Thea blushed and coughed lightly. "What nonsense are you talking about? It's nothing. It's just that the two of us have talked things out. I even gave him a month's probation period"
Joyce sat up from the bed and looked surprised "A month of probation. What kind of new game is this? Although I want to tell you that men are unreliable, I have to tell you the truth. Nicolas is sincere to you if we disregard that annoying Stephanie." Thea leaned closer to Joyce and smiled. She held her hand and placed it on her flat stomach.
Joyce looked puzzled. She suddenly thought of something and covered her mouth in disbelief.
"You..." She almost lost the ability to express herself.
Thea's face turned even redder. When she lowered her head and touched her stomach, her eyes were filled with unconcealable tendemess.
She said. "It's only been a month, so I didn't tell him about this. Em afraid that I'm looking forward to it too much now. I'm afraid that he doesn't want the child."
Joyce recovered from her shock and her expression suddenly became serious.
She said, "Thea, I know what you've experienced in the past, causing you to be unable to completely trust romantic relationships. However, I think you should give it a try right now. Perhaps things won't be as bad as you think." Thea's eyes were confused and a little relaxed. Nicolas's cold fragrance still lingered in her nose.
When she found out about his feelings, that moment of joy and palpitation was real.
She felt that Joyce was right. Perhaps she could give it a try.
After all, life was so long. It would leave many opportunities for people to try and make mistakes. Thea smiled. She had never felt so relaxed before
She said. "You're right. We'll talk about it after this month. And I'm sure he won't let me down.
Joyce's eyes flickered as she reached out to hug her. "That's great I'm very happy to see you happy. You've earned this.
Everyone claimed that Thea was domineering and arrogant, and that she did not even show mercy to her own family.
However, only Joyce knew how difficult it had been for Thea.
The warm moments were always short-lived. Joyce's phone rang and the smile on her face froze before disappearing completely.
It was an unknown number, but she had already guessed who was calling
Joyce took a deep breath, took the phone, and wanted to hang up
The held her hand. "Don't be afraid. It's useless to run away. You have to face it."
Joyce nodded and answered the call.
As soon as the call went through, harsh insults came from the other end.
Kelly said, "Joyce, you're a born lowlife. I thought of ways to find such a good husband for you, but you didn't want him and

rushed to be with an illegitimate child? The Rowland family indeed can't compare to the Xander family, but Max is at least the legitimate future heir of the Rowland family. Corey is nothing in comparison to him. "You are the same as Thea now. She was abandoned by Jake and then became Nicolas's mistress."
Kelly's scolding became more and more unpleasant. Joyce was originally holding it in, but when she heard her scolding Thea, she could not hold it in anymore.
Joyce said, "Who's the one who's greedy and vain? I said that I don't love Max, but you forced me to marry him and didn't
even give me the right to pursue happiness. Do you want me to become like you in the future and be forced by my family to marry someone I don't love? After less than a year of marriage, you abandoned your husband and child and eloped with someone else. Since you me to do the same?"
Kelly did not expect Joyce to use her past experiences to attack her. She was so upset that she almost could not breathe. "You... you."
There was a noise on the other end, and the phone was snatched away.
Ethan took over the phone.
His tone was cold with a hint of helplessness and fatigue. "Joyce, when will you understand that your mother is doing this for your own good? Corey is not a good person, and so is Thea. Come back immediately. Let's return to the life we had before, okay! She's your moth but now you Joyce could not help but choke up. "Dad, you weren't like this before she came back. You praised Thea before, hate her. How are you any different from those people who slandered her? This family is no longer the one I know. I won't go back unless you force Kelly's
gloomy voice came from the other end, "Since that's her plan, why don't we do as she wishes? Ethan. I want to make it clear to you. Your daughter is so disobedient. If word gets out, shell embarrass me. If you don't resolve this matter, I'll leave with Lily immediately." Ethan panicked. He hung up the phone and turned around to coax Kelly nicely.
Joyce could not take it anymore. She covered her face and sobbed.
Thea looked at her with heartache. She could understand Joyce's current mood.
Moreover, she knew that Joyce must be in even more pain. After all, Thea had long lost hope for the Rowland family, but Joyce was different.
Before Kelly returned, Joyce and Ethan were very close.
The two of them depended on each other. Although Joyce had a single-parent family, it was obvious that Ethan had given Joyce abundant love.
There was no way to explain this situation clearly. It was unclear whether Ethan had exposed his true nature or he had become this way because he loved Kelly too much.
Thea took a deep breath and held Joyce's hand.
She said, "Joyce, I know it might be a little cruel to tell you this now, but as you can see, they still don't intend to let you off. What are your plans next?"
Joyce stopped crying. She raised her head and stared at Thea with teary eyes. Her eyes were filled with weakness and sadness.
She said. "I don't know. I've never left my family. Thea, I always felt that I was very independent in the past, but now I
