Jim’s expression darkened as he clutched Charlotte’s bra in his hand.
As though trying to prove himself wrong, he rummaged through the dirty laundry once more, but he did not manage to find anything else unusual.
He furrowed his brows and let out a bitter chuckle.
Surely he must have imagined things?
Charlotte was loyal to him, and since young, the two of them had promised each other that they would be together forever.
Even after she was chased out of Merchant City, she had sought him out the moment she returned.
How could he even doubt her?
As soon as he thought of this, Jim let out an exhale, turned to find his laundry basket, and managed to find the coat he had been wearing that morning.
Inside the pocket was the piece of paper that Bonnie had given him that morning, but…
Jim also found another piece of paper in the pocket on the other side.
He had no idea where this paper came from and guessed that someone had probably slipped it into his pocket without him knowing.
Jim frowned as he smoothed out the crumpled note
There were only four words written on it.
[Charlotte belongs to me.)
These simple words made Jim’s expression darken.
Charlotte’s torn underwear and this newfound note seemed to point him in a direction he dreaded to even think of…
Jim furrowed his brows, crumpled the note, and tossed it into the trash can, as though it would cease to exist as long as he rid his mind of it.
He would choose to trust Charlotte at all costs unless he found concrete evidence proving himself wrong!
After all…his time with Charlotte during their childhood was one of his most treasured
memories growing up.
When Jim first showed up at the orphanage, he had been looked down on by the caretakers and even the owner of the orphanage himself.
