You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 387

Instantly, the scene was embarrassing and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Luther's long body stiffened. In any case, the Warner family was involved in the inexplicable murder of his grandmother and the kidnapping of Joyce, and Joyce was right, if she hadn't been with him, she wouldn't have encountered these things.

Luther's cold eyes narrowed, his breath grew more intense, and his face became more and more serious.

Karl saw the situation and hurriedly rounded up, "Joyce you just mentioned the orphanage. It reminded me of one thing. I found something. His teenage activities were pretty much just in the vicinity of your orphanage. I did some calculation, and it was about the years you were in high school. So, have you seen him around the orphanage before?"

"No, because I was on the shooting team during my high school years and was not at the orphanage. So I couldn't have known these people." Joyce immediately denied.

"Is it just a coincidence that Thomas used to stay in the vicinity of your orphanage?" Karl wrinkled his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and then shook his head gently, "But all coincidences must have an untold truth behind them. This is the biggest feeling I've had since I started working in criminal investigation."

"The orphanage …" Joyce racked her brain thinking, "Or you may ask Charlotte if she knows anything. I wasn't in the orphanage all those years, but she was always in the orphanage."

"Charlotte?" said Karl with a start.

"Yes, she grew up in the same orphanage as I did and was only recently found by the Heath family." Joyce shrugged.

Speaking of Charlotte, Joyce suddenly got a jolt.

She suddenly recalled what Lauren had once said.

"I showed Charlotte the pills and wanted her to drug you, but Charlotte didn't agree and rejected me on the spot. Then later, the drug was lost. I never wanted to give you the drug myself."

Although Lauren said Charlotte refused to drug her at the time.

But …

Joyce frowned deeply, a strange feeling grew again.

On the day Stephanie was killed, she met with Charlotte at noon.

Although the time of Charlotte's departure and the time of Stephanie's death did not match up.

But why, why was Charlotte just always there whenever something happened?

Her mind wondered and fell into contemplation.

"What's wrong? Did you remember something?" Luther nudged Joyce and asked eagerly.

Joyce woke up and shook her head in a hurry, "No."

Charlotte was now the precious daughter of the Heath family, so why would she do such a thing?

Although Charlotte was always there whenever there was something, after all, there was no any substantial connections, and she could not say these nonsense just by guessing.

Moreover, Charlotte was the one who would marry Luther later, and with Luther present at this moment, she would only tell Karl alone even if she did find something.

"If you think of something, just say it, don't just keep it to yourself." Luther frowned deeper, always feeling Joyce was hiding something.

"Nothing important." Joyce denied.

"If I remember correctly, Charlotte had come to make a statement for the Lauren case, just like she did for the Stephanie case." Karl thought for a moment and solemnly said, "I'll go back and read the statement again and check it out more carefully. Any of you, don't make any moves, don't ask Charlotte, and don't reveal the contents of today's conversation. I'm done eating, I'll go first."

With that, Karl picked up his briefcase, nodded towards Joyce and Luther, and left in a huff.
