Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 265

Charlotte had been waiting in the private room. Even if she had food to eat, it was still very boring. Although she liked to eat, she was not a foodie. The thought of eating could not completely suppress her restless heart.

She waited a little longer.

Shane still didn't come back.

She had no choice but to leave the private room with Cole to look for Shane.

As she went downstairs, she ran into a man and a woman going upstairs.

"Too bad about Rick's younger sister. The knife was stabbed right into the lungs. It must have been done by a professional assassin, right?" the woman asked.

"It must be. But isn't his sister abroad? Is she back?"

"How am I supposed to know? I'm only here to see if I can get any inside information on the Jane Corporation. I never thought something like this would happen. It's really difficult being rich."

It sounded like the two of them were reporters.

The more Charlotte thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. The sister the female reporter mentioned wasn't Anne, wasn't it?

"Let's hurry up," she said to Cole.

"Miss Charlotte, if the victim is Miss Anne, Mr. Fuller will definitely call me and get me to stop you from going downstairs."

What Cole said was reasonable.

This was Shane's personality. He didn't like her to get involved in dangerous matters, although she felt that it didn't matter so much and was not something to worry about.

Soon, Charlotte and Cole squeezed into the crowd together. The facial features of the person lying on the ice-cold floor tiles were far different from that of Anne's. Even though she was covered in a large amount of blood, Charlotte could still differentiate her best friend from a stranger.

Charlotte let out a sigh of relief. "It's alright now. Let's look for Shane and Avery."

"Why don't you call him?" Cole asked with a smile.

"That's right, I almost forgot I can call him. I must be stupid..." Charlotte picked up her phone.

Cole couldn't help but laugh.

He didn't know if Miss Charlotte was stupid or not, but he knew that something else must have happened if Mr. Fuller didn't go back upstairs after finding out that it wasn't Anne.

He wouldn't necessarily pick up the phone.

Charlotte called him three times, but Shane still didn't answer. She could only give up looking for him.

She glanced at the corpse. It caused all the hair on her arms to stand on end. Charlotte immediately turned her gaze away and left the crowd, intent on finding Shane.

"Cole, did you see the body just now?"

"What did you notice?" Cole asked in reply.

"Well, I found that she was stabbed in the lung. Obviously, this wasn't an impulsive murder. The blood around has different colors, which shows that, at the beginning, the amount of blood was very small. Later, she suddenly lost a lot of blood. That is to say, she had been injured for a long time, and only began to bleed freely when she walked to the center. This murderer seems very polite."

As she spoke, Charlotte stopped in her tracks and looked toward the center of the room.

The place she was standing right now was facing the center of the stairs, where she could see the whole space clearly.

The ceiling's crystal chandelier was the only source of light. The first floor was lit up, but the second and third floors, which were set back, were a little dark. She had just been in the private room on the second floor and had noticed that there were no lights in the room.

That was to say, the crystal chandelier was the only source of light. The huge light was enough.

After all, this was not that kind of event.

And the woman who died was lying right under the crystal chandelier.

From the ceiling to the ground, there were at least ten meters. It was about five stories worth of space.

"Not only was it a professional assassin, but they also know a lot about this place. They deliberately chose to kill today. In that case, we'd better find Shane quickly and then leave this place." The more Charlotte analyzed the situation, the more worried she became.

She couldn't be a detective. She only analyzed so much purely out of fear.

Cole wanted to find Shane as well, but he and Miss Charlotte couldn't do anything if Mr. Fuller didn't answer his phone.

"But, I still remember Avery saying that Shane wants me here to watch a show. Cole, do you know about this?" Charlotte asked again.

"I know. That's what he told me. I also don't understand why he came." "So I think this murder case is within his expectation. Now that we can't find him, we'd better leave here first."

Cole didn't understand. "Why?"
