LOGINCarmen's clear voice came through the phone. "Hi, Sharon. Something you need from me?"Sharon asked directly, "Has Thomas's hypnosis been rechecked?"Carmen replied, "Mm. A couple of days ago, Chris and I accompanied him to see Dr. Dole. There are no issues with the hypnosis for now."Sharon fell silent.Sensing her quietness, Carmen immediately picked up on something."Did you notice something off?"Instead of answering directly, Sharon asked, "Based on your understanding of Thomas, if he were to recover all his memories, what do you think he would do?"After a brief pause, Carmen said thoughtfully, "Most likely, only two possibilities—ignore it, or seek revenge."He has already accepted the separation. Even if he remembers everything, he would probably just view it as a failed relationship. Like how ordinary people treat an ex after a breakup—ignore them and move on with life."As for revenge… Thomas is someone who always settles scores. If he believes you betrayed his feeli
After placing the clothes in one of the guest rooms, Sharon said to Thomas, "The clothes have arrived. You can change after you finish eating."Thomas responded politely, "Thank you."More than ten minutes later, he finished the noodles.He did not hesitate to offer praise. "Miss McKinzie, your cooking is impressive. These noodles are very good."Sharon replied, "You're too kind. It's just a simple bowl of noodles."Thomas said, "The simpler the ingredients, the more skill and technique they require."Sharon smiled faintly. "I'm glad you like them."She didn't dare continue the polite exchange. With Thomas's personality, there was no telling—if he suddenly felt like it one day, he might actually show up at her door for another bowl.Thomas then went to the guest room to change.A short while later, he came out in a fresh set of clothes. The outfit he wore now was similar in style to what he had worn earlier—white dress shirt and black suit trousers. The fit was perfect, as tho
The repair workshop had a bathroom.In the past, whenever Sharon and Thomas finished their work here, they would also shower and change clothes on-site.But Thomas said that since he had already taken action against those people, they might come back with reinforcements. He didn't want to be caught mid-shower and interrupted.Sharon couldn't find a reason to refute him.Afterward, Thomas asked for her home address and drove straight to her place.At first, she didn't think anything of it. But as she listened to the sound of running water from the bathroom, it slowly dawned on her. Bringing a man home to shower—someone she had only just met a few days ago, barely more than an acquaintance—was far too intimate.She had always been unguarded around Thomas, but their relationship was no longer what it once had been.Still, now that he was already here, regretting it would change nothing.Sharon wasn't worried that Thomas would do anything to her. He was not that kind of man—reckles
The man's hand gripped the sleeve of Sharon's protective suit. For the moment, she could tolerate it.She said, "How about we go outside and talk?"The man grinned lecherously, still holding her arm. "Give me a kiss first, and I might consider it."Before Sharon could respond, a low, indifferent voice came from the doorway."Let go of her hand."Her attention had been fixed on the car behind her, and the thugs' focus had been entirely on her as well. None of them had noticed someone appear at the entrance.At the sound of the voice, everyone—including Sharon—turned toward the door.A tall, striking figure stood quietly where light and shadow overlapped. He was backlit, his expression indistinct. Only his voice—cool and clear as water—cut sharply through the tense air."I said, let go."The man in front of Sharon finally snapped back to his senses. He immediately barked, "Who the hell are you? Get lost! Don't ruin my fun, or you won't like what happens next—"Before he could f
Wendy had been completely speechless when she saw that article.Aside from the outrageous rumors, her unflattering photos had also been leaked all over the internet. It drove her nearly insane.Fortunately, Sharon had quickly shifted into behind-the-scenes work, which spared her a great deal of harassment.After hanging up, Sharon hesitated for a few seconds before calling Jamie.The call was quickly answered. "Sharon."She got straight to the point. "What happened to Belinda—was that your doing?"There was a brief silence on the other end before Jamie replied, "No."Ever since she told him she didn't need his help anymore, he had stopped acting on her behalf. He knew she didn't approve of his methods.Sharon understood. Just as she was about to end the call, Jamie suddenly spoke again."Sharon."She paused, waiting.His voice turned low and deep. "It was Thomas."Sharon simply said, "Got it," and ended the call.Lifting her gaze, she saw the few black roses arranged in a
Otherwise, even if Sharon were in the right, she would still be labeled as ill-mannered. And those who were always looking for opportunities to smear her would only amplify it endlessly.Besides, in the past, Belinda only dared to act out when no one else was around, at least maintaining some semblance of image.This time, however, she had dared to confront her openly—likely because she assumed Thomas was just an ordinary man with no power or background, and no longer felt the need to pretend."In the past, she…" Sharon began.But halfway through, she fell silent.She had intended to say that the only reason she tolerated Belinda was because, during Belinda's obsessive pursuit of Carter, she had once accidentally saved Theo.But Thomas had already lost all memory of those people. Explaining the connections between Carter and Theo would only complicate things unnecessarily.More importantly, Sharon didn't want to bring up too much of the past in front of him.Seeing her pause, T
Sharon shook her head. "John and I have been playing together since we were kids. Our chemistry is just fine."Casey nodded. "As long as that's not a problem."Wendy recalled the recent kidnapping and suddenly asked, "Sharon, did they ever catch that kidnapper?"Sharon replied, "Xavier said not y
"If the Biggs family loses Theo again, I will take this to court and file for a change in custody."Without waiting for Carter's response, Sharon turned and walked away without looking back.…Sharon was indeed very busy. Not only was she preparing for her upcoming concert, but she also had to at
By the time Julliard returned, the auction had already begun.Nate spotted him and immediately rushed over, eager to share the juicy gossip he'd just picked up."Julliard, did you hear? The Malcolm family's heir, Lex, is apparently a complete pervert! I overheard someone saying he harassed a woman
Cole said, "A blind date? Didn't you tell Grandpa you were planning to propose marriage to the Kalen family?"Lex replied, "He said the Kalen family hasn't agreed to anything, nor have they formalized any engagement with us. So to him, it doesn't count."Cole suddenly remembered something and coul
