PopularNovelIt was already late at night when we returned to the hospital. In the conference room. Chief Royce sat directly
opposite us in silence.
| knew he had gone to the villa in the suburbs and found that those were merely an ordinary gang of crooks.
Although they were able to save the children in time, there was no progress made in Munchkin's
case.
When he cback, he also learned that we had approached Alex by ourselves.
"How could you go to Alex alone, Mrs. Grant? It's too dangerous. There's a high possibility that your child is with
him. If the kidnapper has the upper hand, then it'll be extremely disadvantageous to you and your family!"
I understood that he was mad, and he should be.
"Since you chose to call the police, then you should trust the police and share all information with us. You
shouldn't act alone and take such risks."

"I'm sorry, Chief Royce. We had no choice but to act without permission." | sincerely apologized. "It's not that we
don't trust the police, but it's because Alex's identity is truly special. In order to know more about Munchkin, we
had no choice but to do so."
Chief Royce knew that we were anxious, but it was fortunate that we were safe.
Besides, what we said made sense too. We were not messing around either, so he stopped being so angry after a
while.
"What information did you get this time? | sighed. "About the sas before, but this time, | can tell that he
doesn't want anything to happen to Munchkin."
Chief Royce was clearly surprised as well. | recounted everything that happened in the hotel, and he quickly
figured out what was going on.
"In that case, Munchkin is worth something to him, but we still don't know what that worth is."
We shared the sthought. "Judging from his identity, Munchkin can probably help him obtain certain benefits.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been that nervous either. We know far too few things about him. "Also, the police
are also curious about one thing. Why did he appear at such a precise timing? It's almost as if he had been
waiting here for you at this intersection so you that you'd be left with no other options."
| frowned slightly. It did feel like that.
"Why don't you try recalling whether there are any other relatives of Munchkin who have a grudge against you?"
"None." | shook my head decisively.
Munchkin had been withsince he was a kid. Xander and Jerwere not high-profile people either. They
would dropa reminder if they had any enemies, but they had never said anything like it. "I know all the

Seeing Theo remain silent on the side and recalling past incidents, | believed he did not want to bring up the past
either. He would have long stated the clues if he had them.
He did not say anything at the moment. Surely, he was also confused by everything that was going on.
"I understand. Thank you." Chief Royce paused and continued, "Even if we can't be of any help to you in
handling Alex in the future, we hope you'll inform us in advance because we can at least guarantee you safety."
| nodded my head. "I understand."
After returning to the ward with Theo, | took a quick shower before standing in front of the bed.
Theo cup to embrace me. His hand paused at my abdomen, and the warmth of his body no longer made me
so anxious. However, | still found it hard to relax.
