Chapter 262

Author: Sienna Yates
Sharon's brow twitched faintly.

She looked at Julliard. "You're Carter's friend, yet you're the one telling me this… So should I trust you? Or should I be suspicious that you're sharing this with me for your own reasons?"

Julliard understood. What had happened last time had left a wall between them.

A flicker of guilt crossed his face. "After I ran into you at the hospital, I went to talk to Carter. He refused to let Wendy go, so I thought maybe… maybe I could help Wendy escape on my own.

"I had just found her location when Carter suddenly let her go. But I didn't expect her to be caught again so quickly. I figured she must've offended someone else, and I didn't want you to worry—so I said what I said."

He gave a faint, bitter smile. "I didn't expect you'd already gotten to her first. I'm sorry. I should've done more."

Sharon's expression softened noticeably.

So it was just as Wendy had said—by the time Julliard was searching for her, Carter had already let her go.

She'd misjud

I was hoping that Sharon might and up with Juliard but the room full of her photos? That's not healthy.

Isn’t it a big blow to Carter if Sharon ended up with Julliard.

  • Side Chick Era… Over   Chapter 452

    The stunning appearance of the four women caused quite a stir at the airport.Many passersby mistook the four for celebrities and pulled out their phones to snap photos.Aside from Sharon, the other three were completely unfazed. They had long grown accustomed to this kind of attention.Walking beside Sharon, Carol Fraser asked, "Sharon, have you finally come around? Ready to pick your career back up?"Sharon gave a gentle nod. "I'm sorry I haven't kept in touch all these years, and now I'm suddenly reaching out to ask for your help."These three women were not only Sharon's university classmates, they were also members of Bell University's Hall of Fame. Each of them had become a leading figure in her respective field of music.Two of them had even turned down invitations from Maestro Warner himself.They came from prominent families, with ample support and resources. There was never a real need to become Warner's student. Besides, the maestro was notoriously strict, and they we

    Carter added, "Besides, we got her studio and her composition."The smile on Kelly's face froze.There was a hint of guilt in Carter's words—guilt toward Sharon.And once he began to feel indebted to Sharon, the balance in his heart would inevitably tip in Sharon's favor.Carter wasn't completely unaware that what he was doing was wrong. He knew. And yet, he did it anyway.With Kelly's final concert having failed to launch, everything else had to make way for her.If Carter ever found out her illness was a lie…everything she currently possessed would be stripped away.No. She couldn't allow that to happen.At that thought, a cold glint flashed through Kelly's eyes....A few days later, Sharon received a call from Kelly."Sharon, I spoke with Maestro Warner about helping arrange a performance for you. But… he doesn't have the best impression of you, so he refused."She paused for a beat before continuing."Still, since I already promised you, I'll see it through. I've aske

    Sharon said calmly, "Nate asked me to deliver the sheet music."Kelly quickly pieced everything together and immediately understood Nate's intention. For once, he'd done something that actually made sense.Her lashes lowered slightly. "Sharon, I'm truly sorry. Something unexpected came up on my end, and it looks like I made you come here for nothing."Sharon replied, "It's no trouble. I'll just consider it a complimentary ticket from Nate."Kelly smiled. "Right, I almost forgot. You probably don't get many chances to attend concerts of this caliber, do you? Actually, it's not just you. Even for me, without Maestro Warner's support, I wouldn't have been able to take part in an event like this."As she spoke, she glanced at Carter, a hint of sincere emotion in her expression. "Of course, I also have Carter to thank for introducing me to Maestro Warner."Upon hearing that, Sharon let out a cold laugh internally.Knowing full well the shady means she had used to secure that introduc

    "What a flawless performance. Maestro Warner's eye for talent is as sharp as ever.""And she's stunning too. Honestly, she just gets more beautiful the longer you look.""Looks like the music world has a new prodigy ready to take it by storm.""Kelly made quite the impression in front of so many high-profile figures. Her future is limitless."Basking in praise, Kelly gave a deep bow to the audience, then exited the stage amid thunderous applause.Despite the performance being over, Sharon made no move to go backstage. Instead, she remained seated, continuing to enjoy the following acts.About half an hour later, the music portion of the event came to an end, transitioning into other talent showcases. Sharon checked the time and finally decided it was time to go look for Kelly.But as soon as she approached the backstage area, a commotion broke out nearby.Suddenly, a thought struck her. Nate hadn't called or texted to rush her over. Could something have happened?Following the

    Sharon saw right through Nate's petty tricks.But his attempts to flaunt and provoke didn't amount to anything meaningful in her eyes. If anything, the reason she agreed to come tonight wasn't to play along with his drama; it was because she genuinely wanted to observe the concert organized by Maestro Warner.Though the maestro wouldn't appear onstage himself, any event personally arranged by him was still a rare learning opportunity.Nate thought he'd invited her just to get under her skin. What he didn't realize was that far from being upset, Sharon was actually quite thankful.Given her current standing, she wouldn't normally have the qualifications to attend a performance of this caliber.Her gaze shifted slightly, eyes gleaming as she studied Nate with a new perspective.Unwittingly, he had done her a huge favor.Nate, noticing that there was no trace of anger or indignation on her face—instead, only a strange, unreadable look—was instantly rattled."What are you staring a

    Sharon fell silent for a few seconds before finally saying, "We'll just have to take it one step at a time."Wendy suddenly remembered something. "Oh, right, didn't Mr. Malcolm call you a few days ago? He asked you to prepare a performance for his old buddies. Has the date been set yet? I heard Matty has been practicing hard too. Last time I overheard Matty telling Mr. Malcolm he wanted to perform for the old folks as well."Sharon nodded. "It's scheduled for the end of the month, but…"Noticing her hesitation, Wendy asked, "But what?"Sharon frowned slightly. "The venue Mr. Malcolm gave me is the most luxurious private club in Amstern City. Apparently, we can't even get past the door without a membership."Wendy waved it off. "Maybe he's just inviting some of his old military comrades, and since it's a rare occasion, he wants to make it special."She patted Sharon on the shoulder and added, "Don't be fooled by how Mr. Malcolm guards that run-down clinic. He's been practicing med
