Chapter 276
As the recording ended, Shawn put away his phone and looked at Sharon''s pale face. Then he held
her in his arms and said softly, "When I found out the reason he wanted to marry you and tried
negotiating with him. I recorded it all. At that time, he said that he would consider divorcing you.
Sharon, every word I said was true. I''m not lying."
When Sharon heard all that, her whole body was stiff. Her hands and feet were ice cold.
Now, her mind was in a total mess. All kinds of voices were buzzing through her mind, and Shawn''s
words hit her like a hammer.
All of a sudden, she remembered Stanley''s abnormality for the past few days. First, he ordered her
to stay at home, and she was not allowed to pick up Shawn''s call. He even prohibited her from
meeting Shawn.
Sharon thought that Stanley was afraid that Shawn might hurt her and the baby in her belly, but it
turned out that... This was the actual reason?
So he did not allow her to meet Shawn because he was afraid that Shawn would tell her these
things?
No, that was impossible. Stanley would not do that!
Still, there was a sliver of hope in Sharon''s heart, as she did not believe that Stanley married her
because he wanted her father''s organs.
Then, she pushed Shawn away. As she came out of his arms, she raised her head to look at him
while shaking her head. "It''s fake. What you just said were all lies. I don''t believe you..."
Shawn could not believe that even at this point, she still had faith in Stanley. With that, his gaze
became serious. "How could the recording be faked? Can''t you hear Stanley''s voice? It''s a fact that
your father is missing. Sharon, why are you still deceiving yourself?"
As Shawn''s emotions were welling up, he roared out thest sentence, which caused Sharon''s
body to tremble. Atst, Sharon''s tears rolled down, and thest shred of hope in her heart
crumbled.
Everything went ck in front of her eyes, and her body became weak. In the end, she could not
hold on any longer and slowly crouch down as she leaned against the wall.
On the other side, Stanley had just rushed to the hospital, but he was stopped. Several trained
bodyguards blocked his way. "Mister Stanley, Mr. Jones had ordered that no one could enter!"
An hour ago, Stanley received a call from the hospital, and the doctor informed him in fear,
"Mr...Stanley, I''m calling you from the bathroom right now. Your mother was transferred out from the
hospital, and the upper management ordered that no one leak the news..."
When Stanley received the call, he was in the middle of a meeting. So after getting the news, he
immediately drove to the hospital. As expected, the ward was empty.
In a swift, he found the director of the hospital and pressed a gun against his head. Only then did
the director confess, "Mr...Jones, your father was the one who transferred your mother. He came in
person, so I was scared to disobey him..."
When Stanley was in the car, he wondered why did Isai take his mother away? What did he want?
Also, If he did something bad to his mother, he would not spare him!
"Get lost!" Stanley''s face seemed to be covered in ayer of frost as he coldly looked at the
bodyguards. "If you don''t wish to die, then get out of my way!"
The bodyguards were unbothered as they stood still and said, "Mister Stanley, we''re under special
orders. Please don''t make it difficult for us..."
With that, a hint of ruthlessness shed across Stanley''s eyes. Just as he was about to fly into a
rage, a dignified voice came from a distance, "Let him in!"
Only then the bodyguards made way for him. Stanley walked over with a sullen expression. "Where
is she?"
Isai nced at him. "Who are you looking for?"
"Quit the nonsense! Where is my mom?" Stanley forcefully pulled his tie, and his brows were filled
with impatience. "She better be fine. If there''s even a hint of trouble, I''ll send you to hell personally!"
With displeasure, Isai''s expression sunk. "Is this the way a son should treat his father?"
"Heh." Stanley sneered. "If it weren''t for that bit of bloodline, I would''ve done something to you a
long time ago. Isai Jones, if you did something to my mother today, I swear, I''ll never let you off the
hook!"
In reply, Isaiughed, "Do you think that I transferred your mother out to do something bad to her?"
Stanley frowned in confusion.
"I''m saving her. Your mother is having an operation right now. She has been in there for more than
an hour."
After Isai finished speaking, Stanley only felt a sense of panic in his heart. Suddenly, his pupils
contracted, and his body tensed up, "You... What do you mean?"
Stanley knew everything about his mother''s condition. Therefore, without matching organs, the
surgery could not be carried out...
Looking at the operating room not far away, Stanley thought of something, and his face turned pale.
With shaking hands, he reached out to grab his phone.
"There is no need to verify it. I went to the hospital and asked them to cooperate by getting Sharon''s
father out of there. So now the doctor is operating on your mother."
With a "boom", Stanley''s mind exploded, and his tall body swayed. "What... What did you say?"
In a calm demeanor, Isai continued, "He''s just a vegetable, and maybe that''s how he''ll be for his
whole life. So, it should be his honor to save your mother''s life. After all, wasn''t this your purpose of
approaching the Cruz family at first?"
"Shut up!" Stanley raised his head, and his eyes were red. Then, he turned around and was about
to rush into the operating room. With a frown, Isai signaled at the bodyguards, and they immediately
understood. Swiftly, they rushed forward to stop him.
In one move, Stanley got out the gun on his waist, "Get out of my way!"
