Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle

Chapter 241

The

party continued.

The entanglement between Thea and Nicolas was insignificant. However, it made many people's gazes focus on Thea

They were all curious about what kind of woman could make Nicolas emotional.

Thea had no intention of attracting attention and only hid in the most remote corner.

"Mrs. Hendrix." Valentine came up to her. "Ollie has always been reckless. Please forgive him if he offended you somehow?

Valentine had been in business for a long time and knew how to talk appropriately.

Thea squeezed out a smile and said, "Mr. Windrow, if you have something to say, just say it.

Valentine said, "I believe that there must be something extraordinary about you since Mr. Hendrix values you. However, Ollie is my only brother... He often needs my help to deal with things. He is involved in insignificant business. I don't care about that because the Windrow family has been able to protect him, but Mr. Hendrix is not someone our family can offend. I hope that you can keep a distance from him."

Valentine's attitude was clear. However, as Thea looked at him, her heart ached.

She thought, 'It turns out that normal siblings would stand up for each other.

In the past, Duncan and Max would also protect her like this, especially Duncan.

No matter how badly Thea was bullied in school, Duncan would always be the first person to stand up for her.

She remembered that Duncan had once fought with a boy who was three years older than him because that person made an inappropriate joke about her.

Even though his face was bruised and swollen, Duncan would still raise his face and say to her, "This is what they get for bullying my sister. Thea, as long as I am around, no one can bully you." Unfortunately, that was all in the past.

The people who bullied her the most were the Rowland family.

This memory could only be buried in her heart forever.

Thea restrained her emotions and nodded. "Mr. Windrow, don't worry. I lost my composure just now.

"Mr. Ollie and I are just business partners. I can guarantee you that I won't go

overboard."

"That's for the best." As soon as Valentine left, Ollie arrived and asked "What did my brother tell you just now?" "Nothing." Thea's face was indifferent.

She felt that Valentine had probably never really understood Ollic.

Even though they had only interacted for a short period of time. Thea could feel that Ollie was unfathomable.

However, Valentine still treated him as a child who needed to be protected.

Thea added, "Your brother treats you well. You should be happy about it."

Ollie laughed and said noncommittally, "Mrs. Hendrix, when you agreed to come to this party, you didn't just want to stay in

a corner, right? Do you want me to bring you to meet some people from Silvercreek?"

Thea ignored him because Nicolas had been staring at her.

She smiled indifferently and said, "Mr. Windrow, I really don't dare to have too much contact with your friends. I'm afraid I'll come in contact with something bad. The person I'm waiting for will be here soon." As soon as she finished speaking, the entire building was in darkness.

A ray of light hit the high platform.

When Duncan and Teri walked down the spiral staircase hand in hand, they looked at each other affectionately, like the protagonists of a fairy tale.

If it weren't for the fact that Thea knew Duncan too well, she would probably that he actually loved Teri.

Duncan loved no one but Emmalie.

"Watch the steps." Duncan's words made Teri blush.

Even Mason Langstaff, who was following closely behind, was filled with satisfaction as he said, "Everyone, thank you for coming today."

The person who Thea had been waiting for arrived.

The applause was thunderous.

Duncan locked onto Thea almost immediately,

Mason announced, "Today, not only do I want to welcome Mr. Rowland to Silvercreek, but I also want to announce a happy occasion to everyone..."

The Rowland and Langstaff families were very satisfied with this marriage alliance.

Mason wanted to take advantage of the situation to make it public.

However, Teri interrupted him and said, "Father, there's no hurry. She felt that they could announce it anytime.

Her eyes twinkled. She looked like a little girl who had fallen in love. The jeers from the crowd were endless.

Even Ollie whistled. "Mrs. Hendrix, why do you look like you're not happy for your brother? That's not right." Thea did not answer and continued to look at the stage.

Her eyes met Teri's.

Teri said, "I know that everyone has been very curious about the Langstaff Group's business plans for the future and have question why we gave up working with Sparkle Rocks after years of collaboration with them. Today, I just want to publicize the inside story and give everyone a reminder." Teri was very humble. She wanted to ruin Thea.

The screen behind her flashed crazily, stealing everyone's attention.

Teri feigned a sigh and said, "This is the information that the bank reported to me. Sparkle Rocks has always been our trusted partner, but I never thought that they would do something as despicable as tax evasion after they had a new boss!

"As their business partner, I deeply despise them for it. As the future sister-in-law of Sparkle Rocks's new president, Thea Hendrix, I have to apologize to everyone on her behalf. Thea, I hope you can repent."

Thea thought, "Tax evasion?,

Her heart was beating like a drum.

She had just reviewed Sparkle Rocks's report. There were no mistakes.

However, in the photo behind Teri, the official seal of the Commerce Bureau was printed.

Teri would not joke about such a big matter on such an occasion

Thea held her breath for a moment, and her fingers sank deep into her palm.

Of course, she knew that if this matter was not handled properly, the company that her grandfather had left for her would fall into bankruptcy.

A person said, "I was wondering why the Langstaff Group canceled the collaboration immediately after their new president took office. It turns out that there's something else going on."

Another person said, "Mrs. Hendrix is from a wealthy family after all. She should know that this kind of thing is forbidden."

Someone else said, "Mrs. Hendrix has always been arrogant and despotic. She only took over Sparkle Rocks for fun. No matter what happens, the Rowland family will cover for her! It's just a pity that the Rowland family has such an ungrateful daughter and still has to clean up the mess for her."

The discussion forced Thea to walk out of the corner.

On the stage, Teri was still pressuring her. "Thea, I've spoken to the people from the Commerce Bureau. As long as you can make up for the tax, they can let bygones be bygones. This is the most I can do for you."
