Tears streamed silently down Kelly's cheeks, delicate and glistening like petals soaked in the rain. She looked
fragile, heartbreakingly so.
Carter's face was like ice. His cold, blade-sharp gaze landed on Sharon with cutting precision.
Kelly grabbed his arm in a panic. “Carter, it wasn’t Sharon's fault. please don’t blher. | just lost my

Theo rushed over, his voice full of worry. “Kelly, are you okay?”
Kelly forced a weak smile. “I'm fine...”
But before the words fully left her lips, she suddenly collapsed.
Without sparing Sharon another glance, Carter scooped Kelly into his arms and strode toward the car. Theo
trailed after him, never once looking back.
Sharon stood frozen, watching the two of them walk away. Their retreating figures blurred slightly before her

Sharon had thought that since Xavier had paid her so much, his son Matty must be difficult to manage.
But after a single day together, she realized Matty was surprisingly easy.

“Someone dug up your identity... ugh, it's too much to explain. Just look at the trending topics!”
Wendy hung up in a rush. Sharon, still a little skeptical, opened her phone and scrolled to the hot search list.
She'd always kept a low profile. Even though she’d been married to Carter for five years, they'd barely appeared
together in public. Aside from a few of Carter's acquaintances, hardly anyone in their circle even knew her.
How could she be trending?
Puzzled, she tapped into the top headline-highlighted in bold, blood-red characters.
It was her face.

Kelly looked up at her with red eyes and a tearful, innocent expression, as if she were sdelicate flower

Sharon clicked on the attached video.
The first thing that played was her own voice, loud and clear. “Well, | obviously can’t compare to your charm.
Carter's sister likes you. His friends adore you. Even Carter and Theo are bewitched by you. Seems even God
prefers your type.”
