“If that’s what you think, then yes!”
“And if I refuse?”
Timothy sneered, “Then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Charlotte sneered back, “Timothy, is this your classic ‘if I can’t have you, I’ll destroy you‘ routine?”
Timothy gave a roguish laugh. “Lottie, as long as you come back to me, how could I bear to destroy you?“”
“You and I both remember our past lives. If we join forces, we can become the richest people in the world. Everything you want, I’ll give it all to you.”
“But if you stubbornly refuse, then we’ll both go down together–mutual destruction.”
Charlotte suddenly let out a soft laugh, her voice resolute. “Timothy, have you forgotten? Since I dared to break with you, I never planned to walk away unscathed.”
Timothy sneered, “You don’t need to say so much to me. I’ve given you the chance–your father’s life is now in your hands.”
“As long as we get married, I guarantee your father will have a smooth official career and rise to the top.”
Charlotte pressed the speakerphone button and placed the phone on her knee, her fingertips caressing the freshly recorded audio file. “Timothy,

you really have the nerve to threaten me?”
“Have you forgotten how you treated me and the child in our past life? And how you and Jocelynn conspired together? Now you actually want me to marry you? Do you really think I’m as foolish as I was before?”
” Timothy’s throat tightened, and he was momentarily speechless.
Who told her to have so little self–respect in her previous life?
Who told her to treat him so well back then?
Who told her to indulge him so endlessly, to be so desperate to be his doormat?
For a long moment.
Timothy, now somewhat flustered and exasperated, said, “Charlotte, it was you who spoiled me step by step in our past life. If you had just had a bit of personality, a bit of temper, if you hadn’t treated me so well, I never would have treated you that way.”
Charlotte felt a mix of emotions. “Ha–so, it’s my fault for being too good to you?”
No wonder people say men never appreciate what’s good for them.
The more you spoil them, the worse they get.
A woman should never love too deeply.
Hearing this, Timothy couldn’t help but feel a surge of regret. “…I told you, let’s not talk about the past. Let’s start over, and I’ll treat you well…”
Charlotte sneered, “It’s too late. Don’t even think about me coming back

to you.”
“The so–called ‘evidence‘ you have now isn’t even real.”
“Coincidentally, I also have some interesting things in my hands. For example, records of your money laundering and bribery, and your improper dealings with certain officials.”
“Guess which ‘evidence‘ the Freyburn Prosecutor’s Office will investigate first if they receive both at the same time?”
“Charlotte! How dare you!” Timothy’s voice was squeezed out through gritted teeth. “Aren’t you afraid of mutual destruction?”
Charlotte gave a cold snort. “Right back at you.”
“Timothy, for the sake of our marriage in our past life, let’s part ways peacefully and not interfere with each other. Otherwise, let’s see who falls into hell first.”
Timothy was silent for a few seconds, then let out a sinister laugh.
He quickly saw through her act of forced calm.
“Fine, those with nothing to lose have nothing to fear. I have nothing left anyway, nothing I can’t lose.”
“You just said it yourself–for the sake of our marriage in our past life, I’ll give you one more week to think it over.”
“If you still refuse to come to your senses after a week, then I won’t force you anymore.”
With that, Timothy hung up the phone.
“Beep… beep…”

A busy tone came from the other end of the line.
Charlotte, too, collapsed into the chair like a deflated balloon, utterly dejected.
