Side Chick Era… Over Chapter 1552
Julliard still wanted to say something, but at that moment, Sharon's phone rang—another work-related call.She stayed on the line for more than ten minutes, with no sign of hanging up.Wendy said calmly, "Julliard, Sharon is very busy. She really doesn't have that much time to chat with you. So if there's nothing else, you should head back first."Seeing the displeasure on Wendy's face, Julliard knew that staying any longer would only make him more unwelcome.All he could say was, "Alright, then I'll leave for now. Once you're done with work, I'll treat you both to a meal."Wendy let out a cold snort and said nothing.Julliard took one long, lingering look at Sharon, then quickly turned and left.Not long after he was gone, Sharon finally finished her call.The moment she hung up, Wendy hurried over to talk to her."Sharon, don't listen to Julliard's nonsense. You absolutely must not refuse Thomas's help. Even if you want to say no, you should at least accept it this time. Oth

Thomas's move against the Malcolm Group this time didn't actually earn him any real advantage. If anything, it was a losing deal.It was the kind of fight where you cripple the enemy at the cost of crippling yourself even more.Precisely because it was so inefficient, so lacking in return, very few people would ever choose to do it.Businesspeople understand cost–benefit trade-offs better than anyone. Even if there's no profit to be made, you still shouldn't take a loss like that.Wendy continued, "Besides, Thomas has poured that much money into this. If we just pull out now, wouldn't all that money be for nothing? Yes, he's rich, but that money didn't fall from the sky."Julliard shot back emotionally, "So what if it's for nothing? That money was owed to Sharon in the first place! He hurt her so badly— even if he invested his entire fortune, it still wouldn't make up for it!"The moment the words left his mouth, the room fell silent.Sharon and Wendy both frowned at him at the

Julliard looked at Sharon, his tone earnest."Someone who lies as easily as he breathes would never help anyone without a reason. There could be another trap waiting for us."He paused, his gaze dark as it shifted to Wendy."If he teams up with Lex, Sharon will be in danger."Wendy was fiercely protective by nature. Hearing this, her expression darkened at once."Julliard, what nonsense are you talking about? If Thomas wanted to harm Sharon, why would he wait until now? Wouldn't it have been much easier back when she had just returned to the Kalen family and hadn't even secured her footing?"As if recalling something, Wendy added with thinly veiled sarcasm, "Back then, it was Thomas who invested fifty billion to help Sharon acquire the Silverstone Group's shares. If I remember correctly, at that time your company was still under attack by Jamie. Sharon poured the rest of her funds into your company to help you stabilize the situation."You benefited from his help, Julliard. I'm

Finally, it might only serve as a tool to deepen mutual distrust.Thomas's choice had been the right one.Even Wendy felt a hollow emptiness at his departure. But for Sharon, who had spent every day alongside him, the void was far greater.After saying goodbye to Sharon, Wendy returned to her room to rest. Lying on the bed, a thought struck her—something she had overlooked.Thomas hadn't taken nothing at all. The birthday gifts Sharon had given him were missing from the room. If he had not returned since that day, then taking those gifts beforehand was yet another sign that he had long prepared to leave.…Occasionally, Thomas would step out to handle matters for Sharon, so his absence hadn't drawn too much attention.During this time, Wendy hadn't been idle at Lesley's side either. She was learning about business, and whenever something stumped her, she would consult John. For simpler tasks, Wendy could handle them on her own.One day, while Wendy was reviewing work matters wi

Wendy listened quietly, her face betraying no surprise or shock."I figured as much," she said finally. "He probably deliberately fed me that information. That's why I chose to stay close to him back then—I knew he had a grudge against Jamie. Even if he didn't help me, he definitely wouldn't side with Jamie."If there was a chance to take Jamie down, he would take it. Even if he didn't think I could succeed, if he didn't act, that opportunity would vanish forever. He gave me a chance. Even if the odds were just one percent, it was better than zero."If I were him, I would do the same. Even if I got exposed, I'd just throw myself out—I'd lose nothing. Whether he discovered me or not wasn't my concern. I came to him seeking an opportunity, a way to deal with Jamie."Sharon had always thought Wendy was the one kept in the dark. Yet here she was, thinking so clearly and strategically. And she had delivered—because of the chance Wendy provided, they had been able to seriously cripple Ja

Wendy badly wanted to stay the night and continue exploring the next day. But seeing how low Sharon's spirits were, she knew this hurdle wouldn't be easy to cross. Sharon needed time—space to breathe and process.She said softly, "Sharon, let's go home."Sharon nodded. "Okay."The rain outside had stopped, but the air was still damp and cold. Once they were in the car, Sharon couldn't help shivering.Wendy immediately turned on the heater."Sharon, are you cold? Do you want to borrow my jacket?""No, I'm fine. I'm not cold."Maybe it was the long day catching up with her, but as the car moved smoothly along, Sharon gradually fell asleep.She dreamed of the first time she had met Thomas.He had appeared so abruptly, right in front of her car. She'd questioned his identity at the time. Still, she'd thought that if he were only trying to get close to her, crashing into her car would have been far too reckless—borderline suicidal.Suspicious though she was, Sharon had kept him by
