SSL Wildcard Usage

Hi Everyone,
I'm kinda confused on how SSL wildcard really works. It's our first time using it. We have this primary domain **\*example.com** and we also have a subdomain **sub.example.com.** Since we don't have an SSL in our subdomain, I tried to connect it to our wildcard domain by redirecting it via cPanel. Instead, it shows a different URL and website that is supposedly not ours.
DNS Provider: Cloudflare
Subdomain: GoDaddy
I tried:
1. Changing our DNS (Cloudflare) into flexible encryption and it works (but unsafe)
2. Checked the file manager and finds nothing that directs us to the [**wrong-domain.com**](http://wrong-domain.com)
3. Used the forwarding feature in GoDaddy
Any comments or advice is appreciated :)

the timing matters more than people admit which explains why reactions are split That’s the key detail here.

Without overthinking it, the follow-through is what will decide this Interested to see the follow-up.

this feels like a half-step, not a full move which explains why reactions are split Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.

the wording alone shifts how people read this and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone Not convinced this is settled yet.
