Chapter 712: Chapter 712 I Believe You.
Charlotte’s gaze met Justin Battleson’s; an unusual emotion silently passed between them.
Charlotte gave a slight smile and nodded, "I trust you."
The past few days had been quiet, devoid of any incident.
That night.
Charlotte entered the bedroom to find Justin standing on the balcony.
He leaned against the railing, the silver moonlight illuminating his body, outlining his chiseled features—stark, aloof, dignified.
"There’s still no news about Evelyn Curtis?"
Charlotte walked forward, standing next to him and looking up at his face.
Justin saw her, her expression relaxed yet still a hint of worry creasing her eyebrows.
He gently smoothed out her furrowed brows, "No news yet."
Upon receiving the news of Evelyn Curtis’s disappearance seemed to be evaporating from the world, Justin had deployed his men everywhere to search for her.
However, after several days, there was no progress.
Evelyn seemed to have vanished into thin air without leaving a trace behind.
Charlotte’s heart pounded a little faster, a wave of anxiety washed over her, causing her complexion to pale excessively.
She wasn’t worried about her own safely; even if Evelyn tried to hurt her again, she would only worry for her children’s safety.
"Justin, I think we should increase the protection around the children."
While frightened of what Evelyn might do to her, Charlotte feared more for her children.
Her children were her life, if anything happened to them, it would feel as though her heart was ripped out!
Understanding her concerns, Justin pulled her tightly into his arms.
With his head resting against Charlotte, he gently patted her back, soothing her unsettled emotions.
"I’ve already arranged for protection around our children, you don’t need to worry."
Upon hearing that, Charlotte could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She knew the capabilities of the people around Justin, with their protection, she couldn’t entirely be at ease, but at least she wasn’t as nervous as before.
Charlotte took a few deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.
It was no use panicking now, the most important thing was to find Evelyn as soon as possible!
"Where do you think she could be?"
A living person can’t simply disappear into thin air, even death leaves traces behind!
Justin’s face turned serious, "What are your thoughts?"
"For her to escape from prison, it’s not as simple as it seems, there must be a powerful force pulling strings from behind."
Prison isn’t just any place, escaping from such intense surveillance is nearly impossible.
She didn’t believe that Evelyn could have escaped on her own!
"I just can’t figure out who it is."
Justin met her inquiring gaze and shook his head. He had been pondering for several days, but there was no lead.
"Once I find him, I will not let him off easily!"
Seeing Charlotte’s slightly furrowed brows, Justin, not fond of her distressed look, gently kissed her.
"I will dispatch more people to continue the search. You don’t need to worry about this."
A chilling glint flashed in his eyes, clear as day.
He wasn’t a pushover. Those who dared to harm his loved ones must be prepared for a fate worse than death!
"Mm."
Charlotte nodded, giving him a faint smile, "You should freshen up first."
Watching Justin’s figure disappear from the balcony, she finally took out her phone from her cloak pocket.
She dialed a number from her contacts.
Even though Justin was doing everything he could to investigate, she couldn’t rest easy.
Charlotte didn’t doubt his capabilities, but at this time, the more people involved, the quicker the matter would be resolved.
She couldn’t bear to live in fear and anxiety day after day.
After several short rings, the call was answered.
Henry Thompson’s lazy voice came from the other end, "Charlotte, what’s up so late?"
She cut to the chase, "Henry, Evelyn Curtis is missing."
