Chapter 639: Is Janet Dead

Unbeknownst to the two men, Janet was clinging to the side of the reef, panting breathlessly.

In fact, she didn't swim away at all.She was painfully aware that she couldn't outrun their yacht, sowhen those men went back to their vessel, she left her coat in the sea, swam back to the reef, and hidin a shallow stone cave.She hoped that they would think she drowned and give up looking for her whenthey saw her coat floating in the distance.

Janet hadn't had a proper meal in several days.It took all her remaining strength to escape justnow.She squatted weakly in the stone cave, trembling from the cold and hunger.

Things couldn't be that simple.

The sudden landslide, the car accident, and now the hit men who tried to kill her...

All of a sudden, it dawned on Janet.

Her "accident" was no accident at all.

Charis waited for what felt like an eternity on the shore when the yacht finally came back.

"How'd it go? Jimmy told me you found her.So where is she?"

Charis looked around the yacht but didn't see Janet.Her eyes went wide in fury.

"You didn't lose her, did you?"

Then lanky man called Jimmy glanced at his companion John and stammered, "We did replace her, andwe tried to trick her into getting on the yacht...But she somehow figured out that we weren't from thesearch and rescue team, so she tried to escape and jumped into the sea.After that, John and I looked

for her, circling the area countless times, but we couldn't replace her.We only found her coat floatingalone.She...She must've drowned.It's the only possibility."

Charis's eyebrows shot up dubiously.

"Really?" John nodded seriously.

"Janet should be dead.She jumped off a very high reef and swam for a long time.And I heard there aremany white sharks in that area.Even if she didn't drown from exhaustion, she most likely would've beeneaten by the sharks."

Charis grabbed Janet's coat and clutched it tightly in her hands.She felt no sense of relief.

Over the past couple of days, she had secretly sent a lot of people to look for Janet, trying to get rid ofthis woman before anyone else found her.

She had already made Brandon take the drug that would erase his memory.

If Janet showed up again, it would disrupt her plan.

"You can't even catch a girl! You losers! Go back to the reef and check again! Sheisn't that stupid.Idoubt she drowned! Even if she's really dead, I wanna see her body!"

Because they only found Janet's coat and not her body, Charis wasn't convinced.

"The sun's setting.How can we look for her in the dark? It was you who asked us to drown her.Youforbade us to use any weaponry, and that was why she got away.If we could've used our guns, wewould've shot her on the spot."

John was angry.He had never gotten a job wherein the method of killing had to be so specific.

Charis had ordered them specifically to drown Janet and then bring back the body.

That way, everyone would believe that her death was an accident and no one would suspect foul play.

That was why she didn't allow the hit men to use any weapon of any sort, lest they leave anysuspicious marks on her body.

"How many times do I have to tell you that you have to make it look like an accident? If there is agunshot wound on her body, the White family will replace out that it was murder.You are all idiots!"

Jimmy rubbed his temples and complained, "But it's getting dark now.We won't be able to replace her evenif we tried.There are only reefs in that area, and there's no food or fresh water there.Even if Janet is stillalive, she won't last long."

"Jesus Christ! Forget it.Let's call it a day."

Charis still felt uneasy, but she knew that the chances of surviving after jumping into the sea were reallylow.Besides, she knew that the White family was also searching for Janet nearby.If her men ran intotheirs, things would be more troublesome.

Therefore, Charis dismissed most of her men, leaving only a small group to continue searching forJanet near the reef area.
