Chapter 2043
However, Jim could not believe that the woman before his eyes was the same person as Number-9. He could very well pretend that he had not heard the recording before, but what about this?
What about the scene before him, the image of Charlotte drugging his food?
Even though he did not know what the drug did, he knew that the girl who had protected him at the orphanage would never have done this.
Had time brought on this change? Or perhaps… Were all his memories of her just a fragment of his own misconception?
Jim rubbed his brows in frustration and closed his eyes.
Joshua and Luna had been telling the truth.
That afternoon, just a few minutes before his life ended, Assistant Clark had managed to send a photo of the bloodstained DNA report to Jim.
According to the report, neither of the two female samples was found to be related to Shelly. This meant that neither Bonnie nor Charlotte was Shelly’s mother. These findings exhausted Jim greatly. He stared at Charlotte, who was busying herself in the kitchen, and suddenly wondered if everything he had been doing was right or wrong.
Truth be told, he had planted this hidden camera to keep an eye on Bonnie.
He could not help feeling a little uneasy after his encounter with Bonnie in the kitchen that morning, and he was worried that during her stay, she would sneak into the kitchen and drug his food to achieve her goal.
However, not only had he failed to capture evidence of Bonnie doing this, but he had caught Charlotte in her act instead…
Jim closed his eyes, and a bitter smile crept across his face.
Did this mean that everything he had been doing all this while was wrong?
No, it could not be.
