Thomas asked with mild curiosity, "Who is this person who's been constantly going against Victoria?"A cold, vicious light flashed in Samantha's eyes. "That person is Victoria's half-sister—Sharon!"Thomas's sword-like brows lifted slightly, as if puzzled."Sharon? But isn't she Victoria's family? Why would she harm Victoria?"Samantha let out a cold laugh. "They're born from different mothers. You could hardly call them family."Thomas countered, "But as far as I know, Victoria and the three Kalen brothers are also half-siblings. And their relationship doesn't seem bad."Samantha was about to say it was all pretense when Thomas spoke again."Could it be that Victoria never actually treated them as family?"Victoria immediately interjected, "No, that's not it. Samantha misunderstood. Between Sharon and me, it's just some minor misunderstandings."Samantha was not entirely brainless. She quickly adjusted her expression.If Victoria were also said to be faking her relationship

Even someone as slow to react as Samantha could tell that Thomas was mocking her.Her face flushed red with anger. Several times she tried to retort, but no words came to her.Thomas, however, paid her no further attention and turned his gaze to Victoria."Victoria, I admire the person who played that violin piece. That's why I was willing to grant them a wish. But that doesn't mean I'm here to be taken advantage of like a fool."I've heard of the term 'moral coercion,' but I never expected that simply passing by and casually listening to a piece of music would land me in it. Your request is far too unreasonable. I'm afraid I can't agree."With that, he stood."My apologies for taking up so much of your time. Just pretend I was never here. Until we meet again."He turned and walked toward the door.The expressions on Victoria's and Samantha's faces changed at the same time.They hadn't expected Thomas to leave so decisively.Victoria immediately stood and stepped in front of

Samantha's expression softened a little. "But… I really pushed Thomas's buttons just now, and he didn't seem very happy. Do you think he might suspect something?"Victoria replied, "The token I have was taken from Sharon's room—there's no way anything could go wrong. He won't suspect a thing. As for why I didn't stop you…"She smiled faintly. "I actually wanted to test whether Thomas has really lost his memory. If he hasn't, that would be far more dangerous than him simply refusing to help us."Thomas helped Sharon in the past because he liked her, not because he liked that piece of music. We've only just met him. If he agrees so quickly to help us deal with the family head, wouldn't you find that strange?"Samantha couldn't help but sigh in admiration. "Victoria, your mind really works fast… But do you think Thomas will see us as ruthless?"Victoria said calmly, "Thomas's feelings for Sharon have nothing to do with good or evil. He wouldn't start liking her just because she's kin

Logically speaking, after so many years, one's skill should only improve—not decline.Victoria was used to receiving admiration and praise from men whenever she went on dates.When had she ever been belittled like this?Though Thomas's words were tactful, she still felt her pride sting. After all, she had always been the top student—the kind of natural genius everyone admired.In a lowered voice, she said, "I have a wide range of interests. To be honest, I'm not that fond of the violin. After I injured my hand, I hardly touched it again."A flicker of interest appeared in Thomas's eyes. "Then aside from the violin, what other hobbies do you have?""I also enjoy painting and racing," Victoria replied. "I'll be holding an exhibition soon. If you're interested, you're welcome to come.""Sounds good," Thomas said.From her seat behind them, Sharon watched the two chatting pleasantly, and the sight grated on her nerves.She was no longer the meek, silent girl she used to be. A dark

Thomas said, "However, since you went to such trouble to come tell me all this, I can't very well let you make the trip for nothing."Sharon's spirits lifted at once. She looked up at Thomas.He lowered his gaze to her and smiled. "In a bit, Victoria and I are going racing. Would you like to come along and watch?"At that, Sharon immediately shook off her earlier disappointment. "All right."Thomas took out his phone and called Victoria."I have something to attend to later. Can we move up our plans?"Before answering the call, Victoria had been worried he might not come back after leaving. Hearing this, she relaxed instead.Her voice was soft and gentle. "Of course, no problem. I'll make the arrangements right away.""Come find me at the entrance when you're done," Thomas said.Naturally, Victoria agreed. "Okay."After hanging up, the two of them waited by the entrance.Sharon had originally had many things she wanted to say to Thomas, but now she realized she didn't know w
