Chapter 231
Thea heard her heart tremble slightly..
Stefan said with certainty, “Thea, Nicolas has been quiet since he was young… No matter what happens, he will choose to hold everything in his heart. However, I can tell that he cares about you, and I’m also very satisfied with you as his wife. Something is not right about that boy. I hope you can give you and Nicolas a chance to talk it out.”
Thea’s lips were bitter as she thought, “Talk about what?‘
She had so many questions, but Nicolas never gave her a chance to ask.
Moreover, she was afraid that she would get an unsatisfactory answer.

“Thank you,” Thea said sincerely, “But this relationship between me and Nicolas has a shady start. I have no right or position to question him.”
“You’re his wife. How can you not be qualified to ask him?” Stefan raised his white eyebrows and refused to let go of Thea’s hand. “Thea, believe me once and also believe in Nicolas.”
Thea was tempted.
When she left Sunnyend Manor, her mind was still replaying Stefan’s instructions.
In fact, she didn’t even notice that a car had stopped beside her.
It was Jake’s car. His face was gloomy.
It was obvious that he was there to visit Stefan. He was still holding a grudge against Thea. He asked, “How dare you come? Did you come here as my ex–fiancée or my uncle’s wife? For you, Nicolas has even taken back the control of Avon Ventures from me. You should be satisfied this time, right?”
It was not surprising that Nicolas would deal with Jake.
She thought, “The last time he drugged me in the underground garage, he should have expected this outcome…
However, Thea did not know that Nicolas would actually do this for her.
Nicolas’s action represented great humiliation to Jake and his father.
Thea took a step back and met Jake’s hateful gaze. She asked, “Isn’t this the retribution you deserve? If you didn’t intend to harm me, you wouldn’t have ended up like this. You can’t manage Avon Ventures at all. It’s good for to retire.”
Thea had been in Avon Ventures for many years and had a lot of feelings for it.
She did not want to watch her past efforts be destroyed by Jake.
“Thea!” Jake was already holding his anger in. Now, he vented it all out.
you
He did not care that he was still at Sunnyend Manor and could face Stefan’s questioning at any time. He approached Thea step by step.
He said, “Now, everyone knows that I was a coward who relied on women to get power. We only broke off our engagement. Are you going to be satisfied when I am dead?”
Thea rolled her eyes at him. She was not afraid that Jake would really do something to her there.
She said, “You probably don’t need me to recount all the things you did to me on the eve of our engagement, right? If you

Thes felt that he had gone crazy.
She tried to shake him off several times, but she couldn’t get 1 jake. She asked, ‘Aren’t you afraid that Stefan will find out and slap you?”
Jake said. “You think too highly of yourself. The wedding dare of bicolas and Ms. Ralap has been decided. Everyone says that they’re a match made in heaven… Grandpa i bicy with preparation of their marriage and doesn’t have the mood to care about you.
Thea thought. Why does Jake always give different information from Stefan?
Could it be that Stefan was just deliberately coaxing me?
She didn’t believe Jake.
Thea tried her best to shake off Jake’s hand and said, “Jake, I’m not in the mood to play games with you. Our relationship already ended a long time ago. I hope you won’t make me say this again!”
Her voice was fierce, but it did not affect Jake at all.
Just as he was about to chase after her, he was blocked by someone.
Thea looked back in panic and saw a tall figure.
Nicolas said, “Jake, did I not teach you enough lessons? Or did I not make myself clear enough to you before? You even dare to offend my woman time and time again. Do you really think that your father can protect you for the rest of your life?
If not for the fact that Nicolas was still holding hands with Stephanie, pperhaps Thea would really fall for him again.
Jake felt as if someone had splashed a bucket of cold water on him. Even his words were stuttering. “Uncle… It… It was Thea who seduced me!”
Thea thought, ‘How dare he lie so blatantly?‘
Thea’s face was cold as she was about to speak.
Then, she realized that Nicolas’s aura was even colder than hers. Nicolas questioned, “You mean, my wife ignored me and turned around to seduce you, who is inferior to me in every aspect? Jake, how shameless are you?”
Jake’s face turned pale.
He did not dare to offend Nicolas, nor did he dare to enter Sunnyend Manor. He could only leave dejectedly.
Thea read the bad feeling from Jake’s final look at her.
Jake was not a kind person. He did not dare to offend Nicolas, so he could plot against her.
Thea knew that he would definitely take revenge on her soon.

“Thea, where are you going? I’ll send you.” Nicolas strode in from of Thea, selectively ignoring the turmoil in her eyes.
“Dad, why do you have to give her a ride? She’s a bad woman!” Oliver frowned, his eyes filled with malice. “Dad, are you
even scolded me last time!” really going to be snatched away by her? She
He shrunk behind Nicolas, his voice stuttering.
Thea looked away coldly.
She thought, ‘What did Stephanie teach this child?
‘A child at this age should at least have the ability to distinguish right from wrong!
Thea had never done anything to him, but he kept calling her a bad person. It was enough to show how much Stephanie had badmouthed about her in front of Oliver.
Even so, Nicolas still squatted down and coaxed patiently, “Oliver, she’s not a bad person. She’s your future mother. You should respect her and love her.”
Thea’s heart froze.
Oliver’s cries suddenly grew louder in her ears. They were sharp and ear–piercing. “Dad, do you really want her to be my mother? I already have a mother! Will she never let me see my mother again?”
