Karen knew that if she tried to persuade him, he definitely wouldn’t listen.

He might even react the same way he did a few days ago, accusing her of siding with the Holmes family and getting angry enough to hit her.

In short, once Carlson set his mind on something, no one could change it. He was stubborn and arrogant to the core

But Karen couldn’t bear to see her children ruined. The best solution was to completely distance themselves from Carlson before his plan began.

She would leave with her children. The affairs of the Jones family would no longer have anything to do with her.

She knew that in her current situation, getting a divorce would be difficult. But for the sake of her children, she would do it no matter how hard it was.

After making up her mind, she immediately took Hope out and bought the small apartment she had seen a few days ago

It couldn’t compare to the current villa, but it was big enough for her and two children.

She discussed it with Hope in advance. As for Kevin, he was at school, so she didn’t tell him.

Karen waited until the evening. When Carlson came back, he entered the study as usual and told the housekeeper not to let anyone disturb him.

But this time she followed him in.

Carlson was about to close the study door when Karen stepped forward and stopped him.

She said, “Wait a minute, I need to talk to you.”

The moment he saw her, Carlson frowned, feeling irritated.

As for what Karen said, he didn’t want to listen at all.

He said. “Don’t waste my time. I’m busy.”

After that, he tried to close the door. He didn’t expect Karen to block the door firmly, with a determined look on her face that he had never seen before.

Karen said, “Five minutes is enough”

Carlson finally let her in. Perhaps it was her determined look that surprised him, prompting him to want to hear what she would say.

Meeting Carlson’s inquisitive gaze, Karen took a deep breath, suppressing her trembling voice to appear composed.

She continued, “My family may not be as wealthy or influential as the Jones family, but I refuse to tolerate your abuse. You show me no respect.
