Chapter 1439

Author: Sienna Yates
Sharon gave a faint, ambiguous smile, saying nothing.

Once she and Thomas had left, the smiles on the McKinzie family members' faces vanished entirely.

Sebastian's son, Clark, let out a contemptuous snort.

"She's just a woman," he said, voice dripping with disdain, "of all things she could learn, she has to come meddling with men over power and influence. Does she even have the ability for it? Her mother, Shayla, once held power in the Kalen family—but what was the end result? She was kicked

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 2693

    Samantha watched the trending topic climb on her phone and turned to Victoria, beside herself with excitement."Victoria, look! It's already in the top five!"The more people praise them for being a perfect match and ship them, the more jealous and crazy Julliard will get. A creep like him probably won't be able to sit still for much longer, right?"The more Samantha thought about it, the more excited and pleased she became."Having Sharon end up in Julliard's bed would be letting her off a little easy. But when I think about her having to marry a creep like that someday, and maybe even getting beaten by him, it's at least some consolation."At this point, Samantha looked at Victoria."Victoria, you're so smart. These plans all fit together perfectly."We sent people to the night market to cause trouble for Thomas and Sharon. If Sharon believed what those thugs said, it would drive a wedge between them."And if she didn't believe them, it would still drive Julliard mad with jea

    When Thomas didn't go on, Sharon asked instinctively, "Otherwise what?"His voice was low, with a barely noticeable huskiness to it."Otherwise... I'll hide you away somewhere only I can find you, so you can only look at me and think about me. You won't be able to go anywhere or see anyone."He was holding her so tightly she could barely breathe. She was about to push him away when she felt his chin come to rest lightly on top of her head. His warm breath fell across her hair, carrying a strange, almost obsessive seriousness.Sharon was a little stunned, and for a moment, she couldn't react.Just then, Thomas's voice came again, "Sharon, I'm just kidding."Sharon tilted her head back to look at him.There was a smile on his face. The corners of his lips were curved, and he looked relaxed and casual, as if that line about hiding her away had truly been nothing more than an offhand joke.Seeing her looking at him, Thomas took her hand and laced their fingers together. "Come on. I

    After a long while, Julliard raised a hand and rubbed his brow, then seemed to remember something and pulled out his phone.There were a few messages on the screen from an unknown number, sent not long ago.[I'm the one who told you that Sharon and Thomas were at the night market tonight. I hesitated for a long time, not sure whether I should tell you.][But I think you have a right to know what's happening around her.][Thomas isn't as simple as you think. His enemies and his shady past will drag Sharon into it sooner or later.][You know better than anyone how soft-hearted and trusting Sharon is. She deserves someone better to protect her.]Julliard stared at the message, his thumb hovering over the screen for a long time before he finally switched it off.He closed his eyes briefly. When he opened them again, every trace of emotion had been wiped away, leaving only a deep chill....On the way back, Sharon and Thomas were both quiet.After some time, Thomas broke the silen

    Thomas walked over step by step, the menace around him so thick it was almost tangible."I'll say it one more time." His voice was cold, every word laced with ice. "Let go of her."Julliard didn't budge. Instead, he tightened his grip on Sharon's wrist."Thomas, are you going to throw a punch?" he said evenly. "Right in front of Sharon? So she can see for herself what kind of violent brute her boyfriend really is?"Julliard stepped forward. For the first time, his refined face showed obvious emotion, and his tone was even a little aggressive. "You bring her nothing but trouble.""Julliard." Sharon frowned. "Tonight was just an accident. It has nothing to do with Thomas.""An accident?" Julliard looked at her, pain in his eyes. "Sharon, today it might be an accident. What about tomorrow? The day after?"You don't know what kind of person he is or how dirty his past is."If you stay with him, you'll get hurt sooner or later. Come with me. I'll protect you...""Julliard!" Sharon

    The man craned his neck and shouted, as if afraid someone might not hear him, "Quit pretending. You've been hiding behind this woman so we wouldn't find you, haven't you?"Thomas, let me tell you something. I haven't settled the score with you yet for toying with my sister's feelings and knocking her up. It's you or me today!"The surrounding crowd seemed to sense something was wrong and gave them a wide berth.Before Sharon could react, the men were already closing in.Thomas said in a low voice, "Stay back. Don't move."The next second, he moved.Sharon had never seen Thomas like this.He moved so fast she could barely follow. His punches were vicious, each one landing precisely on his opponent's most vulnerable spot.Someone grabbed a beer bottle from nearby and swung it at him. He sidestepped, then seized the man's wrist with a backhand. The joint made a sound that set her teeth on edge.The bottle hit the ground, the sound of shattering glass mixing with the screams of th

    After wandering a while longer, Sharon's attention was caught by a ring toss stall.All kinds of little prizes were on display: stuffed animals, small ornaments, and mugs. At the very back sat a pair of exquisite bunny plushies that looked soft and incredibly cute.Sharon turned to Thomas. "Thomas, do you know how to play ring toss?"Thomas shook his head. "I've never played it before."Since childhood, he had only been trained in combat, shooting, and tracking. He'd truly never touched a kids' game like ring toss.Sharon said, "Why don't we give it a try? Those bunnies are so cute."As she spoke, she pointed at the pair of bunny plushies at the very back.The stall owner said with a smile, "You've got a good eye, young lady. That's our grand prize. Ten rings for twenty bucks. Want to give it a shot?"They had nothing better to do anyway, so Sharon decided to give it a go.She took out twenty dollars and got ten rings.She tossed a few first. They either went wide or just gra

    Casey said softly, "I was ready for an emergency, but in the end… nothing happened."It wasn't an unreasonable thought. The higher the tree, the more it catches the wind; the brighter the star, the more shadows it attracts.With so many predators lurking around Sharon, it would have been perfectly

    After lowering the binoculars, Julliard picked up his phone and issued his next order."Keep the smear campaign against Victoria running. Don't stop. Pay off some of the contestants. If Victoria dares to show her face again, make sure she gets taken care of."'A mere illegitimate daughter thinks s

    Simon's heart eased slightly when he saw that Sharon hadn't refused or tried to evade responsibility at such a critical moment. With Carter's condition uncertain, he had countless matters waiting for him. He couldn't spare much time persuading Sharon. He was about to hang up when her voice stopped
