All Chapters of Side Chick Era… Over: Chapter 731 - Chapter 740

Thomas nodded honestly. "I admit… I'm a little afraid."Carter's voice dripped with scorn. "I thought you had courage, but it seems… not much at all."Thomas remained calm, unshaken by the ridicule. "Competitions have winners and losers, and winning or losing comes with conditions. I can't agree lightly to your terms. What if I fail? I'd only be digging a hole for myself. After all, I'm not like you, Carter. I don't have your power and influence. I can't afford to lose."Carter's eyes narrowed. "The condition is simple. You can meet it, and you can bear the consequences. If you lose… you have to leave Zachemaine, and you'll never appear before Sharon again."Thomas raised an eyebrow. "And if I win?"Carter's voice was cool, calm, and confident. "Then the condition is yours to set."Thomas smiled faintly. "Carter… what do you take Sharon for? She is not your possession, nor a tool for your gambling. You open your mouth with terms like this—don't you think it's disrespectful? Hav

Thomas said, "It's nothing… they just look familiar, like I've seen them somewhere before."Sharon asked, "Have you regained some of your memory?"He was quiet for a few seconds. "Sometimes I dream of scattered fragments… but they're hard to piece together.""That's a good start," Sharon said. "It means your memory is showing signs of recovery. Don't rush. The rest of your memories should come back quickly."They had just exchanged a few words when Carter, who was teaching Theo archery, noticed Thomas had returned. A frown creased his forehead."Theo, practice on your own for now. I'll teach you the other techniques in a moment," he said.Theo nodded obediently.Carter then walked toward them. Sharon's expression immediately went cold. Five years of marriage had produced only a handful of outings together. Now divorced, he had free time—yet he chose to appear in front of her constantly, whether needed or not.Seeing him approach, Thomas tactfully said, "Sharon, I'll go help The

Kelly glanced at Carter, only to see his face darken. His gaze toward her grew icy, a silent warning that she had crossed a line.Sharon seemed completely unfazed. She pressed on with a journalist's persistence."When did you first hold hands? Who reached out to whom? After you became a couple, where was your first official date? Did either of you ever prepare any romantic surprises for the other?"Her questions came rapid-fire, leaving Kelly feeling increasingly tense. She could sense that with each inquiry, the air around Carter grew colder, more suffocating. Beads of sweat began to form on her forehead.Sharon was doing this on purpose.If she were acting irrationally, it would be petty, spiteful even. But instead, Sharon played a subtler game—asking pointed questions, drawing Carter's simmering anger toward herself rather than exposing it directly. She was intentionally making him dislike her while leaving Kelly in the crossfire."I… I don't really remember the details from b

Kelly suddenly remembered Thomas's suggestion that she approach Victoria.Had Thomas also noticed Victoria's earrings?Was he testing her? Or did he already know something?Even if Thomas had seen them, it didn't necessarily mean the earrings belonged to Victoria. After all, identical items existed all over the world.Yet, despite this logic, Kelly couldn't shake a sense of unease.Victoria… also played the violin.What if she owned two identical pairs of earrings?Kelly hurriedly explained, "I saw someone wearing these earrings before and liked them very much, so I wanted to buy a pair for myself. When I saw you wearing them that day, I thought I'd buy them right away."Victoria knew that Kelly wasn't telling the truth—and she wouldn't.She fixed her gaze on Kelly and asked again, "Just now, Thomas reacted to my earrings the same way you did that day… Kelly, do you know Thomas?"Kelly had mentally prepared herself. She didn't show panic, only smiled faintly."Yes, I've met

Kelly didn't come to bother Carter either. She wandered about absentmindedly, but no one paid her any attention.After leaving the sports club, Sharon, wanting to avoid further interference from Carter, didn't go anywhere else. She planned to head straight home.Passing by a supermarket, she decided to get out and buy some groceries. As her assistant, Thomas naturally followed along.Carter stayed close behind their car and, seeing this, followed them inside.When it was time to leave, Kelly tried to latch onto Carter's car, only to be rebuffed. For once, she didn't insist; instead, she walked away on her own.Inside the supermarket, Carter saw Sharon pushing the shopping cart, carefully selecting vegetables.Thomas didn't cling to her side but walked behind her with Theo.Theo chatted animatedly with Thomas, occasionally exclaiming, "Amazing!" or "Really?" His usual composed and obedient demeanor had vanished—he was practically a different child.Watching his son be so close a