Since the bodyguards had received professional training, they did not budge.
Slowly, Isai walked forward. "Are you trying to stop the operation? It''s toote now. The doctor had
already cut open his chest and exchanged his organs with your mother''s! It won''t help the situation
if you barge in now. Not only you won''t be able to save him, but you may even kill your mother!"
With all hope gone, Stanley turned to the d*mn man in front of him, and the veins on his forehead
burst. He stared at him with a blood-thirsty and terrifying gaze. "Isai Jones! I swear to god that after
the surgery is over, I will definitely kill you to avenge Sharon''s father!"
Hearing that, Isai burst intoughter as if he was not afraid of his threat at all. "Well, if you have the
ability, you can try. I will y with you at any time. But now, get out of my way, and sit by the side.
Don''t interfere with the doctor''s operation on your mother."
By then, Stanley''s entire body was surrounded by a wave of powerlessness, and his clenched fists
had turned white.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded in the distance. They were messy and urgent.
When Stanley heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw Sharon running over. His heart trembled,
and his lips quivered. Quickly, he walked over and held Sharon into his arms. "Sharon, why are you
here?"
Sharon broke free from his embrace and clutched both of his hands tightly. Both her eyes were red.
Then, she asked, "Stanley, where''s my father?"
Stanley''s Adam''s apple moved. "Sharon..."
"Stanley, I''m asking you, where is my father!" Sharon roared. The blood in her eyes was frightening!
Still, Stanley pursed his lips tightly and said, "Sharon, please go back with me first!"
As he spoke, he extended his hand and took hers, but Sharon flung his hand away and looked at
him coldly. "Stanley, this is thest time I''m asking you. Where is my father?"
The way she asked the question was calm and cold, and her voice was weak. However, Stanley felt
as if he was on a cliff, and he began to panic. If he answered her question, he would definitely lose
her.

"Sharon, your father is fine. I''ve asked Anthony to transfer him to another hospital. Come with me,
and I will take you to see him, okay?"
In a moment of desperation, Stanley could only lie to her.
Hearing that, Sharon looked at him in confusion. "My father''s fine?"
"Yes. He''s fine. He''s doing fine in the other hospital. Good girl, pleasee with me first, okay?"
Carefully, Stanley took her hand. This time, Sharon did not fling him away, and she followed him.
Just as they were about to leave, Shawn strode over and stopped Sharon. "Sharon, don''t listen to
him. He''s lying to you..."
"Bang!" A muffled sound was heard. Stanley''s fist smashed towards Shawn''s face like a fierce wind.
As a result, Shawn''s nose was severely hit. He staggered a few steps back. When he touched his
nose, there was blood all over.
With that, he only smiled. "What''s wrong? Are you mad? Even if you take Sharon away for now,
what are you going to do next? You can deceive her for the moment, but can you deceive her for a
lifetime?"
A storm gathered in Stanley''s eyes. Stanley never thought that Shawn would be so ruthless that he
directly brought Sharon here regardless of her mood swing.
Raising his hand, Shawn pointed to the operating room not far away. Word by word, he said, "Who''s
in there? Is your mom in there as well as Sharon''s father?"
Hence, Sharon''s body trembled as she raised her head to look at Stanley. When Stanley looked at
her pale and bloodless face, he wanted to deny it, but his throat seemed to be glued together, and
he was unable to make a single sound.
"Stanley, where exactly is my father?" Sharon red at him and asked.
Stanley moved his lips. "Sharon, please go back with me, and I will exin everything to you..."
Again, he reached out to pull her.
"Don''t touch me!" Sharon shouted. With her emotions on the brink of a mental breakdown, she
strode towards the operating room. Seeing that, Isai frowned and was about to signal his
bodyguards. Immediately, Stanley went over and held Sharon tightly in his arms. "Sharon, don''t go
in!"
Now, his actions had undoubtedly acknowledged that Sharon''s father was inside. Therefore,
Sharon''s emotions broke free, and she struggled like a madman. "Let me go! Stanley, let me go! I
want to see my father!"
"Don''t act like this, Sharon... " Stanley''s heart was almost bleeding, and his eyes were red and hot.
With all his strength, he tightly held Sharon, who was struggling to break away from him. "Calm
down, Sharon!"
Calm down?
Those two words pierced through Sharon''s heart, currently, her father''s organs were being gouged
out. So, how could she, as his daughter, calm down?
"Stanley, let go of me!" Sharon yelled.
However, Stanley forcefully held her in his arms. How could he let her go? She was already so
agitated. If she went in to see her father... She would go crazy! Therefore, he definitely could not let
her in!
"Stanley, I''m begging you to let go, please? I want to see my father. I want to see him for thest
time. Just let me take a look at him, please?" Sharon began to cry, and her tears fell onto Stanley''s
chest. Her tears were burning him to the point of suffocation. With that, he held her tightly and said
in a hoarse voice. "I promise, I will avenge your father. Sharon, don''t do this. It''s toote to go in
now..."
Again, his words were like a dose of strong medicine. Sharon, who was struggling, suddenly
stopped.
