Keep investigating. Keep searching. If they found something, great. If they didn't... then it didn't matter. After all, those two illegitimate children would either never make it out of Caroline's womb or would be taken away the moment they were born.

He was acting suspicious. She had only picked up a few words-clues, waiting, answers, and reports.
