Chapter 611

Meanwhile, at the military hospital.

Ricky came to Charlotte's room.

Charlotte had just laid down after lunch, ready for a nap, and when she

heard the movement of Ricky coming in, she hurriedly sat up.

"Didn't we agree that we would try not to see each other during the

day? What if Shelly or Jacqueline see us? What's wrong?" She asked

urgently, knowing that Ricky had always known better than to do such a

thing and that something was definitely wrong.

"Something did come up, Miss Meyer. Take it easy." Ricky locked the

door behind him, "Don't worry, Shelly and Jacqueline won't be here for

a few days."

"Why?! What's happened to them?" Charlotte immediately got out of

bed and asked in surprise. She was not worried about Shelly or

Jacqueline's safety, but she still needed them for her engagement.

"My friend at the police station told me that Shelly was taken into

custody by them last night. She would have to stay there for fifteen

days. It was said that she had employed another person for attempted

assault.” Ricky helped Charlotte sit down on the couch.

"What? She shouldn't have really gone after Joyce?" Charlotte thought

instantly.

“Yeah, it looks like Miss Meyer knows Shelly pretty well." Ricky poured

Charlotte a cup of hot tea and handed it to her, "Have some tea and

don't be angry. It's not a big problem."

"This stupid bitch, who wants to know her? She is just a failure.”

Charlotte clenched the teacup in her hand in exasperation, "Come on,

tell me what's going on."

"Shelly hired a man from a black market agency yesterday. Nominally it

was just a car rental service, but actually she paid to have the man

follow Joyce with her. Then, Shelly instructed the man to push Joyce

down the steps on an overpass. She said she wanted Joyce to

miscarry." Ricky recounted.

"Joyce won't really have a miscarriage, right?" Charlotte drew a cold

breath. At this moment, the last thing she wanted was for Joyce to

miscarry; Joyce had to birth to Justin's child so that she could get out of

Luther's mind forever.

“It is not clear. The man did not get it, and Joyce was not pushed off the

overpass. Instead, the man was caught by Joyce, and eventually

onlookers called the police. The police now are going to put the man

and Shelly, who hired the man, in a 15-day detention. However, I heard

that that night, Joyce seemed to have been rushed to the hospital.

Perhaps she got some injuries. I'm not sure about what happened in

the hospital."

When Ricky finished, Charlotte put her teacup down on the coffee table

in annoyance. She did not have the leisure to drink tea.

"Stupid." She opened her mouth to scold, "Shelly did it for herself. She

likes Justin and wants to marry him, and Joyce is carrying Justin's

baby. Yesterday morning she was complaining to me and saying she

wished Joyce had an abortion. At that time I stopped her, for fear that

she would mess up the whole thing, and I even found many things for

her to do. I asked her to help me buy things just to consume her time

and divert her attention. Just how could I possibly expect that, after all

these precautions, she still got into trouble!"

"Now that it's happened. I heard that Jacqueline has arrived at the

police station at midnight last night, dealt with the chief there, but to no

avail, and she is now with her baby girl.” Ricky said.

"Jacqueline can't do anything about it. Karl's background is so strong

that she can't possibly get it done through just some connections. So

this matter, too, must have been handled at Second Precinct, by that

Karl?" Charlotte asked.
