The police officer seemed a tad conflicted but eventually nodded, signaling that they'd keep me updated.

As they escorted Paul away, I naturally followed.

"Officer, what Jarvis pointed out about me before must have been directed by Kayla. I'd like to know what he has to say."

"Can I identify this person?"

Being directly affected by the incident, the police didn't make it too hard for me.

Especially since uncovering the mastermind behind Kayla was crucial, it was better to uncover the truth sooner.

Without solid evidence, the Patterson family wouldn't take the word of an outsider like me.

Upon entering the surveillance room next to the interrogation chamber, I finally got a glimpse of Jarvis.

He looked drained but noticeably more at ease, probably knowing his daughter was safe.

The police questioned him about Kayla, and he spilled everything.

"Turns out, some rich guy with the last name Patterson took a fancy to her. Once she got the money, of course, she didn't want me or the kid. It must be Clyde, who else would shower her with so much cash? I only went after her because I saw her bestie's posts about her being the other woman, flaunting her wealth! Her daughter couldn't even afford preschool, so of course, I demanded child support."

It wasn't Kayla who approached him but the other way around.
