The Young and the Restless: Sharon covers her tracks smartly

Sharon, played by Sharon Case, did a good job at covering her tracks and buying time. To start with she did not tell her family which motel she was in and what she planned to do. After Heather's death, she removed all traces of the incident and their presence in Daniel's house. She also wrapped and threw away the body in water.

As The Young and the Restless viewers saw in the episode of September 30, 2024, Sharon brought Heather's phone in her bag. She pretended to have set a new reminder for her medicines when her family heard Heather's phone ringing. She even popped a pill to make her claim more authentic.

Finally, she sent a message from Heather's phone to Daniel making him think Heather was alive and skipping town. Moreover, she has presumably switched off the phone's tracker. However, as of the end of September 2024, Sharon had Heather's phone on her. If official investigations bring detectives to check her things, this would be a clear giveaway.
