Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 308

The forensic expert asked someone to move the body back to the autopsy room. Only then did Charlotte dared to take a step forward and stood beside Shane. Of course, she still has some fear towards the body. Any normal person would be afraid of a dead body.

"You can go back first," Shane turned and said to Charlotte.

"What about you?"

"I'll wait for the result."

Charlotte was obviously reluctant. How could she leave Shane alone after something like this had happened? After all, he was still a patient and she was the one in good health. If anyone were to return it should be the man whose body was covered in bandages. She couldn't leave him alone outside no matter what.

She wrapped her hands around Shane's arm and stood by his side firmly. She was determined to stay.

Shane was quite helpless. He reached out his hand to hold her hand, "I thought you didn't want to see the body." "I'll bear with it." She didn't want to leave.

"Let go."

"As soon as I let go of you, you would chase me away," Charlotte said unhappily.

Shane sighed. He had no choice but to let go and let her do as she pleased. To be honest, it felt quite good to feel her concern. He was just worried she would be scared by the body. After all, this was a police station. There were also weapons other than that. She would be afraid for sure.

About seven or eight minutes later, the medical examiner announced the results. He concluded the man was a labour worker as he did not have distinct injuries which an athlete would have.

"Distinct injuries refer to elbows, wrists and knees injuries for weight- lifters. A swimmer's skin is fairer than an average person and gymnasts would have calluses on their legs and hands," the medical examiner explained, "But this man had injuries all over his body."

"In other words, they were targeting us." Charlotte grabbed Shane's hand and looked at him worriedly.

"Can you confirm his identity?" Shane asked.

The forensic doctor nodded and said, "It's not difficult. Our department has taken some samples to analyze. As for me, I can run a DNA test. As long as the information is in my DNA base, I will give you the results."

Shane nodded. "Thank you for your work."

"It's my job. The two of you should be more worried for yourself. They even dared to attack you in front of the police station. You should think hard about who you've offended and listed some suspects that may be connected to this incident."

"Doctor, do you think this is a premeditated case?" Charlotte asked, "Isn't this a personal grudge?"

"I'm a forensic pathologist, not a doctor." The forensic doctor shook his head with a smile. "Miss, I know what you are thinking but it's my responsibility to tell you, amongst so many cases I've worked on, this is my first time seeing someone sacrifice their own life for a murder."

Charlotte sighed in response. She knew she was too naive.

She just... just couldn't bear it.

She would rather the perpetrator was a worker who hated her and Shane so badly, he wanted them to die. She didn't want to believe that someone has been used by others to be a puppet of murder.

Soon, the identity of the workers was revealed. It was an ordinary worker. His family did not die in the accident and his friends were all alive.

Everyone in his social life was not affected by the incident.

Now, Charlotte had no choice but to believe someone was using these workers.

"I suggest that you leave this city as soon as possible," the officer read the report and said gravely, "We can't prevent them from intentionally targeting you. It's also best if no one else knows of this."

Shane looked at the woman next to him. Charlotte lowered her head, deep in thought. After a moment, she suddenly looked at him and their eyes met each other.

They looked at each other and smiled.

Both of them had the same plan in mind.

Zoe and Peter were caught off guard by the sudden news that they needed to leave. They were about to pack their stuff and head for the airport. But as soon as they got down, they were immediately pinned down by someone.
