Side Chick Era Over (Sharon and Carter) novel Chapter 1053

Silas looked at Lex. "When will Victoria's injury be fully healed?"

Lex replied, "According to my elder brother, two weeks."

Silas and Scott relaxed at once.

But Victoria shook her head. "No."

Everyone turned to her.

Her pale face was set with determination. "I start working at the Kalen Group next week. I don't want to delay the job."

Jamie frowned. "It's only a week. If you need time to prove yourself, I can give you a few more orders."

Lex wasn't to be outdone. "Victoria, rest and recover. People and resources aren't a problem."

Silas and Scott nodded in agreement. They could offer Victoria almost as much support as Lex and Jamie could.

Victoria shook her head again. "No. I want to rely on myself."

They were about to press her further when she changed the subject.

She turned to Jamie. "Jamie, I heard Johanna was kidnapped. Have they found her yet?"

Jamie's expression darkened; the memory of Johanna tugged at him. He answered in a hoarse voice, "They're still looking."

"Jamie," Victoria said, "I'm fine now. You don't need to stay here with me. Johanna is more important."

Jamie hesitated, then nodded. "Alright. I'll come back to see you later."
