Shane chased after her, but there were three roads from the villa to the main entrance and they all led to different paths.
The neighborhood was surrounded by lush greenery, so the paths were almost hidden in foliage.
It was difficult to spot someone.
Shane took out his phone to check Charlotte's GPS location, but she had left her phone in the villa. Unless she came back on her own, it would be impossible to find her.
He wouldn't have let her run out like that. She hadn't had lunch and her ankle was still injured.
And her last sentence.
D*mn it.
How could she think that?
Heidi was Heidi. His feelings for her were independent of his feelings for Charlotte. He thought of Heidi as a sister. Even if she was still alive, he wouldn't allow himself to make a choice between both of them. Not to mention, she was already dead.
But he had never been able to express his feelings accurately.
