Chapter 253
Thea stepped into the Rowland family.
It was obvious that they were discussing something important inside. Even the the door. They asked confusedly, “Miss… Miss Thea?”
They thought, ‘Didn’t the rumors say that she is dead? Why did she come back?‘
Nicolas protected Thea in the river. So, she was not even injured.
servants and butler were ordered to guard
She met the servants‘ surprising gaze and smiled. “Am I not welcomed by someone? Move aside.”
Even if Thea was not favored by the Rowland family, the butler would not dare to block the way.
As she walked, she dripped water along the way.
Every time Thea left the Rowland family, she would secretly make up her mind that she would never come to this place that had broken her heart.
But every time, she would came back on her own
The argument in the living room could be clearly heard through the door.
“Max, Thea’s matter happened too suddenly. We are her only family. The things she left behind should be split equally between us and mother. How can your take all of it?” Duncan’s tone was as teasing as ever.
He sounded indifferent to Thea’s death.
Ivy was a little stunned. “You mean, Thea is really dead?
Although she always was upset with Thea, she was her daughter after all.
Ivy still had feelings for Thea. However, compared to Thea, she had a better choice.
After she received the news, Ivy’s heart still ached. She asked, ‘Did you send anyone to look for her or inform the rescue team? How can she die just like that?”
“Mother, even the Hendrix family didn’t send any news. How could there be any chance of survival… It’s all my fault. Duncan and I failed to protect Thea” Emmalie sat beside Ivy, trying to distance herself from Max’s conflict with Duncan. She only sobbed silently.
The main reason why the Rowland family loved her was that Emalie had never had any designs about the assets.
Emmalie added, “Duncan is right. It’s fine if Thea is gone, but everything she left behind has to be split equally.”
Thea thought. It’s okay if I am gone?”
The corners of Thea’s lips curled up as she felt pain inside.
She did not understand what she was hoping for.
It was extremely extravagant to expect love and care from her own family.
The shares under Thea’s name and Sparkle Rocks were all left to her by Crandpa. I’m the heir appointed by Grandpa back then. He must also hope that these things can return to my hands to avoid unnecessary trouble” Even when facing his family, Max’s expression was still arrogant.

Chapter 253
Duncan already had some shares of the Rowland Group.
If Thea’s share was divided equally between the three siblings, Max felt that Duncan could have enough to threaten his position.
Max always knew about Duncan’s plan.
Outside the door, Thea held the doorknob and did not push it open for a long time.
Her sneer was cold, but she knew very well that there would probably be more exciting scenes soon.
“Max, you are right.” Duncan sighed lightly. “I might as well give up my share.”
Thea thought, ‘He doesn’t want it? How can Duncan be so generous?”
Duncan had always been vengeful. He would only treat Emmalie with kinddness.
Duncan added, “Emmalie has been home for so many years, but she has never had any real power in the company. If she gets some shares, she will be confident after she marries off to another family.”
Emmalie was extremely touched. “Duncan! I know you’re doing this for my sake, but everything in the company belongs to you and Max… I don’t dare to covet it.”
Tears glistened in her eyes. She was also trying to blame Thea by saying that.
Since Thea received shares from Joshua and refused to give it up, Emmalie tried to make Thea look selfish and arrogant.
At this moment, Ivy had already pulled herself out of her temporary sadness. She nodded and said, “Duncan is right. No matter who gets this share, there will definitely be trouble. Emmalie is a girl. Even if she gets it, it will do nothing but provide assurance for her future.
“Max, she wandered outside for so many years before returning to us. You promised me that you would leave the best things to her.”
Since Ivy had already spoken, Max could only give in.
He indeed care about Emmalie. He said, ‘Since that’s the case, Emmalie… Accompany me to close Thea’s account and complete the procedures for the transfer of shares”
The final decision was made.
Only Emmalie could snatch the shares from the rest of the Rowland family.
Thea laughed coldly. In the end, she couldn’t control her emotions and pushed the door open.
She said, “Shut down my account? Mr. Rowland, you have no authority to manage my account… I’m standing right in front of you. Do you want to spread rumors that I am dead?”
No one expected Thea to suddenly appear.
The first to react was Ivy. She suddenly stood up and was surprised and delighted. “Thea, you’re actually still alive? If that’s the case, why didn’t you send news to your family first? At least let me feel relieved?”
Thea was willing to believe that at least Ivy’s heartache for her was real
However, before Ivy could walk towards her, Emmalie hurriedly stopped her.
She said “Mom, don’t go over! I’ve heard others say that some vengeful spirits might be too unwilling to die and return to their families in the form of souls. Mom, I’m afraid that Thea will hurt youL
Chapter 253-
Emmalie lowered her eyes, hiding her hatred and jealousy.
Thea was clearly in such a sorry state. However, she looked very beautiful.
Emmalie thought, ‘Why did Thea get all the good things? She can even escape death!‘
Emmalie grabbed Ivy’s sleeve unwillingly. She did not expect anyone to believe this groundless sentence. She just wanted. Thea to see it clearly that she did not belong to this family.
As expected, Ivy hugged Emmalie even more heartbrokenly and said, “Emmalie, you are the best. Unlike Thea, she didn’t
nothing!”
inform us and made me worry for t
Thea laughed angrily.
The first thing she did after walking out of the dense forest with Nicolas was to hurriedly come back to her family.
She said, “Mrs. Rowland, you’re wrong. I’m not your daughter.”
The corners of Thea’s lips curled up slightly. She said provocatively, “I’ve never thought of telling you that I’m safe. I came here today to warn everyone not to have any thoughts on something that shouldn’t belong to you.”
