All this felt like a coincidence but how could there be such a coincidence?

Peter had a vague feeling that all of these were definitely related to Charlie. Therefore, he could only kneel in front of Charlie because he no longer cared about his own reputation. 1

Claire did not know what the other party had told Peter over the phone. Therefore, she could only say in surprise, "Peter, isn't your company doing well? What are you talking about? Besides that, even if you're facing bankruptcy, what has it to do with Charlie?" 2

Peter knelt on the ground as he said, "Claire, I'm so sorry for offending you a while ago! I admit my mistake and I'm begging for your forgiveness. My company called me earlier to tell me that one of my biggest customers had called to terminate their contract with us.

Otherwise, there isn't a way for me to survive in this world anymore." 4
