    Rowan looked at her disapprovingly as she set her coffee aside. Just as he was about to speak, the


    phone in his pocket rang. Rowan nced at the caller ID and signaled at Nicole to hold for a moment.


    Nicole raised her eyebrows as she watched Rowan’s retreating figure. Nevertheless, no emotions


    could be seen in her eyes. Rowan ended his call very quickly and returned. He had a slight frown; it


    was as if he was thinking about something. “Nicole, I’ve got some errands to run. I don’t think I can


    make it back to bid you goodbye. I’ll get someone to watch over your patientter.” ; Nicole did not


    have any objections, so she nodded understandingly. Rowan stared at Nicole; a hint of unusual


    emotion could be seen in his eyes. He sighed, “Who knows when I’ll be seeing you again?”


    Nicole met his somewhat gloomy eyes when she heard him speak. Her voice was calm, “I’m currently

    in San Joto. If you wish to see me, you can hit me up any time.” Rowan widened his eyes, “Why didn’t


    you say so! Bye!” Without any hesitation, he walked out the door. He strode toward the Cuckoo and


    gave Nicole


    a backhanded wave.


    Nicole smiled as she watched his back.


    Shawn was currently busy investigating something. He looked at the information in front of him with


    confusion.


    As per Harvey’s request, he was investigating Nicole’s records from when she was in Great Oak. He


    gazed deeply at the ordinary-looking records. The more ordinary something looks, the darker the


    secrets they hide. He skimmed through the information. Initially, he truly believed that Nicole was not


    someone out of the ordinary. However, now that he was presented with such information, he felt like


    something was amiss.


    From the way Christo treated Nicole to the way Harvey unbridledly made such a request, all of these


    incidents befuddled Shawn.


    He grabbed his phone and gave Harvey a call. When the line connected, a cold voice sounded from


    the other end.


    “What’s the matter?”


    Shawn frowned. He immediately sensed that Harvey was not in a good mood. Regardless, he still had


    to inform him of the findings from his investigation.


    “I’ve seen all of Nicole’s records in Great Oak. I didn’t miss anything, but…”


    Harvey squinted slightly. He was sitting in the middle of a worn-out ward. He stared at the pale yellow


    wallpaper; it used to look cozy but was now tattered and had light mildew stains.


    Across Harvey was a frail middle-aged man with lifeless eyes. The man was curled at the end of his


    bed and did not look at Harvey, who was sitting beside him. He was but looking at the sky outside his


    window.


    Harvey stared at him and asked softly, “But what?”


    Shawn gritted his teeth before continuing, “It seems a little too ordinary; I’ve got a hunch that it isn’t


    authentic.”


    ‘Someone must have modified Nicole’s records,’ he thought.


    Harvey lifted his eyes to meet Shawn’s as if he were aware of it. He chuckled, “Is that so? Who do you


    think did it?”


    ‘Since Shawn is bringing this up in front of me, he must have some suspicions.’ he thought.


    As expected, Shawn paused for a moment after hearing his question. He then said with some struggle,


    “Harvey, all of these clues are pointing to—”.


    “The Ellison family.”
