Chapter 389

After Joyce was gone.

Luther's eyes instantly turned cold.

The sunlight outside the window lit up the room brightly, spilling in

through the gaps in the window prisms, and reflecting on his ghostly,

knife-sharp side face. Half sunshine, half gloom. He slightly tilted his

head to immerse his whole self in the gloom, and no one could see the

look on his face.

In his hands, he kept turning his Americano cup.

The pure black liquid in the transparent cup kept swaying in the midst

of the unsteady light, and looked even more bizarre.

Charlotte...

Charlotte seemed to be standing right at the beginning of all these

tangles. Everything, it seemed, had some connection with Charlotte.

But he was not sure...

The night he was attacked, Charlotte sacrificed her virginity to save

him.

Joyce and Charlotte came from the same orphanage.

Charlotte was present the night Joyce was molested, and Charlotte and

Lauren had a good relationship.

Charlotte was there at noon on the day his grandmother was killed.

The day before Jacqueline revealed Joyce's pregnancy, Charlotte had

kneeled down to Joyce. The whole process was recorded and posted

on the internet and made a big stir. Obviously, Charlotte must have

been involved in the affair.

However, in Hill Benjamin, when Joyce was kidnapped that night, it was

true that Charlotte did not appear.

Everything, would there be a connection?

He stared at the black liquid in his hand, shaking it, deep in thought.

It seemed that he needed to look into it, something about Charlotte.

Perhaps, an unexpected discovery could be made.

The Heath family.

Charlotte was taking a rest in the late afternoon.

She recently took a maternity leave from the R&S Group. In fact, she

went to work at the group with the intention of getting closer to Luther,

but the recent uproar was a bit too much, so it was better for her not to

go.

This morning, Shelly called her.

Shelly told her the good news she's been waiting for.

Luther and Joyce had finally filed for divorce! She had really waited too

long for this day.

Jacqueline and Shelly have bought some connections in the court and

would keep them informed of any developments.

This morning, Luther and Joyce had just submitted their applications

when someone called to let Jacqueline know.

Charlotte sighed with relief as she lay flat on her back, feeling the bed

was extra soft and comfortable today. She felt relaxed all over and the

gloom she had felt before was now all gone.

Despite the previous desperate opening with Luther, who had refused

to marry her and told her to abort the child in her womb.

But all this, with Joyce now pregnant with Justin's child, and his divorce

from Joyce, she believed there would soon be a turnaround.

As long as there was no Joyce, he would definitely accept her.

Only, Luther did not use his power to get the divorce certificate out

directly, and still had to wait for a month.

Thinking of this, she felt some uneasiness in her heart, and was

somehow afraid of further mishaps.

Just thinking.

Her cell phone suddenly rang.

She didn't look at the number either, thinking it was Shelly, and pressed

the answer button straight away.

"Hey. Shelly, what's up.”

To her surprise, the voice coming from the other end of the phone

scared her and made her jump up from the bed.

“It's me, I'm back. I've spent all the money you gave me."

It was Thomas’ voice, and he called her directly!
