Chapter 443

Author: Sienna Yates
Even when he had gotten divorced from Sharon, he had never regretted that either.

Yet now, perhaps because he was ill and injured, a strange emotion stirred faintly in the depths of his heart.

"Carter? Carter, are you even listening to me?" Kelly's voice pulled him back from his thoughts.

Carter snapped back to the present. That unfamiliar flicker of emotion vanished as quickly as it had come, leaving no trace behind.

His voice was hoarse. "Call Sharon. Tell her to come here right away."

Thinking he intended to confront Sharon and hold her accountable, Kelly nodded at once. "Alright."

After receiving the call, Sharon didn't rush. She took her time finishing breakfast before heading to the hospital.

Just as she arrived outside the ward, she overheard Kelly's voice from within.

"Carter, just one bite, please? If you don't eat anything, how are you going to recover?"

A few seconds later, came the man's low, raspy voice, "No, I have no appetite."

Even someone like me, who doesn't understand the violin at all, feels like listening to her play is a genuine pleasure. And she looks perfect with my brother! Wha

    All these years, Sharon had lived adrift, never once enjoying even a fraction of the Kalen family's resources.After the incident with Cole, had Sharon admitted her role on the spot, Richard might have seen her as bold and accountable, perhaps even gained a measure of respect for her.He might even have chosen to let the matter go.But her refusal to own up to what she'd done left him bitterly disappointed.Apart from her looks, she hadn't inherited any of her mother's excellence.After Sharon left the Kalen family, Richard had reflected on this. Perhaps, he thought, he had expected too much from her.She hadn't grown up like her mother, nurtured in privilege and afforded the finest education.He already had an exceptional daughter. Hence, there was no need to demand the same from Sharon.Yet now, watching his daughter on stage, he suddenly saw a flicker of Shayla in her. Perhaps she wasn't as lacking as he had assumed.Beside him, Victoria sat with a relaxed smile—at first. B

    Sharon played her original breakthrough piece, First Love.The beautiful melody shimmered like countless stars scattered across the night sky.A bright full moon slowly emerged, its pale light reflecting off the rippling water like a layer of frost.The atmosphere in the hall gradually hushed.This violin solo was serene and gentle, tinged with a faint melancholy, yet it was never bleak or despairing.It didn't weigh heavily on the listener but instead invited them to drift into memories of the past—an inexplicable resonance stirring within.Richard sat in the audience, his gaze fixed on Sharon's graceful figure on stage, his mind wandering into a haze.Her silhouette seemed to merge with the image etched deep in his memory.Suddenly, he recalled the moment he first fell for Sharon's mother—seeing her play violin on stage with such earnest focus and brilliance.Even the darkness of night could not dim her radiant light.He had never mentioned to the Kalen brothers or Sharon t

    "If Maestro Warner sees her perform, he'll probably thank his lucky stars he never took her on as a student… Hahahaha!"But before the laughter could fade, the dim lights flared to life once more.Sharon stepped onto the stage with quiet elegance.Under the soft glow of the spotlight, she stood like the brightest star in the night sky.Carter's gaze sharpened ever so slightly.For a fleeting second, he felt as if the entire atmosphere around him had stilled.Beside him, Theo murmured in awe, "Mommy… it's really Mommy!"Madeline frowned, her expression filled with disdain. "No matter how you dress up a pheasant, it'll never become a phoenix."Denise, however, couldn't help but marvel, "Is it just me… or is Sharon getting more and more beautiful?"Kelly's expression soured.Nate, on the other hand, felt a sharp sting to his pride, like a slap to the face. It burned.Elsewhere in the audience, Melanie excitedly grabbed hold of Ginny's hand. "It's Sharon! It's really her! I have

    Wendy had already lost hope, but the moment she saw who entered, her eyes widened with surprise and delight.She rushed over. "Sharon, are you okay?""I'm fine. Something unexpected happened," Sharon replied, walking in. "Sorry I'm late… Did it affect the performance?""Not at all! You're just in time!" Wendy said quickly. "Right now, John, Casey, and Matty are performing an ensemble. I'll let them know through the earpiece that you've arrived. Get ready. You'll be onstage soon."Sharon nodded.Wendy accompanied her into the dressing room, helping her into her gown while quickly briefing her on what had happened out front."Just now, John took the stage. He said today's performance… wasn't what we thought. It isn't a simple charity show for seniors."Not everyone in the audience is elderly. He noticed a lot of unfamiliar faces. And even… people from the Kalen family. Including your father, your older brother… and that illegitimate daughter."A flicker passed through Sharon's ey
