"Callum, there's been progress in the case you asked to investigate."
Callum's lips curled into a devilish smile. "Did you find the police officer who handled the case?"
"Yes, I found him. He's at the police station. Do you want to come over?"
Callum glanced at Grace and Xander and agreed without hesitation, "Alright, we'll be right there."
After ending the call, Callum said to them, "Either way, going there will clear everything up!"
Upon hearing this, Grace felt an unexpected unease in her heart. It was very sudden, and it made her jittery all over.
The feeling persisted until their car stopped at the police station, and she gradually calmed down.
Xander sensed her anxiousness and whispered, "It's okay. No matter the outcome, we'll face it together."
Grace said softly, "Thank you, Xander."
Callum watched them in the front seat and couldn't help but chuckle. He had never seen Xander so gentle. It seemed Grace had quite an effect on him!
"Xander, do you think this might be another mystery?" Grace had lost her confidence.
Xander tried to reassure her. "It's unlikely. The truth is often closer than it seems, and what we see now might be an illusion."
Just then, the doors of the police station swung open.
The chief of police, Timothy Hopkins, hurried over upon seeing Callum. He greeted him with the utmost respect. "Mr. Stevens, what brings you here?"
Callum was the son of a well-known political figure in the area. Even the mayor would pay respect to him and be afraid of offending him.
Callum politely greeted Timothy, then introduced Xander and Grace. "Xander, Grace, this is Chief Hopkins."
Timothy was a smart man. He could tell that Callum seemed to admire Xander, indicating the latter wasn't someone to be trifled with. Timothy's attitude became even more respectful.
