As long as he ignored her, she would eventually reflect on her actions and come to apologize.However, day after day passed, and Sharon never came.By the time Sean finally found time to look for her and James, a whole month had gone by.Riley followed beside him. "Sean, when you see Sharon, make sure to talk things through calmly. She doesn't have a good temper like I do—be careful not to provoke her again!""It was her fault to begin with. Am I supposed to lower myself and apologize instead? If she's still so stubborn and unrepentant, then she can forget about being Mrs. Collins from now on!"Sean let out a cold snort, clearly in a foul mood.Sharon had made so many mistakes, yet he had brushed past them and done his best to make it up to Riley.He had always put her first, yet she had the audacity to act high and mighty with him!With a stern expression, Sean first went to the hotel where Sharon and her son had been staying.But—"Ms. Milton and her son left a month ago."
Meanwhile, Sharon took James back to her hometown and settled down.After arriving, she often heard news about Sean and Riley.In order to clear their names from being labeled as a scumbag and a mistress, they once again used the excuse of repaying a favor.Sean righteously declared, "I only see Riley as a sister. I treat her so well purely to repay her father for saving my life. There has never been anything inappropriate between us."Riley tearfully complained, "Sharon is petty and jealous, spreading rumors everywhere that I'm a mistress. Sean and I had no choice but to have a fake marriage!"They had said those words more than once.If Sharon still held grudges, it meant she was being immature and ungrateful.But netizens didn't buy it—"Since when does repaying a favor involve spending the night in a hotel together?""If he was so determined to repay a favor, he should have married his 'sister' in the first place. Why ruin Sharon's life?""Oh wow, to clear the mistress's
Hearing his voice, James was the first to react.The little one turned pale and immediately hid behind Sharon. "Mommy, I'm scared!""Don't be afraid. I won't let him take you away again!"Sharon looked at Sean.She had once loved this man deeply, but now when she saw him, all that remained was pure hatred.Sean, with red eyes and fury, stormed over."Sharon, what is this? How close are you getting with Chris? What do you take me for?"Sharon replied indifferently, "My ex-husband."Sean froze, his face turning red. "We only had a fake divorce!""The divorce agreement is real, and the divorce certificate is real. How is it a fake divorce?" Sharon mocked.James tugged at her hand and then at Chris's. "Mommy, Mr. West, let's go. I don't want to play anymore..."Seeing this, Sean was on the verge of exploding. "James, look closely, I'm your dad, not him!"James, startled by his shout, burst into tears.Sharon, already in a foul mood, felt her anger escalate.She coldly stared
The team of lawyers handed Sharon a business card after showing her a document."Ms. Milton, all the assets you've accepted are currently being managed by a professional team. If you have any other thoughts, feel free to contact me anytime."After the lawyer spoke, he and his team left in a grand procession.Chris raised his eyebrows. "Sharon, from now on, I'll be working for you as a long-term servant. You mustn't treat me unfairly!""You didn't even look at the contract, aren't you afraid something will go wrong?"He caught Sharon off guard, leaving her stunned and unsure of how to respond.Chris smiled smugly. "With all my assets, you didn't think it could be organized so quickly, did you? I prepared everything before you agreed to marry Sean. I just didn't have the chance to give it to you."Sharon had never been good at understanding romantic matters, and Chris was someone who would always beat around the bush.It wasn't until the day she agreed to marry Sean that Chris dr
Saturday.Sharon took James to have her vision checked and ran into Riley and her daughter.Riley sneered. "Sean and I are already married, and you're still haunting us. Sharon, have you no shame?"Sharon was so angry she almost laughed. "You're the one trying to be a mistress, and you still have the guts to say that to me?"Riley had just begun to speak when she saw Sean and immediately changed her tone."Sharon, I just didn't want you and Sean to misunderstand me, so I came to explain. You've cursed me, insulted me, and I've endured it, but how could you hurt Jordan?"Jordan plopped down on the floor and began to cry loudly."James, Ms. Milton, stop hitting me, it hurts so much!"Sean rushed over, pushed Sharon and James aside, and picked Jordan up.James stumbled from the push, and if Sharon hadn't caught him, he would've crashed into the iron chair.Sharon was both shocked and angry.But before she could question him, Sean glared at her and scolded her."Sharon, enough!
