Chapter 562 Lisa Committed Murder
Charlotte exclaimed in surprise. Before she could react, she found herself seated firmly at the dining table. Joe gazed into
her eyes and softly said, âYour task now is to choose the breakfast you like.â
Charlotte gave him a helpless look, realizing he had no intention of revealing the connection between her and Vincent.
She refrained from pressing further.
However, her breakfast was destined to be anything but smooth.
As she picked up her spoon, Charlotteâs phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from the police.
Charlotte initially thought they were calling to inquire about the drug she had taken yesterday. But before she could
explain, the police officerâs tone turned serious, âMiss Clinton, if itâs convenient for you, please come to the police station.â
Curious, Charlotte inquired about the matter, yet the officer claimed it was difficult to discuss over the phone and requested her to visit the police station when possible.
After some consideration, Charlotte agreed to go to the police station at ten oâclock.
Joe frowned, âI have a shareholder meeting later. Shall I arrange for Mandy to accompany you?â
Charlotte nodded slightly, relieved that Joe didnât suggest postponing the shareholder meeting to accompany her. âDonât
worry, the police station is probably the safest place. Nothing will happen.â
Joeâs gaze held a hint of apology as he looked at her. âIâm sorry. Iâll come to pick you up as soon as I can.â
Though neither of them was usually sentimental, their words somehow conveyed a reluctant feeling.
After getting herself ready, Charlotte saw Mandy, who had come to pick her up.
After carefully confirming that Charlotte was right, Mandy let out a small sigh of relief. âAre you feeling okay?â
Enter titleâ¦
Thinking about the events of last night, a hint of embarrassment flickered across Charlotteâs face. After a slight cough, she
nodded. âIâm fine, really.â
Seeing the healthy color in Charlotteâs complexion, Mandyâs worry eased.
As the two arrived at the police station, the moment they met, Officer Carter shared a shockingly grave piece of news with
Charlotte. âLisa committed murder.â
âWhat?â Charlotte looked at Officer Carter in disbelief. While Lisa had indeed been acting strangely before, she seemed
delicate and weak. How could sheâ¦
Officer Carterâs expression grew serious. âThe victim is someone you should know, the person who organized the group
outside the hotel to defame you.â
In an instant, Charlotte recalled the woman who had thrown eggs at her, which left her even more astonished. âTheyâ¦â
It turned out that after the woman was released on bail and paid her fine, she grew increasingly resentful. She secretly
tracked Durke and discovered Lisa was the true mastermind behind hiring her.
Originally, she had only intended to threaten Lisa into returning the twenty thousand dollars to her. But Lisa had reached a
point of desperation and couldnât bear the debt.
Determined to eliminate the woman, Lisa lured her to her rented apartment under the pretext of repaying the money and
then drugged her heavily before killing her.
What was even more horrifying was that after committing the murder, Lisa casually hid the body in the adjacent room and
lived with the corpse for several days until coming to this event.
Charlotte suddenly remembered the crazed expression on Lisaâs face when facing her, and a shiver of fear ran down her
spine.
In comparison, being injected with a small amount of drugs was a stroke of luck.
Later, Officer Carter took Charlotteâs statement again. His brows furrowed even deeper when he learned that she had
been injected with illegal substances. âThis kind of drug⦠is prohibited in the country. How did she get her hands on it?â
