Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle By Danielle Sayers

Chapter 190 94%1 Darwin sighed, feeling a headache coming on. "Miss Rowland, because of the previous friction between you and Ms. Ralap in Key Biskane, staying there would only draw unnecessary attention. That could work against you. After all, the Rowland family is constantly looking "Enough," Thea interrupted impatiently. "Whether he's looking out foror not, I don't care. Let's say he is, and I owe him one. Fine. But I don't like anyone making decisions on my behalf. Even if something happens, I can handle it on my own. I don't need him worrying for me.

"What's his plan? Keepin Key Biskane forever? Why not just strap an ankle monitor onthat blares an alarm the second I set foot outside Silvercreek?" Darwin could hear the frustration in her voice and, somewhat at a loss, turned to look at Nicolas.

Nicolas pinched the bridge of his nose. "The Rowland and Maddox families' wedding is today, and the Hendrix family is attending. Make sure my people take her back. You know what I mean." Darwin nodded immediately. Nicolas was clearly throwing his support behind Thea.

After relaying Nicolas's instructions, Thea responded with a cold. 'So, he knew all along. Then, with a sharp click, she ended the call.

The plane touched down in Key Biskane. Upon exiting the airport, Thea was met by the people Nicolas had arranged to escort her.

Without sparing a moment to change into formal attire, she was filled with urgency, heading straight to the Rowland and Maddox families' wedding venue.

Though annoyed, Thea took a small comfort knowing that, with Nicolas's people there, the Rowland family would hesitate to cause trouble.

"Wait here for Pheton Hotel.

1. me.

If I need I'll call." Thea instructed them before making her way toward the back entrance of the you.

She wanted to find Joyce first and get the full story, all without drawing any attention that might tip anyone off. As Thea slipped into the front courtyard of the hotel, a familiar voice reached her. "Thea! I knew you'd come!" Jake's face lit up, and he clutched her arm with a grip born of desperation, his tired eyes suddenly bright. Knowing that Thea was close to Joyce and that she'd likely show up at Max and Joyce's wedding, Jake had stationed people around the hotel just to see her.

Disgusted. Thea pulled her arm free, her brow furrowing. "Can you show srespect for yourself and stop hounding me?" Jake's face fell, visibly hurt. "Thea, I know you're still upset with me. I've really thought things over, and I know I was wrong before. I just wanted to apologize to you in person, but I couldn't reach you..." "Save your act for Miss Terell. Thea cut in, clearly annoyed, not sparing him even a glance as she turned to leave.

Jake. However, blocked her path, casting a strange look over her. You went out of your way to avoid the front entrance...... You're not here to crash Max's wedding, are you?" That's none of your business, said Thea "Thea, you need to stop being so reckless! Jake stopped her.

09:41 Mon, Nov Chapter 190 Already stressed and anxious to find Joyce, Thea was rapidly losing her patience with Jake's interference.

She e gave him a cold, mocking smile. "Jake, don't you think you're acting a bit ridiculous? You keep claiming you're sincerely regretful and yet here you are, hounding me, sticking your nose into my life."Do you even realize that a good ex should act like they disappear in one Jake did not expect to anger her and was a little flustered. Desperately, he tried to explain. That's not what I meant. Whether you believeor not, I never wanted to marry Madelyn. "You're the one I truly love. Since marrying her, I've been miserable. I consider it my punishment. All I want now is to make it up to you. "You're already on bad terms with your family. If you ruin the Rowland and Maddox families' alliance, things will only worsen. I can't just stand by and watch you make a mistake!" Suddenly. Thea noticed a figure approaching. Madelyn stood there, eyes red with fury, glaring at her as if she wished she could tear her to pieces.

Thea! You're already married to Nicolas, so why are you still meddling in my marriage and clinging to Jake? Are you desperate for a man?" Madelyn roared. Jake's face darkened. "What nonsense are you spouting? And why are you even here?" that "If I hadn't come, were you planning to rekindle your old flame? Tm just trying to protect my marriage Madelyn retorted. her eyes glistening with tears.

Jake, who had grown weary of Madelyn's theatrics long ago, instinctively moved toward Thea to explain himself. But Thea, knowing exactly what he'd do, gave him a sharp slap, stopping him in his tracks. The sudden silence was deafening.

Thea's voice was cold and authoritative as she reprimanded him. I am your uncle Nicolas's lawful wife, which makesyour elder. You are showing such blatant disrespect for your elders and having no discipline and no respect, speaking to your lack of family upbringing. "This slap is a lesson. Keep it in mind, and next time, steer clear of me. I won't tolerate this again." Jake stood frozen, watching her walk away, dumbfounded.

Seizing the moment, Madelyn attempted to console him with her usual sweet facade. "Jake, I told you that only I truly care about you Thea...

Before she could finish, Jake slapped her across the face, channeling all his frustration into the blow. He pulled out his phone, summoning a team of security guards. "Take her home. She is not to leave the Hendrix family residence without my permission" After issuing the command, Jake headed back to the wedding, visibly displeased.

Dragged away, Madelyn looked shocked and betrayed. She dared not say a word to Jake's face but vented her frustration on the guards Om escorting her. After all, no matter how useless Jake was, Madelyn knew her future still depended on him. Fuming as she settled into the car bound for the Hendrix family estate, Madelyn pulled out her phone to send a message. Madelyn: Miss Rowland, as per your instructions, I brought her to the hotel. Are you sure you'll succeed in utterly ruining that woman this time?] Inside the bridal suite, Joyce sat listlessly in her wedding dress, letting the makeup artist work around her as if she were numb to it all 60 Mon, Nov Chapter 190 Emmalic put away her phone and walked up behind her, resting her hands on Joyce's shoulders with a taunting smile. Just then, Thea's call cthrough. Joyce's lingers twitched slightly but hesitated to answer

"Well, what's it going to be?" Emmalie's voice was lazy as she toyed with a strand of Joyce's hair. "Choosing freedom and happiness for the rest of your life or clinging to schildish idea of friendship? I trust that you know which is wiser." Trembling with dread, Joyce finally picked up the call. Thea's voice cthrough, laced with concern. "Joyce, I'm at the Pheton Hotel. Which room are you in? Let's meet." Staring into the mirror at Emmalie's sinister smile, Joyce's breathing hitched. "I'll have someone bring you here." Joyce hung up. Thea couldn't shake a sense that something was off. Still, she thought, she'd see Joyce soon enough, and everything would make sense.

In no time, a man in a black baseball cap appeared to escort her to the elevator. Following behind him, Thea's eyes caught a glimpse of a dark tattoo on his neck, and her instincts immediately kicked in.

"What's Corey's man doing here?' she wondered. With a heavy heart, Thea decided to bide her time.
