Esther drove to the location provided by Gabriel and parked her car at the bustling motel's entrance. She walked in, feeling quite familiar with the place.
She stood in front of a room at the end of the corridor and gently knocked on the door. Gabriel opened it, and Esther entered.
"Grandpa Gabriel," she greeted.
Gabriel slightly raised his chin and nodded toward a young, handsome man looking into the distance through binoculars.
"Logan Foster, International Criminal Police."
Logan, who stood at 1.8 meters tall, was dressed in a simple T-shirt and jeans. Despite the loose-fitting T-shirt, Esther could still see his well-defined eight-pack abs and an attractive V-shaped line on his lower abdomen. Most importantly, Logan had a superb physique, clearly someone who had been working out regularly.
"Logan, this is Esther, my choice for your partner," Gabriel introduced.
Logan looked at Esther disdainfully as she was dressed to impress and remarked, "She seems too delicate."
Before Esther arrived, Gabriel had showered her with praises, and now Logan couldn't help but wonder if Gabriel's assessment was accurate. How could a woman so pretty be his partner?
"Delicate?" Esther walked to Logan's side and sneered. "Wanna try?"
Logan reminded her coldly, "If you're up for a fight, we'd better catch the suspect as soon as possible!"
"Catch who?" Esther asked.
Logan turned to Gabriel and asked, "Why doesn't she know anything?"
Gabriel hadn't originally planned to involve Esther in this case. It was mainly because he had just received news that Bradley was going to the Sandersons tonight. Esther would certainly be there since it was Jacob's 10th birthday celebration. If the two of them happened to meet, it would be troublesome.
"She is a newcomer and doesn't know yet," Gabriel explained.
