You Hit My Heart -
Chapter 206
Second Precinct.
Karl hadn't slept all night and strong tiredness hit him. He leaned hisback against the seat, propped one hand on his forehead, and wantedto take a nap.
Until a police officer gently woke him up, “Karl, Charlotte of the Heathfamily, the person involved in Stephanie's case, came to take astatement. Do you want to take notes yourself?"
Karl jerked out of his deep sleep, waking up quickly, he shook his headoff and said back, "Hmm."
The officer reminded, "The Heath family sent a special car to bring herhere." He pointed to the overbearing military bulletproof car parkedoutside the door, with so many people at the police station millingaround.
"I have invited Charlotte to the cubicle, waiting for you to make astatement. Ensign Ricky, who went with her to the Warner family thatday, never entered or exited the house according to the surveillance, sothere should be nothing wrong with him. Is it okay if I just take therecord?" The police officer asked.
Karl raised his eyes, he glanced in the direction the officer pointed atRicky, who was wearing his military uniform, looking majestic andimposing. This person looked introverted and patient, and he could notsee what could be on his mind, and he must be quite close to the Heathfamily.
He was a little confused. Since they came to the police station to makea statement, they could have been low-key, but with the bulletproofmilitary vehicle, what could they want to do? The Heath family wantedto show their muscle in front of the police? Of course, the Heath familydid have enough power to control the police station.
"Yes." Karl obliged.
He stood up and walked over to the cubicle where Charlotte was.
In the cubicle, a police officer had already made her hand-groundcoffee, which was still steaming hot.
Charlotte smiled and thanked him.
Karl glanced at Charlotte. He should have met her in the Lauren case,but was not impressed. Today, when he looked at her again, she wasjust like any little girl, gentle and soft, and at first glance, he could notsee any problem.
When Charlotte saw Karl approaching, she quickly stood up andgreeted him, "Hello, Officer Karl."
The face that was just smiling and thanking suddenly turned sad andshe choked up and said, "Officer Karl, I heard on the phone thatStephanie passed away. How is that possible? When I left that day, shewas fine. I just heard that she was killed by Joyce?"
Karl returned coldly, “There's not enough evidence to close the case.Stephanie was indeed killed, but it is still too early to tell who the killeris."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I should not say that much." Charlotte ducked her headawkwardly and twisted the hem of her dress helplessly.
"Tell me about the day, what did you go to the Warner family for?" Karlopened his computer and took routine notes.
"Grandma just called me over for tea and a chat," Charlotte said back.“It's not that simple, is it? Mr. Arnold just came by and took a statement.I looked it up, and Stephanie purposely gave him two days off, whilekeeping everyone in the family from home at that time. I thinkStephanie did it so that she could see someone alone, and thatsomeone is you, right?" Karl cut to the chase.
A flash of worry came across her watery eyes. Karl did have sharpeyes.
She quickly calmed down, "I'm not sure. Jacqueline arranged for me togo to the Warner family at 12 noon on Saturday and said Grandmawanted to see me, so I went on time."
"You stayed at the Warner family for about an hour. What were youdoing during that time?" Karl asked again.
"A homely chat, asking how my mother is and what she likes to do ingeneral, and that's all," Charlotte replied according to what she haddiscussed with Ricky beforehand.
"Was there anything unusual about Stephanie at the time?" Karl raisedhis eyes.
