The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 5727

Jacob, despite his lack of talent and real abilities, had always possessed an inflated sense of self-worth throughout the years. He had never admitted to being inferior to anyone in the presence of his wife and daughter.

So, when he suddenly spoke up in front of them and bluntly declared himself to be worthless, both Elaine and Claire were taken aback. Such words had never escaped Jacob's lips in decades. And Jacob himself had no desire to mock himself in such a way.

But before coming here, Charlie had repeatedly emphasized that he must utter this sentence, and it must be said, as it was the key to overcoming this crisis. Because Charlie firmly believed that this sentence was the crucial factor in navigating this ordeal.

After Jacob uttered these words, it felt as if his heart was bleeding. It was as if he were stomping on his own face, desperately trying to crush it, all to break down Elaine's suspicions of him. He confessed that he was worthless, that his beloved would never look at him the same way again. This feeling inflicted immense pain and insecurity upon him.

But he knew that there was no turning back once the arrow was released. Matilda was already lost, and he couldn't afford to lose Elaine as well.
