He spat, “Apologize to Jocelynn. Now. Alsó, you promised to buy her à Porsche. Remember? Well, now’s the perfect time. Think of it as making it up to her. Buy the car, or our wedding is off the table.”
Charlotte sneered coldly, “Fine. The wedding’s off.”
Totally dumbfounded, Timothy gawked at her, wondering if he’d misheard.
She used to be terrified of him leaving her, didn’t she?
Whenever he threatened to end things with her, she’d always do whatever it took to keep him, even at the cost of her pride.
But soon, he regained his usual confidence and condescension. “I’m saying that after we break off the engagement, you’ll never see me again. Our paths will never cross.
He didn’t believe for a second that Charlotte could bear to leave him.
She had sucked up to him for eight years before he reluctantly agreed to
be with her.
She’d break up with him? Yeah, right!
Charlotte, however, was so sickened by his narcissism. “That’s great. Gosh, you really should stop overestimating yourself. You know what? I want nothing to do with you.”
With this, she took off the engagement ring and hurled it straight at his face.

The ring almost hurt Timothy’s eye. Furious, he stood up, snapping, “Charlotte, are you crazy?”
Jocelynn was terrified. She hastily said, trying to explain, “Lottie, you misunderstood us.
“Timo and I … are just friends. I swear.
Crossing her arms over her chest, Charlotte snorted coldly, deeply disgusted by their act, “I don’t give a shit what your relationship is.
“I’ll tell my parents and everyone I know about the broken engagement. Timothy, from this second on, you and I are strangers.
“Bye.”
With that, she turned on her heel to leave, but Timothy gripped her wrist.
Complicated emotions surged within his eyes as he said exasperatedly, “Charlotte, if you think I’m joking with you, then you’re wrong.”
“I’m not. And I don’t care. Let go.” She shook his hand away with disgust.
Then she decisively slapped his face hard
A crisp, loud smack rang out.
Red slap marks bloomed across his cheek.
“Charlotte, you crazy bitch!” Utterly pissed off, he raised his hand and was about to slap her back.
Seeing this, Jocelynn hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. “Calm down, Timo.”
Charlotte’s two bodyguards also blocked him at the same time.

“Mr. Bradford, you may want to keep your distance from Ms. Lindsey.”
Timothy took a deep breath before reluctantly lowering his hand. “Fine. You wanna break up? Then let’s break up. Don’t crawl back to me and beg for my forgiveness.”
Everyone in town knew Charlotte was his loyalist simp.
He bet she’d grovel at his feet, begging him to forgive her within three days, tops.
“Beg for your forgiveness? Dream on.
”
Charlotte let out a cold sneer before turning to leave.
She’d never give him another chance to rise in power by exploiting her.
And he could forget about using her family’s influence to pave his way to fame and glory.
Soon, her retreating figure vanished from their sights.
Jocelynn caressed Timothy’s cheek, looking worried. “Timo, it hurts, doesn’t it? Your cheek is all red. She must have used a lot of strength.”
Holding her into his arms, he said, his eyes filled with distress, “I’m fine. Jocie, don’t worry. I promise you’ll have the best life anyone could ask for.”
Jocelynn seemed genuinely touched. “But… What if Charlotte insists on calling off the engagement?”
He curled his lip and said with disdain, his tone filled with confidence, “She can never bear to leave me. Trust me–she’ll come crawling back and please me within three days. Then I’ll ask her to buy you that white Panamera you’ve always wanted.

“If she refuses, then she can forget about seeing me again.”
Jocelynn was so moved that her eyes were glistening with tears. She stood on tiptoe and kissed his chin. “Timo, you’re so nice to me. I love you so much.”
“I love you, too, Jocie. Only you make me feel like a real man.
With this, he picked her up and entered the room.
Jocelynn’s pretty face and innocent charm were captivating. More importantly, she matched him perfectly in bed, driving him wild every time.
