Side Chick Era... Over

Chapter 894

While Silas and Scott suffered relentless ridicule, Richard fared no better.

Though he remained in Zachemaine and no one confronted him face-to-face, his phone had not stopped ringing for days.

Some callers demanded to know if the rumors online were true.

Some laughed, teasing that his romantic exploits hadn’t dulled with age.

Others marveled at how well he had hidden the truth all these years.

The voices varied, but the intent was the same-most wanted to watch him squirm.

Enraged, Richard finally shut his phone off altogether.

The Kalen family had become a circus act in a public zoo, mocked and dissected at will.

Casting a glance at Rick, who looked equally grim, Richard demanded, “When is Sharon coming back?”

Rick checked the time. “Her flight should be landing soon. She’ll be here any minute.”
