Chapter 1389

작가: Sienna Yates
Situations like this weren't entirely new. In the past, they had often sat together in a room, chatting, and Jamie had never done anything to her.

But now…

Victoria felt her chest tighten. The chances of Jamie doing something were far from low.

The Walton family was in a precarious position, and Jamie's status was unstable. If the siblings decided to go all in, dragging her into their schemes to leverage the Kalen family's support and turn the tide…

She would be in serious danger.

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 2169

    Although Sharon knew the password to Thomas's villa, she couldn't simply barge in now that he was home.The two of them could only ring the doorbell.After nearly half an hour, the villa door finally opened.Thomas stood at the entrance in casual clothes. His hair was still slightly damp, clearly just out of the shower.Seeing Sharon and Jamie, he raised a brow."Sharon, I don't think we're that close. Bringing people to my house so many times—don't you think that's inappropriate?"Not that close…For a moment, Sharon thought of Marina again, and a faint tightness rose in her chest.But now was not the time for sentimentality. She quickly composed herself."Thomas, we've lost a cat. The surveillance shows you were the one who took it. That's why we came uninvited—to ask whether you've brought the tabby cat back?"Thomas stood at the doorway without any intention of letting them in."A tabby cat did scratch me," he said lazily.Sharon's gaze shifted—and sure enough, there we

    After hearing this, Sharon joined in the search for Little Tabby.Jamie, meanwhile, pulled up the café's surveillance footage to determine when it had slipped out. After reviewing it, he discovered that Little Tabby had escaped more than ten minutes earlier. He immediately switched to the exterior cameras.The tabby had chased a butterfly to a street corner and then vanished completely from view.Jamie's expression darkened. He immediately called his assistant and instructed him to pull footage from surrounding streets.A few minutes later, he stared at the screen, his face turning colder by the second. A familiar figure appeared—carrying the tabby by the scruff of its neck and getting into a car. Then both disappeared from the camera's view.The tabby had been taken by Thomas.At the sight, Jamie's entire expression soured.Back then, Thomas had nearly strangled the little cat to death.And now that it had literally walked right into his hands—what would he do to it?Sharon h

    Marina's voice seemed to drift through layers of dense fog before reaching Sharon's ears."Thomas, I packed some pastries for you. When you're hungry, you can eat them so your stomach won't act up again."I also packed more floral tea—specially blended for your stomach. And some warming tea too… if you get caught in the rain, just drink a cup and it'll drive out the cold."Last time you were so sick and didn't even tell me. I only found out from Liam and Doug—you actually had a fever for three days and ended up in the hospital."It seemed she wanted to give Thomas everything she considered the best in the world.Just then, Jamie suddenly stood up."It's getting late. We should head back."Only then did Marina shift her attention away from Thomas. She didn't seem particularly fond of Jamie."Alright. Feel free to leave first."She then looked at Sharon. "Sharon, you can stay a little longer if you'd like."Sharon lowered her lashes, concealing the thoughts in her eyes."It's

    Marina looked at Jamie with a hint of surprise. "You seem to know quite a lot about this… Don't tell me you used to be a hacker too?""No," Jamie replied flatly. "But I know a little about the field."His gaze settled on her. "Marina, could you be Q?"Marina's eyes widened. "How do you know?! Did you investigate me?"Jamie's tone remained indifferent. "You spend generously at my café every day. It would be strange if I didn't look into you."Marina frowned. "Just because I go there every day, you investigated me? Don't you think that's a pretty unreasonable excuse?"Jamie glanced at Thomas, who had been silent all this time. "You can ask your friend here whether my caution is reasonable or not."At that, Marina really did turn to Thomas."Thomas, what does he mean?"Thomas leaned back casually, speaking in a light tone. "Jamie is the head of the Walton family. It's only natural he wouldn't feel at ease about a stranger who suddenly appears with unclear intentions."Marina loo

    There was no deliberate avoidance or coldness—just the natural distance of people who knew of each other, but were not truly familiar. A simple acquaintance, nothing more.Seeing that Thomas had finished a piece of dessert, Marina asked a little nervously, yet with clear anticipation, "Thomas, how is it? Is it good?"Thomas replied, "Mm. Very good."At his answer, a bright smile bloomed on Marina's face, a faint blush coloring her cheeks as well. It was the kind of expression only seen when someone received praise from the person they liked.Seeing this, Sharon suddenly felt a faint sense of suffocation. She lowered her eyes slightly and took a sip of tea to conceal it.Jamie's low, husky voice came from beside her. "Marina and Thomas, you guys seem quite close."Marina turned toward him. "Mm yeah, we're friends."Jamie's tone carried something unreadable. "Thomas certainly has quite a few female friends."Marina looked surprised. "Does he? As far as I know, besides Carmen, Tho

    The shop assistant girl was clearly excited—so excited that she repeated "very handsome" three times in a row.It was obvious she had never seen a man that good-looking before.Marina's eyes lit up.She didn't even spare a glance for Sharon or Jamie as she quickly walked into the flower shop and pushed open the door to the lounge."Thomas, I invited you here so many times before, and you're finally here today!"Inside the room, a young and strikingly handsome man sat on the sofa, flipping through a floral catalog, quietly reading the descriptions of different flowers.At the sound of Marina's voice, he looked up and smiled faintly."I was handling some business nearby. I remembered you opened a flower shop here, so I came to take a look."He closed the catalog in his hands and asked, "Have you been going to that café you mentioned last time?"Marina smiled. "Yes. The cats there are adorable. I go every day to play with them for a while. My shop is close to that café. Do you wa

    Lex had wasted far too much time on Thomas, and in doing so, handed Sharon the perfect opening.The sector Thomas had been unable to pry loose was the very one Sharon had managed to break into.What Wendy found truly unbelievable was that, after suffering such a major loss, Lex still thought a few

    Wendy badly wanted to stay the night and continue exploring the next day. But seeing how low Sharon's spirits were, she knew this hurdle wouldn't be easy to cross. Sharon needed time—space to breathe and process.She said softly, "Sharon, let's go home."Sharon nodded. "Okay."The rain outside ha

    After all, Jamie had handed over some of his shares in the Walton Group to Victoria without a second thought, without even blinking. Clearly, power and influence weren't what mattered most to him—not at the very top of his priorities, at least.Seeing her cautious, guarded expression, Jamie's eyes

    Sharon caught the subtle implication in Jamie's words.This exhibition was held for someone specific. That explained why the crowd was so sparse.She knew Jamie had a keen interest in paintings. At first, she had wondered why he was here, but then it made sense—an exhibition with so many masterpie
