Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game-Chapter 409 - 223 He should have dug a hole and buried himself long ago_2

Back then, he also found it strange, how much could those pieces of jewelry be worth?

Why would Kinsley Lee and Ava Walker team up to murder someone for them?

But at that time, Charlotte Miller’s departure had already driven him insane, as Daniel Parker said, he was like a soulless person, and because of his regard for Amir, he didn’t pursue it any further.

With the passing of so much time, when Charlotte brought it up, it seemed this event was finally unearthed from his memory.

Perhaps subconsciously, he just didn’t want to uncover the truth of the matter?

It seemed like no one dared to mention the recording pen from back then to Atlas Hallow, and this man even started hypnotizing himself, making himself believe that nothing happened, it was simply self-deception.

"Have you said everything you wanted to say? I also know you wanted to help me back then, so thank you, President Hallow, you can leave now." Charlotte pointed to the office door; she definitely didn’t want any further entanglement with this man in private.

If they were to meet again, it would only be in the capital market.

The entire project of the Hallow Clan had already reached the mid-to-late stages; some things needed to be viewed separately, such as Atlas Hallow’s business acumen which was impeccable, stable, accurate, and ruthless beyond words.

But when it came to matters between men and women, his emotional intelligence could basically be said to be negative.

Perhaps he thought that since he didn’t actually make her a surrogate back then, it couldn’t be considered deception or harm? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Thinking of this, Charlotte couldn’t help but smile, then looked at Atlas Hallow and said softly, "We always will meet again, President Hallow doesn’t need to rush."

What she needed now was enough rest time and a pile of things she had to accomplish.

She always had to fight a good fight, to dedicate this battle to her lost child, her father, the most beautiful twenty-one years of her life, and her one and only passionate love affair.

"And return my ring to me, it was not something you gave me." Charlotte suddenly looked up at Atlas Hallow, her cold gaze piercing straight into the man’s eyes, reflecting a face full of agony.

"You never gave it to me, did you? After all, we both had our own agendas when we got married, and wedding rings are so sacred that neither of us deserves to exchange them." Charlotte looked at Atlas Hallow’s handsome face, the corners of her mouth curled in a sarcastic smile, wounding the man’s already injured heart.

Instantly Atlas Hallow’s face turned pale as paper, he said in a low voice, "Do you blame me for not giving you a wedding ring?"

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to give her one, but he had looked for many yet had never found one that matched her, because he adored her so much, it seemed even the biggest diamond wasn’t worthy, he wanted to find a unique one.

"It’s not that, it’s just that I’m not good enough to ask for the wedding ring from you, President Hallow. If there’s blame, it’s on me," Charlotte said, ready to enter her dressing room to change clothes.

If he wouldn’t leave, then she would.

After years apart, this man’s skin had indeed grown thicker.

"Have you really married?" As Charlotte walked toward the dressing room, Atlas Hallow stepped forward to grab her, urgently questioning her.

He simply couldn’t believe that Charlotte was actually married; she must be lying to him.

"Of course, unless you think I would fabricate this to deceive you? Or do you think all women should be as devoted to you as Ava Walker or your first love? Or am I not worthy of a more outstanding man?" Charlotte simply stood, fiercely questioning Atlas Hallow, "What exactly do you want?"

"Hailey Hill was not my first love." The moment Atlas Hallow heard Hailey Hill’s name, he felt utterly repulsed, but he couldn’t speak about the past, couldn’t tell Charlotte that during that time he was young and overflowing with energy, which was why he got involved with Hailey Hill, nor could he reveal that Hailey Hill and her mother had spent so long setting a trap for him.

He couldn’t say his father bought Hailey Hill’s first time as a gift for another man, nor could he talk about how she deceived him after having surgery.

All of this had caused him to think of it as the greatest mistake of his life, the most unspeakable shame, and how could he let Charlotte know about it?

"Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with me. I’m warning you, Atlas Hallow, my husband is very outstanding, don’t scheme against him, nor harm him, you cannot afford it." As she stood barefoot, she almost had to look up to Atlas Hallow. From this angle, she could just see his rugged, handsome chin, making her want to hit it with a punch.
