"What do you think?" Shane asked her back.

"How would I know?" she mumbled.

Shane didn't hear what she said. He kept looking down to check his phone, waiting for Cole's response.

After three to four minutes, Cole sent a message: Kendall had been caught, but Sheryl isn't in a good condition. You and Miss Charlotte better come up and take a look. Miss Charlotte might be hiding something from you.

"Let's go upstairs." Shane kept his phone away.

"Okay," Charlotte replied. She immediately nodded and followed him into the elevator.

In Charlotte's mind, there was nothing to be afraid of with Shane by her side, so she wasn't as anxious as before.

But the closer she got, the more she felt like something was wrong.

Shane asked Cole to go upstairs first because he obviously wanted Cole to bring Sheryl back so that Charlotte wouldn't get involved in this matter.

Maybe he was worried about her mental state?

Charlotte subconsciously turned to look at Shane,

wondering what he was thinking about?

"Why are you looking at me?"

"Well, why didn't you bring me upstairs at the beginning?" She looked away.

"It's enough to have Cole."

"What about now?"

Shane remained silent.

Charlotte's heart stopped beating for a second. Could it be that something had happened to Sheryl? She couldn't help but reach out and grab his sleeve. "Shane, did something happen to Sheryl?"

"I don't know. I can't confirm until we see her."

"She..." Charlotte's heart fell to the pit of her stomach. At that moment, she felt as if her body had been tossed in the air. Her legs became wobbly, and her body went limp.

She wanted to cry, but she couldn't.

Shane reached out to hold her in his arms and said, "Cole didn't say a lot. He only said that the situation is not very good. Since he asked us to head over and take a look, it means that the problem is not that bad."

Charlotte helped herself up by holding onto his arm. She opened her mouth to speak and weakly shook her head at him. "You don't understand.
