Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game-Chapter 408 - 223 He should have dug a hole and buried himself long ago.

The office lights were all on, illuminating the faces of the two people looking at each other.

Charlotte Miller looked at this man; in the three years, he hadn’t changed much.

He seemed to have a slightly more mature aura, a cold allure that surely attracted girls, but she was no longer a girl.

She no longer had the pure liking and admiration she once had.

"If there’s nothing else, President Hallow should leave. It’s so late, staying in my office might invite gossip." Charlotte looked at Atlas Hallow’s handsome face, his sharp features exuded an intimidating aura, and just like before, he didn’t like backing down.

No wonder he had always been spoiled by those women; thinking of this, Charlotte’s smile grew colder.

"After you left, the court tried Ava Walker and Kinsley Lee’s case, and I didn’t interfere much. They both received their due punishment. Charlotte, don’t you want to talk about what happened after you left?" Atlas Hallow looked at Charlotte, a familiar little face, yet as she looked at him, there was a sense of unfamiliarity as if meeting for the first time.

"I’m not interested in hearing about this. Even you have nothing to do with me, let alone the Hallow Family and all those women of yours?" Charlotte had no idea where this man got the courage and face to talk about these things in front of her.

"Charlotte, don’t live in the world you think you know. If you don’t listen to my explanation, how will you understand?" The pain in Atlas Hallow’s voice was deep and profound.

He had waited three years, over a thousand days, day and night hoping, only to be met with this woman’s cold sneers and rejection; she wouldn’t even give him a chance to speak.

"Fine, speak, I’m listening." And hurry up and leave; seeing this face constantly reminded her of her past naivety.

Charlotte lazily sat on the sofa; perhaps the experiences of these years had made her more composed to some extent,

.

Facing Atlas Hallow, her mood could become somewhat peaceful. Perhaps with less love, there was less turmoil.

"I caught Ava Walker, just that night when you were held at the police station, I had people find Ava Walker. I was certain you didn’t do it, and only Ava Walker could have. I used a small trick to make her confess everything..." Atlas Hallow’s thoughts drifted into memories of the past.

He just wanted to tell Charlotte that he hadn’t heartlessly left her to fend for herself.

He left her at the police station simply to prevent Oliver Baird from taking her away.

He was handling her case that night, just to clear her name and let her walk out freely from the police station.

"Later, Ava Walker confessed Kinsley Lee. I had to give Amir an explanation, so I returned to the Hallow Family overnight and had Amir come home. Since it was his mother who needed to be sent to the police to turn herself in, he had to do it." Atlas Hallow’s gaze never left Charlotte’s face, his voice floating in the air, low and dense like a cloud of unresolved gray mist.

Atlas Hallow always had a sense of insecurity, as if he didn’t watch closely enough she would magically disappear again before his eyes.

"Then why did Kinsley Lee kill Hailey Hill?" Charlotte sipped her tea, her eyes tinged with ridicule.

After all that, the man still hadn’t gotten to the point.

Hadn’t he realized what had happened all those years ago?

Of course, if he really knew what happened back then, how could he have the face to come here, righteously bringing up the past?

He should have dug a hole and buried himself long ago.

Atlas Hallow was just too confident, confident enough to think that no one could possibly do things behind his back.

"I wasn’t really in the mood to deal with these things then." He didn’t mention the car accident he was involved in, nor did he mention how he had frantically searched for her all over the world all day and night.

"When the court documents came over, I took a look; it was mostly a financial dispute. Hailey Hill said she had some jewelry in the bank and Kinsley Lee liked to collect. Ava Walker was the intermediary. Due to entanglements over interests, she had murderous intent." Atlas Hallow didn’t know why Charlotte asked this question; did she know something else?
