Patricia shook her head. "Nothing."

"You too?" Nicole furrowed her brows as she wondered who was good enough to stop both Max and

Patricia from getting any updates.

Patricia gritted her teeth. "Do you think they might have been..."

She made a gesture of slicing her throat, her expression turned solemn.

'Otherwise, why would they disappear without a trace?'

Nicole looked at Patricia. "Not likely. After all, they're quite tough."

"So what exactly happened?" Patricia murmured.

Nicole looked up at her. "Speaking of that, could it be that we started off on the wrong foot?"

"The wrong foot?" Patricia seemed puzzled. 'Aren't we just investigating the traces of those people?

How could we have gone wrong?'

"Yeah. We were only searching for those few criminals, but if they disappeared so quickly, there's only

one possibility - we’ve all overlooked one thing." Nicole's eyes turned dark.

Patricia kind of understood Nicole. "What is it?"

"Those people may not be the ruthless villains we thought they were. They might not even be habitual

offenders. They might just be ordinary passersby, hidden or living near the incident scene," Nicole said.

Patricia's eyes flashed in surprise. "That's a possibility."

Just then, Patricia's phone rang, and Max was on the line." Hey, Max."

"Mr. Johnston wants you to stay close to Mrs. Johnston. Also, Charlie will take care of the investigation

now."

"Mrs. Johnston thinks that those people might be hiding or living near the scene of the incident. Ask

him to investigate along these lines." Patricia relayed Nicole's thoughts to Max.

Max agreed and hung up, and Patricia put away her phone." Mr. Johnston has arranged for someone

to investigate this."

"Alright, let's wait for updates." Nicole sighed.

Patricia turned and left the office, while Nicole leaned back in her chair, deep in contemplation...

At the same time, Daniel and Gloria arrived at the ward as Tia and Stanley were tidying up after their

breakfast.

"Dad, Mom, you're here!" Stanley felt a little guilty when he saw Daniel and Gloria. "Sorry for worrying

you."

"We're glad you're fine. Take care of yourself, okay?" Gloria walked to his bed and looked at him as her

eyes watered instantly. What had been peaceful had suddenly become a crisis, all because of those

despicable criminals.

"Mr. and Mrs. Riddle, please help yourselves. I'll boil some water." Tia said as she took the kettle and

headed out.

"I'm fine, honestly. You don't have to trouble yourselves to come see me." Stanley looked at his parents

who looked a bit worn out. He knew they probably did not get much rest yesterday.

"How could we not come? Grandpa asked about you too." Daniel looked at Stanley. "But we told him

that you only suffered from minor injuries. Otherwise, he would worry."

'Yeah, we shouldn't let Grandpa know the specific details. He might not be able to handle it." Stanley

agreed as he did not want to worry his grandfather.

"Just focus on your recovery now. Nicole and Jared will handle the rest," Daniel said.

He nodded and said, "Okay." After all, he really could not help with anything else at the moment.

KNOCK, KNOCK.
