Chapter 419

Author: Sienna Yates
The negotiation between Carter and Sharon had ended in bitter silence.

After that, with Sharon uncovering what had happened with Maestro Warner, the possibility of a proper negotiation between them essentially vanished.

And now—

The revelation that Star was Sharon.

Not just Carter—even Simon found himself at a loss.

As he drove, Simon broke the silence.

"Since Sharon is Star, I doubt she'll agree to compose for Kelly. Should we consider finding someone else?"

Carter's lips parted slightly. "Star..."

He repeated the name under his breath, his dark eyes unfathomable, lost in thoughts unknown even to himself.

Simon waited for a response. But the silence stretched too long. He tried again.

"Mr. Biggs, shall we start looking for another composer for Kelly?"

Carter finally came back to himself.

"No need," he said, his voice calm and certain. "She'll agree."

The next morning, Sharon had just dropped Matty off at kindergarten when her phone rang. It was Wendy.

    "Disgraced artist? Are you kidding me?!" Wendy's eyes widened. "The news about John hasn't even been verified. How can you cancel our concert based on that?!"The voice on the other end responded, "It's only a temporary cancellation. If you can prove that John has nothing to do with the scandal, the concert will proceed as planned."Wendy was furious. "They're the ones slandering us! They should be the ones providing evidence! You're basing this decision on a few edited clips. Don't you think that's incredibly reckless?"There was an awkward cough from the other end. "Well... this is an order from above. We're just following instructions."Wendy was about to argue further, but Sharon gently placed a hand on her arm, giving her a slight shake of the head.Wendy knew she was right—arguing wouldn't help. She was just too angry to let it go.At this point, their only option was to follow Sharon's plan: confront the accuser publicly, then push for a paternity test.…But just as Wen

    Wendy continued, "Later, it was your mom who settled the matter privately with money. Only then did the girl finally leave. But if we dig up the past now, it will only make it seem like John had paid for her silence."Sharon had experienced online outrage before. She knew that in a one-sided media storm like this, no amount of explanation would matter without solid evidence.John sat slumped on the sofa, silent and defeated.Sharon exchanged a glance with Wendy.Something like this could break a person. John had done the right thing, and yet was met with nothing but ruin.Wendy glanced at John and said softly, "That family has been blackmailing him for a while now, coming up with all sorts of excuses. This time, they got the money but didn't leave. Instead, they went public with it."She paused. "I have a feeling this was premeditated. Someone's deliberately targeting him."Sharon's lashes fluttered slightly, and a name flashed through her mind."Maybe it's Carter," she said. "

    Such a scandalous and dramatic scene quickly drew a crowd.Onlookers began pulling out their phones to record the commotion.Seeing this, a faint crease formed between Sharon's brows.Wendy was still some distance away, and it would take her a while to get here. This woman couldn't be allowed to keep making a scene.Without hesitation, Sharon called the police.The authorities arrived shortly and dispersed the troublemakers.But within an hour, videos of the incident had already made their way online, spreading like wildfire.Now, the entire internet was condemning John, calling him an irresponsible scumbag who should be thrown in jail.Fame came at a price—once someone was in the spotlight, privacy ceased to exist.It had happened to Sharon. Now, it was happening to John.Several young female pianists in the music scene also stepped forward, claiming John had taken advantage of them under the guise of offering musical guidance.They described how, drawn in by his talent a

    Sharon's expression cooled. "And what if I say no?"Carter replied calmly, "You're Theo's mother. I don't want to force you, nor do I wish to make things ugly."Sharon let out a laugh, her tone laced with disbelief. "Is that a threat? You admit I'm Theo's mother, yet you still expect me to work for Kelly—as her personal composer? For your mistress?""I've said it before. There's nothing between Kelly and me. She's not my mistress."Was that really the point?The issue wasn't whether Kelly was his lover or not. The issue was that Sharon refused and had no desire to be Kelly's exclusive composer.Furious, Sharon snorted."You gave her the opportunity that should've been mine. You want me to hand over my studio to her.And now, you want me to work for her as a personal composer? Carter, you really have a talent for bleeding me dry, don't you?"Carter's gaze remained dark and still. "I'll give you time to think. Give me an answer when you're ready."Sharon didn't hesitate. "No nee

    Tracking down Wendy and then connecting her to Sharon hadn't been all that difficult.Sensing Sharon's guarded gaze, Simon cleared his throat lightly. "Sharon, we're here… to find Star."A flicker of change passed through Sharon's expression.If Carter had managed to find this place, it meant only one thing—he knew she was Star.Carter cast a glance at Wendy. "Wendy, could we have the room?"Wendy silently looked at Sharon for direction. Sharon gave a slight nod.Understanding, Wendy turned and left with Simon.Once they were gone, Carter stepped forward, closing the distance between them. His dark, fathomless eyes fixed on her as though scrutinizing every inch."So… you're Star."Only now did he realize how little he truly knew about Sharon.In the five years of their marriage, she had never worked. Whether she had a job or not had never mattered to him, so much so that he'd never once bothered to ask about her past.What he hadn't expected was that not only could she play
