In Solana City, Tatiana stood alone outside the East Solana Police Bureau. She gritted her teeth and

walked in.

"Are you here to make a report, miss?" asked a female officer.

Tatiana nodded vigorously. She asked softly, "May I know if Cyrus... I mean, Chief Cyrus is around?"

Cyrus had been busy for two days and two nights. He was sleeping soundly in the lounge room at the

time.

The moment he found out that Tatiana was there to see him, he leaped to his feet and went out to meet

her.

In the office, Tatiana and Cyrus sat facing each other. She interlocked her fingers and rubbed them

together until her knuckles turned red.

Cyrus studied her carefully. He asked in a concerned voice, "You showed up unannounced. Did

something happen, Taty?"

Tatiana was tender-hearted and timid. She had always been overshadowed by Alyssa ever since she

was a child.

Despite being half-siblings, Cyrus was never biased. He always treated her the same as Alyssa. Each

time he went on a work trip and came back with presents, he would give the same to both Alyssa and

Tatiana.

As they grew older, they didn't get together as often. Plus, Tatiana was shyer and more introverted.

After being silent for a moment, Tatiana looked up slowly. She looked into Cyrus' eyes and said,
