Chapter 32
Sharon didnât delve into thar thought further, but her heart still skipped a beat with a sharp twinge of pain.
Alanna drove Sharon straight to Bisney Entertainment, where Irene was also present. After the recent events at the Stanley familyâs place, Sharon didnât want to risk anything happening to Irene and hadnât sent her to school
Irene walked over, led by Randall. âMommyâ She charged into Sharonâs arms. Although it had only been a few hours apart, she had missed her mother dearly.
Sharon bent down to catch her little body, the softness immediately melting the chill in her heart. Were you good, Irene! You didnât interrupt Mr. Silvaâs live streaming, did you?â she asked gently
âShe didnât, Randall answered, his voice warm and reassuring. His flawless face showed a touch of care for Sharon, and his eyes smiled in a way that was just right.
âMommy, I was very good.â Irene chimed in. Staying with Rocky and Alanna had shaped her into quite a lively person. But she secretly wanted Randall to be her dad. She thought that only if she was wellâbehaved would Randall like her more.
âMr. Silva is handsome and kind, and he can do really hard dances on the icel Trene praised Randall out of the blue and glanced at Sharon with clear intention of promoting Randall to her.
Sharon saw right through her scheme but pretended not to understand. She gently tapped Ireneâs nose. âI have something to tell you.
Irene could only wave her hand reluctantly, âBye, Mr. Silva.â
Alanna pretended to be jealous. âSo quick to ignore me for a pretty face, huh?â
Irene pouted and ran to Alanna, planting a kiss on her nose. âI didnât forget you, Alanna. Look, I only kiss you like this. Iâve never kissed Mr. Silva.â She thought only her mom could kiss Randall
Alanna laughed and returned several kisses on Ireneâs check before nudging her. âWell, go inside with your mommy.â
Sharon took Irene into Alannaâs office and closed the door. After setting Irene on a chair. Sharon held her shoulders gently and said. Tve muide things clear with the Stanley family today. They wonât be taking you away anymore.â
âReally?â Ireneâs face brightened. Her memories of the Stanley family were far from fond, and she disliked them more than ever.
âMommy, they didnât bully you, did they?â Concern quickly clouded her joy as she tenderly cupped Sharonâs face and checked it carefully. In her memory, Tina would slap Sharon whenever she was upset. Seeing nu mark on Sharonâs face, Irene breathed a sigh of relief.
Sharon quietly observed her daughterâs caring gestures, her heart softening. Irene was the only one who cared for her at the Stanley family and comforted her whenever Tina hit her or Jasmine was mean
Sharon chuckled and held her daughterâs soft hand. âDonât worry. They wonât bully me again. Also I owe you an apology.â She lowered h
her head in shame as she explained how sheâd made the Stanley family give up on Irene. âSorry, Irene. I set a poor example
Even if she kept quiet, Irene would eventually hear it from the Stanley family. Moreover, Irene and she stuck together through thick and thin. She wanted to maintain an equal relationship with Irene, not just the usual dynamic of elders and juniors.
âMommy, you said Iâm the daughter of Bisney Entertainmentâs owner, and you are indeed the owner. Thereâs nothing wrong with that,â Irene replied. âSo, you didnât lie. You just changed the way you said it â
Her response took Sharon by surprise. When did this little one get so clevert Sheâs able to grasp such complex ideas, huh? she thought.
Irene noticed Sharonâs puzzled look and blinked triumphantly. âMr. Jensen and Mr. Silva taught me a lot about streaming. They said itâs important how one grabs peopleâs attention with their words. Iâve been paying real close attentionâ
Pride shone on Ireneâs face, and Sharon couldnât help but find her daughter unterly adorable and laugh. She stroked her little oneâs soft hair in
Treneâs really grown up. Deciding to break away from the Stanley family was definitely the smart move, she thought.
Just then, her phone started ringing. Glancing down, Sharon recognized the number all too well,
There was a time when she longed to call it yet never dared to even touch her phone, fearing the person on the other end would be displeased.
Now, sering that number left her feeling nothing at all. She realized that once a person decided to dunge, thary could become very cold. For example, she didnât even want to hear the voice on the other end now.
Without a thought, Sharon hung up.

On the other end. Edwin stared at lus phone, the display showing the call had been disconnected. His face clouded with an indescribable alarkness. âShe dares to ignore me after what sheâs done, huh? he thought.

âYou keep saying Sharon is a good person. Is this you standard for people?â Idrie had long been irked by Rayâs favoritism towand Sharon However, he was now in a good mood because the worse Sharon looked, the less likely Edwin would recommmeet with her.
Across from Edric, Tilda was also pleased with the turn of events. Now that even the chill isnât Edwins, when do I have to worry about? As long as that one thing remains a secret, Delwin has to cherish and love me forever, she thought.
Getting up elegantly, Tilda walked to a quiet spot before she pulled out her cell phone and made a call, âYou told me once that because of something, Edwinâs been pampering me and granting my wishes and that he would never leave me. What is LIF
