My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Chapter 584

Susan was flabbergasted.

She stared at Peter in disbelief, her voice suddenly sharp. "What did you say?"

Peter said, "It's for my sake that Jenkins gave up calling the police this time, so consider that I've taken the blame for you and repaid your life-saving grace. Let's call off our engagement."

Susan immediately shouted angrily, "No way! I won't allow it!"

She stepped back and pointed at Jenkins. "Have you fallen for her? Tell me, did she seduce you? Or have you two been colluding all along? Peter, your most beloved woman is supposed to be me! How can you call off our engagement over such a trivial matter?"

Peter sighed. "Be reasonable. This has nothing to do with Jenkins. The issue is with me. I've misunderstood our feelings for each other..."

Susan instantly shouted angrily, "What misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding! Weren't we fine before Jenkins showed up? It's her arrival that has changed you!"

Peter frowned. "I've said it. This matter has nothing to do with Jenkins."

Susan shouted angrily again, "How can it have nothing to do with her? Even now, you're still protecting her! Even if I did transfer that million to her, she's still the prime suspect in the murder of your uncle! How can you break up with me for her sake?!"

Peter felt it was almost impossible to reason with her. "Susan, I've said it's not because of her!"

Before Jenkins arrived, Susan and Keera had been at odds. He had vaguely sensed something wrong back then...

While Peter was considering it, Susan suddenly turned to Keira. "Little sister, are you satisfied now that our engagement has been called off?"

Keira was perplexed.
