"Evelyn, have you lost your mind?" Charles snapped back to reality, his voice cold as ice.

He reached out and firmly grasped Evelyn's hand, which was about to continue slapping Dahlia. His gaze upon her was fierce and unyielding. Charles was always so poised and indifferent but transformed in an instant for the one he loved.

Tears welled up in Evelyn's eyes. She faced the man she had loved for ten years, and a wave of sorrow washed over her.

"I guess I've been crazy a long time ago."

Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped Charles across the face with all her might.

"Charles, it's over between us."

She had wanted to say this sentence to him since the moment their daughter died. From here on out, they would go their separate ways!

Evelyn withdrew her hand, her palm numb from the force.

It was the first time Charles had ever been slapped by a woman. His left cheek visibly reddened, and he glared at Evelyn with an indescribable harshness.

Evelyn didn't say anything more and turned to leave. She knew Charles wouldn't believe her. After all, he truly believed that she had schemed to be with him and hooked up with him by any means necessary. Plus, she had stayed by his side for the past five years like a mistress.
