Side Chick Era Over (Sharon and Carter) novel Chapter 610

Chapter 610

Sharon glanced at Carter, surprised. “You know about engines?”

Carter replied, “I used to race for a few years when I was younger.”

Racing was forever a man’s greatest passion-no exceptions.

From what Sharon knew, all three of her older brothers raced. She had even seen Richard’s trophies and photos from his youth in his study, proof of his victories on the track.

The Kalen family’s estate was filled with cars in Richard’s garage, like an extravagant auto show-excessive to the point of absurdity.

Rick, Silas, and Scott also had garages that resembled museums with their numerous vehicles.

Compared to them, Victoria’s collection was smaller but outfitted with only the finest.

It seemed racing ran in the Kalen bloodline, a gene inherited from Richard himself.

Sharon had once thought she disliked it, but after some training, she had to admit how powerful genetics were.

Still, between violin and racing, her heart belonged to the violin most of all.

Hearing Carter’s answer, Sharon didn’t press further.

But Carter was being unusually talkative. “You know about cars too?”

His “knowing cars” clearly meant racing.

“Just a little,” Sharon said.

Carter recalled the rainy day when her car stalled and she inspected the engine. At first, he thought she was just casually looking and probably didn’t understand much.

Now it seemed she was far more skilled than he had imagined.

He glanced at Sharon.

Qutside, streetlights cast dappled shadows. Her delicate profile, shrouded in dim light, felt unfamiliar-like a stranger sitting

beside him.

She spoke multiple foreign languages, played the violin, raced cars…

What other talents of hers didn’t he know about?

Unaccountably, Carter felt a fresh wave of curiosity and surprise toward her, as if he had just uncovered a hidden treasure.

He asked again, “Why have you never told me any of this?”

Sharon’s hand resting on the steering wheel paused slightly.

After a moment, she said, “Did you ever ask?”

Carter thought of their five-year marriage-he had been so busy with work that they hardly communicated.

His voice was hoarse. “Then why didn’t you bring it up yourself?”

Sharon almost laughed.

“You never cared much, even about Theo. Would you really want to listen to anything else?”

She had spoken more with his assistant Simon on the phone than with Carter himself.

Carter was silent for a few seconds. “I’m sorry.”

But his apology stirred no ripple or wave within Sharon.

They hadn’t been divorced long, yet it felt like a lifetime apart.

The anguish, the restless nights-those seemed far away from her current life. She could hardly recall the pain she once felt.

Sharon wasn’t sure if that was healing or simply forgetting the hurt.

But she was a woman who held grudges.

Suddenly, she said, “Doesn’t Kelly race?”

Sharon rarely stirred up trouble, but in that moment, spite welled up inside her.

She couldn’t let Carter and Kelly have it so easy.

Carter said, “Kelly isn’t well. She rarely does intense exercise.”

Sharon raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Was she already unwell when you two were dating back then?”

“Yeah, she was often sick then.”

A bitter smile crossed Sharon’s face.

That was probably just another excuse to stay close to Carter.

Kelly’s tactics never failed.

In the past, Sharon wouldn’t have wanted to hear anything related to Kelly. But now that she’d lost feelings for Carter, she didn’t mind him mentioning Kelly at all.

She wanted to know as much as possible about her enemy to deliver an ultimate crushing blow.

Sharon asked, “I heard Kelly mention several times that you both first met while she was practicing the violin in the backyard?”
