Chapter 298

Bryce fidgeted with his fingers, squinting slightly, the depth of his eyes concealing emotions difficult to decipher. Pulling out his smartphone, he shot a text to one of his subordinates: "Dig up the prenatal check-up reports of Whitney from three years ago. And keep an eye on Ludwik's mansion."
