Chapter 1955

Autor: Sienna Yates
Dr. Galen sipped his tea slowly and said, "You're mistaken. Jamie's being courteous to me because I offered conditions and stepped in. Had I refused, he would have used his tricks on me just the same. That boy flips out the moment someone crosses him."

Uriah shot him a sidelong glance. "So you'd rather owe me a favor than not help him detox?"

Dr. Galen smiled lightly. "I don't care if someone's good or bad—I respect young people who dare to think and act. Unlike you, who put on airs and insist

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 2238

    Richard wasn't trying to cover anything up for Thomas.Rather, Victoria had already caused too many problems for him—and for the Kalen family.Because of her actions, Richard had been humiliated, again and again.The more proud he had once been of Victoria, the more he now deigned to see her.As a father, he had already shown her enough tolerance and taken responsibility for her misdeeds. That was as far as his duty went.But after disgracing the Kalen family, she had shown no remorse. Worse still, she had later severely injured Samantha inside the Kalen residence.Samantha was Victoria's sister-in-law and once her closest friend. If she could treat Samantha that way, would she one day use the same methods against her own biological father?To this day, Samantha was still lying in the intensive care unit. They had only just managed to suppress news of her condition, and yet, Victoria had already come out again to cause trouble.Seeing Richard's grim expression, a faint, eerie s

    "After all, we've only known each other for a short time," Thomas said.Everyone present was shrewd. The moment those words left Thomas's mouth, they immediately caught the underlying implication.Only a short time.In other words, Thomas did not remember what had happened three years ago.A flicker of unfathomable light passed through Rick's eyes. He had deliberately chosen not to have Victoria expose him immediately—partly because he wanted to test Thomas. If Thomas had already recovered his memories, then Victoria's "exposure" would lose all meaning.Rick wasn't foolish enough to miss that.He said, "Thomas, how did you meet Sharon? I've never heard her mention you before."Thomas replied indifferently, "I came to Marcentine some time ago and accidentally rear-ended Sharon's car. That's how we met."We haven't known each other long. It was something of a flash marriage. It's normal you haven't heard Sharon mention meeting me."Richard, Rick, and Scott were all rendered spee

    Three years had passed since Sharon and Thomas had last seen each other. Their relationship was no longer what it had once been.Although Sharon didn't dislike being close to him, they were outside now, and she wasn't accustomed to such intimate contact.Instinctively, she tried to pull away.Before she could, Thomas lowered his voice and said, "Someone's watching us from the shadows... Jamie asked you out today. For all we know, he did it to keep an eye on us and report back to the Ferrero family."Hearing that, Sharon could only stiffen and stop herself from moving away.After a brief hesitation, she said, "Jamie... probably wouldn't collude with the Ferrero family."Thomas's tone remained calm."Then why did he kidnap Marina?""Maybe he was angered by the messages Marina sent him, so he kidnapped her because of that."A dark look flickered in Thomas's eyes, and his voice turned low and husky."Sharon, I know you and Jamie have a special relationship, but his goodwill is di

    "Quite an impressive scheme, Jamie," Thomas said.Watching Thomas tell blatant lies with a perfectly straight face, Jamie nearly laughed in disbelief."Thomas, have you ever heard the phrase staging your own performance?"Thomas's intention in deliberately suggesting that he had colluded with the Ferrero family was obvious—Thomas wanted Sharon to keep her distance from Jamie.At this point, Jamie no longer had any desire to explain himself. He turned to Sharon."Sharon, I'd like to speak with Thomas alone."A trace of concern surfaced in Sharon's eyes. She was genuinely worried that the two men would end up fighting before the conversation was over.Seeing her expression, Thomas said, "Sharon, don't worry about me. I can protect myself."Sharon fell silent. The person she was worried about wasn't him at all. It was Jamie.After all, Jamie would be fortunate just to protect himself in front of Thomas.In the end, Sharon stood up.Jamie handed the tabby cat to her.Only after

    Jamie fell silent for a few seconds before speaking."Sharon, I told you yesterday. She isn't in my hands. Marina escaped on her own midway through the trip."Sharon replied, "Marina called again yesterday. She said your bodyguards took her to another country.""She called again?" Jamie glanced at Thomas, a meaningful look flickering in his eyes."Sharon, think about it carefully. If I had personally orchestrated her kidnapping, would she have had any chance to make a phone call?"Sharon couldn't help recalling her own experience of being kidnapped.When it came to abductions, Jamie was a professional. If he had handled it himself, Marina probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to make a call.At that moment, Thomas, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke."That would be because Marina is quite skilled. She managed to seize a rare opportunity. But since you're so confident in your kidnapping abilities, why did you claim you failed to keep an eye on her and allowed

    The only option left to Rick was to find another way.But when he began looking for allies to help him deal with Sharon, he suddenly realized that there was almost no one left he could form an alliance with.The only person who might still be willing to join forces with him was Lesley.Sharon held thirty percent of the Walton Group's shares—more than even Lesley.If he and Lesley worked together, each pursuing their own interests, it would be the perfect arrangement.The only thing Rick wasn't sure about was whether Lesley still possessed the strength to fight for power.But judging from the fact that Lesley's legs were fully functional and he hadn't lost his eyesight, he clearly still had some capabilities.No sooner had Rick ended his call with Richard than his phone rang again.It was Lesley.With a faint smile, Lesley said, "Rick, the time has come."Naturally, Rick knew exactly what Lesley meant by that.Since Sharon and Thomas had become entangled with each other once

    For a moment, Scott and Silas's expressions turned complicated.Even Rick hadn't expected this outcome, but since Sharon hadn't embarrassed the Kalen family, it could be counted as a small victory.Richard, however, beamed with pride, his face glowing as if nothing in the world could compare to th

    Murderous intent flickered in Xavier's eyes.He pressed again, "Then why was your phone found there?"Lex replied evenly, "Not long ago, I lost my phone. I've no idea why it turned up in that place."Clever men rose to power. For Lex to sit as head of the family, he was naturally shrewd. Not only

    A quiet, indescribable warmth stirred in Sharon's heart.Cradling the music box with care, she whispered, "Thank you. I'll treasure it."Seeing that she truly liked it, a soft light rose in Julliard's eyes. But as his thoughts drifted back to recent events, a shadow settled over his heart.Lex ha

    "One thing's clear, Richard," an older shareholder said sharply. "Your three sons perform admirably when times are calm—but the moment trouble hits, their lack of competence is glaring."Whatever the reason, the first priority should have been to stabilize Sharon, not provoke her further."Another
