Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1948

Previously, Sean might not have cared about what Grace said at all.

In his mind, Grace had always loved him, and everything she said was just self-deception.

So, no matter how much he worried, it felt pointless.

To him, it was better to gamble on his looks and see if Grace still had any lingering affection for him.

If he won that bet, he could escape prison altogether.

Grace, however, paid no attention to the state he was in.

She only found his current behavior laughable.

As she spoke, she took two steps back.

Then she turned to the sharply dressed man standing nearby.

“Go ahead and read it out to him properly—what exactly he’s guilty of.”

“Understood.”

The man in the suit stepped up beside Sean and began reading aloud.

“Mr. Curtis, if I’m not mistaken, you’re implicated in multiple offenses. I’ll now go through them one by one.”

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Sean did understand what the man meant, but he instinctively put on an act.

He knew very well that the moment he admitted to these charges, there would be no turning back.

He couldn’t allow himself to fall that far, especially with Tessa standing right there.

If Tessa realized he was completely incapable, she would never continue working with him, and everything they had done before would turn into nothing.

Just thinking about it filled Sean with fear.

He didn’t want to leave himself with no way out.

At his age, ending up like this felt nothing short of pathetic.

The lawyer, however, paid no attention to any of it and continued calmly.
