CHAPTER 2058

Joshua’s house remained lit for the entire night.

Meanwhile, at Landry Mansion, Jim, too, was up the entire night.

The next morning, the butler delivered his breakfast to his room at 8 a.m. “Master Landry, Ms. Charlotte

has been shouting in the cellar for an entire night, so much so that she’s lost her voice now. Aren’t

you…going to let her out?”

Jim narrowed his eyes but did not even glance at the food he had brought. “Let her continue staying

there.”

“There are only two hours left, and if you don’t let her out soon, it might be too late…

“If something bad were to happen to Shelly because of this…both you and Ms. Charlotte will be

weighed down with guilt for the rest of your lives.”

Jim rubbed his brows in frustration upon hearing this.

He knew that, but…

He did not feel like seeing Charlotte, not even a glance.

He did not want to see what kind of person Number-9 had become.

Jim closed his eyes and sighed. “Alright. Set her free, and prepare the money and car for her. Then,

find some men to trail her and make sure nothing goes wrong.”

The butler lowered his gaze. “What about you, Sir?”

Jim lowered his head to stare at his burned palm. “I’ll just be watching from here.”

He had placed his bare palm on a burning hot kettle a few days ago to save Charlotte from facing

Luke’s wrath.

At that time, he truly cherished her beyond anything.

To him, Charlotte had been the best, most treasured woman in the world, even though she had

accidentally offended Luke by trying to harm Gwen in her anger.

Despite this, he never thought of it as Charlotte’s fault, and instead, he blamed Luna and Bonnie for

this.

At this moment, however, he could not help recalling how, in the recording, Charlotte had been

determined to kill Harvey and Shelly.

She had lied to him about being Shelly’s mother when she was not.

She had attempted to poison him the night before…

Whenever he thought of these instances, Jim could no longer find the adoration and love he had

toward Charlotte within him. This belongs to : ©.

The butler seemed as though he wanted to say something else, but when he saw how tired Jim looked,

he simply sighed and left the room.

Soon, Charlotte was released from the cellar.

However, no matter how hard the butler and the servants tried to stop her, she still stormed fearlessly

into Jim’s room.

“Jim!” She clutched his shirt tearfully. “I know what I did wrong! Please don’t leave me! I understand my

mistakes now!

“I promise I’ll make it up to you and bring Shelly back!”

Charlotte had pondered this for the entire night, and she knew that the only thing she could do was

pretend and make Jim believe she was truly apologetic.

After all, even if Roanne did not kill Shelly, she would do so herself.

If that happened, there would be no way for Roanne to deny or prove that she had not done so.

However, Charlotte would have been able to achieve this if not for the fact that Jim had fought with her

the night before.

If she failed to save Shelly and let the child die after the fight they had experienced, she knew she

would never be able to salvage her relationship with Jim again.
