Chapter 74

Toby shook his head. “I wasn’t trying to stand up for her. I was merely stating the truth.”

“But-” Julia sounded unconvinced.

However, Tina tugged on her sleeve while putting up a tough front. “It’s fine, Mom. I suppose Miss Reed isn’t a suspect if Toby doesn’t think so.”

Toby frowned at Tina’s statement. Even though he could sense that something was off, he couldn’t put a finger on it. At the side, Julia glared at him in anger, having caught on to the underlying implications in Tina’s

statement.

 

Tina already told us thashe heard the kidnapper mention that it was Sonia who ordered Fox Eyes to seek revenge

against Tina. Yet, he had the audacity to hurt Tina by standing up for Sonia. Tina even ended up defending him!

 

All of a sudden, someone knocked on the door of the ward. It was Tom standing at the doorway. “President

Fuller.”

“What is it?” Toby opened his mouth to speak.

After glancing at Tina, Tom said, “Investigations on Carl Lee have yielded results.”

Toby narrowed his eyes. “Wait for me outside.”

“Yes, sir.” Tom left after receiving his instructions.

After that, Toby removed his arm from Tina’s grasp. “I need to leave for a moment, Tina.”

Tina nodded smilingly. “Okay.”

Toby helped her lie down before tucking her in bed. Then, he left the ward. After the door closed behind him, he

looked at Tom, who handed him a document. “President Fuller, these are documents detailing Carl’s biography. He’s an orphan who grew up in Jordain County. He only started going to school in his teenage years after Miss

Reed and her father became his sponsor. Upon reaching adulthood, he was scouted into the fashion industry as

a model because of his outstanding appearance. Considering the above, he’s not Fox Eyes.”

“Is he really not?” Toby frowned.

Tom gave him a nod. “Yeah. I already inquired President Gray, who had met Fox Eyes twice. According to his

description, Fox Eyes is a top hacker. Carl was never involved in such endeavors. Besides, he’s currently

attending a photoshoot on a snow mountain, and has caught a cold, whereas Fox Eyes doesn’t have a cold.
