Sharon continued sharing her analysis. "Victoria grew up in the Kalen household as the acknowledged daughter of a prestigious family, while I was only brought back later. Naturally, no one would ever believe Victoria is the illegitimate one. Between us, I'm the far likelier target."And those three girls weren't just hurling random insults. They were certain of it—calling me a mistress's daughter, accusing me of spreading rumors just to force my way back into the Kalen family."If the Kalen family themselves had leaked the news, they wouldn't have gone to such deliberate lengths to frame her. After all, she was meant to return to the family. Richard still wore the mask of a benevolent father, showing no sign of wanting to tear things apart with her.Besides, she still held those frozen original shares in her hands. If the Kalen family wanted to stir speculation, they could have done so with a vague, ambiguous hint—no need to plant such harmful, one-sided accusations that would dam

Because he was unable to find Shayla, Richard could only announce to the world that Shayla had died in childbirth.Tracing further back, when Shayla married Richard, the wedding had been grand, yet no media or reporters were invited. Every detail was kept strictly confidential, and no one dared to leak anything.Shayla herself preferred a quiet life. Beyond her family and close friends, almost no one knew she was Madam Kalen. Even in the press, whenever Richard's wife was mentioned, she was only ever referred to as "Madam Kalen."Over time, Shayla's very name vanished from public memory.Later, Shayla built a reputation for herself in Zachemaine, but the Kalen family, living far away in Marcentine, remained oblivious.After years of fruitless searching, Richard eventually dismissed the people he had sent after her. He didn't want to push Shayla too hard.In his mind, since they had three children together, Shayla would one day come home on her own.He never expected that the nex

The scene froze for several seconds.Then came the laughter—sharp, mocking, filled with glee at her downfall."Hahaha! Look at her now! What a joke!""A goddess? She looks more like a stray dog!""Quick, record her like this! Upload it online!"Never in her life had Victoria suffered such utter humiliation.It felt as though anyone could trample her now, simply because she was a mistress's daughter. Anyone could curse her, mock her, spit on her dignity.She didn't even know how she made it out of the competition hall.The moment she stepped outside, Lex and Cole rushed toward her.When they saw her disheveled, humiliated state, both men froze in shock. Never had they seen Victoria so disgraced.But once the shock faded, fury and anguish surged in its place—so fierce it nearly consumed them.Lex ground his teeth. "It must be Sharon!"The scandal about Sharon had barely cooled, and now Victoria's illegitimacy was exposed. The timing was too precise. This was clearly Sharon's

A shadow of worry crossed Cole's brow."Jamie is like a mad dog. If we let him get involved, who knows what chaos might follow."Jamie had clawed his way from an overlooked illegitimate son to the head of the Walton family. His methods were ruthless—so ruthless that even a man like Cole felt uneasy hearing about them.Lex's voice remained cool and measured. "Whoever did this clearly came prepared. The story can't be suppressed—in fact, it's spreading faster than ever. Neither our family nor the Kalen family can contain it now. If this continues, Victoria will be finished. We should enlist Jamie and help Victoria weather this storm."Cole hesitated. "But Jamie's methods are too brutal…"Cole had guile, but nothing like Lex's coldness. To him, Sharon being attacked online and then striking back was almost understandable—he, Damien, and even Lex had all suffered from Sharon's ruthless retaliation before. He knew she would respond viciously when wronged. Though he sympathized with V

"Sharon is meticulous and calculating. No wonder Victoria suffered such a crushing defeat at her hands."Lex continued, "I think you've realized by now that the rumors about Victoria online can't be silenced. It's not just Victoria being condemned; the entire Kalen family's reputation is in tatters."Jamie knew little about Sharon. What he did know came mostly from Johanna."Why would Sharon do this?" he asked.Lex replied evenly, "Partly for retaliation. But the deeper reason? She refuses to return to the Kalen family under a tainted, illegitimate name."He then relayed Richard's attempt to bring Sharon back into the family."Now Sharon has Carter Biggs and Xavier Cooper at her side. And this is Zachemaine. If you want to make trouble for her, it won't be easy."Jamie's gaze sharpened. "So your plan is to do nothing? To let Victoria choke down this humiliation in silence?"Lex gave a low laugh. "And you think you can snatch her out from under Carter and Xavier's noses? From wh
