Then, he ended the call.

Before leaving, Charles dropped a cold sentence. "Evelyn, if you want to play this, I won't pick up Charlie's call again."

He turned and left without hesitation.

Just as Charles stepped out, a loud thud sounded from behind him. Instinctively turning back, he saw Evelyn, who had been fine moments ago, now lying on the ground with her back to him. "Evelyn, I warned you not to use these low tricks in front of me."

Evelyn lay on the cold floor, her consciousness not yet fully faded. Hearing Charles' words, she felt a bone-chilling chill surge through her body. Clearly, he thought she was faking fainting to keep him there.

In his eyes, Evelyn was just a malicious woman who would stoop to any level for him.

Five years ago, he believed she tried to break him up with Dahlia and drugged him on his and Dahlia's anniversary. She slept with him and drove Dahlia away. Dahlia was left to fend for herself abroad, giving birth prematurely to Sandy, who was frail and suffered greatly. Five years later, Dahlia returned to the country with Sandy.

Charles believed Evelyn had encouraged Charlie to fake an illness to vie for attention against the genuinely ill Sandy, driven by jealousy.
