At the very moment Sharon made her statement, a new post quietly appeared on Wendy's account.[I'm Wendy Cohen, Sharon McKinzie's agent. Not long ago, every single one of our accounts on all social media platforms was suddenly banned without warning. I contacted every platform, again and again, trying to get an answer. We got no explanation.[We built those accounts from scratch. We poured everything into them—content, time, and effort. After countless sleepless nights, a few of our videos finally went viral. We gained over ten million followers.[We thought things were finally getting better. But what waited for us was a complete blackout—an inexplicable, ruthless ban. We were devastated.[For a while, we even wondered if maybe, somehow, it really was our fault. Maybe we'd broken some rule without realizing it. So I started a backup account… but before it even gained traction, it was banned again.[That's when I knew. We'd offended someone. Someone powerful. Someone with money. S

Nate growled under his breath, his voice sharp with rage. "When the hell did I ever tell you idiots to post positive press about Sharon? Are you all brain-dead? Delete it. Delete every single piece of positive coverage about her. Push out the dirt. I don't care if it's real or fake. Flood it. And hire more trolls to stir the pot. Damn it! I don't believe I can't ruin her!"The assistant hesitated. "But, Sir… Sharon's 100-million-dollar donation really won her a lot of public support. Even the state media praised her for it. Sir… going against the state media… are you sure that's wise?"Nate's face contorted, his jaw clenched so tight it looked painful. "I already said—post the dirt. Push it out!"The assistant sighed, helpless now. He was a media professional, a top graduate from a reputable communications university, and everything about this screamed disaster. Dropping negative press now, when public sentiment was tilting overwhelmingly in Sharon's favor, wasn't just reckless—it

Hearing Sharon's words, a faint discomfort stirred in Carter's chest.Sure, he'd intended to teach her a lesson, but not once had he considered taking that 100 million back.And yet, the way she spoke… it was as if he were some shameless man reneging on his word.A subtle chill surfaced in his eyes. "Sharon, have you ever thought about this? You donated all that money… but if you fail to uphold your end of the deal, you'll be left with 100 million in debt."Sharon smiled. "And have you ever thought… that the moment I dared to donate it, I was never afraid of that debt?"His sharp brows lifted, forming an elegant but threatening arc. "So what—you're betting that I won't actually do anything to you?"For a second, Sharon froze. Then she let out a laugh."Carter, do you think too highly of yourself? Won't do anything to me? What about orchestrating my blacklist across the internet? What about leaking fabricated scandals to ruin my name? What about trying to send me to prison? When

Carter's lips pressed into a thin, cold line. He fell silent.Julliard didn't stop. "It was Nate who kept pushing you, telling you to get a divorce first. He kept talking about teaching Sharon a lesson and making her come crawling back. But look how that worked out. Not only has she shown no intention of coming back, she's getting farther and farther away."I know… maybe I shouldn't be the one saying this. But, Carter… I don't want to watch brothers turn against each other. Do you understand?"Julliard had never been one to speak much, especially about other people's business. Yet today, the words kept coming.Carter's expression darkened, shadows settling across his features.Just then, a sudden knock echoed against the office door."Carter, Nate's been taken by the police!"Kelly rushed in, her face tight with panic, her brow creased with anxious urgency. "The lawyer tried to get him out on bail, but… they refused. They won't release him."It was only after blurting this out

Sharon smiled gently. "What is it?"Matty replied, "It's about Theo."The moment she heard Theo's name, Sharon's smile faded, just slightly. Still, she asked, "What about him?"Matty said, "Theo… I think he found out that you and Mr. Biggs got divorced. He's really upset. He said… he wants to ask you if it's true… if you really don't want him anymore."Sharon stayed quiet.Matty continued, "I think… I saw Theo following us earlier. I'm pretty sure… he's waiting outside right now. Sharon, why don't we let him come in?"Still, Sharon said nothing.Wendy glanced at her expression, then chuckled lightly. "Ah, it's been a while since I've seen Theo. You know, I kinda miss the little guy. I'll go check."Sharon didn't stop her, just quietly watched Wendy walk out.A few minutes later, Wendy returned, holding Theo's hand."Come on, come on. Theo, sit over here," Wendy said warmly, guiding him to the seat beside Sharon's left. Matty sat on her right.Sharon didn't say anything about
