All Chapters of Side Chick Era… Over: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

The girl had married well—her husband came from an extremely wealthy family.To sever all ties with Warner, she returned every cent he had ever given her. Every tuition, every expense he had covered. All of it.But money had never been the point.He'd poured his time and energy into her, nurtured her talent with care and pride. And in the end, she had used that effort as a springboard—to marry into money.After that, Warner's views on so-called housewives turned bleak.A full-time homemaker who hadn't touched a violin in five years—no matter how extraordinary her talent once was, time would have worn it away by now.With that thought, Warner let out a long, weighted sigh. The last sliver of hope he'd held for finding her—the person he had been searching for—quietly dimmed.He stood up. "In that case, let's forget it."Seeing that he was about to leave, Kelly quickly stepped forward to block his path."Warner, I… I'm her junior. Would you consider giving me a chance instead?"

Sharon stared at the calendar, her eyes lingering on the date. She marked it carefully in her notes.Twenty-five days left in the divorce cooling-off period.It felt way too long. Each day dragged like a lifetime.Just as the thought crossed her mind, her phone rang.She glanced at the caller ID, then picked up.Carter's voice came sharp through the receiver, tinged with irritation."Sharon, didn't you promise me that Kelly would finish at least one full course of the medication? She went to get it today. Why didn't you give it to her?"Whether Kelly was willing to take the medicine was one thing. Whether Sharon gave it to her was another entirely.She'd known Kelly would go running to Carter. Of course she would. It was exactly the kind of thing that could be twisted as "evidence" that Sharon wanted her dead.Sharon's voice was calm. "I gave you a letter of forgiveness. I handed over the first round of medicine. And all you've done in return is initiate a cooling-off period.

This was the treatment room. There weren't any surveillance cameras here. Kelly could say whatever she wanted, and no one could refute her.Just then, Uriah, having finished seeing his patient, walked over. He heard Kelly's explanation and responded coolly, "Oh? You grabbed the wrong bottle, and now it's somehow my fault?"Sharon said sharply, "If you didn't know whether the bottle could be used or what was in it, couldn't you ask? Did someone sew your mouth shut?" A thin smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.Kelly lowered her head, eyes brimming with tears. "I'm sorry. I was being careless. I wasn't paying attention.""Have you ever considered," Sharon's voice sliced through the air, her eyes sharp and unrelenting, "what your carelessness could have meant for the patient? For this clinic? That's a human life we're talking about. If someone had taken that medicine and something went wrong, Mr. Malcolm would be the one held responsible!"By the time she finished, her tone had r

"Sharon, did you know?" Kelly said lightly. "To make it up to me for everything I've just been through, Carter's taking me to pick out some jewelry."She smiled sweetly, the malice behind it barely concealed. "He said I can choose whatever I like—anything that makes me happy. Oh, and you and Carter got married without even exchanging rings, didn't you? That's just… disgraceful."She let out a delicate but mocking laugh. "Don't worry, I'll make sure to convince Carter to pick something out for you too."With that, Kelly walked off, smile still in place.Uriah's beard twitched with fury as he scowled. "That heartless girl… is she always this arrogant in front of you?"Sharon nodded. "She's always been like that."Uriah snorted. "Then why don't you just go up there and slap her? Knock some sense into her?"Sharon gave a soft chuckle. "Two slaps would be letting her off too easily."Uriah narrowed his eyes at her. He didn't take well to being slighted. "Oh? Then what do you have in

Nate turned to the sales associate, his smile cold and tight."If you don't care about keeping your job, by all means, sell the bracelet to her. Just don't blame me when you can't find a job—not just in Amstern City, but anywhere in the whole damn country."The associate froze, glancing over at Kelly. Her face drained of color.It didn't take long for the associate to realize—this was that woman, the one who had once made headlines for her rumored affair with Carter Biggs.She was just a store clerk. How could someone like her go up against the Biggs Group?Kelly made a show of gently intervening. "Nate, don't say that.""You're just too soft, Kelly. That's why someone like Sharon—a woman who has no shame crawling into a man's bed—could steal your guy. Today, I'll teach her a lesson for you."Sharon's expression was unreadable, her voice low and cool. "You're not qualified to teach me anything."She glanced at the two of them, then smiled slightly before raising her voice. "So
