Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
Chapter 1041

In his heart, she gradually felt more and more unease.

When she invited Ms. Armstrong to the Capital for a charity party, she didn't expect such a tragedy to happen.

After everything that had happened, these things were not something she could bear alone.

Without hesitation, she picked up her phone and dialed Karl's number.

It took many rings before Karl answered. Apparently he lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You're in a meeting?" Juanita sensed that he was in an unusual environment.

"Right. You're in a hurry?" He asked.

"Yes, it's urgent." Juanita didn't want to delay any longer.

"Okay, hold on a minute. I'm going to walk outside and we can talk." Karl said gently.

After about a few dozen seconds, he said, "Okay, go ahead."

Juanita said directly, "Ms. Armstrong from the orphanage is dead, and her body was found this morning on the shallows downstream of the reservoir. I mentioned to you before that I suspected she was missing, and I didn't think she was really in trouble. What happened was that Rachel, the director of the Khebury orphanage, was invited to the Capital for a charitable party."

"Khebury Orphanage, the orphanage where Joyce had been?" Karl interrupted to ask.

"Right." Juanita raised her eyebrows. Karl was a detective in the end, and he found the key points immediately.

"I heard that when Rachel came to the charity party this time, she heard that Luther would be there, so she asked the working group for a meeting with Luther."

Juanita recounted, "On the night of the charity dinner, Ms. Armstrong was due to return directly to Khebury, and the working group had a car ready, but she was nowhere to be found. We checked everywhere, but there was no sign of her."

"I had thought Ms. Armstrong had gone back to Khebury on her own, or had been caught up in something at the Capital, but found that she had not. When I contacted Khebury, no one had seen her either. I later returned to the charity dinner venue and checked the surveillance."

"Well, the surveillance video you passed me earlier for recovery. Was it about Ms. Armstrong's whereabouts?" Karl asked.

"That's right. Ms. Armstrong couldn't have left through the front door, and I've checked all the surveillance at the front door. The only way she could have left was through the back garden." Juanita affirmed. "It will take another day to fix the surveillance video you gave me. We can't see what happened in the video yet." Karl said.

"I think it's strange. Khebury orphanage, Ms. Armstrong, Luther, Joyce, Ms. Armstrong's death... Although they seem unrelated, I always feel something is not right. Too many things have happened around them." Juanita frowned deeply, "The police department have initially determined Ms. Armstrong must have fallen from somewhere and drowned. But I don't believe it. How could a person in her forties, who was not without judgment, lose her footing in a reservoir?"

"Your instincts were right. I will take over this case immediately and transfer all the information to the Special Investigation Unit. I will handle this case personally." Karl said, "There will be a reasonable explanation for all these unnatural things."

"Hmm." Juanita nodded; she only believed Karl.

"Don't tell Joyce yet. Let me do some research and I'll tell her." Karl cared.

"Good." Juanita responded.
