Side Chick Era… Over Chapter 476
Carter's gaze flickered slightly as he looked at Kelly. She avoided his eyes, maintaining a strained smile on her face. But the subtle flicker in her eyes betrayed her true emotions.His expression darkened.That look… was guilt. Could there be more to this than Kelly had let on?Nate was about to speak again, but Carter cut him off."Enough. They're both soaked through. Let's not risk anyone catching a cold. We'll talk later."Nate, naturally assuming Carter was showing concern for Kelly, sneered at Sharon. "You're dead."With that, he scooped Kelly into his arms and walked away.Watching them leave, Sharon turned to go as well.But Carter stepped in front of her. "Change into dry clothes before you leave.""There's no need," she said coolly."You'll catch a cold walking around like that."The familiar words made Sharon pause.Before Kelly returned, her relationship with Carter had never been passionate, but it had at least been respectful. He wasn't always cold. From time

After Kelly sent Carter and Nate away, Sharon had already guessed she was up to something shady again.So, without a sound, she quietly opened the voice recording app on her phone.Truthfully, she'd had a bad feeling earlier—ever since Kelly had called and asked her to come over, she suspected trouble. Kelly had suffered too many losses at her hands lately. Even though Kelly managed to seize Sharon's studio and force her into composing music, she'd paid a steep price of 10 million dollars.Despite all her smug gloating, Kelly hadn't really gained the upper hand. If anything, Sharon had come out on top.With Carter's payout, she'd essentially become a minor tycoon overnight, with more than enough capital to start over.In hindsight, if someone had offered that kind of money to buy their studio before all this happened, they might have agreed. After all, no one in their right mind turns their back on that much cash.But the buyer this time was Kelly and Carter. There was no way S

Carter fell silent for a few seconds before finally speaking. "Maybe… you just slipped and fell by accident."Sharon hadn't intended to argue with him at length, but in this moment, she suddenly grew curious—just how far was Carter willing to go to excuse Kelly?She asked, "So you mean to say I can't even tell whether I was pushed into the lake or fell in by accident?""Maybe when you slipped, Kelly tried to grab you, but in that split second, you misunderstood and thought she pushed you. It was a chaotic moment. Misjudging what happened wouldn't be impossible."In that instant, Sharon could only marvel at Carter's capacity for creative fiction. As long as it could whitewash Kelly's actions, there was nothing he couldn't make up.While they spoke, Nate had already pulled Kelly from the water.She hadn't been under long, so she was still conscious, though her body trembled as she sobbed. "Carter… Sharon kicked me into the lake… right in front of you… Does she really want me dead?"

Sharon looked at Carter, her gaze cold and glassy."Carter, I warned you to keep your precious Kelly away from me. If you can't control the dog you raised, then don't blame others for disciplining it for you."Her eyes locked on his. "Not everyone shows mercy just because the dog has an owner."The world went utterly still. Even the wind seemed to hold its breath.For a moment, Carter stood frozen in place. Then Kelly's panicked scream shattered the silence."Carter, save me…"She flailed in the lake, arms outstretched toward Carter on the shore. "Carter, help me… Please! I can't swim!"Nate snapped out of his daze. Humiliation from Sharon's earlier slap forgotten, he rushed to save Kelly.But before he could get far, Sharon lifted her foot and kicked him squarely in the rear, sending him tumbling into the water with an awkward splash.Nate landed in the lake in the most undignified manner. He turned back, face flushed with shame and fury. "Sharon, you—!"Before he could fini

When Madeline learned of the incident, she showed no sympathy. Instead, she scolded Sharon for making a fuss over nothing.Later, Carter tracked down the person who had "accidentally" pushed Sharon into the water. But since everyone invited to Madeline's birthday banquet belonged to elite families closely tied to the Biggs family, holding them accountable was out of the question. The best they could do was offer a forced apology.But compared to nearly drowning, a flimsy "sorry" meant nothing.After Carter had them delete the video of Sharon, the whole affair was swept under the rug.Sharon's fear of water traced back to her childhood—she had once fallen into the sea while boating with her mother.Later, life grew busy, and she lived far from the coast, with little exposure to oceans or lakes. Though years had passed and her phobia had faded somewhat, her instinct was still to avoid water. She'd never learned to swim.But after that incident at Madeline's birthday party, it took

Nate froze for a second when he saw what happened. Then he scoffed."Sharon is always causing drama. We were gone for what, five minutes? And she's already making a scene again. She probably fell in on purpose. Just trying to get your attention. Next thing you know, she'll pretend she can't swim, so you'll have to give her mouth-to-mouth. Seriously pathetic. She's getting more manipulative by the day."Carter's eyes narrowed.He suddenly remembered—Sharon was terrified of water. She never learned how to swim.His pupils shrank as he instinctively moved, ready to jump in and pull her out, but before he could, Sharon surfaced and began swimming steadily toward shore.Even Carter stood stunned.And on the bridge above, Kelly's expression froze as well.Didn't Nate say Sharon couldn't swim?By the time Sharon reached land, Carter and Nate were already hurrying toward her.Carter held out a hand to help her up, but she ignored him completely and pulled herself out, straight-faced.
