The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 762
After that night, Whitney felt Charles was deliberately distancing himself from her.
Although they shared a room at night, he spoke significantly less and would always keep a safe distance from her.
The enticing closeness they used to share no longer occurred.
Whitney quickly got used to him blowing hot and cold and concentrated on her work.
Just like that, their tacit silent standoff lasted for a month.
In early November, a criminal case that shocked the whole nation took place in Salinsburgh.
While the incident was spreading like wildfire on the internet, Gwendolyn was swamped with her work at Harris Group.
In recent years, Harris Group focused on overseas development, making their trading business thrive.
Within five years, the company became one of the top thirty most powerful corporations worldwide.
After an important meeting, all of Harris Group’s executives whispered among themselves, wearing especially solemn expressions.
Gwendolyn sensed something was amiss but didn’t ask about it and returned to her office. Only then did she inquire of her assistant, Joanne, who had been transferred from Angle, about what was going on. “What were they discussing today? After the meeting ended, they seemed to be talking about the news.”
Joanne was taken aback. “Ms. Harris, you don’t know about it? This incident is being hotly reported on the news. The news came out this morning and is already making the headlines of all major media outlets. I think everyone in Salinsburgh is discussing it.”
Gwendolyn nonchalantly browsed through an agreement, seemingly unfazed. “I’m too busy, so I haven’t had the time to read the news online.”
With her interest piqued, Joanne elaborated to her employer, “Just last night, the once-prestigious Cloud family was annihilated overnight. I heard all of them died tragically. The whole villa reeked of blood, and the crime scene was said to be so gory that it could induce nightmares. After all, the Cloud family was an elite household, yet they were wiped out just like that. It is said that the Cloud family’s heiress, Jessamyn, died by the window with half her body hanging outside. It seems she was trying to escape through the window. When she was found, her clothes were in disarray, and she had dozens of lethal cuts all over her mangled body. It looked like someone had a vendetta against her. Over a hundred people were there, including members of the Cloud family, the housekeepers and bodyguards, but none survived. I-It’s truly gruesome…”
