No More Trouble, No More You

Sharon felt her heart grow colder with each message she read.

After sending them, Riley withdrew the messages one by one, just as she always did, never giving Sharon the chance to take a screenshot.

But this time, Sharon recorded the screen.

She saved the video, forced herself to remain calm, and went to accompany James for dinner.

In the end, Sharon still refused to take on the wedding planning job.

Sean followed through and sold the wedding company.

Sean. "I didn't mean to target you, but Riley cried because of you, and I had to give her an explanation. Don't be mad—once she calms down, I'll buy the company back."

Looking at his message, Sharon curved her lips in mockery.

He knew he was in the wrong.

But he still did it, forcing her to compromise again and again.

In the past, she had always tried not to make things difficult for him between her and Riley.

She had felt sorry for him.

But he had never once felt sorry for her...

That evening, Sharon arranged to meet with the illegitimate son of the Collins family for dinner.

"I can sell you the shares I hold in the Collins Group at a lower price. I have only one condition—the transaction must take place in 25 days."

Jack Collins cocked his brows, his expression playful. "That brother of mine hates me the most. Aren't you afraid he'll hate you too for doing this?"

"That has nothing to do with you. If you're not interested, I'll sell the shares to someone else."

"Wait, Sharon, I want them, I want them!"

After sealing the deal with Sharon, Jack left whistling.

On his way back, he ran into Sean.

Though they were related by blood, they hated each other more than anyone else in the world and usually wished they could strangle each other on sight.

But this time, Jack calmly called out to Sean.

"Sean, I'm just curious. Half of your shares are in Sharon's hands. You wronged her for your mistress—aren't you afraid she'll get mad and sell them to me?"

Sean sneered, his voice filled with disgust. "Keep dreaming. My wife would never do anything to hurt me!"

He knew Sharon had been upset recently, but he figured he could coax her after some time.

He was well aware of how much she loved him.

No matter how angry she was, he was sure she wouldn't go so far as to sell her shares to Jack!

Sharon had no idea what Jack and Sean talked about, nor did she care.

For the past few days, James had been in low spirits.

Since his fever had gone down, she decided to take him camping to watch the stars.

But just as she was about to finish setting up the tent, she suddenly heard James's cries.

She rushed over and saw Riley and Jordan snatching James's telescope, grilled sausages, glowing shoes, and visibility jacket.

Riley cursed under her breath and even tried to kick the boy lying on the ground.

"Riley, you are not allowed to bully my son!"

Sharon shielded James behind her, glaring at Riley. "What right do you have to take my son's things and hit him?"

"You should feel honored that I even like that little bastard's things! Do you really think I need to snatch them? As long as I say the word, Sean will take them for me anyway!"

Riley looked smug.

Sharon was so furious that she felt lightheaded. "Riley, don't push it!"

"So what if I do? You're just a useless nobody—what can you do?"

Riley suddenly shoved Sharon down the slope and then staggered back, collapsing onto the ground and wailing.

"Sean, Sharon is jealous that I'm marrying you! She tried to push me down, but I dodged, and she fell instead. What should I do?"

Sharon tumbled down the slope, hitting her head against a rock, forming a swollen bump.

The pain left her speechless.

But when Sean pulled her back up, the first thing he did was blame her.

"Sharon, how could you be so vicious? Last time, you spread rumors everywhere that Riley was a mistress. She didn't even hold it against you, and now you actually tried to push her down a hill... Are you insane?"

James clutched his shirt. "Ms. Winston stole my things and pushed Mommy down the hill! Mommy didn't hurt anyone!"

Right after he finished speaking, Riley shoved Jordan.

Jordan burst into tears. "Mr. Collins, save me and Mommy! Ms. Milton and James said for us to go die!"

She sobbed so hard that she could barely breathe.

Sean had wavered slightly after hearing James's words, but now, his hesitation disappeared completely.

He grabbed James by the collar. "You're picking up all the bad habits and none of the good ones. At such a young age, your mother has already taught you to lie! From now on, I'll teach you myself!"

"I didn't lie..." James cried loudly.

Sean ignored him completely, dragging him toward the car.

"Mommy! Mommy, help me! I don't want to go with Daddy!"

Sharon was dizzy, nauseous, and filled with rage. She struggled to get up from the ground.

"James, don't be afraid. I’m here for you! Sean, give my son back to me!"

But before she could even take a few steps, the car had already driven away.
