Even after Her Death by Rita Bond

Chapter 387 Drop the Act

Chapter 387 Drop the Act.

At last, I had the proof!

I rushed to the sink, quickly washing my hands, then grabbed my phone. I needed to warn Carter about the Doltons. Something wasn't right.

Beep... beep.....

The phone rang several times, but no one picked up.

Was he in a meeting?

If he was, he'd have sent me a text to explain.

Had he not heard it?

I waited for a moment, but when there was still no response, I tried calling again. Once more, no answer.

He'd said something earlier about having plans this afternoon. I decided to call Damian instead, hoping he'd know what was going on. He answered right away. "Damian."

"Ah, ma'am. What might you need?" Damian asked, his voice as reassuring as ever.

"Damian, is Carl with you? I've been trying to reach him, and I'm getting concerned."

"Sorry, ma'am. I'm not with him right now. I'll check on him right away"

I hung up, my nerves getting the best of me. Was Amber planning something? Was she about to go after Carter?

But why hadn't she acted sooner?

Time dragged on. My heart was racing in my chest.

Was Carter safe?

A few minutes later, Damian called back. I grabbed the phone as soon as it rang. "Did you find him?" I asked, desperate for answers.

"Ms. Dolton set him up. She drugged him, and he's not looking good right now.

""Where is he?"

"I'm close by. I'll come to get you right now."

"Okay," I said, barely holding it together.

I was furious. Tiffany-what was she trying to do? Why was she causing all this chaos?

Just as I was about to lose my patience, Carter's name appeared on my phone screen. 1/4
