Chapter 161

Seeing me lost in thought, the little boy charged over and wrapped his arms around my legs, clinging on for dear life

“Hey there, buddy, how about we get you home, okay?” the female officer coaxed gently.

I felt bewildered and helpless as I looked up at Colin..

In that moment, my heart raced with panic. These two kids, they definitely knew me. The one who had been coaxed into trying to off Melody, and this little tyke right here.

“He seems to take a shine to you, you could take him home,” Colin stepped forward, shielding the view between Robin and me.

I felt guilty, afraid that Robin would see right through me.

He nodded obediently.

“What’s your name?” I squatted down to ask him.

His eyes were big as he stared at me for a moment before speaking up intelligently. “My name’s Abdul.”

I smiled, “What a good boy, Abdul.”
