Chapter 2044
“Tim!” Charlotte knocked on the door in desperation. “Did you actually fall for Bonnie and Luna’s lies? Why would you want to rethink our relationship? Weren’t we perfectly fine before this? Besides…” She bit her lip. “I still have to meet Roanne tomorrow to save our little Shelly!” A glimmer of pain and helplessness flashed through Jim’s eyes when he heard Charlotte’s desperate screams.
However, he could not deny the fact that she had tried to poison him.
He could not deny the fact that she had bribed the flight crew in Banyan City in an attempt to kill Harvey and Shelly. Maybe, just maybe, everything Bonnie and Luna had been saying was true, too. In the past, Jim would tolerate and take pity on her, thinking that everything she had done was just out of desperation to be with him, but at this moment…
He could not lie to himself anymore.
Charlotte had changed.
No matter how much he loved her, he would not allow someone who tried to kill him and the children over and over to remain by his side.
Love was not the only thing that mattered in life, but not only that, these were two vibrant, lively children’s lives!
“I’ll meet Roanne by myself tomorrow. You stay here and reflect on yourself. After I finish settling the business with Roanne… I’ll let you out so you can leave Merchant City.”
Charlotte’s hand stiffened when she heard this. She bit her lip, and her voice became tinged with a sob. “What did I do wrong? Why do you need time apart? “Jim Landry! Do you know how much I sacrificed for you? What gives you the right to lock me in the cellar like this?”
