Fiancé Uncle 94 Chapter 94 Thea couldn't deny that Madelyn and Emmalie's tactics, while disgusting, were undeniably effective.
Emmalie's face had turned pale with anger.
Seizing the moment, Thea waved the doctor inside.
But Emmalie refused to be examined, dodging the doctor's hand. "No need for that. I just had a little low blood sugar. I'm feeling much better now." Thea let out a light laugh. "Wow, looks like the doctor I called is so good that Emmalie's condition cleared up before he even started." With so many people around, Emmalie had to keep her composure.
Clenching her jaw, she took a seat near Nicolas. "Nicolas, if I feel unwell again, can I just call you for help?" Throughout the entire interaction, Nicolas hadn't spared her even a glance.
Instead, he checked his w watch. "I've got other matters to attend to. Let's get the truth out of him quickly. If he still refuses to be honest, you might as well hand him over to me. I'll take care of it." of course, had no objections.

His piercing gaze made Thea look away, lowering her head. "Mr. Hendrix, if you're willing to step in and help, I'd be honored." Nicolas, catching t the avoidance and distance in her eyes, narrowed his own slightly. "Alright." With that, he signaled for his team to leave.
calling after him. "Mr. Hendrix!" Emmalie was starting to panic, As calm and gentle as ever, he adjusted his glasses. "We appreciate your willingness to help, Mr. Hendrix. The Rowland family is grateful. But it might be best to handle this internally. Family matters should remain within the family. I hope you understand." Nicolas' lips curled into a slight smirk. "Are you saying the Rowland family will investigate this thoroughly, Mr. Rowland?" Max's expression darkened a little, but he forced a smile. "Of course." Nicolas nodded and glanced at Thea as he left.
Thea understood the unspoken message in his eyes and sighed softly.
'Sthings can't be avoided,' she thought.

Thea chuck chuckled. "Mom, that's not fair. I wasn't the one pushing things. Mr. Hendrix insisted on a full investigation. If you're upset, you should take it up with him. Or maybe, when I see him next, I can let him know how you feel. I will tell him you think he's meddling in family business. How does that sound?" Ivy coughed angrily, knowing full well she would never dare to say such a thing to Nicolas.
Ivy couldn't help but wonder why someone like Nicolas would take the tto involve himself in the Rowland family affairs today.
It crossed her mind that Thea might be connected to Nicolas somehow, but she quickly dismissed it.
There was no way Thea could have that kind of influence. It had to be just a coincidence.
a With a glare, Ivy stormed off, leaving Thea alone.
Thea made her way outside and noticed a familiar car parked by the curb.
After a moment's hesitation, she got in.
Nicolas was sitting inside with his eyes closed, fingers tapping lightly on his knee. When he heard Thea get in, he stopped Thea turned her face away, unable to meet his gaze, staring out the window instead.
The atmosphere in in the car was somewhat tense.
It wasn't until Nicolas suddenly spoke that the silence was broken. "What are your thoughts on what happened last night?" Thea's hands cler sclenched tightly on her her lap.
She took a deep breath. "What happened last night wasn't entirely my intention. I think I can explain." Nicolas shook < his head slightly. "Since it Hearing his words, Thea felt a pang of bitterness in her hear there's no point in revisiting it. What I'm asking is, how do you think we should resolve it?" heart.
Even after what had happened between them, even though they were legally husband and wife, Nicolas' cold tone made it seem like he was discussing a business deal.
Perhaps she hasn't wanted it to happen at all, only acting under the influence of the drug. Given that, there is no need to complicate things further,' she wondered. After calming herself, Thea spoke in a distant tone. "Any solution is fine. We're both adults, after all. There's no need to dwell on it." Her meaning was clear. She didn't need Nicolas to take responsibility.
What happened had happened, and they could just pretend it never did.
Thea was sure this response would satisfy Nicolas.
But to her surprise, his gaze turned cold in an instant.
11:15 Mon, Oct 28 B 94 Clenching his fist, his expression grew even darker as he repeated her words with a sneer. "No need to dwell on it, huh?" turned his head slightly, looking directly at Thea.
There was no trace of emotion on her face as she gave a small nod.
Nicolas felt a deep frustration settle in his chest.
A complex mix of emotions roiled inside him, hard to describe.

Although Thea's She took a deep breath. "I understand, Mr. Hendrix." Nicolas closed his eyes, giving a soft hum in response, then instructed the driver to start the car.
Thea was a bit puzzled. "Mr. Hendrix, where are we going?" "There's something I need your help with," Nicolas replied, massaging his temples. "You'll understand when we get there." The car stopped in front of a luxury mall.

Darwin, standing to the side, nervously explained. "Miss Rowland, Mr. Hendrix has a female friend who recently returned to Reasnatan. He rarely buys gifts for women, so he'd like you to help pick one out." Thea paused for a moment, quickly understanding who Darwin was referring to. It was likely Nicolas' first crush who had recently returned to Reasnatan.
Sighing inwardly, Thea kept her emotions in check, showing no sign of jealousy. "Since Mr. Hendrix trusts me, I'll give it a try."
She then began carefully selecting jewelry, asking Nicolas about then woman's preferences as if she weren't bothered in the slightest. In the In the end, she chose a sapphire necklace, elegant and expensive.
Price wasn't an issue. Thea knew Nicolas wouldn't be concerned about that.
Once the selection was made, Nicolas instructed Darwin to have a car take Thea home.
When Darwin returned to the car, he found Nicolas staring thoughtfully at the piece of jewelry in his hand.
After a moment of hesitation, Darwin carefully asked, "Mr. Hendrix, are we heading to Ms. Ralap now?"
"We'll pay her a visit," Nicolas said as he put the jewelry away and handed it to Darwin. "But keep the gift. Don't give it to Stephanie." Darwin seemed to half-understand, half-confused. It was clear that the real purpose behind picking the gift had been to provoke Thea.
But Thea didn't seem to care at all.
Mon, Chapter 94 She hadn't even asked who this female friend was.
Darwin knew enough about Thea's character. She was someone who responded to gentleness, not pressure.
Using this approach on her seemed to have no effect.
Swallowing the words he had intended to say, Darwin quietly put the jewelry away.
