Chapter 2014


    Bonnie’s entire body stiffened when she heard this.


    Staring at the disdainful look on his face, she swallowed her words and curled her lips into a self


    deprecating smirk. “How can that be? Even if I was the Number-9 you’ve been searching for, you’re not


    the young boy I knew.


    “You’re nothingpared to him.”


    With that, she turned around, grabbed Harvey’s hand, and strode away, all the while suppressing


    the pain in her heart.


    Jim narrowed his eyes as he watched her leave.


    Was she mocking him?


    A gust of wind blew, and the door mmed shut behind them with a loud thud that made Roanne jump.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Jim finally turned his attention back toward Roanne and shot her a cold nce. Then, he said in a tone


    so cold there was not a hint of emotion within it, “Roanne, Charlotte has treated you as her sister all


    these years, so how could you deliberately tarnish her name behind her back and attempt to drive a


    wedge between us? What are your intentions in doing this?”


    Roanne felt her blood run cold.


    She had thought of the possibility that Jim would not believe her, but she never thought that Jim would


    do it so tantly and without hesitation.


    Roanne exhaled and lifted her head to stare at Jim, a cold sneer ying on her lips. “She treated me


    like her sister?”


    She lifted her sleeve to reveal her bruised and severely wounded arms. “Look at these. She sent men to


    beat me up every time I disobeyed her.


    “Master Landry, do you think someone who truly thinks of me as a sister would do something like


    this?”


    Jim narrowed his eyes as he gazed at her arms. “Do you have any evidence to prove that Charlotte was


    the one who did this?”


    “No, I don’t” Roanne let out a sigh, stood up, and ced a sh drive on the table before Jim. “Master


    Landry, I know that Charlotte told you the reason she had left Merchant City was that she had been


    chased out by Heather.


    “However, even after losing your memories, you should know whether Heather truly is capable of doing


    this or not. Was it truly Heather’s fault that Charlotte and I didn’t dare to return to Merchant


    City after suffering our burns?


    “The answers to those questions are included within this sh drive. You’ll understand


    everything after you look through it.”


    Jim nced at the sh drive, picked it up, and started toying with it in his hand. He sneered and said,


    “You made me breakfast so early in the morning, tried to expose Charlotte by saying that


    she had stolen another person’s identity when she was young…and now, you’re using her of


    physically abusing you.


    “However, you have no proof to back up your ims at all, and the only thing you can give me is a sh


    drive to look through myself?”


    He tossed the sh drive into the trash can and said coldly, “I don’t have the time to find out what


    other lies you’ve made up about Charlotte.”


    He turned to nce coldly at Roanne. “Initially, I had wanted to tell you that as Charlotte’s sister, you’re


    wee to move into me and Charlotte’s new house to keep herpany, but now…it seems


    that everything is different now.


    “I’ll give you ten minutes to pack your bags. From today onward, don’t you dare show yourself in front of


    either Charlotte or me.”


    Roanne widened her eyes in shock.


    She stared dazedly at Jim and stammered, “Master Landry, I…”


    She thought that Jim would at least be rational enough to look through the sh drive first before


    The sh drive contained all of the evidence of the crimes Charlotte hadmitted over the years,


    including how she had found Bonnie’s brother, Jason, and lured Bonnie into Jim’s room which led


    to her pregnancy
