Fiancé Uncle 105 Chapter 105 Stephanie took a picture of herself sitting in the main seat of Nicolas office.
In the background. Nicolas was working on his laptop on the sol and there was a flower pot in the frame.
Stephanie: I was sick today, and he didn't have tto visitbut he specially boughtflowers. I'm going to confess my feelings to him soon, though I haven't prepared the gift yet. I think it'll definitely work.] Thea didn't respond right away. Instead, she stared at the photo for a long time, long enough for her eyes to sting.
Thea blinked and snapped out of it, looking again at Stephanie's message, which made her heart ache. Thea typed a response, then deleted it. Finally, she took a deep breath and sent a brief message. [You'll definitely succeed. I'm heading to bed now, good night.I Stephanie smugly put away her phone, though a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
"I thought she'd be a tougher opponent, but it turns out she's just pretty on the outside, yet so spineless, Stephanie thought.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Stephanie still hadn't figured out the exact nature of the relationship between Nicolas and Thea It's probably just one-sided from Thea. I refuse to believe Nicolas would be interested in another woman. I just wonder what tricks she used to get Nicolas to care so much. But none of that matters anymore, Stephanie mused.
Stephanie picked up the bouquet from the desk and walked toward Nicolas. "Nicolas, I know I upset you today, but I was really scared, scared that something was wrong with my health. I'm the only one left in this world, and if I don't take care of myself, my brother in heave Hearing her mention her brother, Nicolas' expression softened. He lifted his head, his gaze falling on the flowers in Stephanie's hand Seizing the moment, Stephanie spoke. "I remember these are your favorite flowers. I passed by a florist and bought them just for you. Nicolas, don't ignore me, or I'll be really sad." "Have your test r results cback yet? What did the doctor say?" he asked.
Stephanie's eyes dimmed, and she feigned nervousness. "The doctor said everything's fine, probably just exhaustion and poor eating lately, which caused the sudden stomach pain. Nicolas, you're always busy too. I think you need to get a check-up, especially a full- body exam." Nicolas narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning serious. "Stephanie, tellthe truth. How are your test results? Is something wrong?" Stephanie shook her head repeatedly. "No problem, really, no problem at all. I'm perfectly healthy. Look at me. I'm full of energy every day." Nicolas eyes were filled with meaning, sensing something off in Stephanie's mood He shifted his gaze. "You're tired today. I'll have Darwin take you home. There's no need for you to csee me." Stephanie's smile froze on her face. "Nicolas, letstay with you longer. Besides, I still have something important I want to say to you. Why are you in such Nicolas detected the unusual tone in her voice and calmly avoided her touch, his voice growing colder. "Go hand rest. It's my responsibility to take care of you, just as I promised your brother. Now, go back." 1/3 19:51 Mon, Oct 28 Chapter 103 With a single sentence, Nicolas clarified the nature of their relationship.

But seeing the impatience in Nicolas' eyes, she reluctantly stood up. Tll csee you again next time." 100% Nicolas didn't even look up. "It's best if you cto the office less often. If people see us, it won't be good. There were rumors online about us before, and we should avoid being seen together in public to prevent more gossip. It could make things difficult for you when you "But I..." Stephanie's voice becurgent.
Before she could finish, Nicolas interrupted. "Darwin is already downstairs. Go hand rest early" Stephanie bit her lower lip in frustration but had no choice but to turn and leave.
r phone rang.
While in the elevator, her phone rang.
It was the doctor calling. "Ms. Ralap, Mr. Hendrix just asked for your test results. Should I show him the report?" Stephanie curled her lips into a smug smile upon hearing the doctor's words. She knew Nicolas still cared about her the most. "Give him the report, and make sure to exaggerate my condition. Don't say anything else." П The doctor's voice trembled with unease. "Ms. Ralap, I must remind you again. Mr. Hendrix is a sharp man. If he decides to investigate, he will undoubtedly find out the truth. If he discovers we're deceiving him. I'm scared. Please, I'm just an ordinary person. Maybe we should think of another way?" Stephanie's expression twisted into something sinister, her eyes filled with malice. "It's too late to regret now. I still have the fake medical report you made. Even if you refuse to tell Nicolas, I will personally inform him. But if that happens, you'll be in trouble. You can either o us, your choice. Besides, once I marry Nicolas, you'll surely benefit The doctor, drenched in cold sweat, resignedly nodded. "Undersinod, Ms. Ralap. Don't worry. 111 make sure Mr. Hendrix, doesn't suspect a thing." Thea tried to force herself to sleep, but no matter how hard she closed her eyes, sleep wouldn't come. Her mind raced uncontrollably.
'By now, Stephanie has surely confessed and succeeded. What are they doing now? Celebrating together? Nicolás probably won't be coming back tonight, she wondered.
The sudden sound of knocking startled Thea. She sat up, staring intently at the door.
The knocking continued. It wasn't her imagination.

She opened her mouth, instinctively wanting to ask about Stephanie, but swallowed the words back down I have no right to ask. Asking wouldn't change the outcome, and it would only humiliate me, she thought.
Feigning drowsiness, she replied in a sleepy tone, "I was already asleep and didn't hear the knocking. Mr. Hendrix, do you need something?
"The doctor prescribed smedication for you. I noticed you didn't take it, so I cto remind you e I to take before sleeping. Nicolas said, knocking on the door again. "If you're not up to opening the door, I'll just hang the bag on the IIVE, VUI ZU Chapter 105 doorknob. Don't forget to take the medicine" Thea's heart fluttered, warmth spreading uncontrollably from her chest to her limbs.
She clenched her hands tightly, reminding herself not to harbor any inappropriate thoughts.
She listened as Nicolas' footsteps faded down the hallway, and only then did she quietly get out of bed.
She retrieved the medicine from outside her door, and before going back inside, she glanced at the master bedroom.
The lights were still on inside.
"Why didn't he stay out with Stephanie tonight? Have they conlied their relationship yet? When will he bring up the divorce?" One question after another weighed down on Thea, suffocating her. Any trace of sleep vanished. 'It's inevitable. Whatever's coming will ceventually, she sighed inwardly in the end. SEND GIFT
