Dumping My Billionaire Ex

"What's there to regret?" Sharon replied with indifference, masking the bitterness that seemed to sweep through her.

Even though she was divorced from Edwin, she didn't want to completely burn bridges. Despite enduring so much humiliation for four years within the Stanley family, she had no intention of shaming them in such a manner.

If it weren't for Edwin and the others of the Stanley family cornering her, leaving her no room to breathe, she would have preferred to handle Irene's custody more mildly.

"Well, as long as you have no regrets, whatever happens, we'll face it together, Alanna promised, patting her chest. She could see the weight in Sharon's thoughtful eyes. She felt a pang of sympathy, but she knew some pains just couldn't be soothed.

Sharon managed to dispel the sadness in her eyes and sincerely said to Alanna, "Thanks."

"What for? We're practically family. Alanna dismissed her thanks with puzzlement, not liking the formality.

Sharon leaned over and gave her a hug. Alanna was her childhood friend who had been with her through thick and thin. If it weren't for her, these times would have been even harder-

"Enough. I won't be able to drive if you keep hugging me like this, Alanna said, her tone feigning annoyance but her hand gently patting Sharon's shoulder in silent comfort.

Feeling the comfort, Sharon allowed herself to momentarily drop the façade of strength and let her emotions flood her, permeating every inch of

her skin.

But the sadness was short-lived. Minutes later, Sharon lifted her face with a cheerful smile.

Seeing Sharon regaining her composure, Alanna said again. "Sharon, you know, stirring this up with the Stanley family definitely ticked them off. Edwin will probably target Bisney Entertainment. Her eyes grow troubled. "We might not be able to stand up to him."

Despite any grudge against Edwin, Alanna had to acknowledge his capabilities. He was skillful and ruthless, second to none.

"Bisney Entertainment isn't exactly weak, but if someone's determined to play dirty, we won't be able to stand it. Working in media, Alanna knew too well how it worked. "These days, these in our business struggle with even the smallest schemes; Edwin will be far more cutting

"I know." Sharon nodded, her beautiful face showing no signs of panic or worry. She'd considered all the possibilites before acting, "Even without Bisney Entertainment, Irene and I can live without worries. She'd saved a good deal of money and invested in prime real estate in major cities. Even if housing prices dropped, those in the center of major cities remained unaffected.

Shuron then looked at Alanna. "As for you all, capable as you are now, plenty of companies would fight to have you if your left Bisney Entertainment,"

She paused briefly before adding, "But I still suggest you, Rocky, and Randall set out on your own. With your current fame, working for someone clse is a loss."

"Jeez, Sharon, don't tell me you've already got our startup funds ready" Alanna blurred out.

Sharon's hand paused inside her bag, right around a card.

Alanna guessed right. To completely free Irene from the Stanley family, Sharon had prepared for everything. But she couldn't leave those who stood by her through it all high and dry.

However, Alanna wasn't pleased. "Do you even consider me a friend? It's heartless to leave at a time like this, isn't it I won't stop Randall if he wants to leave, but Rocky and I will definitely stand by you to the end."

Alanna was hot-tempered and straightforward, not one to give up easily. She didn't hold Randall back because he wasn't just a live streamer but also a figure skater. His reputation was too important to risk any tamish

"Sharon, you take a break. I'll keep watch over Bisney Entertainment these days. Alanna was ready for a fight, even if they lost to Edwin, they would make sure he suffered, too

en she once loved

And she wanted Sharon away for another reason-she didn't want Sharon to witness her cherished business destroyed by the man

to the core. That was too cruel to bear.

Understanding Alanna's intent, Sharon didn't refuse and nodded, and she thought in was a good opportunity to visit her father.

During her four years of marriage, her father had stayed away, knowing the Stanley family disliked him.

"Trene is already three, and she hasn't seen him yet. Besides, I should inform him about the divorce. Thinking this, Sharon promptly booked fights Chapter 1

back home for herself and Irene.

Just after booking the tickets, Sharon's phone, which she seldom used, rang. Only a few close individuals knew this numberof her Confused, Sharon took out the phone, not recognizing the incoming call number. She couldn't help but wonder who it might be from. After a moment's hesitation, she answered.

A familiar male voice came through from the other end. 'Is this Foxy Damon: I'm Ray Gildon, the head of the Gildon Group. Sharon was momentarily taken aback, puzzled about how Bay had obtained her number.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She had opened this line for some essential contacts during her streaming days under the alias Foxy Damon. However, given her low profile, she rarely interacted with advertisers, leaving her contact largely unknown. How did Ray and this number? she wondered.

On the other end, when Ray's call connected, his heart was filled with joy. After all, the person who gave him the number mentioned that Foxy Damon hadn't used it in four years and was worried she might have abandoned it

Managing her curiosity, Sharon asked, "Yeah, how can I assist you?"

"Here's the thing... Ray quickly explained his purpose

Sharon's brows gradually knitted together as she listened. Ray had heard about her connections with Andrew, the business tycoon from Satisetion and wanted her to help them secure a deal. However, this deal was a joint project between Ray and Edwin

I'm sorry, but I must decline, Sharon replied without hesitation

Kay was taken aback. "Please, we would be immensely grateful if you could do us this favor. As for the compensation, it's entirely up to you." He mistakenly thought it was a matter of payment that made Sharqn hesitant.

Sharon simply smiled slightly. "It's not about the money, Mr. Gildon. If there's anything else you need help with in the future, I might be willing to consider it. But not this," she said and politely ended the call. Hay stared dumbfounded at the disconnected call, unable to grasp the situation. Toxy Damon refused this but is willing to help with something else? Was she just being polite, or did she mean it? It can't be true. We've never even met; she has no reason to be this kind to me," he thought.

Having overheard the conversation while driving. Alanna looked disapproving and said, "Sharon, are you serious? You've divorced Edwin; why bother with his friends?"

Sharon pursed her lips slightly. I can ignore the other, but not Ray He's helped me. She then held up her fingers. "Even twice."

The first time was when she was in the hospital giving birth and nearly bled out while frene was also hanging by a thread. The other time...
