Side Chick Era Over (Sharon and Carter) novel Chapter 640

Chapter 640 

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. 1 

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 her head once more. 

“Carter has been growing colder toward me lately. I… I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. He said after the concert, he wouldn’t care about me anymore. Even when I’ve been pretending to be sick, he hasn’t come to see me.” 

She could only deliberately burn her hand to win Carter’s sympathy and try to reclaim his affection. (1) 

Thomas listened expressionlessly. “Kelly, do you know why you’re losing?” 

Kelly asked bitterly, “Because I don’t have Sharon’s background or the people to help me?” 1 

Though Sharon hadn’t returned to the Kalen family yet, she was basically no different from an heiress now. 

No wonder Ginny refused to help her. Ginny’s fiancé was from the Kalen family. Why would Ginny support her? 

Indeed, what could happen if she discovered? Thomas was the head of the Ferrero family. Sharon couldn’t hurt him. 

The reason Thomas could be near Sharon without anyone noticing was because hardly anyone outside of his family knew what he looked like. Though the Ferrero family knew, no one dared speak out without his order. 

If Thomas gathered useful intelligence, they gained an advantage. If not, they lost nothing. 

Yet, for some reason, Kelly didn’t want Thomas to have any contact with Sharon. 

Then, Thomas shifted tone. “During this time by Sharon’s side, I haven’t been wasting my time. I’ve actually discovered something interesting.” 

Kelly hurriedly asked, “What is it?” 

Thomas gave a faint, knowing smile. “Kelly, haven’t you noticed that Julliard has been secretly helping Sharon all along?” 

Kelly froze. She was first surprised, then her expression darkened steadily.
