Chapter 491 New Interrogation

The Newton residence was the only one still buzzing with activity deep into the night.

Karl had asked for a doctor from the A&E department to come.

Jasmine sat next to his bed and sobbed “Why did you do that right after you returned here, Charles? Are you truly willing to toss away your life for Gwendolyn?”

While she wasn’t sure of the details, she did receive a general summary of the situation from Gwendolyn. Hence, she more or less guessed why Charles tried to steal Karl’s keys.

“Okay. You should sleep early, Charles. I’ll find a way to plead Craig for mercy on your behalf.” Upon finishing her sentence, Jasmine left the room.

The pain and exhaustion were so overwhelming that Charles fell asleep shortly after.

A few hours later, he was woken up by a bodyguard. “You should wake up. Mr. Charles. Mr. Craig is inviting you to the garden.”
