Chapter 151
Carter's voice was icy. “And what if | refuse to sign?”
Sharon didn’t flinch. “Then whether Kelly gets to fulfill her dream... becomes a question mark.”
A sharp glint flashed in Carter's eyes-cold and razor-edged, bright enough to cut through flesh.
“Sharon, are you trying to get yourself killed?”
Her lashes lifted slightly, her gaze meeting his without hesitation.
“Oh? So when you threatenusing the people | care about, it's just business. But when | use your precious
Kelly against you, suddenly I'm signing my own death warrant? Carter, | never wanted to drag anyone else into
this. But Kelly kept shoving herself in my face, over and over. If she'd stayed out of my way, | wouldn't have
touched her. If you've got a problem with me, take it up withdirectly. But if you lay a finger on any of my
friends...”
Sharon leaned in slightly, her lips parting as she spoke with chilling precision.
“I have nothing left to lose. Push me, and | won't just ruin Kelly-I'll make sure your entire family pays for it.”
Something dangerous flickered in her eyes, something that made Carter freeze for a split second.
In that moment, he realized the woman standing before him-the one he’d once thought soft and pliant-wasn’t
nearly as easy to control as he'd believed.

He gulped, jaw tightening. A few seconds passed.
Then he tossed the divorce agreement back at her.
“You want a divorce? Fine. But taking half my assets? Not happening.”
Sharon wasn’t surprised. “Then nyour terms. I'm listening.”
He sank into the nearby couch. “You walk away with nothing. Then we have a deal.”
Leave with nothing. Of course.
Sharon didn’t even blink. There was no anger or pain in her face.
He had always been generous with Kelly, never expecting anything in return. But with her-every cent had to be
measured.
She opened her mouth to speak, but Carter cut her off.
“Take your time. Go hand think it over before you decide. Even if you agree today, I'm busy. And that
agreement-you’ll
need to rewrite it.”
“Got it.” Sharon's voice was steady, her expression unreadable. “If that’s all, I'll leave now.”
He didn’t respond.
She didn’t seem to care. She walked past him without another glance.
Then, as if remembering something, she stopped.
Carter's gaze flicked up. “Something else?”
Sharon nodded, picking up the glass of water from the table.

“Yeah. Almost forgot.”
Carter watched, confused. After all that, was she just... thirsty?
Before the thought could fully form, she hurled the entire glass of water straight into his face.
Not a single drop missed.
Ice-cold water streamed down the sharp angles of his face, soaking into his immaculate suit.
Sharon said, “Earlier, you helddown and let Kelly slap me. Consider this payback.”
And without another word, she turned and walked out of the villa. She never looked back.
The weekend arrived before they knew it.
Today was the kindergarten’s talent show, and Sharon had cearly with a violin case over her shoulder and
little Matty by
her side.
“Sharon, I'm so nervous,” Matty admitted, taking deep breaths-once, twice-but the butterflies in his stomach
wouldn't go
away.
Sharon knelt to his level. “Don’t be. Just follow my lead during the performance. Take your time-you’ve got this.”
Just as Matty opened his mouth to reply, a gentle voice spoke up behind them.
“Sharon... are you playing violin too?”
