Chapter 387
You Hit My Heart
Instantly, the scene was embarrassing and the atmosphere was a little
awkward.
Luther's long body stiffened. In any case, the Warner family was
involved in the inexplicable murder of his grandmother and the
kidnapping of Joyce, and Joyce was right, if she hadn't been with him,
she wouldn't have encountered these things.
Luther's cold eyes narrowed, his breath grew more intense, and his
face became more and more serious.
Karl saw the situation and hurriedly rounded up, "Joyce you just
mentioned the orphanage. It reminded me of one thing. I found
something. His teenage activities were pretty much just in the vicinity of
your orphanage. I did some calculation, and it was about the years you
were in high school. So, have you seen him around the orphanage
before?"
âNo, because I was on the shooting team during my high school years
and was not at the orphanage. So I couldn't have known these people.â
Joyce immediately denied.
âIs it just a coincidence that Thomas used to stay in the vicinity of your
orphanage?" Karl wrinkled his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and
then shook his head gently, âBut all coincidences must have an untold
truth behind them. This is the biggest feeling I've had since I started
working in criminal investigation.â
"The orphanage ..." Joyce racked her brain thinking, "Or you may ask
Charlotte if she knows anything. I wasn't in the orphanage all those
years, but she was always in the orphanage.â
"Charlotte?" said Karl with a start.
âYes, she grew up in the same orphanage as I did and was only
recently found by the Heath family.â Joyce shrugged.
Speaking of Charlotte, Joyce suddenly got a jolt.
She suddenly recalled what Lauren had once said.
âI showed Charlotte the pills and wanted her to drug you, but Charlotte
didn't agree and rejected me on the spot. Then later, the drug was lost.
I never wanted to give you the drug myself."
Although Lauren said Charlotte refused to drug her at the time.
But ...
Joyce frowned deeply, a strange feeling grew again.
On the day Stephanie was killed, she met with Charlotte at noon.
Although the time of Charlotte's departure and the time of Stephanie's
death did not match up.
But why, why was Charlotte just always there whenever something
happened?
Her mind wondered and fell into contemplation.
"What's wrong? Did you remember something?" Luther nudged Joyce
and asked eagerly.
Joyce woke up and shook her head in a hurry, "No."
Charlotte was now the precious daughter of the Heath family, so why
would she do such a thing?
Although Charlotte was always there whenever there was something,
after all, there was no any substantial connections, and she could not
say these nonsense just by guessing.
Moreover, Charlotte was the one who would marry Luther later, and
with Luther present at this moment, she would only tell Karl alone even
if she did find something.
"If you think of something, just say it, don't just keep it to yourself."
Luther frowned deeper, always feeling Joyce was hiding something.
"Nothing important.â Joyce denied.
"If I remember correctly, Charlotte had come to make a statement for
the Lauren case, just like she did for the Stephanie case.â Karl thought
for a moment and solemnly said, âI'll go back and read the statement
again and check it out more carefully. Any of you, don't make any
moves, don't ask Charlotte, and don't reveal the contents of today's
conversation. I'm done eating, I'll go first.â
With that, Karl picked up his briefcase, nodded towards Joyce and
Luther, and left in a huff.
