CHAPTER 2041
“I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard this.
“Shelly is still so young, barely two months old. How could someone do this to her?” Quentin had
indeed sent his men over to Landry Mansion to kill the wretched baby, but…they had been one step too
late.
When his men arrived, the only thing they saw was Sean chasing after a car after the baby had been
abducted.
This was why Charlotte had come to find Jim; she could not fathom who could have wanted this child. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
However, no matter who it was, as long as the child was still alive, she would not be able to rest until
she found her!
As soon as she thought of this, Charlotte lifted her head to stare tearfully at Jim’s handsome, chiseled
face. “Have you found any clues, Jim?”
Jim narrowed his eyes and told Charlotte about the car’s license plate number.
“Are you saying that…whoever kidnapped Shelly was driving a car that impersonated one of the Quinn
family’s?” Charlotte bit her lip in disbelief, her entire body frozen as though she had been struck by
lightning. A car that bore the license plate of the Quinn family…
If she remembered correctly, Quentin had told them to go to an abandoned car yard when they first
arrived in Merchant City because they could not afford to get a new car.
At that time, he had sent someone to help them, and that person had given them a car that bore the
license plate of a broken-down vehicle belonging to the Quinn family.
Roanne had fallen in love with the vehicle and wanted to claim it as her own, but at that time, Charlotte
had been cautious about using this car, worried that someone would find out about their connection
with the Quinn family. Because of this, she had even scolded Roanne and forbade her from ever
driving this car.
As soon as she thought of this, Charlotte lifted her head to stare at Jim. “Jim, where’s Roanne?
Jim furrowed his brows and suddenly realized that this was the first time he had ever heard Charlotte
bring up Roanne after she had moved out and gone to live in the city center.
It was as though she had forgotten Roanne existed ever since she moved out of Landry Mansion.
Jim paused for a moment, then replied impassively, “I kicked Roanne out of the house this morning
after she tried to sabotage you. I think she went to live with Bonnie after that.”
As soon as he finished his sentence, Jim narrowed his eyes and glanced at Charlotte. “Do you think
Roanne was the one who had kidnapped Shelly and June?”
Roanne had gone missing, too, ever since Shelly was abducted. Charlotte bit her lip and suddenly felt
her blood run cold. “It… It’s possible.” Never in her wildest dreams had she thought Roanne would
betray her! Roanne knew every single one of her weaknesses and had borne witness to all of her
wrongdoings!
In the past, Charlotte had always thought of Roanne as a little dog that would never betray its owner,
and therefore, she had never kept her guard up against Roanne.
However, the cold, hard truth was right before her eyes.
She bit her lip nervously and said in a trembling voice, “What should we do, Jim?”
Roanne must have guessed that she would try to kill Shelly and therefore had kidnapped her before
Quentin’s men could get their hands on her!
She knew exactly what Charlotte wanted.
Just as Charlotte was sobbing, her phone rang.
It was a call from Roanne.
Charlotte immediately pressed the decline button with shaking fingers when she saw Roanne’s name.
She did not dare to pick up this call in front of Jim, lest Roanne say anything that would expose her!
However, the phone rang again. This time, Jim caught sight of the name on the screen. “You should
take the call.”
