Chapter 208

Thea leaned against Nicolas with a lazy posture, like an elegant Persian cat.

Nicolas looked down at her with tenderness in his eyes and asked, "Is the collaboration between Sparkle Rocks and the Langstaff Group going smoothly?"

Thea shook her head. "It didn't go well, but it wasn't too bad either. Song is Duncan's fiancée. The two of them are birds of a feather. Even if they didn't deliberately make things difficult for the this time, it would still be difficult for me to trust such a business partner in the future. "Fortunately, I got to know the second son of the richest man in Silvercreek. You should know him too. His name is Ollie Windrow. With his help, I will be able to smooth things over."

Nicolas was helpless. "You're quite honest. Then why didn't you ask me for help? How much money do you need? Just tell me a number."

Thea looked up at him seriously and said, "But I don't like to rely on others. If I need your help for everything I do, then what's the point of me coming out to explore the world? I might as well be a stay-at-home wife." When Nicolas heard this, he lowered his head and left a gentle kiss on Thea's face. "Don't tire yourself out. I can understand you no matter what you do."

Thea smiled brightly.

Nicolas thought of something and said, "By the way, Ollie looks sloppy on the surface, but in fact, he's not that simple. If possible, I still don't want you to interact with him. Be careful."

Thea's tone was relaxed. "At least for now, he doesn't have any hostility towards me. I can only take one step at a time."

Nicolas stared at Thea's beautiful face and his heart itched.

Thea seemed to have predicted his thoughts in advance and stood up. "It's too late. I have to rest. Nicolas, good night."

She walked to the door and winked at Nicolas. It meant that they would be staying in different rooms tonight.

Nicolas was not angry. He smiled gently and said, "Goodnight."

The next morning, Nicolas left after preparing a gift for Thea.

When Thea woke up, she saw Joyce in the living room.

Joyce's face was filled with resentment. "This Nicolas is really too much. It's fine that he came to visit you, but why did he have to trick me away?"

Thea sat beside her and held her hand. "I'll be more careful next time. I won't be fooled by him."
