“Jared, if you’re just in it for the money, don’t act like you’re doing me a favor,” I called him out without hesitation.

Jared’s face turned a little red, looking embarrassed. He shrugged. “Sorry, looks like I can’t put on an act in front of you.”

I rolled my eyes. “You’re a real businessman.”

Jared paused, then grinned. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

I nodded. “Of course, it’s a compliment. But it also reminds me–businessmen only care about profit. If a woman tries to look for feelings with you, she’s just asking for heartbreak.”

Jared’s face darkened. “Victoria, I’m not as cold as you think. If you came back to me, I’d really try to love you again.”

“Time doesn’t rewind, and what’s done is done. Jared, honestly, we’re better off just making money together,” I said with a cold smirk.

Jared let out a helpless sigh. “Seeing you so calm and logical, I really don’t have any hope left.”

I opened the door and walked out, leaving without another word. I knew I wouldn’t argue with him ever again.
