Still, there was something strangely satisfying about stirring the pot like this.

Carter was never one to explain much. He looked over at Nate and said calmly, "Nate, apologize to Sharon."

Nate clearly wasn't happy about it. But with Kelly's illness hanging over his head, he swallowed his pride. "Sharon, I was just messing around. You didn't have to take it so seriously, right?"

Sharon didn't seem bothered by his half-hearted tone. She smiled faintly.

"If you don't want to apologize, that's fine. Since you and Kelly are so close, testing the medicine for her shouldn't be a problem, should it?"

Nate looked doubtful.

"Didn't you just say all medicine carries some toxicity? I don't have Kelly's illness—what if it messes me up?"

Sharon leaned in just slightly, still smiling. "Sure, you don't have a terminal illness. But aren't you poisoned anyway? The first round is mild—it even includes detox ingredients. It won't hurt your face. Might even help."

She dangled the black pill betwee

    Sharon suspected it had something to do with Johanna. But she didn't press further.…After Sharon and Thomas left, Victoria turned to Johanna."Well? Did he believe you?"Johanna replied, "Hard to say. He seemed half-convinced, half-doubtful. But at least he wasn't as cold as before."Victoria arched a brow. "That's only natural. If he believed everything you said without question, he'd either be too gullible or too fake. And if he were really that foolish, you wouldn't be interested in him in the first place."Johanna nodded in agreement. "Still, I did manage to learn quite a bit from him. Useful things."Victoria's mind was sharper than hers. Johanna relayed everything Thomas had told her, letting Victoria dissect each word, weighing whether it was truth or deception.She wasn't naïve enough to accept Thomas's words at face value. What if he'd been deliberately testing her?After listening, Victoria smiled knowingly."Finding out whether he was telling the truth is simple.

    Rick wasn't shameless enough to push that far. Still, if Sharon stepped into the company with the backing of the company veterans… things could shift.His thoughts were cut short by Sharon's voice."That won't be necessary. Since I'm returning to the Kalen family, I will be part of the Kalen family. I'll shoulder the risks that come with it."Rick hadn't expected her to be so obstinate."Sharon, I'm doing this for your sake. And we're not taking your shares for free. It's an equal exchange. There's no difference between original shares and common shares."Sharon's lips curved into a light smile."If there's truly no difference, then why insist on making the change? If you dislike holding original shares, I could always purchase them from you myself."Her words stunned him into a disbelieving laugh."You? Buy out my shares? With what?"But Sharon didn't flare up at his mockery. Her tone remained calm."Rick, don't worry. Even between siblings, accounts must be clear. I'll neve

    Richard said, "Sharon, what happened before… it was indeed my fault. I should never have spoken those harsh words. All these years, I've been waiting—telling myself that if you would just reach out, I would let go of the past without hesitation. Sharon…"He was preparing to launch into a long, sentimental speech, but Sharon cut him off."Since you admit the matter was your mistake, let us first handle the legal procedure to change my identity. It won't take long. Soon, I'll be competing internationally, and the spotlight on me won't be limited to within the country. By then, rival countries may resort to every trick imaginable to undermine me. I don't intend to let this become their weapon against me."She smiled faintly at Richard. "Surely, you don't wish to see me attacked over something as trivial as my academic record?"Richard replied, "You are my daughter. Who would dare laugh at you? Sharon, don't worry. As long as the Kalen family stands, I will never allow anyone to slande

    Hearing this, Johanna's heart sank.Now she was certain—the person Thomas had been searching for was none other than Sharon.Thomas continued, "At that time, I was suffering from depression. I was drowning in despair, feeling life had lost all meaning. But her music… it rekindled my will to live. In my heart, she became the one who saved me."Johanna's expression shifted into feigned realization. She did not rush to claim she was the one he sought. Instead, she smiled."And you never approached her?""No," Thomas said. "I was in no state to. By the time she left, all I found was an earring where she had been."His gaze fixed on her."Johanna, do you play the violin?""A little," she admitted. "But I'm hardly proficient.""And the piece First Love?" he pressed.Johanna's eyes widened slightly, feigning surprise. "Thomas, surely you don't think I'm the one you're looking for?"She shook her head with a soft laugh."It's true I once lost an earring, but I don't remember where.

    Johanna noticed Thomas's gaze lingering on her earrings. She smiled. "What is it?"Thomas replied, "Your earrings look familiar."She brushed her fingers lightly against the pair and said with a soft laugh, "Victoria has the same set. We had them custom-made together."He had indeed seen something similar on Victoria before, and this time his composure didn't falter. "I see," he answered calmly.Johanna arched a brow. "Thomas, you seem unusually interested in my earrings. Why? Do they hold some special meaning for you?"She asked it casually, not expecting an answer. She never imagined he would speak so directly."My benefactor," Thomas said, "seemed to wear earrings identical to yours."Johanna's curiosity sharpened. "Seemed? You're not certain?""No," he admitted. "I haven't found her yet."His gaze fixed on her earrings. "May I take a closer look?"She slipped them off without hesitation, passing them to him with a smile. "Of course."Thomas accepted them, examining the

    Sharon said, "Testimonies alone don't count as evidence. As long as Carter refuses to admit it, no one can touch him. The brakes on Thomas's car were tampered with, but the only one missing is that mechanic. Nothing links it back to Carter."Her gaze shifted toward Thomas, carrying a trace of apology. "I'm sorry, Thomas. I'm afraid I can't win you justice this time."It wasn't that she lacked resolve, but without concrete proof, Carter remained untouchable.Thomas's voice was calm. "Carter holds immense power. He leaves no loose ends. For people like us, it's nearly impossible to fight him. It's fine. I'll just be more cautious from now on."The more magnanimous he appeared, the heavier Sharon's guilt weighed."I promised you once that I would get justice for you… and now I've broken my word so quickly."For the first time, Sharon felt fully the cruel weight of reality—how fragile fairness and justice were when crushed under the heel of wealth and power.John, who had been silen
