Chapter 390 Investigating the Truth 

“Callum, there’s been progress in the case you asked to investigate.” 

Callum’s l*ps curled into a devilish smile. “Did you find the police officer who handled the case?” 

“Yes, I found him. He’s at the police station. Do you want to come over?” 

Callum glanced at Grace and Xander and agreed without hesitation, “Alright, we’ll be right 

there.” 

After ending the call, Callum said to them, “Either way, going there will clear everything up!” 

Upon hearing this, Grace felt an unexpected unease in her heart. It was very sudden, and it made her jittery all over. 

The feeling persisted until their car stopped at the police station, and she gradually calmed 

down. 

Xander sensed her anxiousness and whispered, “It’s okay. No matter the outcome, we’ll face it together.” 

Grace said softly, “Thank you, Xander.” 

Callum watched them in the front seat and couldn’t help but chuckle. He had never seen Xander so gentle. It seemed Grace had quite an effect on him! 

“Xander, do you think this might be another mystery?” Grace had lost her confidence. 

Xander tried to reassure her. “It’s unlikely. The truth is oft 

we see now might be an illusion.” 

Just then, the doors of the police station swung open. 

closer than it seems, and what closer than it 

The chief of police, Timothy Hopkins, hurried over upon seeing Callum. He greeted him with the utmost respect. “Mr. Stevens, what brings you here?” 

Callum was the son of a well-known political figure in the area. Even the mayor would pay 

respect to him and be afraid of offending him. 

Callum politely greeted Timothy, then introduced Xander and Grace. “Xander, Grace, this is Chief Hopkins.” 

Timothy was a smart man. He could tell that Callum seemed to admire Xander, indicating the latter wasn’t someone to be trifled with. Timothy’s attitude became even more respectful. 

“So you’re friends with Mr. Stevens! I’m honored to meet you. How should I address you?”

“The name is Xander Fulton.” 

Timothy’s eyes flashed with curiosity when he heard that name. He had rarely heard that name in Coronia. 

However, if Callum held Xander in such high regard, he must have had a prominent background. 

“Mr. Fulton, please come inside. Just tell me what you need.” 

Callum didn’t beat around the bush and asked, “We’re here to investigate a car accident. I believe you’re aware of it. How about taking us to see the case file?” 

This put Timothy in a difficult position. 

Ordinary people didn’t have the authority to access case files. Even police personnel needed to go through a process and get approval from higher-ups. 

“Mr. Stevens, I’m afraid you won’t be able to view the case file. However, the police officer who had handled the case is waiting for you. Would you like to talk to him?” 

Callum raised an eyebrow and said intimidatingly, “What do you mean, 

Chief Hopkins?” 

Timothy explained, “Without instructions from higher-ups, it’s impossible to access the case file. Unless …” 

Timothy paused, and Callum immediately caught on. 

“You mean we need to go through the proper procedures?” 

He nodded. “Please understand, Mr. Stevens, we can’t ignore the rules.” 

Callum grew impatient, but it was relatively easy for him to handle such procedures. 

Unfortunately, he had recently offended his father and was now giving him the cold shoulder. 

If he didn’t give in to his father now, it would make things hard for Xander and Grace. 

Yet he couldn’t help but feel frustrated at the thought of giving in.
