Xavier raised his eyebrows, as if about to say something, but Sharon cut him off."Xavier, why don't you head back for now? There's something I'd like to discuss with Mr. Biggs. Alone."Xavier paused, then gave a small nod. "Alright. If you need anything, call me anytime."Carter's face darkened for reasons even he couldn't explain.Once Xavier had left, Carter stood stiffly, his expression cold. "Sharon, we haven't even divorced yet, and you're already eager to bring another man here to—what—build a connection?"Coming from him, kind words were a rarity.Sharon's voice was calm. "Your phone was unreachable. After I was taken to the hospital, the doctor kept urging me to pay. I could only call someone I knew to help out."Truthfully, she had called Wendy first. But because of the accident yesterday, she hadn't been able to pick up Matty. So when she woke up, she called Xavier to explain the situation.Not long after, Xavier arrived with Matty to visit her. Later, when Wendy cam

"All that scheming just to marry rich. How do you even have the nerve to keep living in this world?!""Women like you, all vanity and no shame, deserve to rot!""If the law won't punish you, then we will. Today, we're delivering justice on behalf of the heavens!"The crowd had her surrounded, hurling insults and shoving her from all sides. Someone pushed her hard enough that she stumbled and fell to the ground.It was only then that a hospital security guard noticed the commotion and rushed over."Hey! What do you think you're doing? Get out of here! This is a hospital!"The group scattered at once, vanishing as quickly as they had come.Sharon tried to get up. But before she could lift herself, a pair of polished black leather shoes appeared before her.She instinctively looked up. Through blurry vision, she saw a face—cool, handsome, distant.Carter's dark eyes stared down at her, reflecting her disheveled state in their depths.He said, calmly, "I've spoken to Kelly. She's

Lately, Sharon and Xavier had started to grow familiar with each other.As the days passed, she found herself surprised by how many interests they shared. Xavier, like her, loved going to concerts. Back in college, he'd even minored in violin. Though he'd eventually let it go to take over the family business, the way he spoke about music revealed a depth of thought that left Sharon quietly impressed. His technique may not have been perfect, but his insights were sharp, and often gave her new ways to think about what she loved.Sharon let out a quiet smile. "Kelly thought she played her part perfectly, but in reality, her lies are full of holes. Today, I'll let the world see who she really is."The truth was, ever since Kelly had reappeared, Sharon had suffered in silence more times than she could count. She didn't deny that she disliked Kelly deeply, but she had never once wanted to destroy her completely. When a man strayed, the root of the problem usually lay with him.After al

Carter walked in, his posture tall, his presence cool and aloof.Every movement he made, no matter how small, carried a natural grace, as if elegance had been etched into his bones. A quiet but overwhelming aura radiated from him—one that made it hard to breathe.At the sight of him, Sharon instinctively clenched her fists, a cold light flickering in her eyes.The reporters, however, reacted like bees drawn to a bloom, rushing toward Carter."Mr. Biggs, are you here today to do the right thing—to bring the murderer to justice?""Mr. Biggs, you've remained silent about your wife's car crash involving Kelly Walt, even as public outrage has exploded online. Does your silence mean you believe she's guilty?""Mr. Biggs, are you planning to divorce Sharon?"They swarmed around him, cameras flashing in a frenzy.Carter's face remained unreadable. The same detached, cold expression he always wore. He looked at no one in particular and simply said, "Step aside."There was nothing emoti

Sharon looked at Carter with a flicker of disbelief in her eyes."If you think money doesn't matter, then freeze your accounts and try living without it. See how long you last before realizing how important it really is. Besides, do you really think I want your money? That I want you?"Want you, when you run off in the middle of the night for another woman? Want you, when I'm stuck playing housemaid, cooking herbal remedies for your first love? Want you, when I ask for help and you question if I'm at fault, or when I'm in danger and you hang up on me—just to leave with another woman in your arms?"She met his gaze head-on."But if you must insist I want your money—what have I actually gotten out of our marriage?"When Kelly returned to the country, she was given a seaside villa in Amstern City—prime real estate, worth eight figures. Carter bought it without hesitation and signed it over to her name.Sharon, on the other hand, left the Biggs estate and ended up renting a small apa
