sn’t like Sharon. She’s so ungrateful, not worthy of stepping into the Stanley family. But frene must come back! Jasmine reminded firmly.
Tina nodded along “Edwin, whether our family’s reputation can be salvaged depends entirely on you!”
Edwin didn’t respond. He just tumed and walked away past the wa
Jasmine and Tina watched his hurried departure, both exhaling in relief
Neither of them cared much for Irene, thinking that a kid born to someone like Sharon must be just as despicable.
But Irene was part of the Stanley family
“Oh, Mom, I’ve heard some strange things lately. Rumor has it that Sharon is actually quite capable, and some even claim to have seen her at a racetrack.” Tina, who spent most of her time outside, naturally heard more, so she quickly relayed this to Jasmine.
“Some even say that Edwin’s recent contract signing with some big shot from Satisetion had something to do with her. Do you believe that!”
Jasmine, with a dismissive snort, responded. “Sharon has been with us for four years. You still dont know what kind of person she is?”
Tinaran her fingers through her hair, a wave of memories flooding back. Originally feeling uncomfortable after hearing those words, she found solace in recalling Sharon’s timidity when she was with the Stanley family
“Yeah, if Sharon really had such abilities, she would have flaunted them in front of us long ago. I bet this is just one of her schemes. Ultimately, she just wants us to think highly of her
“With her skills, she can only shine for a few days with Alanna’s support. Without Alanna, she’s nothing!” Jasmine wrinkled her nose in disgust clearly not interested in dwelling on the topic any longer. She turned back to the sofa, grabbed her coffee, and continued sipping.
As Tina heard her mention Alanna, she suddenly remembered what Alanna had sail the other day about accepting her as a host at Bisney Entertainment.
Her heart Buttered.
But she didn’t know whether Alanna’s words were true or just said to anger Tilda.
Tina studied media and was well aware of the status of anchon nowadays
A good anchor would be factored by countless entrepreneurs, not to mention their status and identity.
Nowadays, even celebrities were switching to become anchors.
If she could become a big anchor like Alanna, recognized and even admired wherever she went, it would be more glamorous than being a celebrity.
Most importantly, Randall was at Bisney Entertainment.
That was one of the main reasons she wanted to go there.
At six o’clock in the evening, Sharon returned home and had dinner with Irene
While Irene was clumsily learning to eat with the fork, she chatted with Sharon
During dinner, they had their mother–daughter bonding time, where Irene would tell Sharon about what happened at school.
Ever since returning from Pinevale, she had been telling her classmates about Erhan’s shoemaking skills. Her classmates admired Ethan so much that they were more willing to play with her.
Irene had become a little star in their class, and even the teachers said she was a lively and cheerful child.
Before the divorce, Irene had always been (00 afraid to speak up in public, always shrinking back,
Sharon looked at Irene’s transformation now and felt genuinely happy.
“Oh, Mommy” Irene finished her stories and suddenly remembered something. “These past few days have been weird Sonicone keeps asking the teacher for my hair, I’ve been plucked twice today”
Sharon, hearing Irene’s words, stopped eating and looked at her head. “Did the teacher say why they want your hair?”

Chapter 102
Irene shook her head. “No.”
Although unclear, Sharon’s brows furrowed suddenly, sensing something ominous
Do you know the people who want your hair?” she asked.
Irene shook her head again. They were in a room, and the teacher sent my hair to them after plucking it. I couldn’t see their faces. But one of them sounded like Aunt Tira”
Tina?” Sharon thought, increasingly realizing that this matter was not simple.
but she didn’t want to alarm Irene, so she remained calm and finished dinner with her.
Irene took the initiative to wash the dishes, and only then did Sharon take out her phone to investigate.
On the other hand, Edwin sat in the car, eyes lowered, his gaze as dark as the deep sea, devoid of any warmthi
He still held the crumpled piece of paper, resembling not just the paper but his heart, his dignity.
Edwin found it ridiculous.
He had been played by Sharon like this,
After laughing, he felt an inexplicable fall as if abruptly thrown into a bottomless space, unable to land.
Sharon would rather bear the infidelity label than have any association with him.
It was evident how resolute she was about staying away from him
This should have been a good thing, but his chest felt as if all the air had b
been suddenly sucked out, empty to the brink.
Did she really want to have an affair with the boss of Bisney Entertainment!
“Mr. Stanley, we have arrived the driver said quietly up front.
Edwin snapped out of his thoughts and pushed the door open to step m
As soon as his foot hit the ground, he saw two figures rushing away.
IDE
Edwin strode forward, legs wide, and just as they were about to get into the car, he reached out and pressed the door shut.
Sharon’s body stiffened, and she quickly turned her head.
Upon seeing Edwin clearly, her heart skipped a beat,
Sharon had figured out the purpose of the people plucking Irene’s hair. They were taking for resting.
Obviously, Irene’s true identity had been exposed.
Sharon knew someone would come looking for her soon so she planned to take Irene away for a couple of days.
But as soon as she made the move, Edwin appeared.
Edwin looked at her with a deep gaze, seeing her unease in her eyes, lips pressed tightly without a sound. “Where do you plan to run away to
Sharon’s gaze flickered as she took in his sinister eyes and the crumpled piece of paper he held.
She gasped instinctively and, on instinct, placed Irene behind her.
Edwin glanced at Irene
Irene shrank back, peeking timidly at him, her big eyes showing only wariness and distance toward him.
The wariness and distance pierced Edwin’s heart, his temples pulsating erratically.
Anger surged within him once again, and he spoke up, “Irene is rightfully mine. What gives you the right to conceal her identity!”
Sharon was already aware that he knew, and there was no escaping this
She took a deep breath, suppressing the unease in her heart,
When she faced Edwin again, her gaze was icy cold.
Chapter 102
This cold gaze pierced Edwin without a trace of the tenderness she once had.
Edwin felt a sharp pain wherever her gaze passed as if cut by a knife.
“Your child” So what?” He heard Sharon’s indifferent and crisp voice echoing in his ears.
She seemed to smile, her lips curved in a faint hint of detachment towards him,
“Trene belongs in the Stanley family. Sharon, Irene must come home with me! Edwin made a brash decision.
He said these words not because of what Tina had said about the Stanley family being mocked.
What truly stung him was seeing her with another man, taking Irene away
“Irene is not a tool for you to flaunt your affection!” be reminded sternly.
“Mr. Stanley, which eye of yours saw me treating Irene as a tool? Can’t you stand to see Irene and me happy with others? Are you jealoust Have you fallen for me? Sharon tilted her head, deliberately asking
