bSharon /bshook her head. “She bdidn’t /bgo to find a job there.”

Joanathan asked again. Then what’s she doing over there?”

“She bhas /ba studio there. From what I bsaw/b, it’s pretty big. Probably makes a lot of money

Jonathan’s eyes widened..What?”

The atmosphere in the hospital room froze.

Jonathan stared at her in disbelief. “Are you sure you didn’t get it wrong?”

Ste? Owning ba /bstudio? With what money? And even if she somehow scraped it together, bwhat /bdid she even knote? What could she possibly

FWAY

Sharon could see the doubt on his face band /bsaid, “I didn’t believe it either at first, but it’s definitely bher/bb, /bI even heard the employees calling bher /b“boss”

Jonathan was silent.

The room fell quiet again. He kept staring at Sharon, clearly still unconvinced. “You really didn’t mistake her for someone else?”

“No way,” she replied tly. “My brother took me there today to apologize to her. bWe /bwere face–to–face. How could I possibly get it wrongb?/b”

Seeing bthat /bhe refused to believe her, Sharon gave up on keeping it vague. After all, it was not like bthe /bmeeting bhad /bbeen subtle. bAnyone /bwith eyes bwould /bbhave /brealized who they were dealing with.

Jonathan frowned. “bApologize/b? Apologize for what?”

Sharon shrugged her shoulders, “For what happenedst night. Ugh, it’s ba /blong story.”

bShe /bdid bnot /bbwant /bto say another word about it. Just thinking about Ste’s attitude toward her made her grit her teeth. That woman was just too smug.

bJonathan’s /bexpression darkened. “No wonder she hasn’t given in, bno /bmatter how we pressured her. So it turns out she has money?”

Sharon nodded. “Exactly. So money won’t get her on her knees anymore.”

bJust /bthe irony of it all made her furious.

They bhad /bgone out of their way to cut off Ste’s ie and destroy her career prospects, and it turns out she did not need their help at all.

Jonathan let out a coldugh. “So money’s not enough? Fine. We’ll see.

By the time Susan returned, bSharon /bbhad /balready left.

Seeing she was gone, Susan muttered, “You know exactly how bSharon /bfeels about you. That girl outside, bcut /bit off. Send her

Jonathan frowned but nodded. “Got it.”

Susan continued, “If it weren’t for what happened to Lilian, we’d already be arranging things between you and bSharon/b…

Talking about bLilian’s /bbhealth/b, Susan’s face twisted in sorrow, “Ste is just too much.”

This time, we had to teach her a real lesson. She needed to understand that in Rivermount, she was only surviving because we let her,

Jonathan said btly/b. “Freezing her card won’t work. She’s bgot /ba studio. I bjust /blooked it up. She made over 980,000 dorsst

year.

What?” Susan bfroze/b, shocked.

The number hit her like a p.

980,000 dors? Earned by Ste? That’s impossible!

Jonathan nodded. “Sharon bsaw /bit herself. She went to Ste’s studio in Oriental Grand Tower.”

The room went dead silent.

Susan’s pupils constricted as disbelief bloomed across her face. “You’re serious?”

Jonathan answered tly. “Dead serious. Over 980,000 dors. Last year alone.”

Susan almost forgot to breathe.

980,000 dors. That wasn’t a small number. How in the world had Ste pulled that off?

“No wonder all our threats and pressure didn’t work on her. So she’s Susan could not even finish the sentence. Her mind kept circling back on bhow /bSte had done it.

“That studio, she said through gritted teeth, “you can’t let her keep running it.”

She was beyond furious. Just the thought that Ste had made that much money behind their backs made her blood boil. “She made all that money and still has the nerve bto /bpare herself to Lilian, constantly nitpicking andpeting. If that’s the case, it’s better she shuts the whole thing down!”

Jonathan nodded. “Don’t worry. It’s already taken care of.

He had already sent word to every majorpany in Rivermountb. /bNo bone /bbwas /bto work with Ste.

Let’s see how long thested after being cklisted. She wasn’t that capable anyway. Probably just got lucky once.

Thinking that, Jonathan felt certain it would not be long before Ste came crawling back to the Reed family.

Susan was still fuming, “Where did she even learn those skill

Suddenly, it all felt like a joke, like they had been the fools this whole time.

They had gone mad trying to cut off her finances and career paths, and meanwhile, she had quietly raked in 980,000 dors.

On the hospital bed, Lilian, eyes bclosed /bthis entire time, had been awake for a while now. She had heard everything-
