A man's voice could be heard coming from the other end of the phone. "May I know if you are Miss Yvonne Yates?"
"You are?" Yvonne asked in a suspicious tone.
"The situation is like this, Miss Yates. I am calling from the prison. I can't reach your father on his phone because it's switched. This is why I am calling you," said the man on the other end of the phone after he eased up his tone.
"Oh, hello, sir. What can L.do for you? " Yvonne asked while testing the waters.
The man on the other end replied in a rather awkward tone. "That pickpocket, the man who said he is your father's illegitimate child, is facing some trouble right now. All of his bodily functions are very terrible. He is just a bag of bones. We have already checked his blood and DNA. That man and your father indeed are not in the slightest bit related at all. Just to be fair, we have also visited the city that your father had lived in back then. We've checked the date that he had gotten married and also the date this man was born. Plenty of people in that city knew that your father and that woman had gotten married after they had only been together for a very short time. Also, the day they got married was only half a year earlier than the day this man was born. In other words, all the evidence from all directions proved that this man is not your father's son. He and our father have nothing to do with each other at all."
When she heard that, Yvonne sneered." Then why are you still looking for my father? Since that man is a pickpocket, wouldn't all of this be over if you guys just bring him to justice?"
The man on the other end of the call was still very calm. "The trouble is that that man's body is failing in all aspects because he had taken substances that he shouldn't.
I am just following the protocol and notifying your father. After all... they had once had a father-son relationship."
"What?" Yvonne did not expect that as well. "Do you mean .that man, he is...going to die soon?"
"Yes, it should be within these few days," said the policeman.
