Side Chick Era... Over

Loving Mom 367

Chapter 367

Ever since Nate went head-to-head with Sharon, things had only gone downhill for him.

If not for the fact that he was the heir of the Hendricks family-and for Carter’s help-he would’ve been done for a long time

ago.

It wasn’t until Carter pointed it out that Nate finally snapped back to reality. Compared to those so-called “brothers” of his, Carter mattered far more.

He was just bitter that Sharon had openly threatened, right in front of them last night, to expose his little clique. And the worst part? She really did it. By the next morning, it was all over the internet.

Still, no matter how pissed he was, he didn’t want this to affect Carter or the company. Nate wasn’t that stupid. He knew how to weigh the pros and cons.

“I’m sorry, Carter,” Nate admitted, lowering his voice. “I wasn’t thinking straight. I just didn’t want their mess dragging you into it. That’s why I asked you to take it off the trending list.”

Carter’s voice was ice. “If you don’t want their mess tied to us, then don’t take it down. We’re doing the opposite. We’ll issue a public statement. Draw a clear line between us and them.”

Nate nodded immediately. “Got it. I’ll get someone on it right now.”
