“Sharon, wait a moment,” Carter said.

Sharon frowned. “What is it?”

Carter asked, “Are you free later? Want to go pick up Theo together?”

Sharon shot back, “Can’t you go yourself?”

Carter fell silent for a moment. “Your dad has taken Theo away for several days now. Every time I go to pick him up, your dad

tells me to wait a little longer.”

Sharon’s tone sharpened with sarcasm. “Carter, be honest, how many times have you lost Theo? Do you even know how to take care of a child?”

Carter replied calmly, “You misunderstand. It wasn’t me who lost him this time. Mr. Kalen went to my mom’s place, and with my mother’s consent, took Theo to his home to stay there for a few days.”

Madeline had always wanted to climb higher by aligning with the Kalen family. Now that she knew Richard was Theo’s maternal grandfather, she’d be willing to send Theo to Richard for a few days-or even sell him to the Kalen family without hesitation.

Sharon knew exactly what kind of person Madeline was and understood Richard’s character even better. If Richard wanted Theo to live with them, he certainly wouldn’t let him leave easily.

It was no surprise Carter couldn’t get Theo back.

“I understand,” Sharon said.

“Are you coming to find me?” Carter asked.

Sharon hesitated to get into Carter’s car. She suspected Nate or Kelly-two people she disliked-might be inside. After all, Kelly and the Kalen family lived in the same neighborhood; it would be a natural route.

“I’d rather you come pick me up,” Sharon said. If Kelly or Nate came along, she could just refuse to get in.

Carter was silent for a moment, then agreed, “Alright.”

After hanging up, Sharon turned to Wendy and Thomas. “I need to go pick up Theo first, so I won’t be driving you back.”

She looked at John. “John, could you help me send them home, please?”

“Sure,” he replied.

Sharon said her goodbyes one by one.

Before leaving, Xavier looked at Sharon and said, “Sharon, I’ll be waiting for that painting you promised.”

Sharon smiled and nodded.

Not long after everyone left, Carter arrived-alone. Kelly hadn’t come along.

Sharon asked, “Why didn’t Kelly come along?”

Carter replied flatly, “I figured you wouldn’t want to see her.”

Sharon shot him a look. “Looks like you’re not entirely without sense after all.”

In the past, Carter had knowingly brought Kelly in front of her, despite knowing how much she hated Kelly. Frankly, it was just disregard for her feelings.

The thought passed quickly through Sharon’s mind.

“Get in.”

Carter took the passenger seat.

Once the car started moving, his gaze swept over the interior. “You got a new car?”

Sharon gave a faint “Mhm,” showing no intention to elaborate.

Carter, usually taciturn, surprisingly started a conversation. “Is this car modified?”

Sharon was a bit taken aback. “How do you know?”

“The engine sounds different,” Carter said.

After Sharon’s car was repaired last time, Wendy and John personally upgraded it for her.

They knew about her past racing practice. Wendy loved how spirited and elegant Sharon looked behind the wheel. She wanted Sharon to rediscover her old passion.

Sharon’s main focus had always been quiet, artistic pursuits. She hadn’t raced in years, so her skills naturally weren’t what they used to be. But occasionally taking Wendy out for a spin to relax wasn’t out of the question.
