Loving Mom 151

Chapter 151

Carter’s voice was icy. “And what if I refuse to sign?”

Sharon didn’t flinch. “Then whether Kelly gets to fulfill her dream… becomes a question mark.”

A sharp glint flashed in Carter’s eyes-cold and razor-edged, bright enough to cut through flesh.

“Sharon, are you trying to get yourself killed?”

Her lashes lifted slightly, her gaze meeting his without hesitation.

“Oh? So when you threaten me using the people I care about, it’s just business. But when I use your precious Kelly against you, suddenly I’m signing my own death warrant? Carter, I never wanted to drag anyone else into this. But Kelly kept shoving herself in my face, over and over. If she’d stayed out of my way, I wouldn’t have touched her. If you’ve got a problem with me, take it up with me directly. But if you lay a finger on any of my friends…”

Sharon leaned in slightly, her lips parting as she spoke with chilling precision.

“I have nothing left to lose. Push me, and I won’t just ruin Kelly-I’ll make sure your entire family pays for it.”

Something dangerous flickered in her eyes, something that made Carter freeze for a split second.
