“Sharon is meticulous and calculating. No wonder Victoria suffered such a crushing defeat at her hands.”

Lex continued, “I think you’ve realized by now that the rumors about Victoria online can’t be silenced. It’s not just Victoria being condemned; the entire Kalen family’s reputation is in tatters.”

Jamie knew little about Sharon. What he did know came mostly from Johanna.
