But no one answered for a long time. Ethan grew anxious and was about to break the door down when he heard Charlotte's voice behind him.
"Ethan."
He turned around and saw Charlotte standing behind him.
But she looked completely different.
Her long hair was gone, cut into a sleek bob that barely reached past her ears.
Her delicate face wore no makeup at all, and the new haircut changed her from soft and gentle to cool and distant.
Her eyes were a little puffy and her face was pale, but when she spoke, she didn't seem nearly as broken and grief-stricken as Ethan had expected.
"You... went out?"
Ethan was stunned for a moment before it sank in. She had always kept him at arm's length, but today, she sounded so much closer.
Charlotte nodded and led him into the room.
"I got up this morning and wanted a new look, so I got my hair cut at the salon across the street."
"Are you okay?" Ethan asked carefully.
"Mm. Don't worry." Charlotte answered lightly, then turned and handed him Noah's phone.
Ethan hesitated for a second before taking it.
He looked at Charlotte. She seemed perfectly fine, yet that only made him more worried. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
After a moment, all he could manage was a few stiff sentences filling her in on the situation with Lacuna.
The evidence from this attack was clear, and the police investigation was going smoothly.
And this time, thanks to Noah's involvement, every lead on Lacuna, at home and abroad, had been tied together.
Noah had been carrying a great deal of evidence on Lacuna's international network, which he had gathered alone over the past several days.
Combined with the evidence of Lacuna's crimes that Lucas had collected, along with his leads on the powerful forces backing the organization, Lacuna had become the target of a joint crackdown by international law enforcement. Wiping it out was only a matter of time.
However, Lacuna's campaign of revenge against Khloe and the others had stemmed from Spence and Noah.

Angela is a cho-mo... How do you fall hopelessly in love with a fourteen year old boy? How do you see a man in a boy?...
Will more chapters be downloaded? It’s been awhile and I’m still seeing chapter 1175....
When will chapter 1044 and more bd downloaded?...
This is the story that I like reading. The heroine got the hold of the situation right away. No humiliation, no injustice, which keep the readers feeling bad all the way while waiting for the right thing to settle in favor of the heroine. Good storyline,congrats writer!...
