You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 162

Charlotte's answer was particularly satisfying to Jacqueline.

She was smiling. No doubt this was the daughter-in-law she wanted. She was mild, pretty, talkative, well-manner, and respectful, and she had such a decent family background.

"Well, that's nice and good!" Jacqueline praised.

But actually, she had heard their whisper very well. It seemed that Stephanie had been using a new drug from Mufron that had not yet been released? Now it's working. Perhaps she could still live another year and a half? What could they do?

As long as Stephanie was around, Joyce would not leave the Warner family, nor would she divorce Luther.

And her belly would be bigger in no time. And this child she knew in her heart was never to be born.

There was not much time left for her.

Her mind was heavy and her frown grew deeper.

"Oh yes, Charlotte, there is good news." Jacqueline pulled Charlotte to sit down on the sofa. She stroked the back of Charlotte's hand and said softly, "Stephanie wants to see you. I think this is a sign that she is willing to accept you."

"Alone?" Charlotte, as sensitive as she was, immediately pointed out the crux of the matter.

"Yes, I have made arrangement. The day after tomorrow, you will go to the Warner family alone to meet her. Stephanie won't let us go, Luther is in Mufron on business. And of course, Joyce will not be at home. We will keep her in the office. Even Mr. Arnold would not be there. I just gave him two days off. You'll be the only one to meet with Stephanie. She is going to accept you." Jacqueline laughed.

Charlotte's eyebrows furrowed. If she was to be recognized, why did Stephanie have to meet her alone? She couldn't help but feel strange.

She had different ideas than Jacqueline's optimistic ones.

Charlotte's instinct told her this must not be good.

Stephanie definitely had something in her mind.

Although she had never met Stephanie, she understood from the usual description of Shelly and the way Stephanie had pinned Jacqueline down, that Stephanie was definitely quite authoritative. And she would be more difficult to deal with than Joyce.

At this moment, her mind was in turmoil.

The fear of the unknown quickly overwhelmed her. She didn't know what Stephanie wanted and was a little afraid to engage with Stephanie for fear of revealing herself.

Charlotte stood up abruptly, her body trembling slightly, her face pale as she said, "Auntie, Shelly, I want to go home first. I will prepare well for the meeting, and I will not let you down!"

"Well, go. It's getting late." Jacqueline said softly.

Charlotte politely said goodbye and hurriedly left the penthouse mansion.

She walked blindly down the road, going faster and faster.

Her mind was now a mess. Various inexplicable thoughts collided with each other.

At the same time, the evil thoughts that had been there before.

Once again, it sprouted into her heart.

If Stephanie stayed alive, it would be her biggest obstacle.

She wanted Stephanie to die sooner rather than later.

But what's the best way to get Stephanie to die sooner and without anyone noticing?

She had waited too long and really didn't want to wait any longer.

If such evil thoughts were just flashing and passing by before, now it was sprouting more and more clearly in her heart. The feeling was getting stronger and stronger, and it slowly occupied her entire mind.

She thought of Ricky, a man of great depth and proficiency in crime investigation. She thought about how to talk to Ricky when she returned.

At this moment, there was only one thought left in her head - she wanted Stephanie dead!
