Fitch took a sip of water and stood by the mirror to straighten his clothes. “Before the crash, I was hired
by Ian to dig into the secrets of the Sanders family’s daughter.” Tyler nodded in recognition, he had
heard about the case. “Tyler, fill me in on everything that’s gone down recently, especially anything
related to Ian and Maja. Don’t leave out a thing; I need the full picture.” He avoided mentioning Zoey,
as if the name itself brought discomfort. Tyler quickly updated Fitch on the developments from North
America. It took Fitch ten minutes to process the new information. “I did meet Phelps before the
accident, and if you’re not about to tell me he’s more than he seems, then waking from the coma
wouldn’t have made me suspect him. He’s concealed his true self too well.” Fitch was a cautious man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey all had real bonds of friendship that wouldn’t be questioned without solid evidence. So when Ian
decided to suspect Phelps, it must have been a decision made with absolute clarity. Now aware of
Phelps’s true identity, Fitch pieced things together with ease. “I met with Phelps that time, and then
headed to Crystalbrook Valley. My team found data suggesting the Sanders family’s daughter was
likely born in Solstice Hospital. Back then, being a doctor was a secure job, but that hospital in
Crystalbrook Valley had fired a bunch of staff in a short period. I intended to check it out myself, but
then the crash happened.” “Fitch, I’ve heard from Ian’s people – that Jolin is the daughter of the
Sanders family.” Fitch pondered, considering this angle. Jolin’s life story did seem to fit, but something
felt off. “I’m heading back to Crystalbrook Valley. I’m taking more people this time to investigate. I have
a hunch, but I’m afraid it’s wrong and could trigger a chain of errors on Ian’s end. I need to see for
myself.” Without Jolin in the mix, his suspicions would’ve fallen on Maja. Her life story was strikingly
similar to what he knew, but Jolin’s life story was just like Maja’s; besides, with the paternity test
backing her claim, she was a likely candidate. However, with Phelps’s identity in question, the DNA test
he provided was suspect. Realizing this, he was about to call Ian when one of his men came in. “Mr.
Haskins, Mr. Dylan Sanders is here to see you. Says he has some questions.” Fitch wasn’t close with

but went to the lobby to meet him anyway. Dylan looked worn, yet his authoritative aura remained

which meant Dylan must have uncovered something too. Dylan massaged his temples, looking pale,
“My father handed the search for my sister to Phelps, and Ian passed it to you. I need to know your
next move, and I want in.” Fitch eyed him carefully. Dylan’s presence was heavy, his eyes bloodshot
from lack of sleep, and he’d traveled all the way from North America to Greenfield. “Fitch, I’m ready to
throw everything into this investigation. I need to know if Jolin truly is my sister,” his voice was hoarse
and tense, his hands clenched in disquietude as he spoke. Fitch had been briefed by Tyler – Jolin was
dead in North America, her death somehow linked to Dylan. Dylan cared for Judith, for he determined
to protect his sister, but if the deceased Jolin was his true kin, how could he reconcile that? Despite his
recent surgery, Fitch couldn’t ignore the complications on Ian’s side. He was Ian’s buddy; this matter
needed prompt resolution. “I’m heading to Crystalbrook Valley, where Jolin lived as well.” Dylan stood
up to join him, “I’m coming with you.” Concerned for Fitch’s health, Tyler sighed softly, “I’m in too.”
