Chapter 229 The Great Paper Chase
Kenneth felt his brain buzzing, his eyes bloodshot with fury.
Unable to unleash his anger on Lauren and his family, he directed all his rage toward Willow and David.
“It’s all your fault- Kenneth yelled as he punched David to the ground, then started kicking and beating Willow. “You wench, go to hell…”
Willow cried out in pain, utterly miserable. George, seeing his daughter being beaten, was furious and charged at Kenneth, grappling with him.
But Kenneth, strong and now incredibly energized by his distress, nearly pinned George to the ground and pummeled him.
Sharon, heartbroken by the sight, tried to intervene to help George, but Brendan kicked her away.
Kenneth was still his son, after all, and as a father, he couldn’t just watch his son be attacked.
The scene quickly spiraled out of control, turning into complete chaos.
Sharon cried out to David, “David, how can you just stand there looking at those papers? Get up and help George!”
At that moment, David’s mind was blank. He had been knocked to the ground by Kenneth, which allowed him to see the scattered documents.
His hands trembled uncontrollably as he held the documents.
Written in black and white, the documents revealed that Willow was not his and Sharon’s daughter, and that the son abroad was not his biological child either. Both children were Sharon and George’s.
What shocked him even more was that George was not Sharon’s brother, but her husband, and they even had a marriage certificate.
Suddenly, he remembered what Jeffrey had said outside the Brooker’s Villa. It wasn’t Alice who had cuckolded him; it was Sharon.
With red eyes and trembling voice, David stepped toward Sharon and demanded, “Sharon, give me an explanation!”
The unfolding events had far exceeded Sharon’s expectations. She had gone to the detention center that day, hoping that David would bring good news.
She thought that if David could persuade Felix to let Willow go, she would joyfully bring Willow back home.
Instead of a call from David, it was Josh, Felix’s associate, who brought Willow and Kenneth out of detention, and she had mistakenly thought David had convinced Felix.
The three of them had followed Josh to the Brooker’s Villa.
Only now did Sharon realize that everything had been meticulously planned by Felix, aiming to gather them all together and publicly expose the past.
Sharon’s heart pounded.
She knew that once it was confirmed that Willow and her son were not David’s children, her family of four would not meet a good end.
Sharon, a woman capable of handling big affairs, remained outwardly calm despite her inner turmoil, showing no signs of panic.
She took the documents from David with a natural demeanor, glanced through them briefly, and then suddenly burst out laughing before casually throwing the papers on the floor.

Finished
Sharon sighed, “David, don’t you see? This is all a setup by Lauren and the Brooker family–a banquet designed to tear us apart. Lauren despises our daughter for disrupting her life, so she cooked up these fake documents to drive a wedge between us. Don’t fall for it. If we turn on each other, that’s exactly what Lauren wants. Think about how I’ve felt about you all these years. If I didn’t love you, why would I still be single? I’m now the director of Hoverdale People First Hospital, and I’ve had my share of admirers, including young men in their twenties who want me to support them, yet I’ve never been tempted. Doesn’t that tell you how I truly feel?”
Sharon’s quick thinking and eloquence were unparalleled.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have won David over in just half a month all those years ago.
