A Moment in Destiny

"That's right!" Gustavo Wagner’s expression was saying you were smart.

"What's the result?" Rae Baxter couldn’t wait to know the answer.

"Braeden Walls is not Melody Knox's child's father!" Gustavo said.

"Uh!" Rae was taken aback, probably they were wrong and the child’s father was someone else? "Fortunately, Braeden still kept his basic ethic and standard!"

"I mean, if the kid’s father is not Braeden, it would be complicated to find the kid’s real father."

They discussed the case in the hall.

"Good morning, Captain Hopkins!"

At this moment, someone greeted Marcel. Rae and Gustavo turned their heads and saw Marcel coming inside the building. Today, he wore a burgundy shirt with dark stripes, a pair of dark trousers, simple style clothes. But it made him look slenderer.

Marcel just nodded politely to everyone's greetings. He stared at Rae and Gustavo. When he saw Rae, his gaze paused for two seconds and then he strode over them.

Gustavo briefly reported the test results.

"Captain Hopkins, this is not the result we predicted? How do we do next?" Gustavo couldn't help but ask it eagerly.

"Rae, you go and check the real estate under Braeden's name! Also, check Piper Salinas's relatives."

"What about me?" Gustavo asked.

Marcel took a look at Gustavo and said seriously, "Mr. Wagner, if I remember correctly, the donkeys in the city are still waiting for you to take care of them, when you plan to do that?"

"Puff--" Rae couldn't help bursting out a laugh. She was afraid that she laughed too abruptly, so she tried to keep up her laugh so that her whole face was slightly trembling.

Marcel glanced at Rae without any expression, as if he ignored his humor and it was not funny at all.

Gustavo widened his eyes and protested in a low voice, "Captain Hopkins, your words are ambiguous! I am not interested in donkeys!"

"But I will be very interested in your investigation results!" Marcel said solemnly.

"Yes, I'm going now!" Gustavo didn't forget to declare himself as he walked out, "I'm not that perverted to raise donkeys!"

Early in the morning, they received orders to go to work, and Gustavo led some people to check the DNA of 65 male donkeys.

Soon, Rae came back and went to find Marcel, "Captain Hopkins, there are three apartments, two villas, and a storehouse under Braeden's name. The storehouse is located at No. 12, commercial street, North District of City B."

Marcel frowned.

"Has the source of information been identified?"

"Yes! The registration information was from the Housing Management Bureau. Braeden's inherited a residential building from his parents after they died in the year he graduated. The apartment was nearby the Affiliated High School of SC Normal University with a total area of 78 square meters. His parents were both teachers, his father was a professor of the History Department of SC Normal University, and his mother was a biology teacher in the Affiliated High School of SC Normal University. He worked at school at the age of 22 because of his parents. After a year of graduation, he bought an apartment in the Faculty Residence Area of the SC Normal University. It was the place we went to last night. It had a total of 86 square meters. Another apartment was in the North District, about one station away from the storehouse, 90 square meters. He bought the villa the year before this year. According to the house price of City B back then, it cost him 8.9 million."
