Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle By Danielle Sayers

Fiancé Uncle 170 Chapter 170 Max barely managed to suppress the urge to hurl the phone away. "What on earth have you been doing? Didn't I instruct you to keep a close watch on her?" Lawyers were like ticking tbombs. If Thea managed to conceal one, they could stab them in the back at any moment.

The person on the other end was equally helpless. "Mr. Rowland, there was really nothing we could do. Miss Rowland was just too swift. By the twe realized what was happening, the person had already been sent off." He didn't dare to admit that Thea now had the backing of the Hendrix family. How could they possibly prevail against Nicolas? Max gritted his teeth and hung up the phone, then dialed Thea's number again.

As soon as the call connected, he couldn't wait to interrogate. "Was it you who sent him away? Initially, I made it abundantly clear to you that I could lend him to you, but you were not allowed to relocate him. Thea, what do you think you're doing?" On the other end of the line, Thea let out a light chuckle, seemingly ridiculing his naivete.

"Max, he's a human being, not an inanimate object. What do you mean by 'lending'? He helped me, and all he had was a small aspiration to emigrate overseas. Am I not supposed to assist him in fulfilling that? Why? Now that you know I've sent him away, are you getting a worked up because you're afraid I'll discover something?" Max clenched his fists tightly, a sense of desolation creeping into his heart.

"Thea, I had actually thought that we could coexist peacefully in the future." Thea hung up immediately upon hearing this, not even bothering to respond.

Peaceful coexistence? What a preposterous joke.

She hadn't launched a furious revenge on them yet simply because she was in a rather good mood at the moment.

She had long been pushed to the opposing side by them, step by step. They had brought this upon themselves; there was no one else to blame.

Thea put away her phone. By this time, she had already reached the entrance of the restaurant.

According to the appointed time, Nicolas should have shown up, However, for sinexplicable reason, there was no sign of him.

Just as she was hesitating, holding her phone in her hand, she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps.

Looking up, it was actually Stephanie Ralap.

Thea frowned, initially intending to pretend not to have noticed However, Stephanie had a clear objective and walked straight up to her.

"Miss Rowland." This time, there was no trace of a gentle smile on Stephanie's face. Her eyes were somewhat chilly. "Perhaps, I need to have a serious talk with you." 1/4 09:53 Sat, Nov 2 Chapter 170 Thea had no such inclination. She simply offered a faint smile.

"I'm truly so I don't have the ttoday. I have an appointment." 96%1 Stephanie raised an eyebrow. "I'm aware that you were supposed to have dinner with Nicolas. But I regret to inform you that he won't be able to make it today." Thea's heart skipped a beat. If it had been any other woman uttering these words provocatively to her, she would naturally have been skeptical.

However, the person standing before her was different. It was Stephanie.

She held a special place in Nicolas's heart.

Thea suddenly felt a twinge of disappointment. She truly felt that she should never have harbored any hope.

Her heart gradually cooled down, and the look she gave Stephanie becmuch icier.

"In that case, I need to go back and rest. If you insist on having a chat, perhaps we can do it another day." To her surprise, after taking just a few steps, she was once again blocked by Stephanie.

Behind her were the bodyguards dispatched by Nicolas.

When they witnessed this scene, none of them stepped forward to intervene.

Thea didn't even need to doubt that if she and Stephanie were to encounter any danger, these bodyguards would rus.. save her first, rather than Stephanie herself. After all, their attitude was a reflection of Nicolas's stance.

Thea's expression grew even more unsightly.

Instead, Stephanie smiled smugly and made a gesture inviting her to proceed.

Thea had no choice but to follow her upstairs.

Stephanie seemed to be in a rather good mood as she leisurely poured coffee for her.

