Chapter 859
“From Quincy.”
“And how did she know about it?”
“Quincy said that the news was published online but was taken down immediately after. I guess things work
differently with big corporations, huh? They are even worried that news about the CEO getting injured would cause
a commotion.”
Goldie lowered her voice and went on, “I even heard that Mister Josiah’s car ran into the green belt area to avoid a
car that was driving in the opposite direction to the flow of the traffic. Isn’t it ridiculous that people these days
would dare to do such a thing when the traffic rules are so strict?”
“Perhaps the driver was drunk.”
Though Meredith looked unfazed on the surface, her mind was running wild.
It was another car accident caused by reckless driving.
Meredith thought that the accident was oddly similar to the one that happened to Charlie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a while, Meredith said to Goldie, “Alright now, let’s stop the gossiping. I need you to help me look into
something.”
“What would you like me to do, Miss Meredith?”
“Look into who Mister Charlie has been meeting these days.”
“This…” Goldie was confused. “Mister Charlie has been cooped up at home these days, who else could he be
meeting?”
Goldie was right. Aside from last night, the company dinner, and the time she got hurt on Christmas day, Charlie
had not been going out a lot.
Charlie was desperately looking for her and he would not have the time or mood to be meeting anyone else.
“Help me look into the night of the dinner event. See who Mister Charlie had met.”
“Sure, it shouldn’t be a problem, but…” Confused, Goldie asked, “don’t you think that it’s easier for you to ask Lucas
if you want to know about Mister Charlie’s whereabouts?”
“No. I can’t let Charlie know that I am looking into him,” Meredith responded.
“Miss Meredith…” Even more confused, Goldie guessed, “Are you worried that Mister Charlie is seeing another girl?
If so, I’d say that you’re thinking too much, Miss Meredith. Anyone could see that Mister Charlie adores you very
much and now that he is crippled, it is impossible for him to fall for someone else.
Goldie was right.
Charlie loved and adored her.
But she had no choice other than to look into him behind his back.
Seeing how Meredith looked upset, Goldie quickly said, “Give me a moment, Miss Meredith. Let me call the hotel.”
“Alright.”
After Goldie left, Meredith murmured to herself under her breath, “Charlie, I hope you don’t disappoint me.”
But Meredith was soon disappointed by what she heard.
Goldie told Meredith that Charlie had met Yena after he left the hotel. And it was then that Meredith felt an ominous
feeling.
At the same time, her suspicions of Charlie grew even stronger.
After settling her work, Meredith went to where Yena was working.
The employees there told her that Yena had quit her job.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeredith did not expect that Yena would actually quit her job.
She was suddenly reminded of Quinley Allison.
Two years ago, Yena was incited by Quinley and Meredith guessed that a desperate Yena might have most probably
joined Quinley,
The pub was crowded and busy even in the afternoon. Meredith found Quinley attending to her guest in the private
room.
At the sight of Meredith, Quinley leaned against the door with her arms crossed in front of her chest and smirked,
“What brings you here, Miss Meredith? I am really busy, as you can see. I have debts and bills to pay.”
“How much for your time? I’ll buy it.”
“10 grand.”
“I didn’t expect that it’d be this cheap,” Meredith looked at her with a look of disdain and mocked, “you could have
been living your lavish life as a rich girl, and look at you, being a hostess at a pub. Why would you want to play with
fire in the first place?”
The look on Quinley’s face changed but she quickly retorted, “Who are you to brag? If I remember, your time
wasn’t even worth three hundred dollars when you first started here, am I right?”
