"Mommy," Theo's voice called out, pulling Sharon's attention back.She turned and saw Theo dressed like a little gentleman in a crisp, formal suit.It had been some time since she last saw him.In the past, she had cherished Theo more than her own life. Even the slightest sign of discomfort from him would send her into a panic. There were moments she truly believed that if she ever lost him, she wouldn't survive.But life had taught her otherwise—no one, not even her own child, was worth losing herself over.She gave a slight nod in response to his greeting, acknowledging him without a word.At the same time, a faint sense of confusion stirred within her.Why had Uriah invited them, too?Could it be that Uriah was trying to ease the tension between her and Theo, so he invited the boy, and the Biggs family simply followed?Their exchange soon drew the attention of the banquet's floor manager.A middle-aged man approached, his tone sharp with authority."What's going on here?

If the performance failed, it would simply mean that Sharon lacked skills.However, it seemed the Kalen family would also be attending the banquet.What Uriah didn't know was that Sharon was actually the long-lost daughter of the Kalen family. And as for the Kalens, when they saw the daughter or sister they had once cast out, not only far from destitute but living such a dazzling life, what kind of expressions would they wear?Unlike Sharon and Wendy, who remained unaware of the true significance behind this performance, Xavier knew exactly what it meant.That was why, after learning the performance schedule, he asked Uriah for an invitation to avoid mishaps like the one just now.Not long after leaving Carter and the others, someone spotted Xavier and lit up with recognition, walking over warmly."Mr. Cooper! I didn't expect to see you here!"Sharon glanced at the man and immediately recognized him as one of Xavier's business associates.She said, "Mr. Cooper, if you have busi

John checked the time. "Only ten minutes left. I need to head onstage."He turned to Wendy. "Push the ensemble and Sharon's solo to later in the program."Wendy thought for a moment and nodded. Fortunately, since it was an internal performance, the order of appearances could be adjusted freely. As long as Sharon appeared a bit later, it wouldn't be an issue.Casey asked anxiously, "But what if Sharon doesn't come back at all?"John paused for a few seconds, then said in a low voice, "Then the rest of us will perform."He looked at Matty, who had been quietly waiting for instructions. "Matty, if Sharon really can't go onstage, could you play two extra pieces?"Matty gave a small nod. "Yes."He'd been learning the violin from Sharon recently and could play quite a few pieces. Performing a few more wouldn't be a problem.John then turned to Casey. "If Sharon doesn't make it back, you'll need to play a few more piano pieces as well."Casey nodded. "Got it."Although this performa

A paternity test confirmed the truth. The boy was indeed Kenneth's biological son.The revelation nearly drove his wife mad. She didn't kill the woman directly—instead, she used the cruelest of methods to torment the boy until he died.When Kenneth learned the truth, he severed all ties with his wife and, despite the family's objections, divorced her. The once-courteous couple became bitter enemies.Amidst their escalating conflict, Kenneth's first love took advantage of the chaos. While no one was paying attention, she quietly left with another child and vanished without a trace.It turned out she'd given birth to twins. She knew, as a commoner, she couldn't win against the powerful Westin family. So she disappeared, hoping to save at least one of her children.Back then, the scandal between Kenneth and his ex-wife had shaken high society. Even Victoria had heard whispers of it.The ex-wife's venomous nature became common knowledge. People shunned her. No one dared marry her. No

"If Maestro Warner sees her perform, he'll probably thank his lucky stars he never took her on as a student… Hahahaha!"But before the laughter could fade, the dim lights flared to life once more.Sharon stepped onto the stage with quiet elegance.Under the soft glow of the spotlight, she stood like the brightest star in the night sky.Carter's gaze sharpened ever so slightly.For a fleeting second, he felt as if the entire atmosphere around him had stilled.Beside him, Theo murmured in awe, "Mommy… it's really Mommy!"Madeline frowned, her expression filled with disdain. "No matter how you dress up a pheasant, it'll never become a phoenix."Denise, however, couldn't help but marvel, "Is it just me… or is Sharon getting more and more beautiful?"Kelly's expression soured.Nate, on the other hand, felt a sharp sting to his pride, like a slap to the face. It burned.Elsewhere in the audience, Melanie excitedly grabbed hold of Ginny's hand. "It's Sharon! It's really her! I have
