All Chapters of Side Chick Era… Over: Chapter 631 - Chapter 640

Rick's heart ached deeply for Victoria.He was someone who truly valued talent, and Victoria was someone he had watched grow up. He saw firsthand how exceptional she was.Though Victoria wasn't born of his mother, she had been obedient and sensible since childhood—never demanding what wasn't hers, often even giving up her own belongings for others.She was gifted, hardworking, and driven—a prodigy from the start.Yet despite her brilliance and her status as the eldest daughter of the Kalen family, she had never enjoyed a single day of luxury.Rick didn't hold any bias toward sons over daughters. As the company's next heir, he judged solely by ability. For someone as capable as Victoria to pursue music was a waste of talent. He often wondered why Richard had insisted on forcing her down the musical path.With this in mind, Rick asked again, "Are those stubborn old-timers using their shares to threaten and bar Victoria from joining Kalen Group?"Richard nodded. "I've managed to bu

Sharon's wrist was still a bit swollen, making it inconvenient to practice the violin.Taking a few days off wouldn't affect her much, and she could use the time to discuss the upcoming concert with Wendy.After Thomas found out Sharon couldn't practice for the next couple of days, he looked genuinely disappointed.Seeing this, Wendy laughed. "Does Sharon's violin playing have some kind of hypnotic power? You can't sleep at night if you don't hear it all day?"Wendy had meant it as a joke, so she was surprised when Thomas nodded seriously."Sharon's playing has a way of relaxing the mind and body. If I don't hear her violin even for a day, I just can't sleep."Wendy was momentarily stunned, then teased, "Thomas, you're such a sweet talker!"She had called it hypnotic, but with Thomas's words, it sounded more like a melody lingering in the air for days.Thomas was usually sharp and eloquent, and Wendy found herself liking him more and more—not in a romantic way, but as a friend.

Wendy saw Sharon hesitate and urged again, "Lex is such a lowlife. What if he lays a hand on you again and you have no one to help? At least Thomas will watch your back."Sharon thought it over and nodded. "All right, then.""I'll go get Thomas," Wendy said.After Wendy left, Sharon was about to call Julliard when his call came through first.His voice trembled with barely concealed worry, "Sharon, I heard you were in a car accident yesterday after the auction. Are you okay?""I'm fine," Sharon replied.Julliard knew about Lex's accident—how lucky Lex was to have survived—and though he felt it was such a pity, he quickly accepted it.He hadn't expected Sharon to be involved in a crash as well, especially one linked to Lex's car.Luckily, her driving skills were solid; otherwise, she might have been seriously harmed because of Lex.The news had sent chills down Julliard's spine.Sharon recounted the incident. "Carter and I were on our way to pick up Theo. Lex was probably send

If it hadn't been for Theo, Sharon knew she wouldn't have endured her marriage for so long.After the divorce, without a career she cared about, she doubted she would have recovered so quickly. She would have been broken, lost, and uncertain about the future.Thinking this over, Sharon nodded slightly in agreement.Thomas was young but surprisingly perceptive—perhaps even more so than she was.Sharon asked, "If you find that important person, what will you do?"Thomas replied, "I'll try to fulfill their wishes."No sooner had he spoken than his phone vibrated.Stopping their conversation, Thomas said, "I need to take this call."Sharon nodded and watched him walk away.Suddenly, she realized—besides them, Thomas actually had other contacts?But it wasn't too surprising. Thomas's cheerful, sunny nature made it easy for him to quickly connect with people and make new friends.Before long, Sharon's phone buzzed with a message from Julliard.Julliard: [It's done.]Below was th

Kelly flinched slightly. She had only meant to injure her hand to draw Carter's pity. She had forgotten that Thomas's kindness stemmed from her ability to play the violin.He was truly cold and heartless. This was why Kelly chose Carter over Thomas. She knew that even if she asked Thomas to marry her, he would agree.But she feared the day her lies would be exposed—she would rather die than face that.Though Thomas helped her, there was no romantic feeling between them.To be precise, he had no feelings for her at all. He was like an emotionless machine, and all his kindness toward her was mechanical and cold.She did not doubt Thomas's words. Today, he could give her everything she wanted. Tomorrow, he could turn his back and deny her completely.To him, she was utterly insignificant. The only thing that mattered was the value he assigned her when he heard her play the violin.Lowering her head, Kelly whispered, "I understand. It won't happen again."But soon, she lifted h
