Chapter 257 Thea's hand froze in mid-air and her expression changed drastically. She asked, "Mr. Hendrix, don't joke around like this. If I remember correctly, Oliver often comes to visit Stefan. Why does Stefan still want another grandchild? Is it because that brat is too naughty and has annoyed Stefan?" Moreover, there was still Jake. Stefan could possible have a great grandchild.
"Thea..." Nicolas's words were stuck at the corner of his lips. For a moment, he did not know what to say.
Thea lost her patience. "Mr. Hendrix, I hope you know that I cto see Dad because he really treatswell. It has nothing to do with you. As for the child, that's the crystallization and continuation of a couple's love. There's no love between us anymore, how can we have a child." After she was done, Thea was ready to leave.
As they brushed past each other, Nicolas grabbed her wrist tightly.
He controlled his strength very well, making Thea unable to move, but she did not feel any pain. She resisted. "What do you want?" "Let's talk outside." Nicolas was afraid of disturbing Stefan's sleep, so he pulled Thea all the way out of the villa. As soon as they left, Stefan got up from the bed. "Darwin, get the kitchen to prepare sfried chicken for me." "Mr. Hendrix... If Mr. Hendrix finds out that I'm cooperating with you on this, he'll definitely kill me." Darwin cin with a bitter face.
It was true that Stefan was angry, but he had been recuperating over the years. He would not collapse because of today's incident.
He did this to help Nicolas out.
"If I don't force him, I'm afraid he'll never tell Thea the truth!" Stefan snorted coldly. "I'm helping him. Can he blme for it? This nutrient solution doesn't makefeel full. Tell the kitchen that I want to a lot of chicken wings." Darwin could not dissuade him and could only ober him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe thought, 'It was clearly a battle between them, why did I have to get involved?' Nicolas and Thea had no idea what was happening.
Thea said, "Mr. Hendrix, please behave yourself." Along the way, Thea finally found a suitable opportunity to shake off Nicolas's restraint. "You already have a child. Our divorce procedures are also in progress. It shouldn't be appropriate for you to be so close to your ex- wife, right?" She knew how to hurt people's hearts. Nicolas's lips twitched.
Thea could see the struggle in his eyes, but she was not in the mood to be involved with him.
She said, "Mr. Hendrix, there are hundreds of people in Sparkle who are counting on me. I will cto visit Stefan regularly. I don't want to bump into you or your child here. I don't get along with him." Thea turned around and was about to leave.
Nicolas's struggle finally cto an end. He said, "The child is not mine." Thea stopped in her track She suddenly turned around and met Nicolas's focused expression. She snorted. "Mr. Hendrix, do you really think I'm at three-year-old child? Are you skind of philanthropist who would raise a child for a murderer?" She would never forget the damage that Stephanie dealt to her.
If not for the fact that Nicolas had protected Stephanie and Oliver too well, she would have long finished them. Based on how concerned Nicolas was for them, Thea didn't believe that Oliver was not his child.
"Thea, Oliver is Vergil Ralap's child," Nicolas told the truth. "Don't you think that Oliver doesn't look like me?" Thea clenched her fists slightly. That explanation made sense..
Seeing that she was moved, Nicolas continued, "I owe my life to Vergil. Even if Stephanie didn't take this opportunity to threaten me, I wouldn't ignore Oliver after I found out about his existence." This was indeed Nicolas's style of doing this.
Thea wanted to vent her anger, but she was afraid that she would really hurt him by hitting him. She asked, "Why didn't you tellin advance? Nicolas, do I look like svicious stepmother who definitely can't accept Oliver?" "It's not!" It was rare for Nicolas to sound flustered. He pulled Thea into his arms and said, "I promised Stephanie that I would treat Oliver as my own. If I didn't know the truth behind my mother's death, I might never have told you about this." These days, he was also conflicted. He wanted to keep Thea, but he could not break his promise. It was Jepson's matter that made him change his mind.
He did not want to repeat the fate of his parents.
He would definitely treat Oliver as his own, but he didn't want Oliver to affect his relationship with Thea. He said, "I'm sorry Whether it's for our child or for hiding this matter recently, I should apologize to you." The first the bowed his proud head was for her.
Thea did not even know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Then you have to think about how to compensatein the future. Nicolas, I can't have children anymore. Stefan's wish will never be fulfilled in this lifetime." Nicolas had already found the best obstetrician and gynecologist in the world for Thea.
He did not want to force Thea to have a child. He just did not want Thea's body to be damaged.
Thea said, "That child has already gone astray. If we want to change that, we have to discipline him." Nicolas could only pamper her. "I'll do as you say." Their breaths intertwined, and they could see the deep affection in each other's eyes. It could not be faked at all.
This time, Nicolas held Thea's hand and never wanted to let go.
Thea could not help but smile happily after realizing Nicolas's true thoughts.
When they cback, they were holding hands.
Darwin saw them standing shoulder to shoulder from afar and wanted to remind Stefan, but it was too late.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the two of them pushed the door open, Stefan was still eating chicken wings. He no longer looked like he had a stroke.
20:43 Fri, Chapter 257 "Dad?" Thea asked tentatively.
The chicken wing fell onto Stefan's clothes. He didn't even have tto put on an act again.
Nicolas asked, "So you were pretending?" Stefan saw Nicolas's cold gaze for the first time.
He was still trying his best to maintain his dignity. "I washeartbroken by depson? I also want to see to see if you care about me. From the looks of it, Thea is the best."
"Dad, you shouldn't joke about such sighed om things with us." Thea helplessly. On the way back, we were worried about what we should do." Of course, it would be best if nothing happened, but Nicolas would never let it go so easily.
Under Stefan's reluctant gaze, Nicolas picked up the and left He said Chicken wings "since you you are sick, you can't have junk food like fried chicken for at least a month." He felt that this was the best punishment for Stefan.
He was the one in charge of the Hendrix family after all.
Even the butler was paid by Nicolas.
Everyone would follow Nicolas's orders.
