After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 873

"If I could, I would never want to see you again in my life," the man's icy voice echoed through the office. The rain outside was pouring heavily, making a pitter-patter sound.

But his voice was crystal clear and cold as ice, sending shivers down one's spine.

"I... I..., back then..." The President opened his mouth to say something but was immediately interrupted by Franklin's frigid tone. "I don't want to hear about your past. This is evidence for Clare's case, and the Hipps family is innocent."

"Evidence?" The President paused and looked at the documents that Franklin had just placed on the table.

"You can tell just by looking," Franklin remained cold as ever.

The President trembled as he opened up the folder with shaking hands and flipped through each page one by one. After about five minutes, he finally closed it with a long sigh of relief. His stern gaze fell upon Franklin; it took him a while before he spoke again. "I can pardon the Hipps family but on one condition."

"What condition?" Franklin narrowed his eyes; he knew this man wouldn't agree easily.

The President silently stared at him before saying. "You come back to me."

"That's impossible!" Almost without thinking twice, Franklin rejected him outright.

The President stood up from his seat and walked towards Franklin until they were face-to-face. He didn't miss any expression on Franklin's face when he said. "Clare will be executed in ten minutes. You can consider it."

Franklin lifted an eyebrow at him sarcastically. "You're despicable!"

"It was you who abandoned me first! And now you want me back? Do you think I'm garbage or a dog? Summoned when needed and dismissed when not?"

His handsome face showed intense resentment mixed with chilling anger.

"You're the president! My mother was just another woman among many around you! It's only because she didn't have strong support from her family that... you treated us so cruelly."

"In your heart of hearts, who has left their mark? Now that you're asking me to come back - what do you really want from me?"

As Franklin accused him bitterly with each word spoken out loud, there were waves of discomfort rising in the depths of his eyes. "I... I had no other choice..."

"Choice? Are you kidding?" Franklin sneered coldly. "It isn't because I must save Clare; it's because I don't wish for good people to be wronged or justice absent."
