Chapter 33

Tilda’s grip on her phone tightened as excitement surged through her

Sensing her urgency, the man on the other end let out a sinister, low chuckle that sent shivers down her spine. “You’re dying to replace out? Come over if you really wanna know.” His voice was laced with desire that he didn’t bother to hide.

17)

Tilda’s face flushed with anger. “That’s impossible”

“Well, if you don’t wanna know, forget it. But The man’s voice trailed off. He deliberately paused, enjoying the torment.

Impatient and fuming. Tilda was about to hang up when his voice came through again “Take care of your throat, sweetheart. Don’t be losing that voice of yours

“What do you mean?” Tilda pressed, but the line went dead as the man hung up first

Standing in the hallway, Tilda was left with nothing but guesses, and her face darkened. However, she couldn’t make heads or tails of his words. ‘He always likes to say these kinds of ambiguous things. But I feel like he’s hinting at something this time; she thought.

She didn’t call him back. Given the lessons from four years ago, she was steering clear of any danger, intent on proving her wholehearted dedication to Edwin

Tomorrow was homecoming day, and Sharon was a bundle of nerves. She didn’t even dare call her dad to let him know.

During her four years of marriage, out of fear of upsetting the Stanley family, she hadn’t reached out to her father. He’d raised her all those years, and she’d given nothing in return,

Sharon went shopping to pick up some nice things, and Alanna had also asked her to take some nutritional supplements back home.

After packing up, they lay on recliners watching TV. The show playing was a variety show, the host delivered a dramatic monologue before excitedly introducing. “Next, please welcome tonight’s mystery guest.”“

As soft music played, the door at the back of the stage opened. The spotlight focused, and a figure emerged, dressed in a flowing chiffon dress, hair cascading down her shoulders, revealing striking features.

As soon as Alanna saw her face, she snored. “I can’t believe they let trash like her on my favorite reality show. I don’t want to watch it now.”

At the same time, Sharon recognized the woman as Tilda, and her eyes darkened.

Tilda’s pretentious presence drew applause, and the host shouted, “Oh! My queen!

“Oh, come on, please stop teasing me, Tilda replied with a coy smile, and the cameraman gave her an extreme close–up on purpose.

“If anyone like her can be called a queen, the standards must really be on the floor,” Alanna snapped, harboring no love for Tilda. Not wanting to affect Sharon’s mood, she sharply turned off the TV.

“Don’t worry about me; I’ve been immune to her for a long time,” Sharon said lightly, noticing Alanna’s concern.

Initially, Edwin was blind and sent to the remote s

By the time she saw Edwin again, Tilda was already by his side. Before she became famous, Tilela wasn’t as pretty as she was now, but falwin was genuinely into her, treating her like his precious treamire.

The memory that stood out the most to Sharon was when Tilda wanted sweet potatoes. They were just out of the oven, scalding hot, but Edwin, armingly oblivious to the beat, held then with his hands, blowing on them and feeding Tilda bite by bite.

Looking at Edwin’s reddened palms, Sharon could even feel the ating. And now, the memory only brought a bitter sting to her heart,

“Maylar she’s got something special about her; Sharon said. Now divorced from Edwin, she didn’t feel like guessing anymore.

Alanna snorted with disdain. “Special? Her acting is really stiff. If it wasn’t for Edwin pushing her career, she couldn’t even land a supporting role, let alone win the Best Actress award. The only thing she’s got going for her is that vojor of hers. Bus. Alanna glanced back at sharon. “Have you ever noticed! Your voice and Tilda’s, they sound alike”
