Theo was telling the truth. Tyler was there withat the time, and Sara soon entered the ward. These were all
proof.
"There's no problem with your wife's alibi. What we need now is your alibi." Chief
Royce did not give Theo a chance to take advantage of the situation and stressed again.
"What do you wantto provide, then?' Theo asked back.
"I may not be the child's biological father, but I've long treated him as my own.

Theo spoke my mind exactly.
"If you think I'm the suspect, then please provide evidence from your end."
"If we do, we will." Chief Royce's reply surprised us.
"We always look at the evidence. The evidence isn't favorable to you at the moment. That's why we're

His last statement sent my heart pounding.

With the email he received that resembled the match report, it was even harder to explain it all.
"Mr. Grant, I'm waiting for your answer," Chief Royce reminded when he noticed Theo's gaze.
"I need to see my lawyer."
Theo did not answer the question, and my eyes turned vacant.
Did he assent to it tacitly?
"Of course. You have the right to remain silent, but until a lawyer comes, you won't be able to leave this room.
The monitor and video recording will be kept on at all times as evidence in court. Please understand that."
