ANMELDENJamie said coldly, "Are you trying to keep me occupied for Thomas?"As the head of the Walton family, tricks like this held little meaning in front of him.Marina replied, "Thomas dislikes you. Jamie, you really shouldn't keep following Sharon around all the time."Jamie's expression remained blank. "Sharon also dislikes you. Why don't I see you staying away from Thomas?"Marina raised her index finger and gently wagged it."First of all, Sharon doesn't dislike me. Second, if she really ends up with Thomas, I'll automatically keep my distance and absolutely won't interfere with them. But you, Jamie—can you make the same promise?"Jamie's eyes darkened.Marina smiled faintly. "Jamie, when she was single, you pursuing her was your right. But once she's in a relationship, using underhanded methods to interfere—that crosses a line."I don't consider myself someone with particularly high moral standards, but being a mistress is something I won't do."Jamie immediately caught the im
Leo looked at Lucas's visibly shaken expression and continued, "Also, back then, Lex was into racing too, and he was very interested in X. Victoria and Lex weren't that familiar with each other at the time either."Think about it—Sharon was far more beautiful than Victoria, and she wasn't married yet. Once Sharon's identity was exposed, do you think Lex would have fallen for her?"If Sharon got to know Lex and you as well, and then joined you all in racing, with her driving skills, she would have definitely stood out."What would Victoria, the so-called top socialite, even amount to then?"Otherwise, why would Cole and Victoria see Sharon as such a threat?"With just a few sentences, Leo had shifted all the blame onto Cole, precisely striking at Lucas's unwillingness to admit his own mistakes.Lucas asked, "So… Cole actually knew all along that Sharon was X. He framed her just to keep her from becoming a threat to Victoria?"Leo lowered his voice. "It's very possible. Have you f
More than anything, it was the person Lucas had been looking for all these years—X herself.With no better excuse, Lucas could only offer an apology."Sharon… I'm really sorry about what happened last time."Sharon had no goodwill toward anyone who was close to Lex, Cole, or Victoria. Her expression remained cool and detached."I've received your apology. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."Lucas instinctively moved to follow her, but Thomas stepped in front of him—blocking his path.Being interrupted repeatedly while speaking to Sharon had already soured Lucas's mood. Now, with Thomas obstructing him, his expression turned even uglier."What do you want?"Thomas smiled faintly. "Lucas, have you ever considered that Sharon's dislike for you might not be solely because of Victoria?"Lucas's steps paused."What are you trying to say?"Thomas's tone remained indifferent."You admire X's driving skills, yet you never bothered to properly investigate anything about X.
Sharon could avoid Thomas, but once she had seen him, she could not simply pretend he did not exist. After all, he had saved her life."Thomas, what brings you here?"Thomas replied in a flat tone, "Uriah and Dr. Dole spent considerable effort on my hypnosis treatment. Since it is his birthday party and I happen to be in Marcentine, there is no reason not to attend."Then his dark eyes shifted to Sharon."As for you, Sharon… your relationship with the Malcolm family is not good, yet you seem quite close with Uriah?"He paused slightly."I recall that on the day I underwent hypnosis, you were also at Uriah's place. What were you there for?"Sharon lowered her gaze. "Little Tabby was poisoned that day. I went to see it. Uriah distinguishes right from wrong; he wouldn't take out family disputes on others."Thomas's eyes swept over her. "Today is his birthday party. Why don't I see your sister-in-law, Samantha?"Sharon's heart tightened slightly.Why would Thomas suddenly bring u
Because Katy was pregnant, the two of them did not hold a grand and public wedding.Unlike the previous scandal involving Victoria—where Callum and Victoria had no choice but to keep their marriage secret for the time being—this time, although there was no wedding ceremony, the Blakely family, as compensation to Katy, had practically invited every top-tier noble family in Marcentine.After meeting at the entrance, Sharon chatted briefly with Callum about work as they walked into the banquet hall together.Uriah had not held a birthday party in many years. His children, eager to liven things up, had worked hard to persuade him. They also invited many prominent aristocratic families, including the Walton family.Wherever Sharon attended, Jamie usually appeared as well.Seeing Sharon enter with Callum and Katy, Jamie immediately walked up to her."Sharon, you're here."She gave a light nod.After the assassination incident ended, Jamie uncovered several internal traitors.Sharon
In order to achieve his goal as quickly as possible, Leo had also bribed several of Cole's disreputable friends. Whenever Lex and Victoria went on dates, these people would deliberately stir things up in front of Cole, acting as though they were speaking up for him.When the Malcolm Group came under attack, when Lex was schemed against and made a decision error, they would fan the flames—praising Cole as no worse than Lex.Day after day of such psychological manipulation, combined with his ambition to obtain both Victoria and power, finally made Cole waver.The poison that afflicted Lex had also been obtained by Leo from that mysterious man.After three years, all of these plans were finally brought to completion.The man standing in the shadows stepped forward and handed a document folder to Leo."These are all the secrets of the Colt family."Leo froze slightly and instinctively looked up at him.A ferocious ghost mask stared back from the dim light, eerie and unsettling.Bu
People like Uriah, without power or background, weren't worth pretending for anymore. Kelly didn't bother to keep up the act.During those few days at Uriah's clinic, she'd even toyed with the idea of poisoning Uriah. It would serve him right for siding with Sharon and making things harder for her.
Kelly paused for a beat, then continued, "I heard… the sudden onset of my illness the other day disrupted your date with Sharon. Carter, since she's already found her way here, why don't you go with her? Nate is here with me. It's the same either way."Carter's dark eyes chilled like frost, the sha
Uriah had no intention of being polite to doctors like these.Turning to Carter, he said flatly, "I've told you before—I can cure that girl. But if you insist on trusting these quacks, then don't bother coming to me. I can't entertain honored guests like you."There was a quiet certainty in Uriah'
Nate's face was wrapped thickly in gauze, leaving only his swollen eyes exposed. It looked almost comical—if it weren't for what it meant: his injuries were real, and not minor.Carter stared at him, skeptical. "You're saying Sharon did this to you?"Nate's voice was tight with fury. "Yes! Her—and
