would be done for.
Thinking about the methods that Michael possessed, Kate was even more amazed by his background. She got even more serious about it his real background.
But at the same time, she decided to not continue investigating. She might not offend Michael by doing this, but who could tell if she might end up offending those behind him by doing the investigation?
It seems it would be better for her to not get too much involved with Michael's background. Otherwise, who could tell, maybe things might spiral out of control.
When Kate agreed, Michael shifted his attention to David who was still screaming on the ground.
He frowned slightly, before he went to one of the six that he had dealt with before, slapping him awake.
The guy who had been unconscious, suddenly being slapped, was so frightened the moment that he regained his consciousness.
And when he saw that Michael was looking at him, his face paled, as he thought that Michael wanted to kill him.
"Go and make that noisy guy to shut up." Michael said to the guy.
When he heard those words, the guy finally realized that the underground parking was currently filled with screams akin to a pig in a slaughterhouse.
Looking towards the source of the screams, he realized that his boss was the one that was rolling on the ground while screaming.
Despite not understanding what had happened during the time that he was unconscious, he did not hesitate to pick himself off the ground.
Even though he was still experiencing pain from the previous attack from Michael, at least, his condition was not that bad.
As he scrambled to David's position, he used his hand to grab David, before he used his palm to close David's mouth.
This way, only some muffled noise came from David's mouth. And with that, the noise in the underground parking finally disappeared.
Michael looked at David who was continuously struggling against the person that was holding him, while trying to endure the pain, before he walked over.
When Michael began approaching, both David and the person holding him down felt tense.
"You better not try playing any tricks for the next few days. Otherwise, I can't promise that I will not slap that head off your neck." Michael said while gazing directly into David's eyes.
Within David's eyes was nothing else but fear. At this moment, he was so much afraid of Michael.
It was to the extent that he was trying to suppress his own screams, to avoid making Michael do something else.
Michael had the guts to break his leg, implying that he could do more. Additionally, David had realized that this guy's background was not simple.
Or, there was a possibility that he was ignorant, not knowing how powerful the Kingsley family was. But this possibility was quite low, considering that he was associated with Kate.
Michael might not know about how powerful the Kingsley family was, but did Kate not know about it? Additionally, did he himself not say it before, that he was related to the police chief of Brenton city?
Considering that Michael did not seem to take his background seriously, there was only one explanation, his background was higher.
So, David decided, first of all, he would go to the hospital to deal with his broken leg. After that, he would see what to do next.
At the moment, he only thought about how to end the pain that he was experiencing. So when Michael said those words, he frantically nodded.
Seeing that David seemed to agree with what he had said, Michael did not bother with him any longer. Instead, he left together with Kate, heading for the elevator.
Michael had of course noticed that a few tenants had been attracted by David's screams. But, none of them dared to approach, maintaining a distance.
Michael did not bother with them, as the two of them went to the apartment, finding that Adrian had already prepared the food.
So, the moment that they entered, the food was served, and they began enjoying their meal.
At the same time, he informed Adrian to take care of the aftermath of the occurrences in the underground parking.
That obviously included dealing with the surveillance footage, making sure that there was nothing that David could use against him.
After all, even if David wanted to have Michael arrested, he would still need to have some evidence in order to have Michael sent to prison.
After all, Michael himself was not a simple character. With him being the owner of Sky Technologies, that alone was sufficient to be able to deal a lot of pressure on the Kingsley family.

Prime Medical Center...
This was the best medical facility in the nation, with several branches opened in the biggest cities in each province, outside the central province.
It had the best medical staff and equipment, making it the hospital that most rich people usually went to.
As expected, due to how high quality the staff, equipment and facilities were, the price of getting treated there was quite high, making it impossible for most ordinary people to be able to afford the services offered.
That was exactly why the main hospital was located within the central province, with the branches opened only in the biggest cities of each province.
Inside the VIP ward of the hospital...
On the bed inside the ward, David lay, his eyes on the ceiling above him.
He lay propped slightly upright against the white pillows, his injured leg secured in a rigid brace that ran from mid-thigh to the ankle.
Layers of bandages and padding wrapped the knee area, while metal supports kept the limb completely still.
The blankets had been folded back around the leg to avoid adding pressure, exposing the immobilizing frame and the IV lines running into the foot.
The monitors beside the bed beeped steadily, tracking his vitals.
The leg itself was slightly elevated on a cushioned support to reduce swelling, and an ice pack rested over the bandaged knee.
A nurse moved around the room, checking the drip, adjusting the brace, and making sure David remained as comfortable as possible while awaiting further treatment.
At this moment, someone walked in. It was a man with black hair and green eyes, with a muscular build.
He wore a charcoal suit that fit him perfectly, paired with a white shirt and a straight black tie. His polished shoes clicked softly against the tiled floor as he walked in, immediately attracting the attention of David.
"Dad, you are here!" David suddenly exclaimed.
