Chapter 423: Chapter 402: I will accuse you of assault!

A check for 20,000 dollars!

He could never extort that much in parking fees even if he stood in this creepy place for 365 nights!

He just wanted to tell him that he couldn’t park here, but he could park nearby. With a little money and moving the car, he didn’t expect to extort 20,000 dollars from him!

The man looked unbelievably at the check in his hand, shining his phone’s flashlight on it to make sure it was real before turning away and leaving.

Julie Harrison: "..."

Of course, Julie had heard this bizarre conversation as well.

He paid all of his fines for the year?

Mr. Thompson’s style truly was burning money whenever he got upset.

However...

"Oliver Thompson, who said I’m dating you!", Julie finally realized the key point the man had mentioned in their conversation.

"What do you mean, calling me in the middle of the night if we’re not dating?"

Although Oliver claimed this, his heart was quite happy and his smile was brimming. However, he played it cool.

"No big deal. I just want(d) a divorce agreement from you!"

With that statement, the man’s intentions became clear. Although Julie had made a big decision and prepared for it, her heart was still clenching upon conveying these words in such a situation. However, she quickly recovered.

As long as she stood firm in her choice, everything would be fine!

The phone went silent, laughter and even the sound of his breath seemed to disappear abruptly.

Julie took a deep breath, trying to calm herself before speaking again: "You promised me, as long as ... you’d give Roy back to me and let me go free!"

As for what happened later, Julie knew Oliver was well aware of it. He had forced her throughout the whole night, only to disappear later!

Oliver’s calm voice, like flowing water, lingered in Julie’s ear without any of the anger previously-present when he was mistaken for another caller. However, this calmness was even more grating to her than before.

There was an impulse to tear him apart due to her lifeless calmness and indifference.

That damn woman!

How could she say their divorce so calmly?!

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Finally, the man’s equally composed voice answered, with much-concealed frustration hidden behind his three simple words, "Why?!"

"No reason. I just don’t want to be with you anymore!"

Even if she still loved him, she could not ignore her family’s life or death. Not everyone would be like Michael Gordon, who could let go of his family’s resentment and still love as always. Besides, her situation was different from Michael’s. Ivy Aretha had never done anything against the Gordon family. In contrast, Ivy had given Michael a lovely child.

And she was the one who had persisted in darkness for so many years - it was time to free herself!

"You don’t want to be with me anymore?" The man’s sultry voice, accompanied by a smoky haze, seemed to convey even his breath through the phone, chilling Julie’s heart. "So, who do you want to be with?"

"Julie Harrison, I won’t let you find a stepfather for my son. Who would dare acknowledge Oliver Thompson’s line?!"

The man’s icy voice sent chills down their spine; even through the phone the feeling was palpable. Julie knew for a fact that no one would dare to become the stepfather of Oliver’s son, especially when this man was a nightmare to the public. Killing and arson were casual matters to him.

It would only take a blink of an eye for him to destroy any foes, including the entire Harrison family!

"We two will live on our own. Who said women must live with a man?"

She didn’t even have someone she liked at the moment, let alone considering her current situation. Even if she did, she would not be worthy. She wouldn’t drag anyone else down.

"Living on your own?" The man on the other end of the phone chuckled. "In that case, who will you turn to when you have needs? A woman in her thirties is like a wolf, and in her forties, like a tiger. You’re not far from thirty years old, soon to reach that wolf-like age!"

Julie Harrison: "..."

This man...

He really was Michael Gordon’s brother. In the past, she didn’t find his mouth as outrageous as his body. Now, she realized how true Ivy’s words were: regardless of the type of man, they all shared the same perverse attitude when it came to matters in bed.

"Sorry, but I’m sexually indifferent. Mr. Thompson’s concerns appear clearly unnecessary!"

Oliver Thompson: "..."

This woman...

"Sexually indifferent?" Oliver chuckled. "Would a sexually indifferent woman float in ecstasy under me? That night, I barely knew who was enjoying themselves more while lying with me!"

Julie Harrison: "..."

Why did this man speak so nonchalantly about rape?

"Oliver Thompson, you’re shameless! If it wasn’t for your promise to divorce and set me free, I’d have accused you of rape!"

Indeed, at that time, she had wanted to die. It wasn’t exactly rape, but under those circumstances, having sex was hard for her to accept, especially given the relentlessness with which it happened.

"Then accuse me!"

As he spoke, the man put out the cigar he had just smoked and threw it away, lighting another one. The melancholic haze enveloped him while julie was painfully stifling.

Julie’s heart caught for a moment, and the familiar pain in her heart was fiercely struck open. Although it had already healed for a long time, the pain still felt fresh as blood gushed out.

The year he went to prison, he was only 14 and had just killed for the first time. The incident was because of her, as she had caused him to kill someone accidentally. Ultimately, he was imprisoned for half a year before being released.

She had always felt guilty about this incident, and for this reason, she had tolerated his heartlessness over the years. She believed the hardships she endured were well-deserved until the night her family’s fortunes changed, making her realize how little she truly knew.

"Oliver!"

Julie’s voice dropped as she called out his name. After a moment, she continued, "We’ve been at this for so long, it’s hard to tell who owes whom anymore. Let’s end it right here; stop holding each other’s faults against us. Let our family’s fate serve as the consequences, and I’ll forgive you. I don’t resent you or your childhood sweetheart anymore. Let’s go our separate ways and leave each other a way out!"
