Chapter 1446 The Culprit
When Ben examined the photo, he was shocked by it. “That’s Francesco? This is a picture of a young man. In fact,
he looks like a teenager.”
“It was taken a few years ago.” Doing a quick calculation in her head, Charlotte added, “Around seven to eight
years ago.”
“Even then, he’s still very young. This means that he’s probably in his twenties now.” He was astounded. “All this
while, I’ve assumed that Francesco’s an old man.”
“Me too.” She nodded. “Therefore, we’ve been barking up the wrong tree. Anyway, you should start your
investigations anew. I have also sent the picture to Bruce, but you can investigate through other means.”
“I’ll get to it right away.” Ben then hurried away with the photo.
“Ms. Lindberg, as for these medical books, I need to refer them to traditional medicine specialists because this is
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnot within my area of expertise.” Holding the books, Raina added, “Also, do you mind if I scan these and send them
to Dr. Wright so that we can look at them together?”
“At this juncture, such things no longer matter,” Charlotte replied. “Anyway, get it done quickly.”
“All right.”
After everyone had left, Charlotte looked at Zachary despondently. She then walked over to the bedside and pulled
the covers up around him. Gently stroking his face, she vowed softly, “I will definitely save you!”
At that moment, her phone vibrated. It was Michael on the line. Holding her phone, she walked out to the balcony
and answered the call, “Hi, Michael!”
“Charlotte, I’m sorry. I hope I’m not bothering you.” Michael was gentle and caring as usual.
“It’s fine. What’s up?” she asked softly.
“You haven’t been replying to my messages over the last few days, so I was worried about you. Anyway, I just want
to tell you that I’m returning to M Nation tomorrow. I wonder if you have the time to—”
“Michael, I’m sorry. I won’t be free these days. I wish you a safe journey back.”
“All right.” Michael sounded disappointed. “In that case, please keep in touch with me. If you run into any problem,
you can look me up anytime.”
“Thank you.” Just when Charlotte was about to end the call, she heard a voice in the background. “Ms. Brown, you
can’t go in. Ms. Brown—”
“Michael, I don’t want to go back to M Nation. I want to stay here in H City to look for Hector—”
“Helena!” Michael shouted. He then said to Charlotte in a low voice, “Charlotte, I’ve got to go. Sorry.”
“Bye.” Charlotte frowned after ending the call.
That was Helena’s voice just now. Despite how long it has been, she still pines for Hector. She is undoubtedly
devoted to him. Unfortunately, it never ends well for the wicked.
Just as she was about to re-enter the room, she caught a glimpse of the flowerpot on the balcony. It reminded her
of how Zachary was struck by a vase at the hotel.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMichael’s investigations revealed that a cat had accidentally knocked over the vase, but she remained unconvinced
and kept feeling that something was odd about the incident. Unfortunately, she did not have the time to investigate
further as Zachary’s condition had begun to worsen.
In hindsight, she wondered if someone had done it out of vengeance.
Could Helena have been that person?
As that speculation flashed across her mind, Charlotte felt her chest tightening.
If someone did it to seek vengeance, I wouldn’t let the matter slide easily. If Zachary hadn’t been hit by the vase,
his condition wouldn’t have deteriorated so quickly. Therefore, the person who threw the vase is the real culprit,
and I will make whoever did it pay for it!
Holding that thought, Charlotte went to seek Ben right away. After sharing her speculations with him, she sent him
off to reinvestigate the matter.
“All right. I understand. I’ll get to it right away.” Ben nodded. “As for the photo, I have already made copies of it, so
I’m returning the original to you.”
“Mmm.” Charlotte received it. “Go now.”
With that, Ben left hurriedly. Initially, she intended to return to Zachary’s room, but when she stepped out of the
study, she suddenly saw Gamma walking out of the bedroom while hugging her doll. “Aunt Charlotte…”q
