Chapter 92
Sensing the shift in Sharon's tone, Wendy lowered her voice.
“Sharon, no matter how you look at it, Kelly tried to take her own life because of what I said. Even if I'm your
friend, it’s not unreasonable for him to clooking for an explanation.”
Wendy was usually the one to flare up at the smallest spark. But today, she was surprisingly calm.
“She gambled with her life and ended up in the emergency room, going through all that pain. And me? All | had
to do was offer a half-hearted apology. Honestly, | got off easy-if anything, | cout ahead.”
She paused before adding, “Don’t blCarter. If it weren't for your sake, there's no way this would've ended so
cleanly.”
Sharon knew Wendy was right. But still, there was a heaviness lodged in her chest that wouldn't budge.
She glanced at the bruises on Wendy's face. “But... your injuries-"
“They weren't from Carter. Every debt has its debtor. This one’s not his to carry.”

Wendy looked at her, gaze steady and serious.
“Sharon, maybe this was Kelly's goal all along. Don’t fall for it.”
Sharon didn’t reply.
Just then, there was a soft knock at the door.
Kelly stepped in.
“Carter just toldhe saw you both downstairs... | heard Wendy was hurt, so | cto check in.”
The sight of Kelly made the distaste on Wendy's face impossible to hide.
“Fox coming to offer New Year's greetings to the hen,” she muttered.
Kelly didn’t seem to mind the jab. She smiled at Sharon.
“Congratulations, Sharon. You finally found Wendy.”
Sharon looked at her calmly. “Was it you, Kelly, who kidnapped Wendy?”
Kelly tilted her head, confusion written across her face. “Sharon, I'm not sure what you mean...”
It was clear-she was going to play dumb to the end.
Sharon gave a cold smile and stepped forward. “If you don’t want to admit it, that’s fine. I've already reported it
to the police. Whether it was you or not, an investigation will make it clear.”
Sharon had no power, no influence. Rescuing Wendy hadn't been easy. So she’d taken the simplest route-called
the police. It was the authorities who had ultimately gotten Wendy out.
She looked Kelly straight in the eye and said, slowly and clearly, “It's actually perfect you came. If you hadn't, |
was just about to go looking for you.”
Kelly didn’t even blink. She merely smiled.
“Carter won't allow it.”
At that moment, another knock cfrom the door. Two uniformed police officers stepped inside. They
approached Kelly directly.

“Excuse me, are you Kelly Walt?”
She nodded lightly. “I am.”
“You've been reported as a suspect in a kidnapping case. Please cwith us.”
“I didn’t do anything,” she said, shaking her head. “There must be smistake.”
“That'll be determined after the investigation. We'll need your cooperation.”
Just as the officers moved to take her, Kelly suddenly let out a sharp, piercing scream.
“Aah!”
The shriek startled everyone in the room, even the officers.
Her expression twisted into panic, her pupils flashing with a wild, erratic glint. She started shouting, unhinged.
“I didn’t do it! I didn’t! Stay away from me! It wasn’t me! | swear it wasn’t me!”
The change in her was so jarring, so abrupt, it left the room frozen.
Kelly clutched Sharon's hand in a desperate grip.
“Sharon, | really didn’t do it... Please, I'm begging you... Please letgo, okay?”
Her long, sharp nails dug into Sharon's skin, sharp enough to draw blood. The sudden sting made Sharon
instinctively yank her hand away.
