"The reason why Luna had been released from jail so quickly was Charlotte's doing too.
"She's just using Luna to get what she wants, and as for her ultimate goal, I'm sure you have a better idea than I do."
Jim gripped his phone tightly.
Many years ago, he was utterly disappointed in Charlotte's actions, but at the same time, he was the closest person to her and was even engaged to her at that time.
Because of this, he could not bring himself to break his promise to her and was stuck in a dilemma.
Finally, it was Charles who had stood up for him and exposed Charlotte's lies, and even sent Heather to chase Charlotte out of Merchant City.
However, at this moment, Charlotte had returned as soon as Heather was kicked out of the family.
It was clear what she wanted.
Charlotte had thought that as long as Heather was out of the picture, Jim would forgive her and get back together with her after she helped the Landry family through their rough patch.
"Jim, you and Father are both gentlemen and refuse to bully a woman. I knew that six years ago, so I think it's best that you let me take care of Charlotte this time too." Heather sneered and added, "After all, you wouldn't want to see her tricking your sister, do you?
"I believe that what happened with Mr. Hanson is just an appetizer. She hasn't even started on her real plans yet, so are you willing to let her use Luna?
"If you give me five hundred million dollars, I can help you."
Jim snickered when he heard this. "Five hundred million dollars? Are you insane?"
Heather curled her lips into a smirk and retorted," Don't you think your sister's reputation and innocence is worth five hundred million? Who else would have the time to follow them every day and take care of Charlotte for you, apart from me?"
Jim curled his lips into a smirk. "Well, I can choose to tell Luna about this and save myself five hundred million."
