Chapter 112

Author: Sienna Yates
The situation was critical. Sharon had no interest in wasting time arguing.

"Carter, let go," she said firmly. "If we delay any longer, Theo's life will really be in danger."

Kelly stepped in front of her, blocking the way. "Sharon, I know you're worried too. But none of us are professionals. We can't act recklessly. We could make things worse."

"Let the professionals handle it," she added. "That's the safest way."

"Professionals?" Sharon let out a cold, sharp laugh. "If he were really a professional, he wouldn't be jumping straight to CPR without thinking."

The man's face flushed. "He's struggling to breathe. If his heart stops, CPR is the only option to stabilize him. What's wrong with that?!"

Then his voice sharpened. "Get out of the way, woman. Just because that man offered ten million, doesn't mean you get to pretend you know what you're doing!"

Kelly's voice was almost pleading now. "Sharon, this is a life we're talking about. Theo's in real danger. If this is about money,

    Time passed in silence until Carter spoke again."Whatever the case, whatever happened between me and Kelly is in the past now. She doesn't have much time left. There's no point in talking about this anymore. Don't you want Theo to have a complete family?"He didn't deny it—that was admission enough.Sharon hadn't expected it, not like this. In the end, she'd still become Kelly's replacement, just by another name.How pathetic, she thought. On all those sleepless nights—nights when Carter had ignored her, forgotten her—she'd still clung to memories of how he had once protected her, stood up for her, been kind to her.She'd comforted herself, told herself lies to get through it. She had convinced herself that he had, at some point, truly cared.But now even those fragments of warmth felt like a joke.She said, "Because Kelly doesn't have long to live, because she can't be Theo's mom forever or your wife forever, that's why you haven't brought up divorce yet, isn't it?"If Kelly

    Carter's eyes darkened.Fights between him, Sharon, and their son—those had always been within the bounds of their fractured little family of three. But now, things had escalated—Sharon was at war with his mother, too.That morning, he'd gotten a call from his mother.Madeline hadn't minced words: if he didn't divorce Sharon, then he might as well cut ties with her altogether.And Sharon—well, she had made her position painfully clear when she slapped him across the face right in front of his mother. She hadn't left even a sliver of room for retreat."Sharon, what's going on with you lately?" he asked, trying to keep his voice even. "You weren't like this before."She looked at him coldly. "You think I've changed? That's only because you're used to having the upper hand—and now, you don't. And me? What have I gotten out of this marriage? A cheating husband. A child who doesn't respect me. And your mother's endless humiliation. What else is there?"Carter stood silent for a few s

    Kelly said softly, "Theo, you have no idea how scary your mom was yesterday. After your allergic reaction, there was a doctor on site ready to give you emergency treatment, but your mom stopped him. She insisted on using that spray you carry.""The spray?" Theo blinked in confusion. "But I didn't have it on me anymore."Kelly nodded. "I know. But your mom didn't believe that. She was desperate to find it…"Her gaze fell on the boy. She feigned guilt, and her eyes were brimming with unshed tears. "Theo, I'm so sorry. I broke the spray… It was an accident. But if your mom finds out, she's going to hate me. She might not even let me see you again."Theo said, "Then I'll make sure she doesn't find out, ever. Don't worry, Kelly. I won't tell her."Kelly's face lit up with a smile through her tears. "Great. This will be our little secret, okay?"Theo got to thinking, 'Just the two of us? So even Dad can't know? Well, sometimes Dad doesn't let me eat certain things either. If Dad ever f

    Kelly tried to explain herself. "I didn't mean to… I don't cook often, I really didn't know… I just thought it would add flavor, that it wouldn't be a big deal…"Sharon couldn't be bothered to look at her. Instead, she turned her eyes on Carter. "And you? Got anything left to say?"Carter's lips moved slightly. "Maybe Kelly really didn't understand…"Sharon let out a soft, disbelieving laugh, then turned to Theo. "And you?"Theo spoke in a small voice. "Maybe Kelly didn't do it on purpose…"Sharon nodded. "Alright then. If that's what you all believe, then fine."She thought to herself, 'Respect others' choices. Let go of the need to save anyone.'Without another word, she turned to leave.Carter frowned. "Sharon, where are you going?"Her tone was cool and detached. "I was up all night. I'm going back to rest. Or did you really think I was some kind of workhorse—supposed to be on duty around the clock?"Carter's expression softened a little. "Okay. Go home and rest for now.

    Carter was silent for a few seconds."With all the cakes available, why did you have to choose the one with nuts?"Sharon met his eyes without flinching. "So what are you saying? That I deliberately tried to harm Theo?""You wouldn't have picked that cake," Carter said, gaze unwavering. "If I'm not mistaken, that piece was ordered by Matty, wasn't it?"Sharon blinked, then understood exactly what he meant.She didn't get angry. She laughed instead. "Yesterday, Matty saved your son. And today, you're accusing him of trying to trigger Theo's allergy? Carter, do you even hear yourself?"Carter's brows drew together. "You can know someone's face, but not their heart. He's picked on Theo more than once behind our backs. Theo's suffered plenty because of him."A quiet, liquid trace of sarcasm flickered in Sharon's eyes."So let me get this straight. Kelly didn't mean any harm, she's innocent. But a five-year-old child—he's the one with the scheming mind, craftier than a twenty-someth
