His Domineering Lover
Chapter 996

Rose couldn't believe that the commissioner really took Kyler away. She was not happy at all but worried.

Was it really worth it for Caesar to mess with the mayor for her? The mayor did have a quite heavy influence in the city. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm sorry, if I had known that something like this would happen, I wouldn't have brought you here."

"Silly girl, you didn't do anything wrong. You don't need to apologize." Caesar affectionately brushed the tip of her nose.

He held Rose's waist and said to the people in the store, "This is my girlfriend. The man couldn't leave with his failure of pursuing my woman and that's why he said what he said." Rose was really touched. She didn't expect Caesar to say those words to prove her innocence.

No matter what angle you looked at it from, Caesar was better than Kyler. And the two of them standing together made a perfect couple, who would believe Kyler's bulls*it? There was now nothing but jealousy in the eyes of

the people standing around.

"Are we still having the food here?" Caesar asked thoughtfully.

"Since we are here, why not? Leaving now would only make us look suspicious." Rose pulled Caesar to sit down.

"I like your serious attitude."

"Sorry to keep you waiting. The dishes are here." The owner came over happily with the dishes.

Caesar specially opened a bottle of wine. Only then did Rose realize that he had just gone out to buy some wine.

"You literally drink wine whenever you are having food. Can't you just keep it off for once? You are beginning to look like an alcoholic to me."

"I'm used to it." Caesar had almost been soaked in wine and liquor for the past few years.

Rose frowned and said, "You don't have to attend so many social activities. Why do you like drinking so much?"

"I'll quit it in time." Caesar seemed unwilling to mention his past.

"Okay." Rose saw that he didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask more. They finished their meal quietly.

"Let's go back." Caesar escorted Rose home, but

this time he didn't go into the house with Rose.

"Where are you going?" It had already begun to feel strange to Rose that he'd leave the house.

"Go home and bring some things over. I'll be back soon. Wait for me at home." Caesar rubbed her cheek.

Only then did Rose relax. Thinking how nervous and reluctant she was when she thought he was not going to stay, she realized how important Caesar was in her heart already. "Well, I'll get some warm milk for you. I'll wait for you at home." Rose bent down and kissed him on the cheek. In her heart, she had already regarded Caesar as her boyfriend. Caesar's breath became heavy, "Baby, are you seducing me again?"

Rose's little face was covered with a layer of red blush. Every time he called her baby, his voice was particularly charming.

"I just want you to come back earlier."

"All right."

Caesar drove away, and Rose watched him leave. She had gotten used to being alone before he showed up.

After being with him, Rose almost couldn't stand one second without him.

Caesar actually went to the police station instead of home. He didn't wanna get Rose involved in this.

Kyler had been detained, and someone informed his family. Knowing the mayor was on his way here, the commissioner was so anxious that he paced back and forth in his office.

Different from Kyler's high-profile, Leland Fields, his grandfather, came in a rather normal and low-key car.

The commissioner personally greeted him. "Mr. Fields."

"Mr. Hawkins, thank you for your hard work." Leland was rather polite and gentle. He gave off the kind of aura that he was not here for his grandson but instead, came to sort out whatever difficulties the station had.

"Not at all, sir. I'm so sorry to have troubled you to come all the way down here."

"Well, my unfilial grandson did do something wrong, a minor mistake, didn't he?"

The mayor made his words quite subtle, admitting Kyler's mistake on the one hand while making it a "minor mistake" on the other hand.

Commissioner Hawkins didn't dare to say anything more. After all, this person was put in here by Caesar.

"Sir, please come in."

When Kyler saw his grandfather coming, he looked at Leland as if he were going to burst out in tears.

"Grandpa, please save me. Someone wants me to go to jail."

"You disobedient, ungrateful b*stard. What have I been telling you?"

"Grandpa, I know I'm wrong. Please get me out of here. I don't want to stay here anymore." Although Kyler's joint was put back in place, it was still in pain.

Leland said directly, "Commissioner Hawkins, I've heard about what happened, nothing but a mere bar brawl. And I'm pretty sure by now he's learned the lesson. How about, for my sake, letting my grandson

go?"

If it were ordinary times, Hawkins would've released Kyler even Leland didn't come here. However, it was not his decision to make now.

"Sir, I really can't make the decision on this matter. There's solid evidence for what your grandson has done and the victim has even come forward to say whether they are gonna press charges. My hands are also tied here."

Seeing the Commissioner's embarrassed expression, Leland's face became cold. "So not even for my sake?

"That's not what I meant, sir. It's just that... I don't dare to do so..."

"What? Don't tell me you are afraid of a pathetic girl!"

"If it were only a little girl, I wouldn't have led the team out to the scene myself. Your grandson... has messed with someone he shouldn't have..." "Well, that's for me to decide." Leland began to show his true colors.

Commissioner Hawkins was so scared that his head was sweating. Since Caesar had said that he would take the responsibility, he had to call him now.

Before he could get in touch with Caesar, Caesar had already arrived at the police station.

"Commissioner, a Mr. Peterson wants to see you."

"Sir, this is the one. Tell him what you want to say. I... this is really not something I can or want to be part of..."

Leland didn't take Caesar seriously at all, seeing that he was nothing but a well-dressed young man.

Caesar came in at a leisurely pace, and Commissioner Hawkins hurried to greet him.

"Mr. Peterson, it just so happens that Mr. Fields's family has also come. Why don't we settle this privately for now?"

Commissioner Hawkins only wanted to get this whole thing over with as soon as possible.

Caesar looked at Leland, "Climbing up the ladder quite fast, aren't you? Got yourself the mayor already."

Leland looked at this young man whom he had never seen before. He had no impression of him at all. Why did he talk to him as if he had known him long ago? And how dare he speak so arrogantly, knowing that he was the mayor?

"Young man, arrogance is not the best of virtues. Although my grandson is guilty, he deserves no such heavy punishments. The way I see it, we can totally deal with it privately."

"Name your price, as long as I can offer it, it will be delivered in no time. And as for you and me, we can certainly be friends. Trust me, you'll want yourself a friend who's the mayor." Caesar lit a cigarette and sat down as if there was no one else. He didn't take the mayor seriously at all.

A favor from the mayor could mean a step up right into the next level of society. However, Caesar didn't seem interested at all.

He chuckled and said, "Privately? Care to elaborate on that?"
