Chapter 113
Her first reaction was shock at Tildaâs pregnancy, followed by a surge of anger.
âTildaâ she growled, her gaze fixed on Tilda.
Tilda then put on an expression as if she had just realized she had said something wrong. âIâm sorry. I thought Edwin had told you about my hospitalization. That day when you rushed into the hospital, and Irene was wheeled in, Edwin and I just happened to see you.
âI knew Edwin must have been worried, so I offered to let him go see you. No matter what, he is Ireneâs father and should take some responsibility as a father.
âNo matter what happens between u him to care for her.
us adults, Irene is innocent. Even if Edwin and I get married, Irene will always be Edwinâs child, and itâs right for
So, was the care Edwin had shown recently all at Tildaâs behest
No wonder, he had always been indifferent to Irene before, but when she fell ill, it was as if he had completely changed.
The previous words from Edwin, saying he wouldnât fight with her for Irene and would let them stay, must have been Tildaâs idea too,
How obedient was Edwin to Tilda?
Sharon felt a chill throughout her body, and her grip on the wheelchairâs handle tightened silently, her knuckles turning pale.
âMommy, why did she say Daddy only wants the brother and not me?â came Treneâs weak voice by her ear.
Sharon suddenly snapped back to reality,
Tilda had already turned and left, and Irene, seated in the wheelchair, looked at Sharon with lifeless, large eyes.
Those eyes were brimming with bright tears
âIrene âSharon felt as if an invisible knife had brutally cut into her heart, causing pain and numbness.
She crouched down to comfort Irene, but Irene had already hung her head. âI understand now, Daddy doesnât like me at all. He only came to see me because that Madam forced him. Madom and Daddy have a brother. He doesnât want me anymoreâ¦
âIreneâ¦
Sharon had intended to say something to gloss over the situation, but she hadnât expected Irene to be so perceptive.
Irene had easily understood what Tilda meant.
She nervously swallowed, feeling her mouth dry and parched, especially when she saw Ireneâs face, which had dimmed to the point of having no luster at all. It felt as if there was a stone stuck in her throat, preventing her from uttering a single word.
Sharon suddenly remembered that on the day Irene was admitted to the hospital. She had indeed seen both Edwin and Tilda.
Edwin had been holding Tilda at that time, radiating a protective instinct, his eyes and brows filled with the utmost caution.
She was pregnant, carrying their baby Naturally, he would be extremely careful.
The only one pitiable was Irene.
Irene had been foolishly happy for so many days under the illusion of fatherly love he had created, only to have it ruthlessly shattered in the end. At that moment, the only thing Sharon could do was to take Irene into her arms and hold her tight. âIrene, donât be afraid. You still have ne
Irene nestled silenty in Sharonâs embrace, nuzzling her shoulder like a kitten, not crying, shouting, or making a fuse.
She was so quiet that it was heartâwrenching-
After a long while, she extended her small hand and gently patted Sharonâs back. âMommy, I donât just have you. I also have Ms. Alanna, Mr. Blake, Mr. Silva, Mr. Jensen, and Grandpa. They all like me. Mommy, Iâm not sad at allâ
These words of understanding pricked Shuronâs heart with a mix of warmth and sourness, causing her eyes to redden,
Worried that Edwinâs reappearance might upset Irene, Sluron took care of the discharge procedures for trene that very day.
Chapter 113
Fortunately, Irene hadnât undergone major surgery, and her wound had mostly healed.
Instead of returning to their previous residence, Sharon went to another property she owned,
She contacted Alanna and then turned off her phone.
Alanna arrived shortly after, accompanied by a doctor.
âWhatâs going on? Why did she suddenly get appendicitis I thought you guys had already gone back to Pinevale, Alanna said, unaware of Ireneâs hospitalization as she had been traveling with Blake
Sharon briefly explained the situation, omitting the details about Edwin.
She was concerned that Alanna might confront Edwin and also feared it would bring up painful memories for Irene.
Sharon took care of Irene for a few more days
Until Alanna informed her that the new person they had been interested in was hesitant to sign the contract due to certain concerns.
âHelp me set up a meeting with him. I go see him as Foxy Damon,â Sharon said.
Alanna couldnât think of any other solution, so she agreed and helped make the arrangements.
The next day, Sharon left Irene in Alannaâs care and went to a small coffee shop to meet the young man.
The young man appeared to be in his early twenties, probably just off the construction site, dressed in worn but clean clothes, a safety helmet on his head, with tanned skin that seemed out of place in the coffee shopâs environment.
Upon seeing her, the young man somewhat awkwardly drew back his hands.
Sharon greeted him politely, telling him that she too had come from a small place like Pinevale.
The young manâs unease subsided, and he gradually began to converse with her.
Although shy, the young man had many unique insights, and they ended up talking for quite a while.

By the end of their meeting, knowing that she was also signed with Bisney Entertainment, he finally agreed to join Bisney Entertainment. Sharon saw him out, went over some details, and then waved goodbye.
As soon as she turned around, she saw a familiar figure, Edwin.
He was standing at a slight distance, perhaps having watched her for some time.
Even from afar, she could see the troubled look on his face, indicating he was not in a good mood.
Sharon was slightly taken aback, considering ignoring him and leaving, but he approached her.
âWhy did you discharge so suddenly? Why didnât you tell me? Why did you even turn off your phone?â he asked in a series, his tone quite harsh. Sharon gave a faint smile, light yet with a hint of sarcasm.
âMr. Stanley, Irene has recovered, and we didnât want to take up any more of your time, so we discharged early, she said politely.
The more polite her words, the more distant their relationship seemed.
Edwin rubbed his temple uncomfortably, displeased with her aloof attitude. âDonât forget. Irene is my child.â
âMr. Stanley, if you truly want a child so much, you can go back and take good care of Ms. Gill. She can give you many. As for Irene. Itâs enough that she lus me who cares for her, Sharon responded, then walked past him without another word.
Edwin watched her leave with a resolute turn, his brows knitting together silently.
He had a persistent feeling that something was amiss.
Just a few days ago, she was still very polite to him.
After observing her these past few days, he could see that she was not the kind of person who would disregard Ireneâs wishes and make decisions based on her own preferences in an overbearing manner.

Could it be because of Irene!
What had gone wrong?
After leaving Edwin, Sharon glanced down at her watch.
She had promised Irene that she would be home within two hours.
Now, there was only half an hour left.
Irene, who was already more vulnerable after the surgery, had been deeply affected by Tildaâs words, which had caused her invisible emotional harm. As a result, Irene had become quite clingy recently.
Sharon had no intention of blaming Irene. She understood how much Irene lacked a sense of security inside.
Unconsciously, Sharon quickened her pace.
She had only taken a few steps when a dark figure suddenly rushed out, raising a hand to slap at her.
