Just as Andre realized someone was about to jump into the river, he could have stopped them in a heartbeat. But he didn't.

Mia was puzzled. Why didn't he stop them when it was so easy? But then, Andre always had his own reasons, ones that no one else could guess.

"Mr. Calder was just a distraction," Andre muttered. "I need to find out who's really behind this!" It was time for a thorough cleanup.

Hearing her father's name, Anya asked anxiously, "Uncle, what happened to Dad?"

""He's fine."

At the hospital, Anya stayed with Leo for his check-up.

Molly went with Mia to see the pediatrician for the little one.

Outside, Chad spoke softly to Andre, "You're not planning to let him fall into the hands of the police, are you?"

Standing in the hospital corridor, Andre's gaze was icy. "Too official, doesn't satisfy."

Chad picked up on Andre's anger. "If the cops find him first, I won't tell you where he is... but I hope you get to him first." "I will."
