Silas sighed. “After checking the security cameras around the villa, I did manage to trace her route but lost her once she reached Highland Street. That district's rather under-developed, and there are no security cameras there.”

“So, now we've lost all traces of her?” Shane narrowed his eyes.

Lowering his head, Silas nodded. “Yes, but I've assigned some men to inspect the area. There should still be some clues left there. Besides, she hasn't left J City. As long as we do a full sweep of the city, we're sure to capture her.”

Shane pinched his nose bridge wearily. “Sure, just go ahead with what you suggested. And there's something else I need you to do as well.”

“Yes, Mr. Shane?” Silas looked at him questioningly.

“I need you to check the footage of the security camera outside my office on the ninth of July, as well as the footage outside Jackson's office on the tenth of September.”

Those were the two days that he had mentioned he was going to perform the DNA paternity tests.

He remembered the ninth of July vividly, as it was the day he asked Silas to organize a health checkup at the children's kindergarten to obtain Connor's and Sharon's blood samples. The security cameras outside his office should have caught anyone eavesdropping on their conversation that day.

As for the tenth of September, he was in Jackson's office when Jackson expressed his surprise that he had the same rare blood type as Connor and suggested that he did another paternity test, to which he agreed. It was possible that someone outside the office had overheard that conversation as well.

“Is there anything particular about these two dates?” Silas asked in puzzlement.

Shane's expression softened as he explained, “Those two were the dates the children and I did the DNA test. I just did another DNA paternity test just now. Do you know what I just found out?”

Silas shook his head wordlessly.
