Chapter 307
Then she thought of Christopher again. She opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but in the end, she
asked, “How did she die?”
Actually, she wanted to know more about how Scarlett’s death had anything to do with Christopher.
However, she felt that this kind of questioning did not seem appropriate.
So she changed her question to “How did she die?”
Even if she was asking about Scarlett, her voice was so calm that it might sound scary to one. It was as if she was
treating an insignificant thing.
After all, Scarlett was an acquaintance. Even if they had some unpleasant past, she was dead. All grudges should be
written off with her death. Yuliana should not treat her in such an indifferent manner.
Yuliana quickly adjusted her emotions and asked again, “How did Scarlett die?”
Although she only changed “she” to “Scarlett,” her tone was obviously warmer.
Xandria was also in a daze at that moment. She just woke up and stayed in bed playing with her phone. She
checked Twitter first and then opened WhatsApp. As a result, almost all her WhatsApp groups were blowing up with
countless messages.
She opened one of the WhatsApp groups and clicked on the top of the new message. First, she saw several
messages from last night, and she scrolled down until she saw a picture. The picture looked a little blurred. She
clicked on the picture to see it close up. However, the picture was censored, so she could not tell who it was.
All she saw was a woman who seemed to be lying in a pool of blood.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe reason why she was unsure was that even the blood around the woman was also censored. She could only
guess that it was probably blood from the color.
When Xandria saw that picture, she was still thinking about who had posted such an unlucky picture in the group
chat so early in the morning.
Nonetheless, the person who sent the picture in the group chat said: [Someone from the Lynch family was killed
last night.]
A few seconds after the person said it in the group chat, people started discussing the matter.
One of them said that Christopher was the one who took Scarlett’s life.
It sounded so logical, as though the person witnessed it at the scene.
Xandria was a little angry. Christopher was Yuliana’s husband. Although she hated
Christopher now, she could not let him be called a murderer for Yuliana’s sake.
So, she started scolding in the group chat before she finished reading the messages.
Those people who were hot-tempered also started arguing with her in the group chat.
Then, someone came out to stop the quarrel. Another also explained to Xandria that someone saw Christopher
being taken away by the police last night. Then, the other person shared several photos that could not be leaked
out to Xandria privately.
The position where the photos were taken was a little far away. It was taken casually with a phone, so it was quite
blurred. All she saw in the photo was the police escorting a person into the police car. The person’s back was facing
the camera, so no one could see his face clearly.
Despite that, it really looked like it was Christopher from the body figure.
Suddenly, she had a bad feeling. That was why she called Yuliana. As long as she confirmed that Christopher was
not taken away by the police, it would be just a
rumor.
Xandria did not know how to reply to Yuliana. She sat on the bed, scratched her hair, and sighed. “I’m not too sure
about
but…”
She paused for a while and sounded hesitant. After a while, she continued, “But everyone is saying it’s Christopher
who took her life.”
There was complete silence on both sides of the phone for a moment.
Xandria was very quiet, and she could even vaguely feel her heartbeat. Yuliana’s side seemed to be a little noisy,
with the sound of broadcast and some quarrels among the noise.
When she realized that Yuliana had not spoken for a long time, Xandria hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Yuliana. It’s just
a rumor. I heard that the police arrested the murderer last night. Since Christopher is in the company, it must not
be him. Besides, Christopher and Scarlett have nothing to do with each other. Why would he take her life, right?”
Xandria waited for a while after she said that. Yuliana still did not say anything on the phone. She panicked and
asked, “Yuliana, are you listening?”
Yuliana came back to her senses. At that moment, her hands and feet felt cold and seemed to have fallen asleep.
She took a deep breath and replied calmly, “I’m listening.”
The more Xandria heard it, the stranger she felt about the sound coming from Yuliana’s side. She asked, “Where
are you? In the hospital?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No.” Yuliana paused and said, “Xani, I have something to do here. I’ll stop talking
to you now and call you back later.”
“Okay,” Xandria replied faintly, but she still felt that Yuliana’s reaction was very strange. She hesitated for a while,
but did not say anything else. Then, she heard at beep from her phone.
Yuliana hung up the phone.
She immediately got up, walked to the trash can in the corner of the hall, threw away the small numbering note,
and strode outside the City Hall while calling. Layla or Joyce. Same as what happened before, no one answered the
phone.
When she walked out of the City Hall, Yuliana stopped a taxi. After she got on, the driver asked her where she was
going. Yuliana subconsciously wanted to report the address of the Solace residence. But when the words were
about to come out of her mouth, she immediately realized that if Christopher was taken away by the police, Joyce
and Layla would definitely not be in the Solace residence at that time.
For a moment, she did not know where to go.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll make a call first.”
Yuliana told the driver apologetically. Then, she opened the contacts and found Jared’s number.
She saved his number, so she could contact him when Winnie was hospitalized but lost the need to contact him
after.
When the call went through, Jared answered the phone quickly.
Before Jared could speak, Yuliana asked directly, “Jared, was Christopher taken away by the police?”