Sharon was annoyed at the three in front of her, so she pulled James and left.Riley had fallen, and blood was dripping from her head as she cried pitifully and called out to her."Sharon, how could you treat me and Sean like this? We always tried to take care of you. Is it wrong for us to be kind to you? Ouch!"Sharon slapped her, feeling disgusted. "Stop being so disgusting! Do you really think everyone is like Sean, falling for your tricks?"She grabbed James and left.Behind her, Sean angrily shouted at her, but she acted as if she didn't hear him.Sean looked at Riley's injury and the swollen eyes of the crying Jordan, feeling heartbroken and guilty.He took them to get their wounds treated."Sorry, Riley, I couldn't control Sharon and made you and Jordan suffer."Riley sobbed, "I don't mind suffering a little, but Jordan is so young... Sharon is bullying us too much. Just because we are generous, does she think she can keep bullying us like this?""Mr. Collins, Ms. Milt
Riley heard the noise outside and turned her head to look.When she saw Sean, she froze for a moment, then hurriedly walked out. "Sean, I..."Sean stood up, gritting his teeth. "Riley, I treated you like my own sister, took care of you in every way, and even divorced the person I loved the most for you. How could you do this to me?"He looked at her, his eyes bloodshot.Riley was scared, stumbling as she spoke. "Sean, please listen to me, it's not what you think, I..."She reached out to grab his hand, wanting to explain.Sean forcefully pushed her away.Riley screamed and fell to the ground.In the past, whenever she was like this, Sean would have been the one most worried about her.But now, seeing her like this, all he could think about was how she had used this pitiful and weak image to deceive him!Sean glared at her. "You admitted it just now, and now you're changing your words. Are you trying to deceive me again?"The last time he saw her send those provocative words
"Cough cough!"Sharon choked on her own saliva.Her son was only five years old, but he was already so sharp!Chris's handsome face turned bright red.The atmosphere was extremely awkward."James, don't talk nonsense, even if I were a homewrecker, I'd still be a good one," Chris said hastily.The little guy blinked, looking confused. "Are there good and bad homewreckers?"Sharon shot Chris a glare. "No, homewreckers are all bad!"She had no idea Chris had once considered being a homewrecker!Chris gave an awkward laugh. "Your mom is right. James, come on, I got you the two-meter Transformer. Let's go see if you like it.""As long as it's from Daddy, I like it.""Smooth talker.""I got it from you, Daddy."They went out shortly after, but soon, James's voice came from outside. "Mommy, can you take a picture of me and Daddy?""Coming."Sharon walked out.Chris had James on his shoulders, already posing for the photo.She took several shots for them.After dinner, it sta
"Remember, absolutely do not let Sharon and James in. Don't let them ruin my wedding with Riley."Sean recalled his previous words and immediately regretted them.He had tried so hard but still couldn't get in. Drunk and stumbling, he fell into the water on his way home.Just as he was about to drown, someone saved him.Sean didn't die, but as he lay there, on the brink of death, memories from his past life flooded back.In the hospital bed, he was filled with regret and guilt, tears streaming down his face."So, in my past life, my arrogance led to the deaths of Sharon and James. Even after they died, I only found out 10 years later that Riley had been deceiving me."Had Sharon also been reborn?‘No wonder her attitude suddenly changed and she agreed to the divorce, and hated me so much!’He had thought that as long as his son didn't die, he could still earn their forgiveness.But now, how could he face Sharon and James?How could he have been so foolish, so easily manipula
Sean's father only cared about Jack and treated him poorly, the person he was closest to was his mother.Now, his mother had attempted suicide because of him, and she wanted to sever their mother-son relationship. His heart felt as though it had been ripped out.But Sean didn't even have time to console his mother, as he was being bombarded with calls from the shareholders who were criticizing him."Have you lost your mind? You kept saying the Ziri Project was all set, so how did it end up in Jack's hands?""Are you a CEO or just a fool being played by a woman?"Even a lawyer called him. "Mr. Collins, I'm representing Ms. Winston, and I'm here to handle your divorce proceedings. She wants you to leave with nothing."Upon hearing this, Sean was filled with disbelief and thought the lawyer was just making things up.He went to prison to see Riley.However, she unexpectedly pointed at his nose and scolded him, "My father died saving you, and all I wanted was to be your wife. Is th
Sharon mocked, "You keep saying you were wrong and will make it up to me and James, but where's the compensation? I don't see you doing anything!"Sean grabbed her hand, his tone sincere. "I couldn't take revenge on Riley and Jordan, but I will treat you and James well from now on, very well, I swear!""Turning the duties of a husband and father into 'compensation'. Sean, you really have no shame!" Sharon yanked her hand away. "I will never remarry you. You can give up on that!"He had no clarity in his actions, and only she and their son would be the ones to suffer.Chris called, worried.Sharon was about to go, but Sean suddenly hugged her tightly from behind.His tears fell on her neck, scalding hot."I was just deceived and did some wrong things. But in the end, I didn't cause any irreversible consequences. I've turned back now, please forgive me!"The moment he said that, Sharon was filled with rage."Let go!" She gritted her teeth."Sharon, listen to me... Ah!"Sharon
James disliked their chatter and had already started eating."The fried chickens are delicious! And so is the steak! Daddy, I love you so much!"Chris leaned over and kissed James on the cheek. "I love you too, James!"Sharon hadn't seen James this happy in a long time.At that moment, she had a fleeting feeling that they were just a happy family of three.After they finished eating, Chris drove, taking Sharon and James to the nursery.It was the parent-child sports day, and the little guy had specifically invited them both.On the way, James chattered excitedly."This time, I have both Daddy and Mommy with me. Let's see who will still laugh at me for not having a Daddy! Mommy, Daddy, Jordan’s not at the new nursery. No one is bullying me anymore. I’m so happy! I don’t have to envy others for having a Daddy anymore. I also have a super, super awesome Daddy!"James was absolutely delighted.But the more Sharon listened, the more uncomfortable she felt deep down.Her son was v
