Chad was thinking about Andre and his naughty wife Mia. Still, with Mia being pregnant, Andre should be able to relax for a few months.

Men loved to talk about business over dinner. Mr. Kendrick said, "Chad, keep your guard up and watch your back."

Coleen immediately shot Mr. Kendrick a worried look, "What happened to Chad?"

Mr. Kendrick explained, "A few days ago, the higher-ups sent someone to re-investigate Officer Rubin's case. He's Mr. Marlow's student after all, and he snitched on Chad behind his back. Bruce and I intercepted him right away. Bruce used his position to vouch for Chad's innocence."

Mr. Kendrick and Chad were father and son, so they should avoid suspicion. But Bruce and Chad had no connection, and outsiders didn't know about their relationship, so Bruce managed to intercept the situation.

They only investigated Officer Rubin, without touching Chad's position.

Chad had heard about this. He said, "In our line of work, it's inevitable to step on some toes. I'll personally go to the Cedillo family in a few days to thank Bruce for his help."

"Don't. With everyone watching you like a hawk, if you go and get spotted, you'll definitely be investigated." Mr. Kendrick said.

Chad listened to Mr. Kendrick's advice, "Then I'll just send him a text to thank him."

"Hmm, that way, even if someone comes to investigate, there won't be any issues." Mr. Kendrick agreed.

At the dinner table, Mr. Kendrick shared some work wisdom with Chad, hoping it would be of help. Chad also told his parents about what had happened to Molly and the Cedillo family fifteen years ago. After hearing this, Mr. Kendrick frowned, "So, Mr. Marlow could be a suspect in the case from fifteen years ago."

"He has no motive." Chad said.

The world of adults was complex and tedious. On the other side, the world of students was simple and fun.

Mia, Molly, and Leo always sat in the first row at school. Not because they loved to study, but because the back row required steps.
