Thea remembered that in high school, because of Emmalie's crying, Duncan lured her to the rockery of the villa and pushed her down.

Thea ended up with a broken ankle, while Duncan was pointing at her and joking with Emmalie.

After that, he even snatched Thea's walking stick every day on the way to school, making her endure the excruciating pain in her ankle while walking to school.

Thea ended up with a nickname throughout her high school years. It had become a pain that she would never be able to forget. Even now, she could still feel the pain in her ankle.

For the sake of Emmalie, there was nothing that Duncan did not dare to do.

Thea turned around when her path was blocked.

Everyone from the Rowland family surrounded Emmalie eagerly and asked about her well-being, completely ignoring Thea's sorry state.

"We have a room for you. If you don't want to sign it now, you can rest at home for a while." Duncan took out a file out of his briefcase. Obviously, he had prepared it a long time ago. He was planning to force Thea to sign it.

Thea refused to cooperate. "Recuperate? Duncan, are you really not afraid that Nicolas will come and ask you for me? For me, he can send your ex-fiancée to jail. I heard that she was released on bail recently." Recently, Duncan had focused all his attention on Emmalie. He did not care about Teri's situation.

When he saw Emmalie's pale face, Duncan was secretly delighted, but more than that, he was annoyed.

He said arrogantly, "Do you think I'm afraid of Nicolas?"

He did not receive the expected reply.

Max then saw Nicolas entering the house. He wished he could rush up and cover Duncan's mouth.
