Side Chick Era… Over のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1661 - チャプター 1670

Despite Richard's words, Rick knew the truth—Richard had never thought highly of Jamie.Now that Jamie was disabled, there was no way Richard would ever agree to marry Victoria to him.Scott said, "Victoria is probably no longer in Marcentine. With Jamie searching all over the place like this, he's likely accomplishing nothing."Rick replied, "Even if Victoria is probably not in Marcentine, we can't rule out a feint. Having Jamie search the entire country might still be useful."Richard added, "I've spoken to King George many times. He refuses to admit he took Victoria. But I've already assigned someone to keep a close watch on Yuicuador. The moment Victoria shows up there…"A sharp, icy gleam passed through Richard's eyes. "Rick, you coordinate with the Malcolm family, the Walton family, and the Blakely family—go together and demand an explanation from King George."…Meanwhile, in Yuicuador, King George received word from his men that Victoria had been successfully captured al

"Thomas, Sharon… what are you two talking about? Don't tell me you already know who J is?" Wendy asked.Sharon couldn't bring herself to say out loud that J might be Jamie.She spoke softly, "Maybe it's just a coincidence.""Whether it's a coincidence or not, we'll know once we verify it." Thomas looked at Sharon and offered a suggestion. "Why don't you give them a call—or a video call—and see who they really are? The sooner you confirm their identity, the better."Sharon fell silent for a long time before finally nodding."Alright."Though she and J weren't exactly close confidants, after spending this time getting to know each other, they could be considered like-minded friends.They had talked a great deal about painting—different masters, their styles, and techniques.Sharon could clearly feel J's pure, almost reverent love for art.Now she was being told that J might very well be Jamie? The idea felt absurd.Yet, she knew Thomas was right.Confirming J's identity sooner

Sharon lowered her gaze to the hand holding hers. In the end, she didn't pull away.…Although she had long known where Thomas lived, she had never once visited.His current residence was a villa tucked away in a relatively secluded area. There were few people around, yet it sat nestled against the mountains and beside the water, surrounded by breathtaking scenery.Previously, Thomas had stayed with her, and the interior furnishings had all been part of the original house. Sharon had never actually seen his home.Now that she was here, she couldn't help but look around curiously."This is just a temporary place," Thomas said. "Everything inside was prepared rather casually."Even so, Sharon noticed several items that clearly reflected Thomas's personal tastes.Though he claimed it was all done casually, Liam had still arranged the décor and furnishings according to Thomas's aesthetic preferences.Despite his words, Thomas still took Sharon on a brief tour of the villa.Seeing

Jamie fell silent for a long time.As if realizing something, his expression gradually darkened, turning cold and heavy.…The cramped space was filled with a damp, foul stench.Soft, suppressed sobs echoed intermittently beside Victoria's ears, jolting her awake from a hazy stupor.Outside, the sound of water splashing rang out constantly, and beneath it all lingered the unmistakable scent of seawater.Without drawing attention to herself, Victoria carefully surveyed her surroundings and discovered many girls about her age nearby."Where… is this?""How did I end up here?!""Let us out! Let us out right now! Do you know who I am?! How dare you kidnap me! Are you tired of living?!"A beautiful blonde woman, dressed in noticeably expensive clothes, slammed her hands against the door, her voice shrill and domineering."I'm the daughter of Heraclum City's mayor! If my father finds out you took me, he'll have every one of you killed! Release me now! Do you hear me?!"Once someo

Colette waved a hand dismissively. "You'll rest today. I'll explain what comes next tomorrow."With that, Colette turned and left, abandoning the girls to their heart-rending cries.…At dinner, Victoria stared at the food on her tray—something even worse than pig slop—and felt no appetite at all.The sharp crash of something hitting the floor suddenly echoed from nearby.Victoria looked over in silence and saw the blonde mayor's daughter sweep her tray onto the ground, her face dark with fury."Has this tray even been disinfected? It's greasy and filthy—just looking at it makes me sick. How is anyone supposed to eat this?!"Truly a pampered young lady. Even in a place like this, she was still throwing a rich girl's tantrum.The others glanced at her in stunned silence. No one said a word."Heh. Eat it or don't," the man delivering the food sneered. "You'll only get to be arrogant for a few more days. Let's see how tough you are then.""Who do you think you're talking to?!"
