Chapter 814 A Cunning Woman
Martha immediately turned afraid.
Martha turned around stiffly and found that Charlotte, who was standing
behind her, was still holding a phone that was playing the recording.
Charlotte’s face was pale, but her eyes were bright as she stared at Martha.
After Dr. Garie treated her, although Charlotte was still affected by the strong
fragrance of Martha, she was no longer in a headache and even in a trance
as before.
Because of this, Charlotte could resist the temptation of Martha and record it
with her phone.
Enter title…
Martha finally realized that Charlotte was not asleep at all. Charlotte even
recorded what she had said as soon as she entered the door.
“No, Joe…” Martha waved her hand and said in a hoarse voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMartha’s mind was racing, and she tried her best to find a reasonable excuse,
but she couldn’t remember anything at the moment.
Joe stepped forward and grabbed Martha by the hand.
Martha staggered toward Joe, who also smelled the strange and strong
fragrance on her body. When Charlotte told him about the fragrance, Joe
didn’t notice it, but now he felt what Charlotte meant.
“Joe, Hope forced me to do all this.” Martha thought for a moment and burst
into tears.
Martha looked at Joe with tears in her eyes and cried pitifully.
“I was afraid that you would worry about me, so I didn’t tell you.” Martha
grabbed Joe’s hand and said in a tearful voice, “Hope gave me a bottle of
perfume before he left, saying that this fragrance could control Charlotte…”
Martha carefully observed his reaction. After making sure that he would not
attack her for the time being, she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Before Hope left, he asked me to control Charlotte and let her…” Martha
suddenly raised her head. “Let her kill you.”
Charlotte felt that Martha was not telling the truth, as if she had seen Martha’s
other side with her own eyes.
Joe lowered his gaze slightly and remained noncommittal.
Martha didn’t know whether he believed her or not, so she simply continued,
“Although I can’t remember what happened in the past clearly, you are still my
son after all. So, I came up with a way. As long as I can live in the manor,
Hope can’t threaten me. That’s why I sprayed perfume here tonight…”
Martha looked at Joe with a slightly aggrieved expression, as if blaming him
for treating her like this.
It had to be said that even if it was just a temporary excuse, Martha tried her
best to patch up the lie.
Joe’s lips curled into a smile. “Is that so? Then from today onwards, you can
live in the manor.”
Martha had been sobbing with her head down, but when she heard his words,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe raised her head in shock.
“Joe, are you serious…?” Martha looked at him in disbelief. She didn’t expect
him to believe her so easily.
“You’re right about one thing. As long as you live with us, Hope won’t be able
to contact you, and naturally, they won’t pose a threat to you,” Joe said
indifferently.
“Well…” Martha frowned slightly. She felt that something was wrong, but she
couldn’t tell what it was for a while.
“To prevent your phone from being monitored, I will get someone to prepare a
new phone and number for you. Hope will not be able to contact you,” Joe
said calmly.
“Thank you, but…”
Martha frowned. She just planned to use Hope as a shield first. In the future,
she would leave with Hope.
