"Are you saying that you want to leave me?" Shane held her shoulders with even more strength, and the veins on his jaw bulged. "Charlotte, are you leaving me and Sheryl behind just because of these two small matters? Did you even think about how she feels?"

"Is it important?" Charlotte replied coldly. "When you had me followed, you didn't think about my feelings, did you?"

"This kind of thing won't happen in the future."

"Do you still expect me to be with you in the future?"

"What do you mean?"

"The circumstances of Mrs. Fuller Senior's death are unclear. Whether you are secretly investigating this doesn't matter. What is important is that I don't know anything even though I sleep next to you every night. Do you really think that I won't wonder whether, if I die in the way Mrs. Fuller Senior did, you will make use of my death as well?"

Shane gritted his teeth. "Charlotte Emerson!"

"What? Did I say something wrong? Didn't you use Mrs. Fuller Senior's death to catch bigger fish? Did you really hide the news just because of Sheryl? Do you dare to say that without any guilt?" Of course he had wanted to use it as bait to catch Christopher.

But a bigger part of it was because he was indeed very indifferent to the death of Mrs. Fuller Senior.

Charlotte wasn't wrong. He was a cold-blooded, rational person who only cared about personal gain. However, she was different from his grandmother. She was already a part of his life that couldn't be removed. How could she not understand this truth?

Shane didn't answer her, but rather asked in a low voice, "You really don't trust me at all?"

"I want to trust you. These things happened so long ago, Shane. Did I ask you about it or suspect anything? But what happened in the end? I discovered Josephine. Do you really think I'm that generous?" Charlotte's eyes were slightly red, but she held back her emotions. She clenched her fists and said, "Today, we won't talk about these things. This is a contract."

The contract was for Shane to give up his right to Sheryl.

Shane frowned. "You should know that I won't sign it."

The child was the last chip he had to negotiate with her. How could he give the child to her?

"It doesn't matter if you don't sign it. We can talk about it in the court. Look at you... Oh..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shane had already grabbed her. He dragged her out of the coffee shop and stuffed her into his car. He tied her wrists together with his necktie. Her body was tied down by the seatbelt. She couldn't jump out of the car even if she wanted to, so she could only glare at him.

Shane took her home immediately.
