Not long after Harley left, a child's cry came from the delivery room.

It was a boy, and his voice was loud and clear.

The nurse took the child out to greet his father, only to replace that he had already left. Eudora stepped forward and took the child from the nurse.

"Let me see!"

After a while, Thea was pushed out from the delivery room. At first glance, she subconsciously looked for Harley, but in the end, she was disappointed.

Eudora opened her mouth. What she had agreed on with Harley must be kept secret from anyone, so she stated vaguely, "Harley has something to do, so he asked me to take care of you. He will be back soon."

Thea smiled at her. "Thank you."

Eudora shook her head. "There's no need for such pleasantries between us."

She accompanied the nurse to push Thea into the ward. Thea was too tired after the delivery and fell asleep soon.

Eudora, on the other hand, sat by the bed and studied the tiny baby.

Such a tiny little baby reminded her of her own Sugar Bun.

As for Sugar Bun, she actually owed him a lot. After giving birth to him, Eudora left Rosaville City because of what had happened to Tyler.

At that time, Sugar Bun was still so young, and had been kept in the incubator all the time. As a mother, she had never taken care of him not even for a single day.

Just as she was thinking about it, the baby moved its foot a little. Eudora reached out and held it in her hand. She made up her mind that after this was over, it didn't matter what the situation may be. She wanted to make it up to Sugar Bun.

In the second half of the night, Eudora waited for god knows how long. Just as she thought that Harley was not going to help her, he finally pushed through the door.

The first thing he did was to go to the bedside and hold Thea's hand. Seeing that her eyes were closed at the time, Harley looked nervous.

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with Thea?"

Usually, Harley acted all high and mighty as the national hero, defending the country. However, when his wife gave birth to a child, he reverted back to the caring husband that he was. Eudora rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. "She's just tired!"

Harley breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the child on the small bed next to him.

"He is very healthy!" Eudora remarked.

Harley nodded and his expression looked a little unnatural. Although he had accepted that the child was not his, he would really treat the child as his own.

However, when he actually laid eyes on the child, there would still be a trace of frustration in his heart.

Back then, if he had confessed his relationship with Thea earlier, such a thing would not have happened. Then, this child...

Taking a deep breath, Harley grabbed Thea's hand again and murmured silently in his heart.

"I'm sorry."

When Eudora saw this, although she was anxious, she still left them some private space and turned around to go out.

After Eudora left, Thea was awakened by Harley.

"You're hurting me!"

Harley suddenly realized he had squeezed her too hard and let go of his hand hurriedly. "Thea, you are awake? How do you feel? Do you feel unwell?" Thea shook her head. "No, I'm fine. I thought you didn't want me and the child!"

Harley paused for a moment and said, "What are you thinking? I had something to do just now. I've seen the kid. He's cute."

Thea smiled. Indeed, Harley had been working too hard recently.

For many nights, he couldn't even have a good rest because of the cases. Looking at his swollen eyes, Thea stroked his cheek in distress.

"Darling, you've worked too hard. After you've settled your case, let's go back to Rosaville City and have another child."

Harley wasn't the only one frustrated, Thea was too.

The only person she loved was Harley, but she had given birth to someone else's child.

"Don't worry!" Harley shook his head. "You've just given birth to a baby. You're still weak now, take good care of yourself. We will have a baby in the future. By then, I wouldn't even allow you to rest at all." Thea nodded. "Okay!"

"Go back to sleep!" Harley adjusted the pillow for her and kissed the back of her hand. Because she had seen Harley, Thea closed her eyes and slept peacefully this time. Eudora waited for a long time outside the room before she saw Harley coming out.

He handed her a stack of documents. "These are the things that I could replace according to the documents you've provided. Here."

Eudora opened the file. It was a thick stack.

Harley, who was next to her, said in a low voice, "No wonder I couldn't track the illegal activities of the Nolan family. It turns out that they have completely changed their business model secretly. You probably heard that your father, Mr. Holt, and Malcom Nolan, came from an organization. Many people thought that the organization had long been gone, and the Nolan family had long since turned over a new leaf. "We were too naive! The organization was indeed gone, but the infrastructure remains the same. After the Nolan family changed its appearance, it is still operating as usual."

Eudora flipped through the pages bit by bit and felt shocked. It turned out that apart from the real estate project that the Nolan family had started recently, the rest of the projects were all nothing but a smokescreen for illegal businesses.

Eudora took a deep breath. "This is all up to the police. What I want to know now is who killed my father!"

Harley frowned. "According to your recording, Callum did it, didn't he? Yet I was there at that time. I saw with my own eyes that Callum was far away from Charlie, so it couldn't be him." Eudora held her breath. She had never been able to understand how Callum managed to pull it off if it really was him.

However, when she heard what Harley said, she was still a little disappointed.

She didn't even realize that she still wanted to stand on Amos' side even then.

"Oh! I see!"

"No, you don't!" Harley whispered.

Eudora looked up in surprise. She looked into Harley's eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Are you still thinking that it's Amos who instructed someone to do this?"

When Eudora remained silent, Harley continued, "Do you know why Charlie was bailed? Do you really think it was as what others have said? That Amos had used various means to accomplish this? Do you think it's possible? We police officers are not completely useless. It's impossible for him to take such a big move even if the leader was still around, not to mention Amos."

Eudora frowned, "So..."

"Before the police investigate everything thoroughly, we won't announce any details to the public. But public opinion can be changed by money...'

Eudora froze. "So you're saying that someone's trying to frame him?"
