Fiancé Uncle 98

Chapter 98

After a long moment, Nicolas withdrew his gaze, his tone cold. "Let's go."

Darwin couldn't help but speak up. "I noticed Miss Rowland didn't look too well. Maybe something's wrong. Mr. Hendrix, should I go check on her?"

It was clear to Darwin that Thea had no feelings left for Jake, but for some reason, Nicolas seemed constantly bothered by it.

It made sense, though. Even eight years ago, when the two had been together, Nicolas had always held a grudge. Separately, the names Thea and Jake were no issue, but together, they became a sure way to push Nicolas' buttons. Nicolas lifted his gaze, giving Darwin a cold, indifferent look. "If you're so free, I can find more work for you."

Darwin immediately fell silent.

The coldness in Nicolas' eyes grew sharper. "Drive. Back to the office."

Thea felt like her marriage with Nicolas was nearing its end.

For days, she hadn't run into him at Avon Ventures.

Meanwhile, rumors about Nicolas and Stephanie were swirling all over the internet, growing louder with each passing day. Curious, Thea decided to look into Stephanie.

Stephanie was an overseas celebrity. Although her talent wasn't particularly remarkable, she had always had incredible resources.

With her good looks and warm personality, Stephanie was quite popular in the entertainment industry.

Perhaps due to her recent search history, Thea's social media feed began pushing more and more videos of Stephanie.

One day, Thea came across a photo collection of Stephanie. She paused, staring at one particular photo.

It was taken in a restaurant.

In the photo, Stephanie was smiling brightly, her dimples showing faintly. Her eyes sparkled with unmistakable sweetness and happiness.

Next to her was a hand, peeling shrimp.

With just one glance, Thea knew it was Nicolas.

'No wonder she's so happy,' Thea thought to herself.

She sighed softly, closing her phone, and began pondering the idea of divorce. 'Should I be the one to suggest it, or wait for Nicolas to bring it up?"

Having mentally prepared herself over the past few days, Thea no longer felt that bitterness or ache in her heart.

After all, she had more important things to focus on.

The group that had attacked her. Although they had covered their faces well, they hadn't been able to hide everything. Thes had noticed something unusual about them.
