Chapter 35
The female fan who had been hiding in the bed somehow ended up on the windowsill. She sat on the open window, one leg dangling outside.
Alanna froze with shock: Rocky, on the other hand, acted fast, rushing to the window.
But
at the girl w
girl wouldn’t let him touch her, crying nonstop. Every time Rocky tried to pull her back, she leaned further out.
Sharon tried to stay composed and told Rocky, “Rocky, come back here.”
Rocky looked at the girl, unsettled,
Sharon shook her head at him. After all, the girl would only get more
more agitated with Rocky around..
Having no other choice, Racky retreated with a heavy hear
Sharon approached the girl but kept some distance. “What’s going on? Why are you doing this
The girl was sobbing. It’s all clear to me now. Because of me, Rocky might never be able to livestream again. It’s all my fault. I might as well be dead”
“This isn’t your fault. Please come down. Sharon said, trying to reason with her.
The girl just shook her head repeatedly. “No, this is all my doing”
From across the room, seeing how stubborn the girl was, Alanna shouted, “You think dying solves everything? If you die, you’ll only bring more trouble to Rocky What’s he supposed to do then?
Alanna’s rebuke made the girl even more upset, her cries growing louder. She was trembling so much that a strong breeze might have blown her
away.
Sharon’s head was pounding. Think about it. This is the tenth floor. If you fall, you won’t survive. It’ll be a miserable end-
Hearing this, the girl froze. She was still young and beautiful, obviously not prepared to meet such a violent end.
Seizing the moment, Sharon lunged forward and wrapped her arma around the girl’s waist, yanking her back inside. Alanna and Rocky rushed forward, and they together managed to pull the girl to safety.
They comforted the girl for a good while. Finally, with her eyes red and swollen, the girl was led away as per Alanna’s arrangements,
In the room, only the three of them remained, Still agitated, Rocky ran his fingers through his hair. All he did was take a shower, and suddenly, there was this girl in his room, and to top it off, Edwin caught them in the act. He was beyond frustrated.
Sharon went to him, squeezing his shoulder. “Don’t worry. Fill figure something out for this mess. It won’t affect you.”
Rocky looked at her. “No need, Sharon. I hate being played. If Edwin thinks he can use me to force your into something, he can just quit it. I was getting tired of livestreaming anyway. Maybe I’ll just go back and take over the family business?
Rocky came from a very wealthy family, but due to some friction and his laid–back nature, he had chosen the livestreaming life over the business world.
“What are you talking about?” Sharon knew he wasn’t serious. “You’re the mainstay of my company.
you leave, what am
am I supposed to do?”
The money Rocky made selling stuff in his live streams was nothing short of what he could get by taking over the family business.
A top–notch live streamer could whip up sales in just a few minutes that beat out what some whole cities could make in–store.
“Don’t worry, I already took care of Edwin, Just focus on your sales and quit worrying about anything else,” Sharon added.
Hearing Sharon’s claim of handling Edwin, Rocky was visibly worried. “Sharon, you didn’t agree to some unfair deal with him, did you?
“No, 1 dulot,” she replied,
Rocky seemed to want in o press further, but Sharon had already arranged another room for him. “Get some rest. I need you fresh for the work
Normally, Rocky would tuow a couple of jokes her way, laut he was clearly not in the mood that night. He just nodded and left.
Left alone with Sharon, Alanna asked anxiously, “Is it truly handlede.
Sharon didn’t hide the truth from her and shook her head

Chapter 35
“What do we do then? If Edwin can pull something like this, he’s for sure gonna do even crazier stuff, Alanna said.
“Don’t worry,” Sharon said with a comforting look. “Though I can’t handle this, someone else will take care of it for me.”
Sharon knew the figure she saw in the hallway was probably Tilda. If Tilda was smart enough, she surely knew what was best for her to do
Sharon and Alanna had a brief chat after that Concerned that the incident with the female fan might spread if seen by the others, Alanna decided to stay in the hotel for the night
Sharon left on her own. Just as she walked to the elevator, she noticed an elegant figure appear, clad in black with her face completely covered.
However, Sharon recognized the person immediately it was Tika
Tilda joined Sharon in the elevator without a word until the doors closed. She then said. “Ms Cress, can we talk?”
“Sure, Sharon replied.
Once downstairs, Tilda led Sharon into a dim, deserted corner before turning to face her. She removed her sunglasses to reveal a striking face.
“I’ve taken care of tonight’s situation for you, Ms. Cress. Edwin has agreed to let bygones be bygones as a favor to me,” Tilda said.
It was just as Sharog had anticipated.
Tikda then fell silent, holding her sunglasses and staring at Sharon with a sense of superiority.
However, Sharon showed no surprise or gratitude on her face–only a calm nod in acknowledgment
Tilda couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh. She thought. Typical a country bumpkin. I do her a huge favor, and she doesn’t even know to say thank
you
Feeling it was beneath her, Tilda didn’t bother saying another word to Sharon and just walked away with grace.
A few steps out, she suddenly paused. “Oh, and one more thing. Edwin has a temper. You’d better stay out of his way from now or
Sharon s
again
snorted. From the moment she divorced, she had banished Edwin from her world. The last thing she wanted was to show up in his life
Sharon saw right through Tilda. She knew Tilda had been waiting for a thank you. But Sharon couldn’t have cared less because she felt it was unnecessary.
For one, although Sharon’s only intention back then was to help Edwin, Tilda would have been kicked out of the company without Sharon’s. intervention, so in turn, Tilda owed her a thank you as well.
Besides, Tilda speaking up for Sharon in front of Edwin wasn’t about helping Sharon. It was all for herself. After all, only if Edwin completely cut off from Sharon and Irene could Tilda live happily with Edwin in the future
Not long after Tilda had left, Sharon’s phone began to ring. It was Irene. The liute one started to worry when her mom didn’t come home so
Sharon quickly reassured her, “I’m on my way back now;
However, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm and forcefully dragged her into the darkness.
