Chapter 141 Richie's Dramatic Display

Richie gasped, his features contorted in agony as Theo failed to restrain his strength. Witnessing Theo's aggressive stance, Elyse erupted in anger. "Are you out of your mind?" she snapped, her tone laced with frustration.

Theo's lips curled into a sneer. "Come here, Elyse," he demanded, extending his hand towards her. Refusing to comply, Elyse recoiled as Theo made a grab for her. Theo was consumed by a turbulent mix of anger and bitterness, his emotions swirling uncontrollably.

a slap; it hardly seemed severe enough to warrant such theatrics. No stranger to performance, it seemed Richie's skills from the entertainment industry extended beyond the screen.

"Mr. Ward, not content with attempting to whisk away my wife, are you now resorting to physical altercations? Jayden's voice remained composed as he addressed Richie. "Did your parents

neglect to teach you basic manners? Or shall I have the pleasure of lecturing you?"

Theo's jaw clenched as he retorted through gritted teeth, "She belongs to me!" "She was almost yours," Jayden interjected, his tone ruthless. "You let her slip away once, but now you
