Chapter 505
You Hit My Heart
The coroner said politely to Karl in a hurry, "Please come with me.
Although the scene has been cleaned, I have saved the photos and will
show them to you together.â
"Good." Karl turned to Joyce and said, "I'll take a look at the scene, and
you stay here for a while."
"Well, I'm going over to have a word with Cecelia.â Joyce nodded and
walked to the side.
Cecelia sat alone in the corner, her eyes empty as if her soul had been
taken away, lifeless. She did not even notice Joyce, only immersed in
the great pain.
Joyce stepped forward, bowed gently to Cecelia, and said respectfully,
"Cecelia, I'm sorry for your loss.â
Cecelia woke up when she heard someone calling her, and when she
saw that it was Joyce, she stood up quickly, "Joyce, it's you, what are
you doing here?"
âI happened to be with Officer Karl and stopped by and came in to take
a look." Joyce explained, "Cecelia, Karl is the most responsible
detective I've ever met, and he came by to check out the scene. And he
will do whatever he can to help.â
In front of her eyes, Cecelia had obviously cried, her eyes were red and
swollen, her tears had not yet dried, and her sorrowful face could not
hide the endless sorrow.
She nodded gently, "I see. I'm sorry I couldn't receive you properly
because of the accident in my family.â
Joyce wanted to ask if there was anything she could do to help. The
Heath family was a warlord family, full of soldiers standing in the
courtyard, so certainly they had no need for more hands.
She looked around and noticed a strange thing. In fact, she had felt
strange since she came in just now. Why didn't Charlotte see her after
such a big incident at home?
"Cecelia, how come I don't see Charlotte?" asked Joyce directly.
"Hey, don't mention it." Cecelia sighed quietly, âToday I had an urgent
matter to go to the Capital. I did not expect that when I barely got
halfway there, I got a call, and they told me Charlotte had an accident.
She was hit by a car near the subway entrance, so I had to turn around
and rush back to Khebury."
"Charlotte was in a car accident? How come? I saw her at Skymall this
afternoon.â Joyce almost blurted out. How could that be? Charlotte was
obviously with Ricky, and it was obvious that Ricky would drive her
home, how could she be near the subway entrance? And she got hit by
a car?
âYes, I heard her say that too. Charlotte was in a hurry and was stuck in
traffic, so she took the subway. I didn't realize the more I rushed, the
more things went wrong. It all came together.â Cecelia said with
remorse.
âIsn't there a lieutenant with Charlotte? I saw him this afternoon, too."
Joyce was suspicious but concerned, "Charlotte, is she okay? She's
still pregnant.â
"Oh, you mean Ricky, who also happened to be urgently transferred
back to the Capital this afternoon, and would not be back until
sometime later.â Cecelia put one hand on her forehead, "All the
misfortunes, all the misfortunes, all in one place. I came back in a hurry
and visited Charlotte at the military hospital, but fortunately, she only
fainted for a while and was not seriously injured, and the baby in her
womb was saved. Then I rushed home again, I did not expect ..."
In the end, Cecelia choked up.
"When I entered, Rodney had already passed away, and he was lying
there. He had fallen down the stairs. I blame myself for not being able
to take care of him at home all the time."
