Chapter 8 - Brian Gets Handcuffed In The Living Room
Officer Ramos stepped forward, unclipped his steel handcuffs from his belt, and gestured toward Brian.
“Sir, turn around and place your hands behind your back; you’re being placed under arrest,” Officer Ramos ordered.
“Wait! You can’t arrest me! I’m a partner at Vance Financial Holdings!” Brian protested, backing away toward the TV stand.
Before Brian could make a run for the hallway, David stepped forward, blocking his only escape route entirely.
Officer Ramos lunged forward, grabbing Brian by the shoulder and spinning him around against the leather sofa.
The click of the steel cuffs snapping shut echoed sharply through the quiet suburban living room.
“You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law,” Ramos recited.
Evelyn shrieked in horror as her son was hauled toward the front door in heavy metal restraints.
“Mom, do something! Call the corporate lawyers!” Brian yelled desperately as he was guided out past the American flag.
