Dumping My Billionaire Ex

Chapter 20

This news was like a bolt from the blue for Tilda.

1. a. She had traveled a great distance back for Edwin, and despite his attitude earlier, she hadn't felt completely hopeless. But now, with Edwin proposing to cancel the divorce with Sharon. Tilda could no longer stay calm. 'So it's all because of Sharon, she thought.

She clenched her fists so tight that her nails pierced the skin, and her palms were filled with blood.

A deep hatred welled up on Tilda's beautiful face. "It was because of you that Edwin and I broke up four years ago. And now, this again? Her voice was eerily calm, as if she was talking about something trivial, but the cold smile on her lips was chilling

Moments later, she walked over to the computer, pulled up a message that had been sitting in her inbox for days, glanced at it briefly, and clicked

on a link...

Sharon wasn't planning on reporting to work at Bisney Entertainment, but as the boss, she decided to visit the company.

Dressed in white and radiating a fierce elegance, Alanna saw Sharon and snapped her fingers. "Hey, I got some juicy gossip about your ex-husband, Interested!" she said excitedly. "Nope." Sharon replied nonchalantly, picking up a report to read.

Ignoring Sharon's lack of interest, Alanna sat down and began, 'Last night. Tilda's computer was hacked, exposing a lot of stuff. Apparently, implicated in forging contracts. The scandal's blowing up big time, and if it turns out to be true, it might be the end of Tilda

Creating fake contracts often meant tax evasion, and there were plenty of scandals involving big stars and tax evasion-all ending with their careers ruined.

The news was indeed explosive. Even with her lack of interest, Sharon was momentarily stunned and forgot about the report

Teeks good, doesn't it? Alanna raised her fist, looking like a winner. "Evil deeds meet their due end. If it weren't for you back then, she would've been disgraced long ago. Instead of being grateful, she even ruined your marriage. She deserves to be punished. Justice never fails to show up"

Sharon only nodded and didn't say much. Tilda coming back wasn't the real problem; her marriage was doomed because Edwin didn't love her. Tikla just made the end come quicker.

"1 was just trying to help Edwin out back then. I never even thought about Tilda," Sharon said truthfully.

"Yeah, but if you hadn't spilled to the media that they were done and you and Edwin were talking marriage, do you think she could've just walked away like that? Do you think she would've done as well as she has these past four years?" Alanna said.

Back in the day, Sharon and Edwin somehow ended up having a one-night stand, and just as they dealt with it and came out they ran into Tilda The reporters caught her red-handed, all disheveled, with a guy under the covers. It was super awkward.

Tilda and Edwin were publicly engaged at that time, and everyone knew it You're in showbiz. Have you ever seen a star caught cheating will smiling on screent While you were getting the cold shoulder and misunderstandings from the Stanley family, she was living it up overseas. Her fame didn't suffer, and her career flourished. It's fine if she doesn't thank you but she's even going around playing the victim. I've seriously never seen someone as shameless as her, Alanna said, visibly upset.

Knowing Alanna was standing up for her, Sharon hugged her. "Thanks, girl."NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

"A thanks isn't enough. We're celebrating this. I want barbecue, the super spicy kindi," Alannä uid.

"Okay, barbecue it is, the super spicy kind. Sharon immediately took out her phone to search for nearby barbecue restaurants

Just then, the phone rang. It was Zelda Carroll, Irene's kindergarten teacher,

Sharon quickly answered, "Ms. Carroll, is everything okay? Are you calling at this time because Irene is unwell?" she asked.

"No, that's not it? Zelda's voice came through with a hint of hesitation. "It's just that Irene's father came and wanted to take her away... Could you come over, please!"

Sharon was quite surprised to hear it Edwin wanted to take trene, 'Shouldn't be be busy dealing with Tilda's contract issuer What does he want with Trene? But she didn't have time to think it through. After briefly speaking to Alanna, she hurried to the kindergarten.

Upon arrival, she didn't see Irene.

Zelda stood at the side and looked helpless. "The child's father insisted in taking her, and with his statis... we really can't argue, so...

Sharon had guessed this coming from the Stanley family and made it clear to Zelda that only she and Alanna could pick up frene. But it still happened anyhow....

10:59 AM

Chapter 20

She couldn't grasp why he'd have the nerve to take the kid after everything she said. Knowing Zelda did her hest, Sharon didn't trouble her but said, I'll handle this,"

She got in the car and headed to Stanley Manor, a place soaked in the Stanley family's history, a dream spot for many. But to Sharon, it felt like a prison. She wouldn't even think of stepping there if it wasn't for Irene.

The butler, Fred Jenning, saw her and hesitated. "Ms. Cress, what brings you here?""

"I need to speak with Edwin, Sharon said politely

Even though the Stanleys didn't think much of her, the servants there were always kind. "Mr. Stanley just made it clear you're not allowed in, Fred said with a helpless shake of his head

Sharon didn't attempt to force her way in but responded, "Then, could you relay a message to Mr. Stanley for me! If I call the police or alert the press, it will make a scene and won't look good for anyone. I doubt he would want the Stanley family's matters on the news."

Perhaps her words worked. Minutes later, Edwin appeared in his usual black attire, looking unapproachable with his stern face and dark eyes.

Sharon didn't want to waste any time and approached him quickly. "Where's Irene! Why would you...

"From now on, stop looking for Irene. She doesn't need a mother who's as indecent as you." Edwin interrupted before the could finish, his tone filled with even more disdain.

Indecent?" Sharon was utterly puzzled. "Wasn't everything clarified?"

"Get her out of here, If she tries to force her way in, call the police Edwin told Fred. He didn't want to engage in further conversation

He turned and walked inside. His heart was heavy with unease. "Sharon has been complaining about my negligence, making herself look nice. Yet behind the scenes, she's done such dagusting things. I know she won't change. My guilt over these past few days has been needless,' he thought.

Though reluctant, Fred hard to call security to get Sharon out.

Sharon was unwilling to be apart from her daughter and accept this label of "Indecent" thrown upon her, but she was no match for the bodyguards. She was thrown outside the closed gates, the doors concealing the world where Irene was.

Sharon was anxious, and her eyes reddened involuntarily when she realized trene could be scared inside the Stanley family's home. "Fred, do you know what happened" she asked
