Charlotte repeatedly paced across the empty Heath residence by herself.
Cecelia and Rodney both left Khebury this morning for the Capital for some business.
She was the only one in the empty house.
Ricky sent her back to the house in the afternoon, and then went out on his own to do some work and to get some information, and had not returned.
She drifted off to sleep for a while and woke up to find it was almost dark, and her whole body was covered in cold sweat, like she had just been fished out of the water. Perhaps she had a terrible nightmare just now, her heart was now full of fear and she started to get restless.
She got up and went to the bathroom to put on hot water to take a bath. She wanted to relax her body, but the more she washed, the more suffocating she felt, and she could hardly breathe. She could only change into a bathrobe and hurriedly get out of the tub.
At this point, it was all dark outside, and the endless darkness of the night seemed to have completely enveloped the surrounding area.
She took a few bites of noodles for dinner and lost her appetite.
Feeling unease, she threw all the clothes she had worn today into the washing machine.
She wanted to clean all the traces associated with Stephanie.
As she watched the washing machine go round and round, her heart seemed to shake up and down with it. She watched for a long time, so uncomfortable that she felt like throwing up.
Today she killed someone. She actually killed someone with her own hands!
She had actually killed someone! As much as she wanted Stephanie to die before! Because Stephanie got in her way, one more day of life she got, and the engagement between her and Luther could be dragged on and on.
