"If all you want is money, then for the sake of old ties, I can give you a sum. But I hope you'll stop deceiving her feelings. Sharon is already struggling emotionally, and her collapse would be a loss for our entire country."The other two women nodded solemnly, as if in righteous agreement.Sharon said, "Since the three of you know who I am, you must also be aware of my recent conflict with Kelly, yes?"The three exchanged puzzled looks before nodding."Interesting," Sharon continued, her tone still calm but edged with steel. "You speak so convincingly, even producing photos as evidence. But photos can be forged. I've reviewed the videos you submitted as well—most avoid showing a clear face. That alone makes me question the truth of your claims."So here's what I intend to do: I'll release your stories online and ask the public for leads. If your relationships were real, surely at least one of your friends must have met him. Even if you managed to hide the romance well, all thre

"To avoid leaving any trace," the CEO said evenly, "Mr. Biggs always called through his assistant's phone. I used that phone to speak with him directly. Whenever he had instructions, he would send the assistant to me, and we'd connect that way. That's why there's no record of contact between us."She paused a while, then continued, "As for the fabricated evidence, that was all stored on the USB drives brought by his assistant. There were no call logs, no chat records. Mr. Biggs promised me benefits once the matter was done, but even beforehand, to secure my cooperation, he arranged several lucrative contracts for my family's company."If you doubt me, Sharon, you're welcome to verify it yourself. Not long ago, our company won a Biggs Group bid."It was true that smaller collaborations within the Biggs Group often went through formal bidding processes. Carter himself rarely handled such matters. And the woman standing before him—her name, her company—meant nothing to him. He had no m

Sharon said, "Testimonies alone don't count as evidence. As long as Carter refuses to admit it, no one can touch him. The brakes on Thomas's car were tampered with, but the only one missing is that mechanic. Nothing links it back to Carter."Her gaze shifted toward Thomas, carrying a trace of apology. "I'm sorry, Thomas. I'm afraid I can't win you justice this time."It wasn't that she lacked resolve, but without concrete proof, Carter remained untouchable.Thomas's voice was calm. "Carter holds immense power. He leaves no loose ends. For people like us, it's nearly impossible to fight him. It's fine. I'll just be more cautious from now on."The more magnanimous he appeared, the heavier Sharon's guilt weighed."I promised you once that I would get justice for you… and now I've broken my word so quickly."For the first time, Sharon felt fully the cruel weight of reality—how fragile fairness and justice were when crushed under the heel of wealth and power.John, who had been silen

Hearing this, Johanna's heart sank.Now she was certain—the person Thomas had been searching for was none other than Sharon.Thomas continued, "At that time, I was suffering from depression. I was drowning in despair, feeling life had lost all meaning. But her music… it rekindled my will to live. In my heart, she became the one who saved me."Johanna's expression shifted into feigned realization. She did not rush to claim she was the one he sought. Instead, she smiled."And you never approached her?""No," Thomas said. "I was in no state to. By the time she left, all I found was an earring where she had been."His gaze fixed on her."Johanna, do you play the violin?""A little," she admitted. "But I'm hardly proficient.""And the piece First Love?" he pressed.Johanna's eyes widened slightly, feigning surprise. "Thomas, surely you don't think I'm the one you're looking for?"She shook her head with a soft laugh."It's true I once lost an earring, but I don't remember where.

Rick wasn't shameless enough to push that far. Still, if Sharon stepped into the company with the backing of the company veterans… things could shift.His thoughts were cut short by Sharon's voice."That won't be necessary. Since I'm returning to the Kalen family, I will be part of the Kalen family. I'll shoulder the risks that come with it."Rick hadn't expected her to be so obstinate."Sharon, I'm doing this for your sake. And we're not taking your shares for free. It's an equal exchange. There's no difference between original shares and common shares."Sharon's lips curved into a light smile."If there's truly no difference, then why insist on making the change? If you dislike holding original shares, I could always purchase them from you myself."Her words stunned him into a disbelieving laugh."You? Buy out my shares? With what?"But Sharon didn't flare up at his mockery. Her tone remained calm."Rick, don't worry. Even between siblings, accounts must be clear. I'll neve
