Perhaps it was Atlas Hallow's calm demeanor from the start.
Perhaps it was the way he spoke with such apparent sincerity, that Charlotte Miller let down all her defenses in such a short time.
When she drank that glass of red wine, she hesitated briefly but thought she might have watched too many movies; how could he drug her?
Moreover, Atlas Hallow openly replaced her wine glass, leaving Charlotte a bit embarrassed.
Then she drank freely, but soon after, she felt the light in front of her starting to dim.
The only thing visible was Atlas Hallow's face shrouded in darkness, his sharp eyes exuding a chilling threat…
If time could reverse back to the moment she first met Atlas Hallow, she would never have believed a word he said.
She wouldn't believe his talk of mutual well-being, nor that it was just a final dinner, nor could she believe he would let her go peacefully.
If time could rewind, after notifying Jack Smith, she should have had a lawyer come and take her away.
