Side Chick Era Over (Sharon and Carter) novel Chapter 739

Chapter 739

“I’m not entirely sure… maybe it’s just some ridiculous case of mistaken identity. But none of that matters. If they have ulterior motives, sooner or later their true colors will show. Whoever loses their composure first is the loser. All we need to do is wait quietly, “Victoria said.

When Kelly returned, she saw Thomas already riding and competing with Theo in horseback archery.

Thomas’s skill far surpassed Johanna’s.

Theo looked at Thomas with awe that was impossible to conceal, his admiration practically radiating from him.

Kelly felt a chill run through her.

She had put so much effort into gaining Theo’s favor.

Thomas, on the other hand, had managed to captivate Theo after just a few encounters. And just now, Thomas had deliberately sent her to greet Victoria.

What was the meaning behind that? Was it suspicion? Or just a casual move?

With Thomas, Kelly didn’t dare entertain even the slightest hope.

She wanted to ask him, but he was glued to Theo’s side, leaving her no chance.

Anxiety gnawed at her. She didn’t even have the energy to hassle Carter. Carter could wait-he was always available.

But without Thomas’s help, it would be like cutting off both her arms.

Thomas was dangerous, yes, but the assistance he offered was concrete. Without him, she could never have kept her “illness” hidden for so long.

Nearby, Sharon noticed Kelly hadn’t gone over to bother Carter. Instead, she was moving relentlessly closer to Theo.

She raised an eyebrow and teased, “Carter, your beloved Kelly might be shifting her affections elsewhere.”

It was obvious Kelly’s attention had been entirely on Thomas.

Her intentions? Unknown.

But given Kelly’s habit of flaunting her charm while neither fully accepting nor rejecting, perhaps she was just testing the waters.

Carter’s gaze darkened slightly. He still hadn’t figured out how to push Thomas away from Sharon.

But Kelly’s actions gave him an idea.

She constantly clung to him, making Sharon misunderstand his intentions. Thomas, with his own hidden motives, was approaching Sharon.

Why not… let them occupy each other?

The thought crossed his mind for only a moment before he immediately dismissed it.

The tactic was far too underhanded.

What if Kelly didn’t like Thomas? That would put her in danger.

He couldn’t let his selfish desires endanger Kelly. Even if someone needed to keep an eye on her, his first choice would be Nate-not the unpredictable Thomas.

Yes, if Kelly got involved with someone else, she wouldn’t be thinking about him all the time.

Seeing Carter silent for so long, Sharon glanced toward him.

His eyes were fixed on the direction of Kelly and Thomas, deep and fathomless-not a gaze of tenderness, but one that sent a chill through the body.

It was the look of someone quietly plotting mischief.

For the rest of the day, Thomas didn’t stick to Sharon’s side to assert his presence. He remained fully devoted to playing various sports with Theo.

By the end of the day, he had completely won over the boy, even arranging to play together again next time.

Sharon finally witnessed Thomas’s astonishing athletic talent firsthand.

Carter’s expression darkened.

No matter how careful he had been, he hadn’t been able to prevent Thomas from showing off like a resplendent peacock.

Carter looked on with disdain and contempt. In his eyes, Thomas was no different from a male escort at an entertainment club, pandering to women.
