The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1479

"I met Alex Hodds. He gave me a paternity report showing that he's Munchkin's biological father.”

I succinctly answered his question, but this time, Tyler was rendered speechless.

Theo and Chief Royce rushed back to the hospital at night. Before boarding the plane, Chief Royce assigned his men to track Alex's whereabouts.

After I left, the other party did not hide but instead checked into the presidential suite of Crown Hotel without any fear.

I recounted what had happened this afternoon to the two of them. Chief Royce was unable to make any sense of the matter in such a short period of time either. At this moment, he looked at the document in front of him and covered his forehead, not knowing where to start.

It was understandable. Other cases involved money and lives, so the goal was clear. Alex’s was far more complicated than that. He demanded Munchkin's custody and left no room for discussion.

He sought not momentary pleasure but a lifetime of revenge.

"I don’t understand. He approached Wanda today, so can’t we arrest him straight away?"

Tyler was clearly impatient now. Chief Royce shook his head at him.

"His identity is unclear at the moment. We also don’t have direct evidence to prove that he’s involved in the case. We can’t do anything apart from questioning him.

Besides, given this situation, he might not reveal as much to us as he would to Mrs. Grant if we question him directly."

I understood what Chief Royce meant by that and knew that he was put in a tough spot.

I had already witnessed what Alex was capable of. If he refused to speak, then even the police could not make him.

In this case, the police would only alarm him if they approached him. Rather than sending his men over, it would be better for me to go instead.
