Chapter 1442

Penulis: Sienna Yates
Sharon looked at Thomas. "You?"

He nodded. "I have extensive real-world combat experience. I can teach you practical techniques—things you can actually use—and get you to proficiency in the shortest time possible."

When she had first considered hiring a combat instructor, Sharon had thought of Thomas. But she hesitated. To him, it might feel like overkill.

Back then, she had just returned to the Kalen family; they weren't close yet. And Thomas was a man. Learning combat often required physical contact. Having a man teach her—especially someone she barely knew—felt… complicated.

Even now, after trusting him completely, knowing he would never overstep, she still hesitated.

Thomas seemed oblivious to her inner struggle. He stepped closer.

"I reviewed what your last instructor taught you," he said. "It's not bad, but it relies heavily on a strong foundation. It'll take at least a year of physical training. That's not realistic for you. Sharon, try using what you've learned on me."

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 1448

    "I'm Tina's boyfriend! who are you?""No, I'm Tina's boyfriend! We've been together for three months!""That's nonsense. Tina said she broke up with you ages ago.""Tina didn't break up with me! We were together just a couple of days ago!""A couple of days ago? Tina spent the night at my place just a few days ago!""Spent the night?! Impossible! I was with Tina yesterday. She told me it was her first time!"Five or six young, handsome men, all realizing that the others were here for Tina—and that they were all claiming to be her boyfriend—immediately erupted into argument.These were Tina's recent boyfriends. She never dated just one at a time; there were always at least two or three simultaneously. Tina had gotten into trouble before, but she was charming, cunning, and could play the innocent act convincingly. She changed boyfriends fast enough that she had never caused such a catastrophic scene—until now.Once the men pieced together the situation, their gazes turned sharp

    Lex's lips curved into a meaningful smile. "If she isn't a Kalen heiress, do you think she'll have to return everything she's gained?"Cole froze. "Uncle Lex… are you saying you mean to—?"A sharp gleam flashed in Lex's eyes. "Her grandmother Julia's birthday celebration is coming up. That's our best chance. By then, all we have to do is watch."…After Tina was discharged, her determination hadn't waned. She tried approaching Thomas twice more—and each time, she ended up injured even worse than before.Every time she got close to him, some accident seemed to strike.At first, she blamed the indoor setting and moved their next attempt to a quiet outdoor park. The park was serene, its atmosphere almost cinematic. Thick foliage surrounded them, perfect for a "stealth" encounter.Thomas, as always, agreed without hesitation.But just as she prepared to teach him the infamous "wall pin" move, a hornet's nest, for some reason, fell from above and smashed onto her head. Tina's face s

    Tina gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with stars from the pain.Thomas made no move to help her up. Instead, he circled her, snapping photos from every angle, as if she were some primate in a zoo exhibit."Tina," he said, "hold still a little longer. I need to document what you're teaching me. You can get up when I'm done. Otherwise, you would've fallen for nothing."Tina nearly fainted from rage. Was Thomas a completely oblivious guy?She wanted to call for help, but the sharp agony coursing through her body made speech impossible. She lifted her arm with great effort.Thomas's expression brightened suddenly. "Ah, I see. Tina, you're demonstrating the correct arm angle—this is the proper posture, yes?"From then on, every pose, every expression Tina made was interpreted by him as some "lesson" he was meant to learn.It wasn't until Sharon heard Tina had come that she finally found them and rescued her.Half an hour later, an ambulance carted Tina away.With a sprained ank

    Tina turned to look at Thomas and quickly said, "Sorry, I was just too curious."Thomas settled onto the sofa. "All right, Tina, you may begin."Snapping out of her distraction, Tina started explaining how to create opportunities for subtle, intimate physical contact. As she talked, she glanced at him a few times and noticed he was listening with real focus.After about half an hour, she finally said, "Theory alone isn't enough. We can't skip the practical part. Most chances only come once. If you miss that moment, who knows when the next one will come? Should we try it out—just to get familiar with the steps?"Thomas focused his gaze on her. "Oh? And how do we practice this?"Tina decided to ease him in, slow and steady, like warming a chicken in a pot."Didn't we just talk about how, when you're supporting Sharon, you can naturally guide her into your arms? Why don't we start with that move first?"Thomas's thin lips curved faintly as he rose to his feet. "All right."Looking

    Tina's large, watery eyes darted around, bright with mischief."I can help you create moments that make Sharon's heart flutter," she said, her voice light but earnest. "That way, you two can get closer."Thomas lowered his gaze, thinking for a moment. "But Sharon doesn't seem to feel that way about me… not in a romantic sense."The moment he said that, Tina practically bounced with excitement. "Exactly! That's why we have to cultivate it. Thomas, we have to step it up, or Sharon will be swept away by Xavier, Carter, and the others!"Thomas asked, "And how do you intend to help me?"Tina was about to answer when Sharon, finishing her call, began walking toward them.Tina leaned closer and whispered, "I'll tell you after dinner."The lunch passed in a swirl of Tina's lively chatter, full of anecdotes and teasing.That evening, Tina returned to the McKinzie residence.Sebastian was the first to greet her. "Tina, how did it go today?"Tina lifted her delicate chin, a self-satis

    Tina blinked her eyes, her voice bright and eager. "Sharon, it's so rare to run into you! Lunch is on me today."Before Sharon could respond, Tina chattered on, spilling stories about online gossip about Sharon's relationships that neither Sharon nor Thomas had heard before.She rattled off gossip after gossip, her voice crisp and sweet. Though she talked a lot, it never felt grating or annoying.After a while, Tina seemed to realize she might be overstepping and grew slightly embarrassed."Sorry, I talked too much and probably interrupted your practice," she said, her tone apologetic. "I won't bother you anymore. I'll come back at lunchtime."She left with remarkable tact, disappearing down the hall.Watching from the surveillance screen, Jamie sneered. "Another clueless girl. She has no idea how Thomas will toy with her… and she probably never will."Like Jamie, Thomas was not the type to coddle women.Jamie himself rarely paid attention to women. His reputation alone kept mo