"Ms. Ralap, if you have something to say, please just cout with it. I'm really quite busy." Stephanie let out a sigh, looking somewhat helpless. "Actually, Miss Rowland, when I first met you, I truly admired someone like you. I thought you were beautiful, gracious, and quite remarkable. I felt that we could have becfriends." "But," she sighed softly, a barely perceptible trace of rancor in her eyes. "You just had to betrayand snatch the man I had my eye on." Thea suddenly found her words rather absurd and patiently explained. "Ms. Ralap, my marriage to Mr. Hendrix wasn't something I forced upon him. He entered into it willingly.

"Moreover, between the two of you, there wasn't even a relationship of an engaged couple, let alone that of a couple, right? "Under such circumstances, if someone wants to engage in a free relationship with him, that person can't be considered to have committed a cardinal sin." This statement struck a nerve, hitting the raw wound in Stephanie's heart.

She sprang to her feet and slammed her palm down hard on the table in front of Thea.

09:53 Sat, Nov 2 Chapter 170 The sweet smile vanished from her face, and her beautiful eyes were filled with malevolence.

Q 96% She glared at Thea with a fierce intensity, like a venomous snake lurking in the dark. Her gaze was cold and menacing, as if attempting to entwine around her and drag her into the abyss.

"Thea, what do you mean? Are you trying to tellthat the person in Nicolas's heart is you? Are you trying to tellthat he chose you and wantsto disappear? However, when I met him, you had just been driven out by your family and were living on the streets. He and you are from completely different worlds." Thea felt a pang in her heart. "Why do you know so much about my affairs?" Stephanie smiled, her words somewhat ambiguous. "If Nicolas knows about something, is it so strange that I do too?" Thea grasped the general meaning.

This was to imply that it was Nicolas who had told her about these embarrassing past events of hers.

Thea suddenly felt a sense of discomfort. She couldn't even begin to imagine under what circumstances Nicolas had divulged these things to Stephanie.

Perhaps he had merely sympathized with her plight and regarded her as a pitiful figure.

His protection over the past few days had almost caused her to lose her composure again.

How could Nicolas possibly have genuine feelings for her? His assistance and pity towards her were nothing more than a form of condescension towards a pitiable soul.

Closing her eyes, she managed to rein in the tumultuous emotions welling up inside her.

When she opened her eyes again, she looked at Stephanie, who wore a faint smile that was not quite a smile, and my reiterated. "I simply want to inform you that my marriage to Nicolas is N legal and legitimate. You don't have to act as if I'm ssort of interloper. "If your relationship with him is truly good, he will naturally ctoto discuss the matter of divorce. When that tcomes, I will surely agree. So there's no need for you to clooking for trouble with me." Stephanie's face darkened. "You're impervious to both persuasion and coercion." She rummaged through her bag and finally retrieved a diagnostic sheet.

Thea found it rather amusing when she saw the piece of white paper.

"Ms. Ralap, are you trying to use your illness to morally blackmailinto leaving again? I don't think so at all..." Before she could finish her sentence, Thea clearly saw the contents on the sheet, and her face immediately turned ashen. Her body swayed unsteadily.

Nicolas finally completed the task at hand.

Looking at the time, he realized that half an hour had already passed since the the had agreed to have dinner with Thea.

His face instantly darkened as he called out loudly, "Where's Darwin?!" Darwin rushed in hurriedly. "Mr. Hendrix, what's the matter?" Nicolas rubbed his temples. "Why didn't anyone remind me? I got so caught up in my work." 09:53 Sat, Nov 2 Chapter 170

Darwin explained, "Mr. Hendrix, according to the rule you set previously, if you're occupied with something urgent, all other matters are postponed. Actually, Ms. Ralap also cto look for you just now. I sent her away." Nicolas let out a soft sigh. "Change the rule. Thea is an exception" He stood up. "Tell her I'll be right there." 96%%

Darwin nodded and, while making a phone call, asked, "By the way, Mr. Hendrix, Ms. Ralap said she hadm something urgent to talk to you about. I saw her looking completely distraught and crying. I'm afraid something might really be wrong. Do you wantto go and find out what's goi
