Shane chased after her, but there were three roads from the villa to the main entrance and they all led to different paths.
The neighborhood was surrounded by lush greenery, so the paths were almost hidden in foliage.
It was difficult to spot someone.
Shane took out his phone to check Charlotte's GPS location, but she had left her phone in the villa. Unless she cback on her own, it would be impossible to find her.
He wouldn't have let her run out like that. She hadn't had lunch and her ankle was still injured.
And her last sentence.
D*mn it.
How could she think that? Heidi was Heidi. His feelings for her were independent of his feelings for Charlotte. He thought of Heidi as a sister. Even if she was still alive, he wouldn't allow himself to make a choice between both of them. Not to mention, she was already dead.
But he had never been able to express his feelings accurately.
Avery was astonished to receive Shane's call, even more so when Shane appeared in front of him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What a dejected Mr. Fuller. Are you doing skind of performance art?" Avery wound down the car window. "Get in, Mr. Fuller. I know a few places where Charlotte may go. If we can't find her there, then our only option is to wait." Shane slid into the car silently. He noticed his hair and clothes were disheveled in the rearview mirror. He didn't pay much attention to his appearance when he ran after Charlotte. No wonder Avery assumed he was playing a character. He really looked like a beggar on the street.
Fortunately, his face did not look like a fool.
"Mr. Fuller." Avery turned the car around and weaved into traffic. "I have mentioned that women are to be coaxed. Did you yell at her again?" "She hitbut this is my fault?" Shane said, pursing his lips.
"Even if she slapped you, you can't be rude to her. Why were you trying to be rational with a woman?" He wasn't, but she was being illogical.
Avery could tell from Shane's silence that he had an explanation but chose to say nothing. He sighed and said, "Rick was able to snag Charlotte because he's forthcoming." "How did you know?" "Rick toldone has to be sincere with Charlotte, but he went against his own words later. He was under too much pressure from you." "You two are pretty chummy." "No harm in mentioning his past when we're about to be married," Avery joked, "Sometimes I think I prefer marrying Rick than Irena." There was a change in Shane's eyes when he looked at Avery. He thought Avery was just putting up an act. Avery pivoted toward Shane and caught a glimpse of his expression. He chuckled, "Don't getwrong. I mean, it was great with Irena, but there were many things we couldn't talk about. With Rick, it's the complete opposite. Rick is - Will Charlotte be at Rick's?" Avery's tone changed and he looked serious.
If Charlotte really went to Rick, it would make matters worse.
Shane's face darkened. If that's the case, there's no doubt he would tear them limb from limb.
Avery immediately phoned Rick, but there was no answer.
Was this for real? Avery dialed Rick again.
This tRick picked up with a trace of impatience in his tone, "I'm in a meeting." "Is Charlotte at your place?" Rick was stunned. He immediately raised his hand to stop the meeting before exiting the room. "Charlotte is missing?" "Well, she ran away after a fight with Shane. You didn't know about this?" Avery switched to speakerphone so Shane could listen to the conversation.
"I didn't know. Why are you callinginstead of her?" "Of course we would have tried to locate her via GPS if she had her phone," Avery said.
Rick rubbed his brows and realized he was too naive, or he took Avery and Shane as fools. Rick sighed and said, "I'll end the meeting right away. Should I meet up with you or look for her separately?" "Let's split up. Mr. Fuller is with me. I don't know why he insisted that I picked him up instead of driving on his own." Avery looked at the person beside him.
"Me? Driving in this state? Do you want to bailout of jail?" Shane's tone was full of anger.
"I believe that Charlotte is lost." Rick shook his head. "Mr. Fuller is frightening. Fortunately, Charlotte didn't clooking for me. Otherwise, I would definitely end up in the hospital." "Anyway, if you found Charlotte, let us know as soon as possible." "Of course." The call ended.
Avery's face turned grave. "She wasn't with Rick. Who else could she go to? Zoe?" It had been more than an hour since Charlotte disappeared. They had exhausted every option but there was still no progress. Everyone was looking for her and they had contacted her acquaintances, but it was in vain.
It was futile.
Thunder rumbled overhead.
Heavy rain started pouring.
Avery looked at the congested road and cursed. He bit out, "This d*mn weather. I just washed my H car.
"She didn't bring anything." Shane stared at the gloomy weather. He was worried about Charlotte. "Lottie is an adult. She'll take care of herself." Shane knew that, but he was still concerned about her.
She had better gone home. Even if she had found shelter from the rain, it would still be uncomfortable.
Charlotte sat in a coffee shop and stared out at the rain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was soaked and curled up on a chair like a poor animal.
The shop's owner handed her a towel and said, "I can lend you my phone if you don't have one. You should call someone to pick you up." The owner was a man in his thirties. He looked mature and had a gentle manner of speech.
Charlotte shook her head. She fished out scash and handed it to him.
The boss dried her hair with a towel and said, "Miss, I did not invite you in for your money it's raming heavily, it's not safe for you to be out there alone." "I don't have any family. They're all dead," she said in a small voice.
"What about friends?" She shook her head. They were all Shane's friends, so she had nowhere to go.
The owner felt pitiful. He sat beside her and gently brushed her hair. "If my sister ran away like you! Would definitely be worried. Since you have no family and friends and you live alone, there is no reason to run. Was it because of your boyfriend?" She shook her head in silence.
"I'll call him to pick you up. Husband or lover, you need to communicate with him when trouble arises. There's no point in sulking." "I have nothing and I probably don't deserve him." Charlotte's eyes reddened and she buried her head in the crook of her arm.
The owner sighed and continued to dry her hair. "You can stay here for the tbeing. When my sister comes back, she'll bring you a change of clothes." Charlotte stiffened.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine." The boss was extraordinarily affable.
Charlotte thought, 'There are still many kind people in this world.' She felt a lump in her throat again.
