    From this dialogue, we can conclude that she rejected him because he is too interested in money.

    She says that 'passion' is his master now, and that it engrossed him - the word passion here refers to greed, not any romantic feelings. He became in love with his money rather than her, which is why she broke up with him. His life started spiraling at that moment, until he actually became the Scrooge.
