Chapter 2059 Because of this, Charlotte had no choice but to feign sorrow and guilt so that Jim would believe her
if she claimed that Shelly’s death was an accident.
However, no matter how thought out her plan was, Jim could see right through her.
He furrowed his brows and removed her hand from his shirt coldly. “Charlotte , I don’t care what you think; there’s
only one thing I have to say to you.
“Roanne had kidnapped Shelly because of you, and you volunteered to save Shelly today. If anything happens to
her, our relationship will end right here. Do you understand?”
Jim’s cold voice and even colder attitude made Charlotte’s heart sink.
She bit her lip tearfully but still nodded in agreement. “Alright… I promise you, Jim… I promise you that I’ll bring
Shelly home safe and sound!”
“Remember what you said.” Jim did not intend to waste any more of his time talking to her and instead stood up.

Charlotte bit her lip as she slumped onto the ground limply. As she watched him leave, the regret and sorrow in her

Jim furrowed his brows when he noticed that Charlotte did not move and immediately turned to glance at her. As he

He furrowed his brows as surprise flashed across his face.
He had never seen Charlotte look so cruel before.
How could the kind, honest girl he knew suddenly become such a deceitful, cruel person?
Had she changed, or had he never known her at all?
Charlotte bit her lip when she noticed Jim staring at her, then quickly turned her head away and stood up. “Alright.
I’ll go get prepared now.”
Then, without giving Jim another glance, she turned and walked away.
Jim remained motionless, staring at her retreating figure, deep in his thoughts.
10 a.m.
With a few bodyguards escorting her, Charlotte arrived at the meeting location Roanne had sent her.
It was an abandoned house that appeared to have been deserted for a very long time.
Every corner of the place was covered in dust and cobwebs.
Charlotte could not help frowning when she saw the environment as she got out of the car.” What kind of shitty
place is this?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy would Roanne arrange for them to meet here?
Charlotte entered the house, mumbling some vague complaints under her breath.
At the end of the second-floor stairwell, Roanne was sitting in a chair with a swaddled baby in her arms.
She smiled at Charlotte when she saw her. “My dear sister, do you remember what this place
is?”

Charlotte sneered. “How the fuck would I know what place this is? It’s too crappy…”

“This is the ruins of Love and kindness Children’s Home, where we grew up,” said Roanne impassively as she met
Charlotte’s disgusted gaze. “This is where you, me, and Number-9 lived. Have you forgotten?”

Jim, who was eavesdropping from inside his study at Landry Mansion, furrowed his brows when he heard this.
‘You, me, and Number-9…’ Charlotte was Number-9, was she not?
