Chapter 722

Author: Sienna Yates
Carter's eyes darkened with anger as he strode toward Sharon.

Just then, Sharon's foot slipped on the damp stones, and she nearly fell. Fortunately, Xavier reacted swiftly, catching her before she hit the ground.

"Thank you," she murmured.

She had barely steadied herself when a powerful force wrenched the two of them apart.

Unprepared, Sharon staggered back two steps. Her heel struck a slick pebble, and she almost toppled again.

"Sharon!" Xavier instinctively reached out to steady her once

    Thomas's proposal cut through the haze like a shaft of light. It felt like there was no better solution. She and Thomas couldn't remain in this stalemate forever.Sharon nodded. "Alright."Thomas promised her that once her body fully recovered, they could proceed with the hypnosis.A week later, Sharon was discharged from the hospital. During her stay, both Carmen and Carter came to visit.Carmen couldn't help thinking that Thomas was not only handsome but also brilliant. Any child he fathered would surely be both beautiful and intelligent. As for the Ferrero family's hereditary conditions… both she and Sharon tacitly agreed not to mention them. Worrying now wouldn't change anything—perhaps the child wouldn't inherit them at all.Carmen was in high spirits knowing Sharon was pregnant.Carter, on the other hand, felt a complex mix of emotions. As a man, he knew that once Sharon gave birth to this child, even if Thomas truly forgot, their ties could never be completely severed.Be

    "Of course," Carmen said, "my recommendation that you keep the child is entirely from Thomas's perspective. From your side, Sharon, having a child out of wedlock will invite criticism—both for you and for the baby."And more importantly, the future is uncertain. The chances may be small, but there's always the possibility that he could fall for someone else or marry another woman for some reason. So this remains a difficult choice and a heavy decision for you."She glanced toward the doorway. Earlier, when she had come to see Sharon, Sharon had sent Thomas out."And," Carmen continued, "if you decide to terminate the pregnancy now, Thomas is unlikely to agree."Sharon asked softly, "Does Thomas like children?"Carmen shook her head. "Honestly, I don't know. He never spoke about it before. But he's always been patient with both your son and with Matty. That suggests he probably does care for children."When Thomas found out you were pregnant… did he seem happy?"Sharon nodded.C

    Lately, Thomas had been completely consumed by preparations. Now that Sharon was carrying their child, all of that planning was no longer necessary.The gentle aroma of porridge lingered in the air.Thomas's gaze burned like a fierce flame, as if he could scorch her through and through.Sharon could no longer bear it. She opened her eyes again.Thomas tilted his head slightly and asked, "You're awake? Sharon… do you want to sleep a little longer?"Sharon no longer felt sleepy. "No."He picked up the bowl from the table and tested the porridge's temperature. "Since you're not going to sleep, eat a little first."He brought the spoon to her lips. Though Sharon had little appetite, thinking of the child inside her, she still took a bite.Her stomach wasn't strong. After eating about a third, she couldn't continue.Thomas didn't force her. Instead, he quietly finished the rest of the porridge himself.Seeing this, Sharon asked, "You haven't eaten anything all this time?""Mhm,"

    Sharon's lips moved, but after all the harsh words she had thrown at Thomas before, she couldn't bring herself to speak a single one now. She lowered her head, silent.Seeing this, the coldness in Thomas's eyes softened, and the intimidating aura surrounding him dissipated completely.His voice regained its gentle tone. "Sharon, your fever hasn't gone down. You need to drink more water."He poured a glass and handed it to her. "Drink some."Sharon's mind was a jumble. She kept her eyes closed, refusing to acknowledge him.After a moment, she felt something cool and soft pressed gently against her lips. At the same time, a warm liquid flowed into her mouth.Her eyes shot open, and she saw his handsome face so close it made her heart skip.Her pupils dilated, and a flush of pink crept across her pale cheeks from embarrassment and irritation. She instinctively pulled back, letting the warm water drip onto the bedsheet.Thomas didn't get angry. He leaned in and softly kissed the wa

    When Sharon regained consciousness, she faintly heard voices around her."High fever caused by overexertion… Also, Miss McKinzie is already one month pregnant. Her body is a little weak, and the fetus is unstable. I'll prescribe some medication to support the pregnancy. For the next three months, it's best to avoid sexual activity, as it could easily cause a miscarriage… This is a topical ointment for bruising; apply it morning and evening."Sharon blinked, dazed, and tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness almost made her collapse again."Sharon." Thomas hurried to her side. "You're awake?"She murmured a response, taking in her surroundings. To her surprise, she was in a hospital."What… happened to me?" she asked.Thomas's dark eyes darkened further. "You had a fever.""Fever?"The dizziness dulled her reactions, but even in her fog, she remembered everything. Her pupils reflected the familiar, handsome face of the man beside her.Thinking of the man last night—the one who

    Sharon's smile was cold, sharp, and laced with irony."Thomas," she said, "to me, you were nothing more than a knife in my hand—a tool to help me rise. But you're far too sharp. You can hurt others, and you can easily hurt yourself. So… I have to let you go."Thomas stared at her. "Sharon, I'm not someone you can take or discard at will."Sharon's gaze remained steady. "No, Thomas. It's you who wants too much."He asked softly, almost pleading, "So… you still want to leave me?"Her fingers clenched tightly.It was as if his question implied that merely saying she didn't want him would make everything go back to how it was. But she had already crossed so many lines with him.Her lashes lowered. "I've already agreed to remarry Carter."A strange light flickered in his dark eyes. "All this time, I've been waiting for you to reach out, waiting for you to come and soothe me. I would have forgiven everything. But you… you didn't come. Not once. Instead, you've been with Carter every

    Johanna's face went still, then snapped. She turned to Jamie so fast her voice took on an edge."What did you say? He was married?"Jamie nodded. "The people hunting him now—they seem tied to that old marriage. Because that person meant something to him, he never wiped out those enemies completely

    Whatever happened was in the past.Sharon thought Julliard must have heard about it from Thomas earlier."The Walton estate's terrain is complicated," she said. "And it seems Jamie had gotten wind of things ahead of time—he was ready. For Thomas to make it out alive… that's already a miracle."Sh

    T was visibly stunned. "For someone as proud as you to admit another's skill… this person must be extraordinary."Q's lips curved faintly. "I even suspect he's already traced my IP."T shot upright, alarmed. "What? Then shouldn't you leave the country for a while—lay low somewhere?""No need." Q'

    Sharon didn't care much for banquets, but she knew well enough that these were the kinds of places where connections were made and doors opened.Thomas stayed by her side the entire evening as her silent escort. His presence alone was enough to keep away the wandering hands and lecherous smiles tha
