LOGINJulliard's gaze shifted slightly. "Thomas's weakness?""It's obvious," Carter said in a calm, unhurried voice. "His weakness is Sharon. I didn't witness the scene myself, but according to Liam's account, the impact was overwhelming. If I had seen it with my own eyes, I doubt I could have stayed conscious either."Hearing this, a glimmer of hope seemed to ignite in Julliard's eyes."So… Sharon might not be dead?"Carter replied, "Of course, this is only my speculation."He surveyed the surrounding wreckage and sighed softly. "If this fire was set solely to target Thomas, and it caused so many deaths… then the person behind it must be unimaginably vicious."Julliard asked, "Do you have any leads on the arsonist yet?"Carter shook his head. "The fire destroyed almost all the evidence."As he spoke, he looked at Julliard. "Julliard, you have considerable connections and influence in Senna City. I hope you'll help me investigate as well."Julliard's expression was tightly controlle
Victoria said, "Of course. No matter what, Sharon is still my younger sister and a member of the Kalen family. Her shares are rightfully hers."Julliard sneered inwardly.With Jamie's shares in hand, Victoria would naturally look down on what Sharon possessed. After all, obtaining Jamie's shares meant directly controlling the Walton family.Victoria did not hold many strong cards. Even if she took Sharon's shares, she would still have to get past Rick first. It was far better to seize Jamie's shares first.Victoria continued, "Julliard, according to the information I've received, if Sharon gives up her inheritance rights, Jamie's shares will be frozen for five years. So instead of having her sign a waiver, it would be better to make her sign a transfer agreement."Julliard replied coolly, "Jamie's shares are still in the process of being handled. Sharon hasn't fully taken them over yet. A share transfer isn't like selling vegetables—you can't just move it around at will."Victori
Doug would rather lie and give Thomas a shred of hope.Yet, Thomas seemed unable to hear anything at all. His expression remained blank and dazed.Doug was truly frightened now. "Mr. Ferrero, please… say something…"Thomas's eyelashes trembled faintly. Before Doug could feel a spark of relief, Thomas's face suddenly changed, and he violently spat out a mouthful of blood."Mr. Ferrero!" Doug's face turned pale.Thomas swayed unsteadily and collapsed unconscious.Doug leapt to his feet, caught him, and shouted, "Doctor! Doctor!"…Julliard gazed at Sharon with burning intensity.He had waited for this day for far too long.He had endured the pain of watching Sharon with Thomas, watching Thomas joyfully prepare for their wedding.But as long as he imagined Thomas falling from heaven into hell—driven mad by Sharon's "death," with no time left to search for her—he felt it was all worth it.Thomas was simply too clever. If he were allowed to remain clear-headed, there was no guar
Doug realized he had misspoken and hurried to correct himself. "I spoke wrongly… that body is very likely someone else's."Thomas slowly closed his eyes. In an instant, his handsome face looked weary and drawn.His voice carried a sense of exhaustion, yet his chaotic thoughts seemed to regain a measure of clarity."Send it for testing."Only then did Doug let out a breath of relief.Even so, Thomas's current state still deeply worried him.Thomas had always been rational and composed, able to take charge calmly no matter how dire the situation. Seeing him like this now was truly unsettling.Just as Doug was debating whether he should stay behind, Thomas spoke again. His voice was hoarse. "Go back with them. Don't leave for a second. Tell the guards outside not to let down their vigilance. Make sure no one tampers with anything."The orderly, clear instructions reassured Doug somewhat."Yes, sir. I'll take care of it immediately."Thomas opened his eyes, his pitch-black gaze f
Liam dared not imagine what would happen if Sharon had truly perished in the fire.Because of the extreme heat, the tracking chip embedded in Sharon's ring appeared to have been damaged. For now, it could only display the last known location through technical reconstruction.The real-time tracking function was still under repair.What was most terrifying was that beneath that very location lay a charred corpse.The fire here had been so fierce that everything around was burned beyond recognition. Even the body itself showed no identifiable physical features.Liam had wanted to order someone to remove the body and send it for identification. But seeing Thomas in this state, he did not dare bring it up.At that moment, one of the subordinates came to report."Miss McKinzie's dynamic tracking has been restored."At those words, Thomas's expression finally eased, and clarity slowly returned to his dark eyes.Liam said, "Bring the laptop over."Before long, the laptop was brought o
That meant the next person to be targeted would likely be Theo.If anything happened to Theo, she would definitely return.Julliard said, "If I could, I wouldn't want to hurt them either. Sharon, don't blame me—blame Thomas for being too difficult to deal with. He watches you so closely every day, never leaving your side. Other than using Theo, I couldn't think of any way to draw Thomas away from you. Luckily, this time, I finally succeeded."Sharon clenched her fists tightly. She was afraid that if she lost control, she would slap Julliard again.The icy chill in her fingertips gradually brought her back to her senses, steadying her heart just a little.There was a tracking chip embedded in the ring she wore. Thomas might still be able to find her.At that moment, Julliard curled his lips into a smile.He raised his hand, revealing the ring on his middle finger."Sharon, this matching ring was designed by me personally. Do you like it?"Sharon lifted her hand instinctively. W
