Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle By Danielle Sayers

Fiancé Uncle 172 Nicolas was in the smoking room.

The moment Darwin entered, a strong whiff of cigarette smoke assailed his nostrils.

Nicolas held a half-smoked cigarette between his fingers. The weariness in his handseyes was unmistakable.

Scattered around his leather boots were numerous cigarette butts.

This was the first tDarwin had witnessed him in such a state, and concern immediately welled up within him. "Mr. Hendrix, is Ms. Ralap's condition really bad?" Nicolas reached out and pinched the bridge of his nose. "No, the doctor said her life isn't in danger. She'll need stto recuperate. Her leg is broken, but it can be treated." "But she's pregnant." A glint of coldness flashed across his dark eyes. "Perhaps she ctoto tellabout this." Darwin was also taken aback. "Ms. Ralap? Pregnant?" Nicolas tossed the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground in exasperation and ground it out with his foot. "I've had someone look into it. She slept with a producer who has connections for a role. She managed to keep it under wraps quite well and hardly anyone knew. In fact, she could have sought my help, but guess why she chose to do it this way?" He let out a cold laugh. "Just to ensure her competitors would never get any acting gigs. She knew I'd definitely turn down such a request if she made it to me, so she took matters into her own hands. Darwin, look at the kind of person she is. If it weren't for her brother, I rea her life or death." Darwin was truly astonished.

Nicolas took a deep breath. "So I intend to send her abroad immediately after she recovers. When she was nearly hit by that car today, I was indeed terrified. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to face her brother, and I really didn't want to get tangled up in this mess. So, this se Indeed, Darwin couldn't help but feel a sense of injustice on his behalf. 'All because of a favor, he had gotten this trouble with Stephanie.' Just then, a commotion of noisy footsteps erupted from outside.

Darwin furrowed his brows and was about to go out to see what was going on when his phone rang.

himself into When he saw the message content, he was so infuriated that he almost let loose a string of expletives. "What on earth is going on? How did the media get wind of this?" Nicolas let out a cold chuckle, his eyes icy. "Someone must have tipped them off in advance. I'll handle them. You go and find out which mole we have among our staff."""Yes." Darwin nodded and took his leave.

When Nicolas opened the door and stepped out, he was immediately swarmed by a horde of reporters. Flashbulbs were flashing incessantly, and the camera lenses were almost shoved into his face.

"Mr. Hendrix, is your relationship with Ms. Ralap genuine or fabricated?" "Mr. Hendrix, how is Ms. Ralap's condition now? Why did she get into a car accident? Sinsiders have revealed that she 1/3 09:54 Sat, Nov 2 Chapter 172 was accidentally hit by a car because she was arguing with your suitor." "Mr. Hendrix, may I ask if Ms. Ralap is, as rumored, pregnant?" Nicolas's face remained impassive, an air of hostility seeming to envelop him.

+5 He didn't answer their questions. Instead, he countered, "Did the person who sent you here to interviewever mention to you what the consequences of offendingwould be?" behind my back The reporters exchanged glances.

They were all from small media companies, and swere interns or newbies. Hearing that this was explosive news, they had rushed over without giving it much thought.

"You have five minutes. If you don't leave now, you'll have to face the consequences." Nicolas's voice was stern as he issued the ultimatum.

Thea was still in a daze when she returned home.

Now, whenever she closed her eyes, all she could see was Stephanie lying in a pool of blood.

Nicolas was also there, but he was standing a bit far away, so she couldn't make out his expression clearly. All she knew was that he seemed to be blaming her.

On a whim, she turned on her phone to check the online public opinion.

The comment section was abuzz with speculation that the baby in Stephanie's womb was definitely Nicolas's. Someone with a sharp eye also noticed that Thea had been present at the scene but hadn't been recognized. "I always have a feeling that there's something off about Thea. Why did Stephanie get into a car accident? Thea's expression, at the scene was really strange." "Previous poster, I was also at the scene. I know you're eager to find out, but hold your horses. Don't go around accusing people randomly. If it really was her, given how much Nicolas dotes on Stephanie, he would have caught her on the spot. How could he let the culprit g Thus, the topic of Thea being the culprit was quickly brushed aside, and people's attention remained focused on Stephanie's miscarriage.

Speople lamented the situation.

Swere just waiting to see a good show, eager to watch Nicolas fly into a rage and punish the culprit. Thea's gaze was fixed on a photo of her own back. Her heart grew cold.

'Yes, Nicolas would surely seek revenge. But why had he remained silent at that time? Perhaps he just hadn't reacted yet. Coupled with their special relationship, he probably planned to settle the score later.

Thea's limbs felt weak. A tumult of complex emotions churned within her. She couldn't tell whether she was more heartbroken or more apprehensive.

Suddenly, a shrill ringtone pierced her ears, making her startled It was a call from the lawyer.

He had already arrived safely overseas and specifically called to express his gratitude to her, asking her to take good care of 2/3 09:54 Sat, Nov 2 Chapter 172 herself.

Thea felt a warmth spread through her body as she thanked him The lawyer lowered his voice to remind her. "Miss Rowland, now that the items are in your possession, I suggest you quickly make them yours legally. That way, even if they try to take them back, it'll be to no avail. I'm sorry I'm overseas now and can't be of much help. But Actually, he didn't have to go to all this trouble. After running off overseas, he could have simply blocked Thea and deleted all her contact information. She wouldn't have been able to do anything about it.

But that's how human relationships work. If you helptoday, I'll return the favor tomorrow.

Thea didn't want to let down the lawyer's kind intentions. "Them please givehis contact information. I'll have a chat with him about this." The lawyer readily agreed and immediately sent over a contact recommendation.

After Thea sent the friend request, she set it aside for the moment.

The lawyer was right. Her current focus should be on the things her grandfather had left her.

She found the key to the safe and carefully opened it.

Inside, there was only a stack of photos and a letter.

Holding these items, Thea didn't feel they were insignificant. Instead, they felt weighty in her hands.

For a moment, she suddenly felt like crying.

The letter was rather long. She hadn't expected to see her grandfather's handwriting again in her lifetime. Joshua had rambled on a great deal in the letter, as if he wanted to pour out all the unsaid words.

Unfortunately, he was on his last legs at that time. Not only was writing a letter a struggle, but even eating was a problem. So, towards the end, the handwriting becincreasingly sloppy He said that, deep down, he still hoped Thea would return to the Rowland family, not for the sake of a superficial harmony.

Rather, he felt it was too lonely for Thea to be alone in the world Without any support or spiritual anchor, life would surely be a tough slog.

Finally, he sighed again and said that if the Rowland family members m remained so stubborn, she should keep her distance from that family. In the end, Joshua left a poignant sentence.
