Chapter 195 "Dad, Jan, I have something to take care of. Thea, please look after them for me," said Nicolas.
Stefan wasn't happy and pressed a little. "Haven't all the company matters been settled? lan and Winnie call the way from Bangolware. Is there really anything that can't wait until after dinner?" "It's personal. You all go ahead and eat without me, Nicolas said Thea understood immediately. It was almost certainly related to Stephanie. She stepped in to ease the tension. "Don't worry. I'll take good care of them. You can handle your business without any concern." Stefan sighed, his expression complicated. He waved at Nicolas. "Since Thea says so, just go quickly and cback before dinner if you can." On the way out of the villa, Darwin noticed that Nicolas was in a foul mood. Understanding the source of his distress. Darwin spoke up. "Mr. Hendrix, it's my fault that Ms. Ralap followed us from Silvercreek... Ever since the accident, Stephanie had been mentally unstable. Nicolas had returned to Key Biskane, and when she couldn't see him, she would throw fits and even resort to self-harm to get attention.
The caretakers dared not act rashly and could only report up the chain. Out of consideration for Stephanie's brother, Nicolas couldn't just ignore it.
When he returned to Belcrane Villa, Nicolas barely stepped through the door when Stephanie lunged at him, wrapping her arms around him.
Stephanie said, 'Nicolas! I knew you wouldn't abandon me... I don't want to stay in the hospital alone, especially when I can't find you. "I'm so scared! You promised my brother you'd take care of me, so please, can you always bringalong wherever you go!" Nicolas instinctively pushed her away, his voice sharp. "Enough!" With red-rimmed eyes, Stephanie looked at him in disbelief, feigning innocence. The villa fell silent. Everyone in the living room held their breath, the quiet so deep they could hear the wind outside.
After Stephanie's multiple outbursts since returning home, Nicolas had already run out of patience, especially since the last warning had only been given recently. He didn't expect another mess so soon.

Nicolas began. "I promised your brother I would take care of you, but look at what you've done since coming Stephanie, you've started affecting my normal life. "If you keep this up, all the ties we formed because of your brother will be completely worn out." Stephanie, refusing to give in, choked out her response. "During those years abroad, I was always by your side. Don't you understand my feelings? I don't get it. How did everything change just because I was in an accident... Is it because of that mistress?" Hate flickered in her eyes.
Nicolas frowned in dissatisfaction. "Thea is my wife. You should respect her." Stephanie screamed in a fit of hysteria, covering her ears and shouting. "I won't listen! I won't accept this! You promised you'd take care offor my brother. Why are you going back on your word?"If my brother were still alive, he wouldn't treatlike this! Why wasn't you As long as it didn't satisfy Stephanie, she wouldn't listen. Nicolas had had enough of her unreasonable tantrums.

Nicolas said, "I owe your brother a life, but sometimes I really regret it. I regret letting him die for me, and even more so for promising to take care of you at his dying request. Stephanie, I've tolerated you out of gratitude for your brother saving my life, but you are truly unaw Nicolas's expression was indifferent, his magnetic voice chilling Stephanie suddenly felt an ominous premonition and nervously clutched the hem of her shirt. "Nicolas..." "Didn't you just say I should be the one who died back then? If you're willing to end this, I can give my life back to you at any time," he added Darwin stood nearby, both surprised and worried, fearing that if Stephanie lost control, something terrible could happen.
Darwin sympathized with Nicolas, who had been dutiful to Stephanie all these years, only to find himself being morally blackmailed in return.
If Stephanie hadn't been so reckless, Nicolas wouldn't have been driven to this point.
She could have lived comfortably for the rest of her life without any worries or obstacles. But she was too greedy, coveting what didn't belong to her and leveraging kindness without respect.
"You'd rather letkill you than have any more ties with me? Nicolas! You're so heartless..." Stephanie wept uncontrollably. instinctively clutching her chest, as if that would bring her scomfort.
Nicolas didn't respond, turning away wearily, waiting for her decision.
Stephanie trembled as she picked up the fruit knife from the floor, pointing the blade at Nicolas. "Are you really going to force.like this?" Silence was her only answer.
Darwin felt his heart leap into his throat, thinking that if she truly intended to harm Nicolas, he would leap in to restrain her.
But in the next moment, Stephanie twisted the handle of the knife and plunged the blade into herself. The sound of a heavy object falling caught Nicolas's attention. Almost simultaneously, Darwin shouted in shock, "Ms. Ralap!" "Quick! Call a doctor!" Nicolas exclaimed, unusually flustered. He rushed over to check Stephanie's injury and saw blood seeping from her chest, a wound he couldn't stop.
"What are you doing?" he roared Stephanie reached up to touch Nicolas's brow, her lips still curling into a smile. "Nicolas, I knew you were just pretending to be tough. You wouldn't really abandon me... At least you still care about me." Nicolas's expression darkened. "She did this on purpose, he wondered.

"News spreads quickly in Key ve not Biskane, and many rumors have been kind to you. It's hard not to NO know. However, Nicolas has already sent someone to handle it, so you don't need to worry," he said. "It's my fault for causing trouble for the Hendrix family." Thea admitted.
"I'm not here to reprimand you...
Thea, I'll be honest with you. My health is Whatclining, and as you know, what I'm most concerned about now is Nicolas. I hope he can be happy." Stefan said. Thea tightened her grip unconsciously. "I understand. I'll bring up the annulment of the engagement soon to free Mr. Hendrix and avoid putting you in a difficult position." It was tto make a decision regarding the child as well.
Stefan suddenly coughed a few times.
Thea hurried over to help him pat his back until he calmed down.
