Side Chick Era Over (Sharon and Carter) novel Chapter 1075

Sharon nodded. “Mhm. There’s an important contract to be signed tonight.”

Thomas’s expression was cool. “Is that so? I thought that now that you have Enzo, you wouldn’t need me anymore.”

The remark caught her off guard–it sounded almost… strange.

“Nonsense!” she replied. “You and Enzo are completely different.”

His dark eyes lingered on her face. “Different? We both work for you. How are we not the same?”

Sharon froze. She hadn’t actually considered that before, and for a moment, she couldn’t think of how to answer.

Just then, a soft knock broke the silence.

Enzo’s voice came from outside. “Ms. McKinzie, I have an urgent document that requires your review.”

Sharon called back, “Wait for me in my office. I’ll be there shortly.”

“Got it.” His footsteps faded down the corridor.

Once he was gone, Sharon turned back to Thomas. “Thomas, don’t overthink it. You saved my life. You’re the person I trust most. No matter what happens, Enzo will never be more important than you.”

Thomas’s face didn’t so much as flicker. “Julliard also saved your life. Is he important too?”

Sharon frowned. Something about Thomas today felt… off.

But she didn’t have time to dwell on it. The urgent document awaited her attention, and the evening’s signing was fast approaching.

“Thomas, both you and Julliard have helped me a great deal,” she said gently. “You’re both equally important friends to me. I really have to go now, but I’ll call you before we leave tonight.”

With that, she turned and hurried out of the room.

Thomas watched her go, his gaze dark and cold.

Lately, she’d been so busy that their time together had dwindled to almost nothing. And when they did speak, Enzo always seemed to show up moments later with some file or report.

It had happened more times than he could count.

A familiar edge crept back into his chest–a sharp, simmering resentment he hadn’t felt in a long time. 1

That night, Sharon arrived punctually at the upscale entertainment club.

Enzo accompanied her as usual, sitting beside her in the back seat, calmly briefing her on the contract’s key points and potential pitfalls.

Thomas drove in silence, his expression unreadable, his quietness heavier than usual.

+25 BONUS

This was Sharon’s first time signing a major business contract, and she treated it with utmost seriousness. They arrived a full thirty minutes early.

Enzo said, “The other company can’t compare to Kalen Group’s scale, of course, but given our current situation, this deal could bring us back to life. If we secure it, the company could stay afloat for the next three years, even without new projects.”

Sharon understood the weight of it and nodded. “I see.”

When they entered the private lounge, the representatives from the other company were already waiting.

One of the men rose with a smile. “Sharon, it’s an honor. I’m Miles Silverstone.”
