"Mom, does it still hurt?"
Rosalynn's heart clenched.
She kissed Cory's cheek: "It hasn't hurt for a while, don't worry."
Cory nodded.
"Was the bad guy caught?" he asked.
"Wait for Dad..." Rosalynn's word "Dad" didn't finish, she hesitated.
"Wait for Wayne to catch him?" Cory asked.
"Yes." Rosalynn nodded, and then gently asked, "When he recovers, I want to take you and your sister to meet him."
"Then tell us that he is our father, and tell him that we are his children, right?" Cory asked.
"If you don't want to, I won't force you." Rosalynn hurriedly said.
Cory was silent for a moment.
"Mom, will you be happy if you make up with him?" he asked.
Rosalynn's eyes filled with tears: "Yes."
Cory sighed: "I just want you to be happy. As long as you are happy, I can do anything."
Just as Rosalynn was about to say something, Cory suddenly started to have a nosebleed.
"Oh my God!"
Rosalynn was startled.
She quickly grabbed a tissue.
Cory seemed very calm, took the tissue, and covered his nostrils: "It's okay, maybe it's because I ate fried food a few days ago."
"Not the first time, right?" Rosalynn keenly noticed something was wrong in his words.
"Three times." Cory murmured.
"Uncle also had a nosebleed once."
Cory didn't mention that his uncle had bought a lot of fried chicken.
Because they couldn't let Granny Hilaria find out, the two ate secretly.
But he couldn't betray his uncle!
Rosalynn was a little worried. That night, after putting the children to sleep, she quietly went out and called the hospital of Jared Group, arranging to take Cory there for a check-up tomorrow.
Rosalynn pursed her lips.
"I think we might not have caught the real culprit."
"How could that be? I might make a mistake, but there's no way I and Cory would both be wrong!" Jaime assured.
"I'm not saying you guys were wrong. What if someone deliberately placed the cellphone there to lure us?" Rosalynn asked seriously.
"Was that a frame-up?" Jaime was startled.
He really didn't think about it that way, because finding the location of that cellphone was already very difficult.
"Think about it, why did the cellphone suddenly have a signal after being off for so long? If it's to deal with something, they should turn it off quickly, right?" Rosalynn analyzed logically.
"But that cell phone lost its signal only on the night I found you." Jaime pursed his lips.
"Could it be because the cell phone ran out of power and turned off automatically, and that's why the signal disappeared?" Rosalynn suggested.
From the time they discovered the signal to the time they lost it, it was exactly the time it took for a cell phone to run out of battery.
Jaime's face darkened as he analyzed the problem of signal in his mind, and there was indeed room for a lot of suspicion.
"Sis, do you already have a suspect in mind?" Jaime looked at Rosalynn.
