Chapter 291
Iâll take the smaller car, Sharon said as she placed her hands on the chair, preparing to stand up.
âWell, III L
She had just halfway
y stood up when n she heard his voice, âYour fathe
father, was he a cobbler?â
âHuh?â Sharon panused halfway, looking at him in a daze as she responded.
Didnât he know this already!
Why is he suddenly asking again?
âWhatâs the point? As she was thinking this, the car started moving.
Missing the chance to sit with the woman he loves just to ask an irrelevant question, was it worth itâ Sharon silently mocked before adding, âMy dad was a very famous enlshler in Pinevale. Everyone in the area knows him.â
Sharon Cress secretly complained. He could not help but add, âMy father is Pinevaleâs famous shoemaker. Everyone in the village knows him,â Only he, her former fiancé, still needed to ask her for confirmation about this.
Edwin didnât dwell on this question; instead, he asked further, âSo, have you met me before?
Sharon looked at him curiously and wondered, âDoes Edwin remember me
Her voice was noticeably colder when she replied again. You could say that.â
His question clearly brought back memories, and as he asked, she remembered all the foolish things she had done.
Clouds of gloom covered her pretty face, her thoughts racing.
She was lost in her own world, completely unaware that the man beside her was suddenly shaken as if struck by a sudden blow!
His serious expression slowly turned to shock.
For the rest of the time. Sharon didnât say another word to him and closed her eyes to sleep.
When the car stopped, her body jolted awake, and she was feeling groggy
The man beside her stood up and left immediately
She wiped her mouth, feeling warmth on the side of her face.
Although she was asleep, she still had basic awareness. In her dream, she felt like she was leaning against something warm. She thought, âIt couldnât be Edwin: it must have been the seatback. It had to be
Outside the
car,
Edwin touched his arm, where Sharonâs warmth still lingered, and he could still feel the softness of her face.
The corners of his lips involuntarily curved up.
Sharon followed the others out of the car and looked up to see the churchâs grand and towering gates reaching into the sky. It was majestic. Looking inside from the gate, the path was lined with stone carvings of thrones and Renaissance patterns, all in a grong classical style.
The scent of incense and the sound of prayers chanting created a peaceful and serene atmosphere, instantly making her feel refreshed and inexplicably calm.
The church was indeed a good place, no wonder so many people chose to retreat from the world in such places.
Sharon marveled along the way, admiring the towering, ancientâstyle buildings around her, feeling as if she had traveled back in time. Suddenly, a figure came into view, blocking her path.
It was Talia, who had gotten out of another car.
Their car had arrived later than the bus, and Talia had evidently run all the way here as her chest heaved, panting heavily
She glared at
Sharon, her eyes filled with anger, c
completely shedding her previously pitiful, delicate image.

Chapter 291
âFoxy Damon, you dared to interfere between Edwin and me, itâs simply too much!â She angrily accused, her mouth pouting, looking like a convincing victim
Sharon looked at her and suddenly couldnât help but burst out laughing. Feeling mischievous, she deliberately made her uncomfortable and replied, âEdwin hasnât publicly announced his relationship with you, so at most, itâs fair competition between us, itâs not interference.â
instantly turning red as tears welled up again
âYou Talia exclaimed.
I her eyes instantly
Sharon thought in amusement. Ha! I just wanted to tease her for a bit.
Turns out sheâs quite the actress.
The tears came even faster than expected.
such talent, itâs a shame she isnât an actress.
Sharon even suspected for a
a oment that her foolishness was an
Talia couldnât come up with a logical argument, repeatedly saying pinfully, âHeâs mine; heâs always been mine!â
Anyone unaware would definitely think Sharon had greatly wronged her
Sharon had no interest in playing this game with her. She straightened up and said seriously. âSince heâs yours, you should take good care of him. But rest assured, I have no interest in himâ
After saying this, she flicked her ponytail. As she was not in a hurry to leave. Sharon leaned closer and whispered in Taliaâs ear, âEven though Iâm not interested in him, when you and your dad lived at my house back then, you stole thousands from my family. Should I ask your dad to settle this debri
The tens of thousands hack then were indeed a huge sum of money.
Sharon intentionally counted on her fingers and added. âYou left at least ten years ago, right? Considering the current market interest rate, it would be several hundred thousand now.â
Talia was
was at a loss for words
She looked at Sharon in shock and stammered. âYouâ
Sharon said, âIf your dad doesnât pay up, Iâll just have to tell Edwin about the disgraceful things you did. What would he think if he knew?â
Sharon had never found Edwinâs name as useful as it was now.
As soon as she finished speaking. Taliaâs face turned as pale as paper.
âYou⦠thatâs too muchâ After a long while, she finally whispered, her eyes filling with tears that were about to overflow.
Sharon remained silent.
After a while, probed, âHow about you explain why you harmed me?â
She didnât actually lack those hundreds of thousands, but she had never intended to let go of what happened before.
Talia couldnât control herself, and tears started to il
to flow down her face uncontrollably, and her body started to tremble.
Shuron couldnât be bothered to comfort her as she crossed her arms and watched on like a spectator.
Soon, many people had started to walk over
Tala knew that her tears wouldnât work on Sharon, so she could only murmur, âSheâid she didnât have feelings for Edwin, and said you did. She said that you wanted to take Edwin away. That is not allowed, itâs impossible
âShe? Who is she? Sharonâs pupils tightened as she pressed.
Talu sudeenly ran towards her, throwing herself into someoneâs arms and crying. âShe is Edwin Sharon slowly turned her head and saw her clinging to Edwin like a monkey, crying uncontrollably. Great! Clearly, I am the victim here, but it looks like in the one bullying her, Sharon thought Sharon couldnât be bothered by Taliaâs outdated, almost archaic way of playing the victim.

Chapter 291
Seeing Edwinâs deep eyes watching her, she shrugged innocently and walked past the two of them.
Behind her, Edwin, who had his hand on Talia, ready to throw her off, suddenly froze
His eyes followed Sharon deeply, watching her leave,
Ahhough she didnât say a word, her every move and expression perfectly matched what she had said before.
She had lost interest in him!
Her words were aligned with her actions!
As she reached the main hall, Ariella caught up with her and called out, âFoxy Damon.â
Ariella had always disliked being involved with Kenneth. After he got on the bus, she chose to take the smaller car
Used to her relationship with Sharon, Ariella didnât hesitate to throw an arm around her shoulder as they walked side by side up the giant stone
steps.
The two slender figures felt incredibly small as they ascended.
Ariella leaned close to her and reminded her. âMaisie has questionable character, be on giard with her
Though she didnât specify, Sharon immediately guessed she was referring to the roof collapse incident.
Sharon had already suspected something when Maisie actively pushed Talia and Edwin together.
Now, having it confirmed by Ariella, she felt more assured.
She remained calm as she turned to look at Ariella, and stated, âYou seem to have a great deal of hostility towards her.
