Chapter 973: Can I Go Home with You?

Before Tina could respond, the little girl in her arms, Poppy, was startled by the sound. She

tightened her small hands around Tina's neck, holding on tightly.

"Is there something you need?" Tina asked, her eyes fixed on him.

Kevin's expression was serious. "Thank you for saving Poppy earlier."

Tina, unwilling to waste time, held Poppy close and directly exposed Kevin's identity.

"I know everything about you. You've done very little for Claudia, and the information about the

lab was leaked by you. Considering this, I'll let you off the hook, but a thorough investigation is still necessary. Come with our people."

Kevin froze.

So she knew everything he had done.

As they walked out of the hall, Jayden approached to report. Everything was normal on Mark's end; the man seemed to have suffered some kind of shock. He wasn't speaking or responding, and they couldn't get anything out of him.

Tina narrowed her eyes. Someone who had even failed to kill Claudia wouldn't be so easily shaken by something like this.

"Take him away and keep him in solitary confinement," she ordered.

Jayden nodded and led the man away.

Once everything was arranged, Jared attempted to take Poppy from Tina's arms, but the little girl clung to her even more tightly.

"Can I go home with you? I'm scared here," Poppy said softly.

Jared was taken aback. "..."
