Paul ask the detective if he would be able to identify a  photo by a photo? The detective said it would be easier if he had DNA. Is there something I need to know? asked the detective. I know you asked us to stay away from Dr.Reed, said Paul. I saw him leaving shortly after we all meet last. I just had a feeling, and I followed him. He ended up in a neighborhood that didn't fit his profile. I then witness him carrying baby items into the home, and on the way out, he's holding the baby, gives the baby a kiss, hands to the lady, and gives her a passionate kiss, said Paul. 

I have evidence, the woman is not his wife and the baby belongs to Emily. So you wanna find out more about their relationship, right said the detective. Yes but Im more concerned about who gave her Emilys baby, said Paul. But if it's DNA you need, I will get it for you. And how are planning to do that? Asked the detective.

Trust me I have my ways, said Paul. I will get back to you when I have it. Ok, but don't get yourself in any trouble, said the detective. Yes, I would like to know too, how you planned to get her DNA said, Dr.Mitchell.Im going to go visit Emily's baby said, Paul. Well, it's time I get back to work said Dr. Mitchell, Good luck young man.

Paul then went back to the home where he saw Dr.Reed enter. He knocked on the door. The woman answered and ask can I help you? Im a dear friend of Emily's and after hearing she gave birth why in her coma, I was concerned about what happened to her child, seems she doesn't know anything about the child where about, said Paul. So how did you know where the child was? asked the woman.

I would be happy to explain that all to you, if I may come in please, said Paul. Paul could see the women became quite uncomfortable. Just for a second, she said. She leads him to the family room. When Paul looked around he saw several pictures of Dr.Reed and the women. He then asked her for a glass of water. when the woman headed toward the kitchen, Paul stopped her.

Oh, I carry my own cup he said. The woman then returned to get Paul's cup. Looking closer to the pictures, Paul could see that Dr.Reed and this woman had a history together. After the woman returned Paul showed her his credentials and sad he was there to check on the baby well being. It's mandatory, considering her mother's condition at the time of birth. he then preceded by asking how did she become the guardian of the child.

I don't think that's any of your business, said the woman. I wasn't told of any such visit, so Im gonna have to ask you to leave please, said the woman. Paul had what it is he came for, which was her fingerprints, he politely stood up and left.

He carefully carried his cup, recognizing how she handed it to him, not to disturb her fingerprints. He then called the detective and said I will be in your office in about a half-hour, could you have some there to lift fingerprints? Sure Im starting to wonder if you needed me at all, said the detective. But I will be here come on.

Paul arrived at the police station. He went straight to the detective's desk and said, be careful, that has the woman prints I was enquiring about. As they watched the other person lift the prints off of the cup. The detective too was starting to see where Paul was going with it all. After the fingerprinter left. Paul asked how long will it be before they identify her? 

Let's go grab a cup of coffee, it sucks here, said the detective, when we get back, I will be able to tell you who your mystery woman is.

While at the coffee shop, The two men discussed the findings of the case so far. They both agreed that Dr.Reed knows more than what he is saying. It's obvious he's having an affair said, Paul. Im not able to speak to Emily's parents about the whereabouts of their grandchild, But you can. Don't you think it would have been better to hire a nanny to attend to the child at home and give Emily a chance to be close to her baby? asked Paul. It's not as if they couldn't afford it. I  agree said the detective. Let's head back to the office, the results should be in.
