"I met Alex Hodds. He gavea paternity report showing that he's Munchkin's biological father."

I succinctly answered his question, but this time, Tyler was rendered speechless.

Theo and Chief Royce rushed back to the hospital at night. Before boarding the plane, Chief Royce assigned his

men to track Alex's whereabouts.

After | left, the other party did not hide but instead checked into the presidential suite of Crown Hotel without

any fear.

| recounted what had happened this afternoon to the two of them. Chief Royce was unable to make any sense of

the matter in such a short period of teither. At this moment, he looked at the document in front of him and

covered his forehead, not knowing where to start.

It was understandable. Other cases involved money and lives, so the goal was clear. Alex's was far more

complicated than that. He demanded Munchkin's custody and left no room for discussion.

He sought not momentary pleasure but a lifetof revenge.

"I don't understand. He approached Wanda today, so can't we arrest him straight away?"

Tyler was clearly impatient now. Chief Royce shook his head at him.

"His identity is unclear at the moment. We also don't have direct evidence to prove that he's involved in the

case. We can't do anything apart from questioning him.

Besides, given this situation, he might not reveal as much to us as he would to Mrs. Grant if we question him

directly."

| understood what Chief Royce meant by that and knew that he was put in a tough spot.

| had already witnessed what Alex was capable of. If he refused to speak, then even the police could not make

him.

In this case, the police would only alarm him if they approached him. Rather than sending his men over, it would

be better forto go instead.

Everyone on the spot had previously thought of ways to investigate Alex. Knowing that Chief Royce was not

trying to shirk responsibility, the conference room fell silent.

After a very long time, Chief Royce stood up. "Thank you for providing us clues, Mrs. Grant. Be vigilant during

this time. We'll keep our eyes on Alex and inform you when we have an update."

| got up as well. "Thanks a lot, Chief Royce." | looked at his bloodshot eyes and knew that he had been working

really hard on this case and was considerably worried about it. Several of us got up and walked out of the

conference room.

| planned to let Theo go hto get a good rest and take a shower, but when I turned back to look, | saw Tyler

grabbing onto him. He hesitated to speak when he sawturning to look at him. "Theo, cto the toilet with

me," Tyler suddenly said, making all of us stunned.

Then, before Theo would react, Tyler had already pulled him away.

| looked at the two's backs and cast my eyes downward. | no longer had the strength to guess what Tyler was

trying to say behind my back.

| simply thought about how Theo and Chief Royce had not had their dinner yet after rushing here as soon as they

got off the plane.

Now that Chief Royce was having a break, Theo should get his dinner sorted out too.

| walked up to the vending machine and wanted to buy a sandwich to fill up his tummy first.

Watching the sandwich fall off the rack, | felt less nervous than before.

For sreason, | felt a little at ease when Alex spoke toabout custody.

Somehow, | seemed to believe his words. He viewed Munchkin with great importance just as | did.

He was definitely not the one who kidnapped Munchkin and would surely do his best to protect Munchkin for me.
