Bruce's POV:

After getting uncle Owen's package, I didn't get anything else and I didn't find any lead, the police were still investigating.

I didn't tell Mr Dominic,my grandfather so it won't bother him, but I asked him if my uncle Owen has contacted him recently and he said no.

I just have to be careful until Uncle Owen is caught.

With how stressed I am from working almost ten hours a day, I am almost drained of energy whenever I am going home.

Lisa's velvety voice made me stare at her, as an unwavering smile adored her baby face. I saw Roxy,her mom, walking downstairs. I think she was listening to hear what I would say because she came to sit beside me. "Lisa, baby, why are you asking that?" I asked her and she pouted and folded her arms. "Mommy says she's prettier than me, so who do you think is prettier?" Lisa asked with a raised eyebrow. I think she knows what I was going to say because she was glaring at me. "Darling you and your mum are equally beautiful." I replied, because I don't want to get in some kind of trouble. "I know you never
