Chapter 859
“From Quincy.”
“And how did she know about it?”
“Quincy said that the news was published online but was taken down immediately after. I guess things work differently with big corporations, huh? They are even worried that news about the CEO getting injured would cause a commotion.”
Goldie lowered her voice and went on, “I even heard that Mister Josiah’s car ran into the green belt area to avoid a car that was driving in the opposite direction to the flow of the traffic. Isn’t it ridiculous that people these days would dare to do such a thing when the traffic rules are so strict?”
“Perhaps the driver was drunk.”
Though Meredith looked unfazed on the surface, her mind was running wild.
It was another car accident caused by reckless driving.
Meredith thought that the accident was oddly similar to the one that happened to Charlie.
After a while, Meredith said to Goldie, “Alright now, let’s stop the gossiping. I need you to help me look into something.”
“What would you like me to do, Miss Meredith?”
“Look into who Mister Charlie has been meeting these days.”
“This…” Goldie was confused. “Mister Charlie has been cooped up at home these days, who else could he be meeting?”
Goldie was right. Aside from last night, the company dinner, and the time she got hurt on Christmas day, Charlie had not been going out a lot.
Charlie was desperately looking for her and he would not have the time or mood to be meeting anyone else.
“Help me look into the night of the dinner event. See who Mister Charlie had met.”
“Sure, it shouldn’t be a problem, but…” Confused, Goldie asked, “don’t you think that it’s easier for you to ask Lucas if you want to know about Mister Charlie’s whereabouts?”
“No. I can’t let Charlie know that I am looking into him,” Meredith responded.
“Miss Meredith…” Even more confused, Goldie guessed, “Are you worried that Mister Charlie is seeing another girl? If so, I’d say that you’re thinking too much, Miss Meredith. Anyone could see that Mister Charlie adores you very much and now that he is crippled, it is impossible for him to fall for someone else.
Goldie was right.
