Isaac hesitated, then sent someone to deliver Whitney’s belongings to her room before he explained the whole story to her.

When Charles jumped into the sea, all Isaac heard was the sound. He had no idea when Charles had jumped, let alone where Charles had been shot.

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Newton. I was under anesthesia at that time. As for Mr. Newton… I’m not. sure about his condition.” Isaac lowered his head in frustration.

If he had been able to save Charles in time, everything would’ve been fine.

She had thought that coming there would allow her to see the person she had been longing. for. Yet, reality dealt her a harsh blow. Not only did she not meet him, but his fate remained unknown to that day.

Seeing the red veins in Whitney’s eyes, Isaac knew she hadn’t been resting well the days.

After all, having someone familiar with Muprary assisting in the investigation would simplify things considerably.
