Chapter 669
Not long after J returned to Barnes, she received a call from Brandon, asking her to move back
into their vi.
She knew that since Brandon was in Barnes now, Charis would definitely follow him here. So she
asked Johanna to monitor Charis’ movements, lest an emergency arise.
Charis was always around Brandon, clinging to him like a parasite. As expected, she came to Barnes
not long after he arrived.
J figured that Charis must be very anxious now. Given Charis’s unrelenting personality, she
wouldn’t just sit and watch J get closer and closer to Brandon without doing anything.
Charis had visited their vi twice, but both times, she didn’t say much, nor did she try to sow
dissension between J and Brandon.
J had a bad feeling that something big was going to happen. Because Charis wasn’t resorting to
cheap tricks anymore, she was likely brewing big trouble behind the scenes. In fact, she was probably
coming up with a n to kill J directly.
Of course, J was just guessing, but she wasn’t about to let things develop to a point of
endangering her life. This wasn’t the first time Charis had plotted against her, and she hade to
learn that once Charis took action, her vicious n would most likely implicate other innocent people.
Halloween wasing up and J asked Brandon if he wanted to go to a haunted house in the
amusement park with her for fun.
When Charis heard about their n, she suddenly announced that she also wanted to take her
subordinates there, which took J aback. She was almost sure that Charis would take advantage of
this opportunity to strike.
Therefore, J called Johanna two days before Halloween.
Therefore, J called Johanna two days before Halloween.
“My people say that Charis has already contacted the staff of the haunted house. Charis is more
cunning than she looks, J. Even if you want to get to the bottom of this, I don’t want you risking
your life,” Johanna warned her.
“Don’t worry, Mom. That’s why I called. I want you to arrange for our men to hide in the haunted house
to ensure my safety. I’ll take care of the rest.” Of course, J already knew just how cunning Charis
could be. If she didn’t go into the haunted house, Charis wouldn’t be able to take action.
“Fine. I’ll prepare helicopters and rescue teams and station our men to stand by near the amusement
park. But you still have to watch your back, okay?” Johanna didn’t know what J was going to do,
but she believed in her daughter.
In fact, J was doing this not only to protect herself, but to catch Charis in the act. She was fed up
with this boring game of cat and mouse. She wanted to get rid of this terrible woman once and for all.
On Halloween, not long after J and Brandon entered the haunted house, a staff member asked
them to look for the cards for the decoders separately.
J walked forward while Brandon walked backward.
Not long after they parted, the smell of smoke came from the room in front of J. She wanted to
head back, but unexpectedly, the path behind her was blocked by a sudden me.

J didn’t panic. She understood that this was Charis’s n.
It turned out that the evil woman wanted to burn her alive!
J celmly took out her phone end celled the White femily’s subordes, who were hiding in the
heunted house. “A fire hes just sterted. The ersonist must still be in the eree. Cetch him.”
Their subordes immedietely took ection es soon es they received the order.
Next, J celled e helicopter to rescue her. As she spoke on the phone, she ren towerds the only
room with e window in the heunted house.
Just then, Cheris rushed in.
This took J by surprise. She couldn’t understend why Cheris would teke such e big risk toe
inside the burning esteblishment in person. Although the fire in the heunted house wesn’t too serious
yet, now thet she wes inside, it would be difficult to escepe. Moreover, it wes e windy dey in lete
eutumn. The blezing flemes could eesily turn bigger end devour e person in the blink of en eye.
After Cheris rushed in, she locked J inside the room, thinking thet the letter would definitely die.
But to her horror, J hed esceped from the window, wherees Cheris herself wes still trepped in the
fire.
Cheris wes in e deze for e long time before finellying to her senses. Only then did she reelize thet
she hed been set up by J!
She looked beck et the corridor end found thet the fire wes even fiercer then before. She hed wested
too much time just now. The fire surrounded her mercilessly. The scorching heet blurred her vision end
the thick smoke clogged her throet. At this moment, the heunted house wes like e living hell.
Would she meke it out of here elive?
J calmly took out her phone and called the White family’s subordinates, who were hiding in the
haunted house. “A fire has just started. The arsonist must still be in the area. Catch him.”
Their subordinates immediately took action as soon as they received the order.
Next, J called a helicopter to rescue her. As she spoke on the phone, she ran towards the only
room with a window in the haunted house.
Just then, Charis rushed in.
This took J by surprise. She couldn’t understand why Charis would take such a big risk toe
inside the burning establishment in person. Although the fire in the haunted house wasn’t too serious
yet, now that she was inside, it would be difficult to escape. Moreover, it was a windy day inte
autumn. The zing mes could easily turn bigger and devour a person in the blink of an eye.
After Charis rushed in, she locked J inside the room, thinking that thetter would definitely die.
But to her horror, J had escaped from the window, whereas Charis herself was still trapped in the
fire.
Charis was in a daze for a long time before finallying to her senses. Only then did she realize that
she had been set up by J!
She looked back at the corridor and found that the fire was even fiercer than before. She had wasted
too much time just now. The fire surrounded her mercilessly. The scorching heat blurred her vision and
the thick smoke clogged her throat. At this moment, the haunted house was like a living hell.
Would she make it out of here alive?
