Chapter 527

Author: Sienna Yates
"Kenneth, please rest assured. What you're worried about will never happen," Sharon said.

Without John's funding and connections, there was no way she could have pulled together the studio and organized the concert in such a short time.

She had just gone through a divorce, with no money and no resources to her name. Hosting a concert required far more than just cash. It involved securing a venue, equipment, and staff. Every detail had to be perfect, and nothing could be overlooked.

As Kenneth looked at the young woman before him, a wave of shame washed over him.

He had his reasons for wanting to adopt Sharon—selfish ones. He feared John might never return home. He feared John would marry her. And he feared… that she might use gratitude as leverage.

Yet she asked for nothing in return.

All she wanted was for John to live well.

And he, blinded by his own narrow calculations, had tried to measure her by the standards of a petty man.

In that moment, Kenneth finally understood why

    Jamie even waved over a waiter and casually ordered a few dishes.Seeing Sharon and Thomas still watching him, Jamie raised an eyebrow. "Do either of you have business with me?"Sharon was the first to look away. Thomas also ignored him. He turned his gaze back to Sharon."Sharon, what did Jamie say to you?" Thomas asked. Though his expression seemed normal, Sharon had known him long enough to notice the faint tension behind his eyes.Sharon replied lightly, "Apparently, Victoria got beaten up. Jamie thinks I did it, so he probably came to settle the score with me."Thomas's dark eyes narrowed slightly. "He came here just to talk about that?"Today, Jamie seemed strange—but Thomas… he was acting a little unusual too.Sharon nodded subtly and asked, "Thomas, is something wrong? You seem different."Thomas lowered his gaze, his voice calm. "No."Sharon was no longer so easily fooled. She leaned closer, her voice soft. "Thomas… are you hiding something from me?"Thomas's reply c

    After all, Jamie had handed over some of his shares in the Walton Group to Victoria without a second thought, without even blinking. Clearly, power and influence weren't what mattered most to him—not at the very top of his priorities, at least.Seeing her cautious, guarded expression, Jamie's eyes darkened for a moment.Then, finally, he spoke. "Relax. I'm not interested in your hands right now."Sharon lifted her gaze to meet his. "You're not interested in my hands? Then what are you interested in?"Jamie's deep, inscrutable eyes settled on her. His thin lips parted slightly, and he said quietly, almost indifferently, "Right now… I'm quite interested in you."Sharon's reaction was succinct. "Weirdo."Jamie didn't seem to care. He continued, "Last time I saw you with your sketchbook at the hospital… your hands didn't seem to affect your painting?"Hearing him bring up her hands repeatedly, Sharon's expression instantly chilled. "Jamie, what exactly are you planning?"Ever since

    Jamie lowered his gaze to Sharon.There was something strange in his eyes—an unnameable complexity. It was as if a man who had never truly looked at her before was suddenly scrutinizing her with intense focus.The sensation made Sharon feel deeply unsettled and uncomfortable.She kept her guard up, her voice cool and wary. "Do you need something?"The cold vigilance in her eyes was completely different from the relaxed trust she displayed around Thomas. Had he not witnessed both sides of her, he would never have believed they were the same person.Somehow, Jamie's thoughts drifted to MK. MK had always been patient, gentle, and tender with him—almost like the way Sharon treated Thomas.Could MK really be Sharon?Seeing Jamie remain silent, his strange, piercing gaze fixed on her, Sharon's unease deepened.Her tone sharpened. "Jamie, what do you want?"Jamie parted his lips, intending to ask if she was MK—but the words that came out were something entirely different."Did you s

    For some reason, at that moment, Jamie didn't dare ask.The feeling was unbearably conflicted. On one hand, a part of him refused to believe that Sharon could actually be MK. On the other, he couldn't stop himself from wanting to confirm it.He simply couldn't accept that the artist he admired, the one he had chatted with for so long, might be his sworn enemy—Sharon. Even if MK were a man or an elderly woman, he wouldn't feel as unsettled as he did now.…The next day, Sharon and Thomas sat across from each other in a restaurant.After ordering, Sharon said, "Thomas, I owe this to you. You've helped so much, and I know you had to put up with a lot."Thomas smiled. "Without your trust and cooperation, this plan wouldn't have been nearly so easy to pull off."He looked at her and spoke softly, "Sharon, I was gambling too. If we lost, we could have lost everything."Sharon shook her head. "I have no foundation, no hidden cards. If I want to win big, I have to take risks. You can't

    Two hospital rooms had angles that closely resembled the painting.One of them—surely—was the very room where Thomas had stayed.Coincidence… or something else?At this moment, Jamie could not be certain.…After exposing Enzo and identifying a few insider shareholders, the share dispute finally reached a conclusion. Sharon let out a long, relieved breath.Enzo was sent to prison for leaking corporate secrets. The sums involved were so enormous that he would likely spend a long, long time behind bars.As for the insider shareholders, they hadn't revealed any real information—they only stirred things up during the incident, so there was little that could be done to punish them. But Sharon didn't need to worry about that; Jacob and Angus would handle it.After a period of wrangling, Silas received four percent of the shares as compensation and accepted it without further protest. These past days, though, he had been too distracted to work, constantly clashing with Claire. Whene

    Cole asked, "What about your dad? What does he say? Is he gonna just let Sharon swindle Silas's shares away?"Victoria shook her head. "After Sharon got Silas's shares, the supporters within the Kalen Group are now almost evenly split between those backing her and those loyal to our father. Even if Sharon wanted to return the shares, the shareholders supporting her would never allow it. She doesn't need to say or do anything—those shareholders will handle it for her."Profit, not sentiment, guided the shareholders. Silas's abilities were questionable. The company had been cornered, and he couldn't outmaneuver Sharon in strategy or scheming. Supporting him further would be foolish. In their eyes, victory justified any means.After all, Richard hadn't been entirely noble either, yet he had still managed to secure the support of company insiders. Now, this was merely poetic justice.If Richard wanted Sharon to relinquish the shares, he would first have to get past the shareholders. Th
