And he beats up Flour, too. Why?

Because Spam slips on Flour

Certainly not!

Spam screams at Flour...

Don't fool me by turning to dust!

you knew it? you wicked boy...

you must be Ho-yin

Say hello to Auntie Shirley

you smirk. you must be bad!

How can you be so rude?

Go and apologise!

He has no manner when you're around

lt's not my fault

Wait!

ls this my problem, or hers...

Or your own problem?

I have no problem

I just want a proper home for my boy

Not just any woman will do

Ho-yin wants a real mom

Wait

I'm leaving

A real mother will never divorce

We divorced

because of our continued row

But why did we quarrel?

you gave up your

maternal responsibility

I didn't. you just got lucky

you're granted custodial rights

lt wasn't luck.

I spent time with him

I know the responsibility!

Would responsibility

make him happier?

I hope you don't mind me coming here

If you want to continue be

Ho-yin's mother...

We don't have conflict

There was no conflict

How's it now?

Let's go!

Wait

Another 5 minutes, okay?

She loves to chat here everyday

Keep saying how boring life is...

Tell her to hurry up

I want to play at your place

I've an idea. Come with me

I received this e-mail

They want the ransom be ready

by sunset

I've already called my bank

Mr. Wang, calm down. Don't rush

Don't tell this

to anyone around you

They could all be prime suspects

Madam, be honest...

Can you guarantee my son's safety?!

Our mission is the same as yours

lt's to free your son

But what should I do now?

Have faith in us.

We're coming over

If the office is unsafe,

you should go home

The first step

towards saving your son is simple

Just be yourself

What do you mean?

Continue to disguise

Why can't the ClB boys

put on better disguises?

These are all Wang's house staff

Looks like they've been dismissed

Have we found the maid yet?

No. She has switched off her phone

you're wrong. He's not one of us

Hello? Okay!

The ClB has done

Sergeant Ho

Found anything?

None

I'm lnspector Ho

from OCTB

Mr. Wang,

I have some questions

Have you made

any enemy lately?

Any friend or relative

acting suspiciously?

I came from China

more than 10 years ago

I don't have many friends or relatives

Since my wife passed away

Jiaming is all that I'm left with

Didn't an old friend

want to borrow money recently?

Many people come

and ask for loans

She was my secretary

Only that?

That's none of your business

For sure it's not

Mr. Wang, we are not being nosy

But if you don't cooperate...

you could easily kill your child

But I also have

an analytical mind

This woman is now

dying of cancer

How could she

kidnap my son?

I don't want to see her