It''s... toote?
Sharon opened her eyes, and it seemed to be covered with ayer of mist. Slowly her gaze
revealed a sense of despair and monstrous hatred. Subsequently, she abruptly pushed Stanley
aside and pulled out the gun from his waist, aiming it straight at him.
Stanley''s body trembled. "Sharon..."
Despite Stanley calling her name, Sharon looked at him indifferently. "Why did you marry me?"
"Sharon..."
"Say it! Why did you marry me?" Sharon held the gun in both her hands and her eyes were
shockingly red. "Was it because my dad''s organs could save your mother''s life?"
At this point, Stanley''s hands were tightly clenched into fists. He looked into her mad and hateful
eyes. After a long while, he said in a trembling voice, "...Yes."
Upon hearing Stanley''s answer, Sharon only felt her body sway. However, at the same time, she
laughed out loud, "Did you arrange for this operation?"
"It was already toote when I rushed over. Sharon, listen to me. I admit that I married you with a
purpose, but that was in the past, and now it has changed. Since I fell in love with you, I have no
intention of sacrificing your father! Give me the gun, and I promise you that I will give your father an
exnation. Believe me, please?"
As Stanley spoke, he rushed forward to grab the gun in her hand. Yet, Sharon shook her head and
backed away while she shouted, "Don''te any closer!"
Then, she turned the gun and pointed it at Isai, who had been standing in the corner. "You were the
one who took my father out of the hospital, am I right?"
At the moment when she aimed her gun at Isai, two bodyguards took action at the same time. One
blocked in front of Isai while the other pulled out the gun at his waist. Next, he pressed it against
Sharon''s head as he warned her, "Put down your... Ah!"
Before the bodyguard could finish his sentence, Stanley violently kicked him, which caused him to
fall heavily to the side. Following that, Stanley''s voice was as cold and hard as the voice from hell,
"Who gave you the f*cking right to point at her with a gun? F*ck off!"
After that, there was a hint of fear in the bodyguard''s eyes. With that, he hesitated and did not dare
to move.
Sharon''s gaze fixed on Isai. "Say it! Did you kill my father?"
Slowly, a frown rose between Isai brows, and his face showed anger. How dare this woman pointed
a gun at him! What a presumptuous woman!
"You do know the status that the Jones holds, right? Didn''t you ever think about the reason you
were able to marry into our family? Without my permission, it would be impossible for you to be Mrs.
Jones, and the price for all of this was the contribution of your father''s organs. Also, if your father
continues to be in that condition, it would be better for him to die with meaning, and his death will be
an exchange for your future wealth and glory. So, if you continue to cause trouble, the situation will
be difficult to handle. By then, I''m afraid that you won''t be able to keep your status in the Jones
family!"
As Isai finished his words, Sharon''s mind kept shing back and forth about what he said. "If your
father continues to be in that condition, it would be better for him to die with meaning..."
It turned out that in the heart of such people, her father''s life was merely like an ant!
"Ha- ha..." Sharon suddenly began tough. Her smile was filled with grief and despair. "Since that''s
the case, you can apany my father to death as well."
Isai''s face changed when he heard that. Thanks to his bodyguard''s agile movement, Isai was
thrown directly to the ground.
At the same time, there was a loud bang.
A gunshot rang out.
Furious, Isai issued a death order, "Take her away!"
Under Isai''s orders, several bodyguards were about to take action when Stanley''s gaze swept over
them like a sharp de as he threatened, "Let me see who the f*ck dares to touch her!"
As furious as ever, Isai ordered again. "Do it now!"
Simultaneously, the bodyguards took out their guns. With one hand, Stanley protected Sharon as he
snatched her gun with another hand. However, Sharon seemed to be frightened, and her teeth were
chattering. So the gun was held firmly in her hands, and Stanley was unable to take it from her.
In the meantime, the bodyguards prepared to snatch Sharon away, but Stanley was guarding her as
he retreated.
"Mr. Jones, if you want to live, tell your men to stay still." Shawn, who had been quiet, suddenly said
coldly behind Isai.
As Isai was being held at gunpoint, his face was extremely sullen. "Shawn, what are you doing?"
"Nothing. I just want to take Sharon away from here." Shawn had a faint smile on his face. "Isai
Jones, I would advise you to stop moving now, as my shooting skills are not the best. So, if my gun
refuses to listen to my orders, then don''t me me when something happens."
With a sneer, Isai said, "Are you threatening me?"
"If the threat is useful, then yes, I''m threatening you, old man." Shawn put the gun against the back
of Isai''s head. "Let your dogs back down. Now!"
Although Isai was unwilling to do so, he waved his hand, and the bodyguards immediately made
way for him.
Shawn looked at Stanley and said, "Take her away!"
Suddenly, Sharon came back to her senses. With that, her hands broke free, and the gun fell to the
ground. Swiftly, she turned around and ran towards the operating room. Stanley''s eyes were sharp,
and his hands were nimble. Ruthlessly, he gave a heavy sh behind her neck. Sharon''s vision
went ck, and she passed out in his arms.
Immediately, Stanley lifted her up and strode away.
