He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 520

"Scarlett, we are both smart people. Let's not play games," Franklin said heavily. "I will personally ensure Yardley signs the divorce papers immediately. In return, I want you to stop. For the sake of the time we were family, stop destroying us. Name your price, and I'll pay it."

His true colors finally bled through the polite facade.

Scarlett let out a sharp, incredulous laugh. "First of all, I haven't done anything to 'destroy' your family. Your children are the ones who relentlessly attacked me and plotted against me. Don't try to rewrite history."

"Second, your family's current ruin is entirely self-inflicted. Did I force you to sleep with your secretary and have an illegitimate child? Did I hold a gun to your daughter's head and force her to host a drug party? Did I force your wife to embezzle charity funds?"

"You people self-destructed because of your own greed and arrogance. And now you're demanding I 'stop'? I haven't even lifted a finger against you. What exactly am I supposed to stop?"

"And finally, whether you support it or not, Yardley and I will be divorced. As for my terms, I gave them to him a long time ago. He's the one refusing to sign."

"Mr. Flynn, you need to realize that your legacy is in ashes because of your own actions, no one else's."

Without giving him a chance to reply, Scarlett hung up.

On the other end of the line, Franklin—a man who had spent his life dictating terms to others—turned purple with rage.

Hearing the dial tone, he violently hurled his phone against the marble floor.

Yardley was standing right in front of him and flinched as the phone shattered into pieces.
