Chapter 1866
“When that happens, what you did six years ago will eventually be exposed.
“However, if you make him remember Harvey’s existence, then everything will change.”
Charlotte’s furrowed brows immediately relaxed upon hearing this. She let out an exhale and asked,” Does this mean that letting him know about Harvey will prevent him from investigating what happened six years ago?”
“I guess you can say that.” Roanne let out a sigh and explained, “The only thing Jim remembers now is that Harvey was conceived with a woman he met in Banyan City.
“You can pretend to help him track down this woman. Now that he trusts you, he won’t doubt you at all, even if we don’t manage to bring out any evidence of this woman being dead. That way, he won’t be able t o find out that Bonnie was Harvey’s mother after all.”
Clutching her phone, Charlotte’s expression relaxed visibly as she heaved a huge sigh of relief. “I guess you’re the smart one after all, Roanne.”
What she was most afraid of was that Jim and Bonnie would eventually find out that Harvey was their son.
Even if Jim could not remember what had happened between him and Bonnie for the one year he was in Banyan City, he would still take responsibility for his actions should he find out that Bonnie was, in fact, Harvey’s mother.
“Charlotte.” Seeing that Charlotte was no longer as angry as before, Roanne let out a small sigh and whimpered, “I’m in a lot of pain… Can you send someone to help me? It hurts so much that I couldn’t even sleep last night.”
Charlotte fell silent for a moment, then replied, “I just wanted to teach you a lesson, Roanne.”
“I already learned my lesson, Charlotte,” Roanne said patiently. “But don’t you think it’ll be better if I can stay healthy so that I can help you out even more in the future?
“If I were to die now, you’ll have to take on the rest of the challenges alone.”
She coiled her body closer together, and a glimmer of hatred flashed through her eyes. “After being sisters with you for so many years, I can’t bear seeing you face those deceitful crooks like Luna and Joshua by yourself.”
Roanne’s words sounded sincere and earnest.
Charlotte sniffed, and a surge of warmth spread through her heart when she heard this. “Alright. I’ll arrange for the butler to get a doctor in there to help you.”
With that, she hung up the phone and dialed the Landry family doctor’s number.
With everything wrapped up, Charlotte exhaled and regained her composure. Then, she returned to the examination room and stood there, waiting for Jim to come out.
Meanwhile, in the Landry family’s drug warehouse, Roanne picked herself off the ground with the help of the butler and the family doctor.
Due to the dim lighting, the butler had not gotten a clear look at her injuries yet.
When sunlight finally poured into the room, he finally saw, for the first time, the bruises covering every inch of Roanne’s body like fish scales.
He brought Roanne into the house and said morosely, “Poor girl, you’re covered in dirt and mildew…
“Why don’t you get a bath first, and I’ll make you some food. When you come out of the shower later, you can have your meal while the doctor takes a look at your wounds…”
Roanne bit her lip as she stared at the kind butler. Then, she let out a sigh and handed him Theo’s name card, covered in blood. “Mr. Butler, can you help me make a phone call…”
