Chapter 1467

Author: Sienna Yates
A single misstep, and one could easily fall into Lex's trap.

People like Lex were more dangerous than Jamie, perhaps—but unlike Jamie, he carried a balance in his heart, preventing him from ever becoming as extreme.

From the way Jamie and Lex handled Sharon, it was clear they were two very different kinds of people. Jamie leaned toward brute force and physical intimidation, while Lex favored schemes and subtle manipulation.

Who was more dangerous? It was impossible to say.

One thing was certain: neither of them was someone to trust. Then again, how many "good" people ever sit at the head of a family?

Scott turned to Victoria. "Victoria, has Lex told you what his next move is?"

Victoria shook her head. "Even right off the bat, he hadn't told me anything. If it weren't for Samantha, I wouldn't even know all of this was his doing."

Scott said, "Lex has a purpose behind all this—first, to help you; second… remember when he was kidnapped last time? Victoria, he claimed Sharon was t

    Silas looked at Sharon coldly and spoke in a voice full of self-righteous justification."Sharon, I am also Mom's child. The original shares in your hands should have included my portion as well."But since we're real siblings, our brothers and I didn't argue with you when you kept those original shares for yourself."However, what you never should have done was let yourself be bewitched by a man and allow it to affect the company's interests—and all the painstaking effort Mom put in over the years."No matter what, we're still family. So I'll give you a chance to choose. Between the original shares and Thomas… you choose."At some point, a razor-sharp dagger had appeared in Silas's hand.The bright, gleaming blade caught the sunlight streaming through the window, flashing with a chilling, icy glare.The corner of Silas's lips slowly curved into a malicious smile.Sharon said coldly, "Silas, what are you trying to do?!"Silas laughed. "I know asking you to kill someone is a bi

    "Sharon, are you really going to abandon all of us who have supported you wholeheartedly… just for the sake of one man?!" Angus fumed.Sharon replied, "No matter what, I won't trade someone else's life for my own benefit."Angus exploded in anger. "You're hopelessly stubborn, Sharon!"Time was running out. She no longer wanted to argue with him. She quickened her steps, walking straight out and leaving his voice behind."You'll regret this, Sharon!"Whether she would regret it someday, she didn't know. But she knew one thing for sure—if she didn't go now, she would regret that for the rest of her life.…Sharon quickly arrived at the kidnapping location.It was a villa hidden deep in a remote area.She stepped inside. The hall was almost empty, with only a single sofa placed in the center. The entire space felt cold and deserted, as if no one had lived there for a long time.Silas sat on the sofa, calmly smoking a cigar.When he saw her, he glanced at his watch."You're pre

    Thomas's phone was rarely turned off.Sharon lifted her head abruptly and looked at Angus. "Where is Thomas right now?"Seeing that she hadn't absorbed a single word of his warning, Angus's face darkened. "Sharon, don't tell me you're really planning to give up your shares for the sake of a man?"Her heart was already in turmoil.If there was anyone Silas hated most, it was Thomas. Silas had always had a sharp tongue, and Thomas had taught him more than one painful lesson because of it. Unfortunately, Silas had a short memory for pain and a long memory for grudges. In the end, Thomas couldn't even be bothered to deal with him anymore.But Sharon knew him well. Silas was narrow-minded. He hadn't moved against Thomas before only because he hadn't found a chance. Now that he had one, he would never let Thomas go so easily.Just then, her phone rang.She glanced at the caller and her heart tightened—it was the bodyguard she had stationed beside Thomas.She answered instantly."M

    Angus continued, "Especially Silas. You bought out his company, cutting off his future prospects—he hates you with every fiber of his being. The reason they haven't openly confronted you yet is simply to avoid public embarrassment."Don't be fooled by the fact that you're family. To Rick and his brothers, and to Victoria, you are a rival—someone here to seize their resources, to take what's rightfully theirs. "The wealth and assets of the Kalen family aren't trivial. History is full of examples where family turned against family for far less. You didn't grow up with them, there's no bond between you, so their attitude toward you is entirely predictable."Before, they hadn't made a move because they lacked the opportunity and reason. But now… you've handed both to them. Do you think they wouldn't use them?"Sharon's voice was tense. "What about Thomas? What's happened to him?"Angus's expression darkened. "Silas has already ordered Thomas to be taken, under the pretext of leaking

    Sharon actually had a very good relationship with Angus. From the moment she made her first decision at Kalen Group, aside from Jacob, Angus had been her staunchest supporter. Over this period, he had consistently stood by her side. Having been close to Shayla in the past, Angus extended both care and support toward Sharon in her work. Even when rumors spread that she wasn't a true Kalen heiress, Angus never hesitated to back her. Sharon had always respected him deeply.Angus said, "Thomas has an eighty percent chance of being involved."Sharon replied calmly, "Angus, to be honest, the last time my business secrets were compromised, it was Thomas who helped me get through the crisis. Not only did he recover the losses, he even managed to help me take over Silas's company."At this point, to prevent any misunderstanding about Thomas, Sharon had no choice but to recount the entire sequence of events to Angus.She continued, "This time, the leak does come from an insider, but whoe
