After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

She Paid The Price More Than Once.

"Are you sure this is the place?" Chief Robert asked as he examined the building in front of him with his hands on his hips.

"Yup," Candace came up behind him, holding her laptop in one hand, while she typed with the other. "According to the tracker, Ms. Leonica Romero should be here, but," She looked up from her laptop at the building and her face scrunched up in confusion. "This place looks too...dead." Robert nodded, agreeing with his partner. The building in front of them looked abandoned, no movement of any sort and it had a very dead aura around it.

It looked like that one house straight out of a horror movie.

Scary and pretty dead looking, but he couldn't continue standing here. If Leonica Romero was indeed in there, she could be hurt.

The sound of his phone ringing had Robert looking away from the building. He glanced at his phone, seeing that it was the rest of his team calling.

"Report." He said as soon as the phone was pressed against his ear.

"Sir, we managed to discuss the identity of Mrs. Romero's potential kidnapper."

"Give me a name to work with."

"Irene Romero."

His brows furrowed. "The illegitimate child? Why would you think that?"

"We were able to get a glimpse of the license plate and ran it. Turns out the vehicle was rented under her name."

"Good job. You guys should still maintain your current route, I'll place a call back to the station and have them send out some men to bring Irene Romero in."

Ending the call, Robert made a call back to the station, requesting for backup. Once he was done, he sighed. At least they now had a suspect to work with, stops Benjamin from tearing their heads off, Literally. "Come on, we're heading In." He turned around and gestured for Candace to follow him. She willingly did so, placing her hand on her firearm once she had discarded her laptop in the back seat of their vehicle.

"I take back what I said, Chief," She began as the walked into the house, guns pointed straight ahead. "Ms. Romero might just have asked out of curiosity sakes."

"And the location tracker?"

"Perhaps it malfunctioned."

Robert chuckled. Candace was no wuss, in fact she was one of the strongest on the task force, his second in command, but she, unlike him, tries her best to avoid violence.

"You're such a softie." He commented and she rolled her eyes.

"I'd rather be a softie and be able to sleep than a heartless robot like you."

"That's hurtful," Robert was about to add more words when the sound of someone whimpering from a room beside them caught his attention. "Check it out." He instructed after sharing a look with Candace. Without hesitation, she headed for the door and pulled it open, pointing her gun towards the figure that sat by the wall.

"Don't move," She hissed and the figure froze, raising its hand up in surrender.

"Please... Please help me!" The man in the room weakly begged. Only when she directed her eyes towards his leg, which surprisingly had two hole, did she understand the source of his pain.

She grimaced. "Chief, come check this out."
