Wrong Marriage and Sweet Love

Karl tapped the tabletop with his middle knuckle with a crisp ring.

At that moment, the waiter brought up two set meals. Pork Chop Macaroni and Cheese, Salad, and Tomato Bisque.

“Please enjoy your meals.” The waiter took away the empty plates, curtsied, and said before she retreated.

“Eat up. Sure enough, the fabulous Karl has noticed it all. It seems I’ve done more than I should today.” Joyce joked as she ate up.

“How come? I just noticed such a person around Charlotte and checked it out. But I wasn’t aware that there was an ambiguous relationship between the two of them. So you have made a significant discovery.” Karl praised, “Luther seems to be unaware of the ambiguous relationship between Charlotte and Ricky?”

“I’m not sure what he’s thinking. And …” Joyce said, frowning.

“And what?” Karl pursued, “To be honest, he hasn’t contacted me in a while. Not long ago, he still contacted me quite frequently and would let me know as soon as he got a lead. I heard that he’s getting engaged to Charlotte. What a surprise to me.”

“Yes, he’s getting engaged. He was in a car accident at the Clarenworth border and lost part of his memory. So, I think he may not remember you. That’s why he hasn’t contacted you lately.” Joyce smiled bitterly.

“Amnesia? So, he forgot about you?” Karl was very shocked. He had thought of multiple reasons but never thought it would be something like this.

“Not entirely. He still remembers me. Just, he remembers not much but just the days when we first met.” Joyce shrugged, “It doesn’t matter, the two of them are going to get married sooner or later anyway.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“I don’t think so, huh. If we can find something to do with Charlotte. This marriage may not be possible either. Engaged is not the same as married. We still have time. I will help you fight for it.” Karl rarely made promises, but at this moment, his eyes almost burned into Joyce’s eyes, very serious.

Joyce was stunned at first and then waved her hand, “You misunderstood, I never wanted to break them up. Besides, they both have children. The child is innocent, no matter what. What I have in mind is to find out the truth. Find out who killed Stephanie.”

“Well, got it.”

Karl bowed his head and ate, “I’ll continue to follow up on Ricky’s matter and try to find out what’s going on between the two of them.”

After dinner, Joyce and Karl chatted for a while and before they knew it, it was after ten o’clock.

It was late and they left the cafe together.

“You don’t have to see me off specially, I’m going to the subway station right ahead to take the bus. It’s not far, and it’s just the right time to have a walk around after dinner.” Joyce said, actually politely refusing Karl to drive her back.

“I also happen to want to take a walk.” Karl didn’t push it but wasn’t comfortable with Joyce walking alone at night either.

The two walked and chatted along the way.

When they came to the intersection.

Karl suddenly pulled Joyce.

“How strange, there are several military vehicles parked at the intersection in front of us.”
