Chapter 2917
Luna shivered violently when she heard the busy dial tone from the phone.
Thump! The phone fell to the ground.
The startled Vanessa quickly came over to catch Luna from falling. “What’s wrong?”
“I…” Luna turned to look at Vanessa, and her tears started to fall. “I killed Anne.
“I killed Anne…”
Had she not been so uselessly bored with staying in the small place with Joshua, and had she not asked Anne to go shopping with her, this accident would not have happened. If she stopped Anne before she attempted to eavesdrop on Jacqueline and James’ conversation, none of this would have happened.
She was the one who killed Anne. She killed her best friend-a very important friend.
She bit her lip. A wave of sadness hit her. Her vision darkened before she passed out.
Vanessa supported Luna’s body and furrowed her brow vehemently. The police and storekeeper hurried and called 911. Later, they helped Vanessa to lay Luna on the floor by the side.
Since Vanessa could not unlock Luna’s phone, she could only use her own phone to call Jude, who eventually picked up.
He sounded annoyed, however. “Miss Chance, I’ve already told you it’s none of my business after I sent you girls to the police station. Stop bothering me, please! I’m really not interested in you.”
Vanessa’s heart throbbed painfully when she heard Jude’s impatient voice. She bit her lip and tried to suppress her emotion. “Jude, listen to me. I’m calling you because I have something important to tell you.
“Someone has killed Anne. Her husband just called, and we confirmed she has indeed passed.”
Instantly, Jude fell quiet after hearing that. After a while, he cursed, “What bullshit are you talking about?”
‘How is that possible? Anne was still alive a few hours ago. How is that possible?’ he thought.
“I’m not talking nonsense.” Vanessa inhaled deeply. “Luna passed out because she was in huge sorrow. I can’t get Joshua, that’s why I called you.
“I’m very sad to hear that Dr. Anne was killed, but what happened has happened. We need to think about what to do next. Get Joshua to contact us and come to take Luna, as well as to deal with John. I think I heard him blaming Luna for Anne’s death.
“People will often say and do something illogical when they’re in deep pain and sadness. We need to be prepared.”
She took a deep breath. “That’s all I want to say. Hurry and do what I told you. It’ll be good if you can come along. I’m afraid Joshua won’t be able to handle everything on his own.”
With that, Vanessa hung up.
Jude could not believe what he just heard while still holding his phone to his ear. All the time, he had thought Vanessa was a spoiled socialite who did not know the ways of the world and liked to play tricks on people.
When Vanessa talked so calmly and clearly on the phone, he thought differently about her.
Though, had he underestimated her all along?
He shook his head and got rid of the unwanted emotion. It was not the right time to think of this. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
After a deep breath, he used his phone to call Joshua. “Joshua, something bad happened.”
