Brock didn't dare say anything to Thomas.
So, he found Luke and Selina even more intolerable.
If they had cursed him or resisted, their disobedience would've been noted down.
However, they didn't clash with him on the surface, and instead revealed their anger in subtle ways. Brock knew that it was impossible to make peace with them now.
Luke might be young, but it seemed that he had seen through Brock.
Brock couldn't back down.
His faction, his identity and his position didn't allow him to bend to two newcomers.
That afternoon, they got another case.
Luke went to Brock after reading the case file. "Sir, is the Houston Police Department allowed to participate in this case?"
What he really wanted to ask was, Are you not scared that something will happen again?
It was a case in Wolfkyle, which was to the east of Houston. A couple had been reported missing.
