Holly stood gasping at the top of the staircase, her voice calm and indifferent, carrying a sense of impartiality and integrity that left no room for favoritism.
Clad in her police uniform, her presence commanded respect.
When Keira saw her, she was slightly taken aback.
She had just sent that recording to Holly not more than half an hour ago, how had she managed to get here so quickly?
As Keira pondered, Holly cut through the crowd of reporters, arriving in front of her.
Isla's heart skipped a beat upon seeing her.
But then she thought she was overreacting, that not every police sighting should remind her of Connor, who should have been transferred to his cell block by that time... right?
As she was contemplating, Jake said, "Officer, what do you mean by that?"
Holly answered, "It means that the child really isn't yours. There's no need to be too heartbroken over it."
