Side Chick Era... Over

Chapter 743

When Theo finally left, he showed a deep reluctance to part with Thomas.

During the days he stayed with Sharon, Theo would spend every morning playing with Thomas. To him, Thomas seemed like a magician straight out of a fairy tale-able to accomplish anything he asked. There was nothing Thomas couldn’t do.

He enjoyed their time together so much that, when it was time to eat, he invited Thomas to have meals at Sharon’s place. Sharon didn’t refuse; on the contrary, she welcomed him warmly.

After Theo returned home, Sharon threw herself back into the competition. In the individual round-robin, she was unstoppable. Her score was far ahead of the others.

Kelly, though she lost once to Sharon, won all her subsequent matches. Online popularity polls also put Kelly firmly in first place.

As a contestant who had been controversial from the start and fighting against her own limitations, Kelly’s performance did not disappoint. After all, even “sick” Kelly had managed to score second place. Imagine her peak condition-her power would be terrifying. She was even hyped as a top favorite for the championship, with more public support than Sharon herself.

Wendy frowned. “What nonsense is this? Kelly clearly isn’t skillful enough, yet they say her illness affected her performance, and somehow she ‘picked up’ a championship… Picked up a championship? Is that even a thing? Even her concert tickets are being scalped. The last presale sold out in three minutes flat.”

Hearing this, Sharon smiled. “Wendy, get some more boosters and create more hype for Kelly,”

Wendy’s eyes widened. “You want to boost her popularity too? What if, by the time you win the championship, she-the runner-up-gets more attention than you?”

The strengths of the contestants had already been evaluated by Wendy and John. Kelly taking second place was no surprise.

Sharon smiled faintly. “Wendy, you know the saying: the higher you stand, the harder you fall. Didn’t you also point out issues with her concert ticket sales and her online popularity data?”

Wendy nodded. “In the industry, behavior like hers isn’t uncommon. It’s easy to spot.
