Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle

Chapter 168

Thea continued to stare at her coldly.

This made Ivy feel a little helpless.

Thea had always had a bad temper since she was a child. In the past few years, she still cared a lot about family affection. Threatening her with that used to work, and she was always obedient.

But in recent years, she had become more disobedient and couldn't get close to her family anymore.

Soon, Ivy found the answer. The change happened after she broke up with Jake.

Probably, she now thought that being with Nicolas, she had a backer, so she didn't need to pretend at home anymore.

She didn't think highly of their relationship. A man like Nicolas had no lack of women around him, and they didn't seem to have real feelings for each other.

When they separated, Thea would surely come crying and begging to return to the Rowland family.

Thinking of this, Ivy felt more confident.

She straightened her back. "Thea, you're still young and not very sensible. I don't blame you. But I have to warn you that if you push things too far, you'll block your own way back." Thea sneered. "Returning to the Rowland family is what would really block my way back."

Estimating that the time was up, she stood up with a smile. "I forgot to tell you that I didn't just come here today. I also brought a special guest. You all know them. Don't be surprised when you see them." Ivy's eyelids twitched.

Sure enough, when she saw the person walking in from outside, the smile on her face froze.

"Why are you here?!" Her voice became shrill.

The lawyer didn't dare to look into Ivy's eyes. He moved closer to Thea and said in a voice only they could hear, "When Mr. Rowland asked me to come, he promised me that you would protect my personal safety. Miss Rowland, I had no choice but to help the Rowland family.

"I'm just an ordinary person. I didn't know they would be so crazy. My family and I have been under surveillance these days. If you can protect us, the inheritance will surely be yours."

Hearing what she wanted to hear, Thea finally smiled. "Don't worry.

Since I asked you to come for a fair confrontation, I will protect you. If you don't trust me, you should trust my husband, Nicolas. Be brave and tell them what they're doing now is no different from breaking the law."

The lawyer breathed a sigh of relief and raised his voice. "Mrs. Rowland, the will left by Mr. Rowland before he passed away is legally valid. It clearly states that all the things he left behind belong to Thea. If you don't hand them over, you will be embezzling other people's p Ivy was shaking with anger. Why could this lawyer be found by Thea?

Logically speaking, this was impossible. Did she rely on Nicolas's influence?

But there hadn't been any signs. How did she manage to do it?

Having no other way, Ivy tried to morally blackmail her again. "Thea, are you crazy? You want to sue your relatives? Even if

your grandpa loved you, he also had other grandchildren. You're being so overbearing and ruthless. Aren't you afraid of being cursed to death if this gets out?"

Thea didn't show any panic on her face. She even laughed out loud. "Mrs. Rowland, do you think I'd be afraid of this? Since I was a child, because of someone, haven't I borne enough accusations? In other words, I grew up under the scorn and spitting of everyone." She winked at Emmalie. "Speaking of which, I should thank my sister, Emmalie. If it weren't for you trying every means to smear me, I wouldn't have developed such a strong heart. Let them curse. I don't care. I might even think they're not cursing dirty enough." Ivy covered her heart and took a few steps back, pointing at her. You... you."

But she couldn't say a complete sentence.

Emmalie quickly supported her and then turned to look at Thea with a reproachful look. "Thea, you're being too much. In your mind, are these things more important than our family?".

After saying that, she turned her spearhead towards the lawyer. "I'm going to report you. As a lawyer, you're helping the bad guys bully the honest people. How can you be a lawyer like this?"

The lawyer's mouth twitched a few times. He forced a smile and said, "I'm really sorry, Miss Emmalie Rowland. I have to explain clearly to you that I'm not taking sides. I'm standing on the side of the law. Now you remember family affection and talk about right and wrong? Thea couldn't be helped but look at the lawyer again. Sure enough, being a lawyer, he was good with words.

Duncan took a step forward, his eyes looking fierce. "Thea, I admit you've won. I'll give you the things. But Mom's condition is really bad now. Are you sure you want to continue making a fuss? If someone dies because of this, can you bear the responsibility?" Thea curled her lips slightly and asked the lawyer beside her, "Excuse me, have I done anything to hurt or insult anyone just now?"

The lawyer shook his head. "No, you haven't."

Thea shrugged. "See? This has nothing to do with me."

Duncan was so angry that he almost spat out blood. "You're so cruel!"

Probably stimulated to the point of madness, Ivy almost couldn't catch her breath. Her head tilted and she fainted.

Immediately, the whole Rowland family was in chaos.

Emmalie urged Duncan to send Ivy to the hospital.

Unexpectedly, Thea quickly stepped forward and grabbed Duncan. Then she turned to sarcastically taunt Emmalie. "What? Can't you do anything independently without Duncan? You alone are enough to send Mrs. Rowland to the hospital. He stays here." Emmalie puffed up with anger. "Thea, look at what you've done to Mom! You're being too much."

"Having the time to blame me but no time to send someone to the hospital. What a dutiful son you are. I'll keep an eye on you." Thea was merciless with her words.

Emmalie left with a red face.

Duncan looked at her with an even colder gaze. "Are you satisfied now that things have been like this?"

Thea was quite honest.

She shook her head. "Of course not. I'd rather it was you and Emmalie who went to the hospital today."

"You!" Duncan was so angry that he raised his hand to hit her.

Thea had no intention of dodging. She stared at him with a smile.

The lawyer kindly reminded, "Mr. Rowland, if you slap her, you'll be the next one to end up in court."

At this moment, a servant brought over a safe.

Thea recognized it as her grandpa's old thing at a glance.

In an instant, her heart trembled slightly.
