Upon seeing the men on black approaching Serenity's uncle couldn't help but laughed.
"Mr. Brown, did you call the police on the restaurant for not serving us a lavish meal and kicked us out?" His voice was light, dripping with sarcasm, and it drew a ripple of laughter from the York family.
At that moment Mr. Brown forced a chuckle, his smug confidence returning as he straightened his jacket.
"Oh, come now," he said, shaking his head.
"I wouldn't stoop so low. They'd be out of business before that would ever happen."
But the laughter stopped abruptly when the officers walked directly to their group and halted in front of them.
Immediately the leading officer, a tall man with sharp eyes, pulled out a document from his pocket.
His voice was firm but calm as he spoke.
"Mr. Brown, you are under arrest."
The words struck like lightning, leaving everyone frozen in shock.
