to Max. However, Duncan and Emmalie were different.

Now that their plan failed, Emmalie’s hypocritical expression was obviously not that natural. She said, “Thea, you’ve misunderstood us. If you’re alive, your family will definitely be the happiest. How can money and shares be more important than you?”
Emmalie reached out and tried to grab the back of Thea’s hand,
However, before she could touch her tender skin, Thea pushed her away.
Emmalie took advantage of the situation and fell heavily to the ground. Tears came out of her eyes as she said, “Thea, I’m sincerely happy for you. Why are you still so hostile to me? I’ve never wanted anything from you!”
“Thea, are you crazy?” Ivy helped Emmalie up and glared at Thea. “Emmalie ‘s body is weak to begin with. How dare you attack her? Do you really want our family to never have peace again?”
Duncan was faster than her. A slap landed on Thea’s face. She trembled in pain and instantly tasted blood in her mouth. Duncan said, “Thea, apologize to Emmalie! Who do you think you are? How dare you touch my sister!”
The rest of the Rowland family acquiesced to Duncan’s actions.
Duncan added, “Now, apologize to Emmalie immediately.”

After a life–and–death experience, Thea would no longer be sad because of the so–called kinship.
She raised her clear eyes and slapped Duncan’s face even harder. “Apologize? Impossible! Instead of blaming me, Duncan, why don’t you ask Emmalie what she did to me? Not to mention with her body, I’m afraid she can fall with the wind. I don’t need to do anything.”
Her mocking tone made everyone ignore the deeper meaning behind Thea’s words.
Only Emmalie suddenly looked up with a sharp and ruthless gaze.
She thought, ‘Does Thea know something? Impossible!
‘Every time I went to interact with Amelia, I would deliberately get my manager to help me disguise myself. No one could recognize me. Thea must be bluffing!”
Emmalie made a judgment in her heart and resumed her sobbing tone. “Thea, I know, that you’ve always hated me. You blame me for coming back and attracting the attention of everyone in the family. But I’ve already said that I can leave. I just want this rare warmth of kinship.
“Thea, I won’t say anything no matter what you do to me, but why are you venting your anger on Duncan because of me?” Even the stunned Duncan could not help but laugh coldly.

When he went crazy, he would attack anyone.
Now that he had been humiliated by Thea in front of Emmalic, he naturally would not let it go. He said, “Thea, looks like if I don’t teach you a lesson, you really won’t respect me.”
He was very stron
He only exerted a little force, and Thea was completely unable to resist. She was forcefully pressed down until her spine was bent.
Her knees buckled under Duncan’s kick.
Thea struggled, but she was forced by Duncan to come to Emmalie. Duncan said, “Apologize.”
“Duncan, isn’t this too much for Thea? After all, she’s still Mrs. Hendrix.” Emmalie’s eyes flashed with excitement.
What she loved to see the most was that someone as proud as Thea had no choice but to bend her back in front of her. Of course, Emmalie knew that this wouldn’t be able to crush Thea’s pride. She also knew that putting on this kind of act would only add fuel to the fire.
Emmalie said, “I don’t care if Thea apologizes or not. Duncan, don’t touch Thea. I don’t want Nicolas to hate you.”

Thea was so angry that she almost laughed. “If it weren’t for the fact that you guys were greedy for my assets and even attacked me first, would I have retaliated? Duncan, you seem to have forgotten that you were the one who signed the contract with me on behalf of your entire family to serve my ties with the Rowland family.”
Thea thought, ‘They were the ones who abandoned me. Why should I care about the ethics of kinship with them?”
Max took a step forward. His cold face was filled with disapproval. “Thea, how can you say such insensible words? We siblings have the same blood running in our vains. Apologize quickly and this matter will be over.”
As usual, he tried to smooth things over.
However, no one from the Rowland family had ever tried to take Thea’s side.
The reason why Max came out to speak was purely because he did not want to make his future relationship with Nicolas too
tense.
Duncan was not as scheming as him. He said, “Thea has committed atrocities and should be dealt with according to the family law. Also, she pushed Emmalie just now… She should sign the share transfer contract as medical fees!”
Thea thought, ‘What an exorbitant demand!”
However, both Ivy and Max were full of approval.
Max and Duncan would only reach an agreement when they sought to scheme against Thea.
They had never cared that Thea had just escaped death and did not even have a chance to catch her breath.
Thea was so angry that she almost laughed. Even though she was forced to bend down, she still did not give up on resisting and struggling. Her pride had never been broken,

Thea somehow lifted Duncan’s and strode out.

Although the Rowland family was gradually declining, in order to maintain their dignity, the number of security guards and servants at home was not small.
Before she could take a few steps, the servants blocked her way.
Duncan said, “Thea, you should know that I’m not negotiating with you, but demanding you. If you don’t agree, I have endless ways to deal with you.”
Duncan was cold. He sent chills down Thea’s spine. He was not j
