The moment she saw Trevor Gray, the police chief of Bluhm, step out of the police car, Paige was shocked.
Why would the chief handle a trivial matter?
Though she was still confused, she looked at Marco and Loraine as if she had already won.
“Look! The police chief is here in person. In
Bluhm, even he respects my father. You two are in big trouble!”
Eaton was also quite surprised. He was well aware that his relationship with Trevor wasn’t strong enough to
warrant the latter's support for such a trivial matter.
Regardless, in front of the public, he played along with his daughter's words. He straightened his clothes, put on
a smile, and walked to the door. Approaching Trevor, he attempted to shake his hand.
“Mr. Gray, | didn’t expect you to chere in person for a trifle such as this one.”

“I've been looking for you for a long time. Luckily, | managed to find you!”
Loraine and Marco exchanged puzzled glances.
Despite their earlier refusal of the police’s gratitude, they were still found.
Witnessing the scene, Eaton was baffled. He pulled Trevor aside with a smile and whispered, “Mr. Gray, what's
going on? I'm the one who called the police. Why did you greet these two instead?”
Trevor raised an eyebrow and said loudly, “You called the police? Why would you do that?”
Eaton was dumbfounded.
Did Trevor not chere to handle his problem?
