Chapter 165

Author: Sienna Yates
Though Kelly was a bit curious, she nodded.

It wasn't long before Lucy came back, holding a clipboard.

"Kelly, would you mind giving me your autograph?"

"Of course." Kelly took the pen and signed her name with practiced ease.

Lucy beamed as she accepted the clipboard, then asked, "Are you here today as one of the guest judges?"

"No," Kelly replied with a smile, gently pulling Theo closer. "I'm just here to support Theo for the showcase."

Lucy looked down at Theo, and her eyes lit up with admiration.

"No wonder he's your son. He's extraordinary—you can see it right away. I wouldn't be surprised if you two end up taking home the champion title today."

Coming from a judge, that kind of statement was already stepping over a line.

Another judge, clearly unimpressed by Lucy's behavior, raised his voice with a sharp edge.

"Lucy, who is this woman? A friend of yours?"

Lucy understood the implication but answered without hesitation.

"No, not a friend. This is Kelly Walt, a violinist

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 1558

    Thomas could deal a devastating blow to Lex through the stock market.But global medical resources were firmly monopolized by the Malcolm family. Shaking the Malcolm Group's foundation was no easy task.Sharon understood this as well. No matter how wealthy the Ferrero family was, they couldn't keep burning money forever.If she failed to seize this opportunity to act while Thomas was continuously suppressing the Malcolm Group on the stock market, then his efforts would amount to nothing more than revenge and emotional venting.Sharon knew very well that Thomas never did meaningless things out of momentary anger.And she happened to be holding exactly what was needed to take away the Malcolm Group's resources.What Uriah had given her wasn't equity—but it was something far more coveted than shares.Because of what she possessed, the way Lex, Cole, and Samantha looked at her was laced with undisguised hatred.When Sharon brought Wendy to visit Uriah, he wasn't surprised at all.

    "At the time, we didn't cancel the cooperation because the Malcolm Group was irreplaceable. But now…"Kieran looked at Lex and gave a meaningful smile."Fortunately, Uriah wasn't someone who put profit above all else like you. Luckily, he left us a way out."When Lex left Kieran's place, his expression had darkened to a frightening degree.Through clenched teeth, he spat out, "So it was you, Sharon—bold enough to steal even my family's resources!"…The next day, an uninvited guest appeared in Sharon's office.Seeing Lex standing before her, Sharon showed not the slightest surprise."Lex, you don't come calling often. Would you like coffee or tea?"Lex stared at her coldly. "Those partners of mine—you took them all, didn't you?"Sharon gave him a strange look. "Lex, after so many years in business, you should know what fair competition means."Lex laughed as if he'd heard a joke. "Fair competition? You went behind my back and poached my partners, and now you have the nerve t

    The assistant shook his head. "I've already had people investigate thoroughly. It's not the Ferrero family."Because the Ferrero family was openly targeting the Malcolm Group, nearly everyone in the Malcolm Group had their attention fixed on Thomas.Any movement on his part—no matter how small—would be discovered immediately.Under such close surveillance, if Thomas were to make a move against their medical sector, they would have known at once.Yet, if it wasn't Thomas, then who else would be so overconfident as to challenge the Malcolm family head-on?Lex said coldly, "Keep digging. Thomas is crafty by nature and full of tricks. He might have found another breakthrough somewhere."The assistant acknowledged the order and left.However, over the course of more than a week of investigation, Lex found no evidence linking the incident to Thomas.It was only after Victoria heard about the situation that she offered Lex an idea."Lex, instead of wasting time on Thomas, why not sta

    Liam said, "Don't waste too much energy on people like Julliard. All they're good for is dragging you down and distracting you. They serve no other purpose. The more attention you give them, the more you lose sight of what actually matters."That's why, even though Mr. Ferrero knows this incident has Julliard's fingerprints all over it, he hasn't devoted much energy to him. "Besides, in the future, Sharon will deal with many more people. There will be no shortage of pests like Julliard. You can think of it as practice for her. If she can't even get past Julliard, then no matter how much Mr. Ferrero helps her, she won't go far in the end."Hearing this, Doug had to admit it made sense.With a touch of emotion, he said, "I've never seen Mr. Ferrero worry this much about anyone."The one before had been strong enough on her own—there'd been no need to worry at all.Sure enough, it's the troublesome child who gets the candy.Sometimes, being too strong isn't such a good thing.…

    Doug looked at Thomas and said, "Even setting Carter aside, that scheming Julliard will definitely try every possible way to obstruct Miss McKinzie, and he'll keep whispering bad things about you in her ear."Liam knew Doug's worries weren't unfounded.Julliard truly was a dangerous man. Even Thomas had once fallen into his schemes, nearly losing his life in a sea of fire.Sharon felt gratitude toward Julliard. There was a real chance she might listen to his slander.Yet not a ripple of emotion crossed Thomas's face.His voice remained calm. "Sharon won't. She knows what matters."Doug was still uneasy. "But—"Liam tugged lightly at his arm. "If Mr. Ferrero says she won't, then she won't. Alright, Doug, let's go. Let Mr. Ferrero get some rest."Doug hesitated, wanting to say more, but in the end, he left with Liam.When they reached the doorway, Doug asked, "Liam, why did you stop me? My concern isn't unreasonable, is it?"Sharon has known Julliard for so many years and has a

    Even if Thomas were the richest man in the world, burning money so recklessly, without regard for returns, would still provoke dissatisfaction among his family members."The Malcolm Group isn't some small company he can casually bankrupt," Lex continued. "The medical industry's irreplaceability isn't something he can simply overpower with tactics. He won't be able to keep this up for long."Victoria said, "Jamie and Silas fell into his trap because they were unprepared. If he could deal with every major family at will, wouldn't that make him invincible? Wouldn't the world belong entirely to the Ferrero family then?"Victoria had suffered too many losses at Thomas's hands. She hated him to the point of wishing he were gone for good.Cole added, "Now that Sharon has fallen out with him, does that mean he won't keep going against us for her sake anymore? The Ferrero family is full of lunatics. If you ask me, it's better to have as little involvement with them as possible."Besides, n
