The situation escalated when Ethan insisted on hitting Axel to teach him a lesson for going against him, and Axel refused to leave Brooke's side, provoking Ethan even more.
Thankfully, the captain had Axel and Brooke sent out of the interrogation room and into a separate office to wait for his instructions.
Once they were alone, Axel let out a hiss and punched the wall, startling Brooke. She raised her head to see the officer fuming with rage!
"Officer-" she tried to call out to him, but he beat her to it.
"Tell me, how are you involved with Ethan Halton?" he asked all of a sudden.
Brooke rolled her tongue around her mouth. Ethan had already made it clear that they had something going on, denying it now might just cause her extra problems.
"I used to work at his office as an intern." She said.
"That bastard! He really is an animal! If I hadn't stepped in, would he have hit you?" Axel asked in disbelief.
