Chapter 1026
Luna and Sharon''s expressions changed when they heard Timothy''s words. They didn''t want to go to jail.
Luna nced at Raymond instinctively and uttered, "My situation is different, though."
Sharon snorted. "You''re just an illegitimate daughter. What makes you so special?"
Jasmine quickly took Raymond''s arm and advised, "Dad, let''s go. We need to head to the hospital first. If there are any scars, the rumors will start spreading again."
Upon hearing this, Raymond remained silent. He understood that it was not appropriate to address the issue at that moment. With a determined stride, he left the private room.
Luna''s back was hurting so much. Moreover, she initially thought Raymond would stand up for her!
Luna fixed her fierce gaze on Sharon and dered, "I''ll remember what happened today, and I won''t let it go. Just wait and see."
Luna left right after that. She needed to apany Raymond to the hospital for treatment. This was a chance for her to act pitifully and gain sympathy, so she didn''t want to miss it. As for Sharon, that despicable old woman, there would be numerous opportunities to address herter.
After the departure of the three people, the private room became quiet. Mia nibbled on her snacks whilefortably seated on a chair. "I haven''t eaten anything all day, but I feel satisfied after watching the show."
It was worth it.
Timothy looked at her and asked, "How''s your hand? Show me."
Mia withdrew her hand and replied, "I''m perfectly fine. It was just a drop of water on my hand. No harm done."
After Mia finished speaking, she nced at Sharon, who appeared lost. Then she said, "The person who deserves your utmost concern at this moment is not me, but your mother."
Sharon appeared to have been struck by a powerful emotional blow, causing her to age considerably in a mere moment.
She gazed at Timothy sadly and said, "Tim, I may not be the most intelligent or outstanding mother, and I may not have the affection of your grandparents. But I''ve always cared for you with all my heart and soul, and I''ve never caused you any harm. I don''t understand why you are joining forces with Luna and that little rascal to humiliate me."
Sharon simply couldn''t ept this fact.
Mia was genuinely curious about how Timothy could readily ept an illegitimate child and keep it a secret from Sharon. No matter how she contemted the situation, she found it utterly imusible. It seemed inconceivable to her that any woman could ept her husband''s illegitimate child.
Timothy fell into a brief silence, his
gaze fixed upon Sharon before he finally spoke up. "From the very start, I had no choice but to ept this condition. Dad''s will made no mention of allocating 5% of the shares to Asher."
"If it''s not 5% of the shares, then what exactly is it?"
"The will left by Dad stipted that my half-brother and I should jointly take over thepany, sharing ownership equally. However, my so-called brother''s health was
concerning, and he might not livet

allocate some of thepany shares to his child, Asher He also agreed that Asher would not contest the ownership of thepany with me and my children. He made it clear that agreeing to his terms
would nullify our father''s will."
"I see." Sharon''s expression changed as a myriad of emotions overwhelmed her. She never expected that her long-dead husband would still find a way to y tricks on her.
Sharon was immediately disheartened and turned to Mia. "Do you know why I resented you so much for marrying Tim back then?"
