Chapter 674


    Charlie stared nkly at the transfer interface on his phone, feeling as if his heart had been ripped ope


    n and stuffed with ice, chilling him to the core from head to


    toe.


    He didn’t know if it was because of the alcohol, but his head felt like it was being torn apart with pain, a


    ching all over his body. He stumbled back a few steps, sat down on the edge of the bed, trying not to re


    call anything that happenedst night.


    He had to see Emily and have her tell him in person!


    He grabbed his suit jacket and headed out


    Noreen ran over to him, hugging him tightly while crying,


    “Mr. James, I really like you! Money has nothing to do with it! We were happyst night, let’s start over”


    “Get the hell away” Charlie tore Nomen off, his eyes icy cold “You think sleeping with me will make me


    marry you? You don’t even know how many women I’ve slept with! Get lost before I even bother with y


    ou, and it’s best that you leave J City, or else, I’ll make your life miserable”


    Noreen couldn’t help but step back, looking at Charlie fearfully


    Charlie didn’t even want to look at her anymore as he turned around and left hastily.


    Emily had been feeling unwell ever since she got back. Luckily, it was Saturday, and she didn’t have to


    go to work.


    Unable to bear it any longer around lunchtime, she went downstairs to buy herself some medicine.


    When she returned, Charlie was sitting in the living room. He was leaning against the sofa, staring out t


    he window, not even turning his head when he heard the


    door open


    Emily stood there for a while before putting down her medicine and walking towards the man.


    She stood a meter away from him and called out, “Charlie”


    Wearing a tight, high–


    neck sweater, her face had lost its plumpness, her chin pointy. Only her big eyes remained, but the spa


    rkle was gone.


    Charlie continued to look out the window, asking coldly, “Noreen said she wired you 500k to drug my dri


    nk. Is that true? I don’t believe her. I want to hear it from you”


    Biting her lip, Emily’s voice trembled, “It’s true”


    Charlie closed his eyes and reopened them to find darkness. He stood up and walked towards Emily, lif


    ting her chin with his hand, “Emily, am I only worth 500k in your eyes?”


    Forced to look up at him, Emily burst into tears. “I’m sorry!”


    His gaze was filled with pain as Charlie gently said, “You know, after leavingst time, I never came ba


    ck. I wanted to try not to mess around


    with women or party all the time, and try to love only one person, like Jonathan!”


    Emily’s eyes widened as she looked at him.


    But you ruined my efforts, ruined my determination to love only one person, and made me feel ridiculou


    s and foolish!”


    Anger and hatred filled Charlie’s eyes. “Even if you don’t love me, at least we’re friends. For 500k, you


    pushed me into another woman’s bed? You could’ve


    just asked me for money! Why drug me? I could’ve yed along! For 500k a girl,


    I could sleep with them until you be the richest woman in J City!”


    Tears streamed down Emily s face as she shook her head slowly, unable to speak.


    “Don’t worry, I won’t take revenge on you!


    I forgot the principle that I cant deal with poor girls, it’s my own stupidity!”


    Charlie was filled with hatred as he cursed, ‘Get out of this house! From now on, do not ever say you k

    now me again!”


    As Emily locked up, her tears welled up again, rolling down his hand and seeping into his shirt, making


    his arm tremble.


    Unable to bear the pain, he threw her onto the sofa and left without looking back.


    Copsed on the sofa, Emily didn’t move for some time, knowing that this oue was inevitable
