Chapter 52
Carter froze for a moment. Something about Sharon felt different-subtly, but undeniably changed.
Could she really want a divorce?
Before he could think further, his phone rang again.
Without another glance at Sharon, he turned and walked away grimly.
Outside, the massive LED screens across the city lit up with footage showing the so-called “intentional car crash” involving
Sharon.
The video played clearly, exposing the truth in stark contrast to the earlier rumors. Sharon hadn’t caused the crash. It was Kelly’s car that had deliberately rammed into hers. (1
At first, the crowd was confused, murmuring as they watched:
“What’s going on? Wasn’t someone accused of intentionally hitting someone else? But this… this looks like the opposite.”
“God, that car didn’t even slow down. That’s straight-up attempted murder.”
“Who mistakes the gas for the brake and drives that straight? No way-this was on purpose.
Then came another clip-the full footage of Kelly tearfully claiming she’d been bullied by Sharon, lamenting that she didn’t have much time left to live.
On the screen, Kelly looked pitiful and innocent as she spoke about the bracelet she wore-an heirloom, supposedly meant for the Biggs family’s future daughter-in-law.
Although Sharon had long since lost hope in Theo, he was still just a child. She didn’t want him dragged into a storm of online hate, so she had cut out all mentions of him in the released footage.
What she left intact, though, was enough.
The part where Kelly smugly described how well Carter treated her.
It was more than enough.
Viewers were quick to react.
“Damn, this Kelly girl is seriously manipulative. And judging by what she said, she doesn’t look bullied at all.”
“She’s bold, showing off like that in front of the wife. Props to Mrs. Biggs for staying calm. I’d have slapped that bitch already.”
“Did you hear that? Even if Carter is with his wife, he runs off the second this side chick calls. Unbelievable.”
The tide of public opinion turned fast. Those who saw the whole truth were openly disgusted by Kelly’s performative innocence.
Still, as an influencer with a sizable fanbase, Kelly wasn’t without support. Her die-hard fans jumped in, twisting the narrative.
“Sharon stole Kelly’s man first! Now it’s just karma.”
“Kelly doesn’t have long to live. She’s just trying to make peace before it’s too late. What’s so wrong with that?”
“If you’re not the one being loved, you’re the mistress.”
“Sharon, let go already. All you’re losing is a marriage. Kelly’s losing her life.”

But then Sharon brought out her final piece: concrete evidence that Kelly and Carter had broken up long before she and Carter got together. It was a slap in the face to Kelly’s fans.
To make her stance clear, Sharon recorded a video herself.
“To those spreading false rumors, attacking me online, and leaking my private information-I’ve preserved the evidence. My lawyers are already handling it,” she said calmly. “And those who physically assaulted me earlier, I’ll be pursuing criminal charges against each of you.”
That afternoon, the police released an official statement.
The accident had been fully investigated. Sharon bore no responsibility whatsoever. The public was urged to stop perpetuating
false narratives.
As for those so-called eyewitnesses? Turns out, they’d fabricated their accounts for attention-none had any real evidence.
Shortly after the announcement went live, those same self-proclaimed witnesses began issuing public apologies, one after
another.
