Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle

Chapter 268

"Emmalic?" Thea probed tentatively. She prided herself on being kind, and aside from Emmalie, no one would resort to such cruel tactics against her,

From Amelia's eyes, she couldn't glean any insight. Amelia truly was useless; her only real talent was acting.

"We've only crossed paths a few times when necessary, Thea. You're so eager to drag her into this. Are you hoping to use me to eliminate your rivals?" Amelia said. "You're right," Thea admitted candidly.

Amelia sneered. "You really are as shameless as ever, trying to use me to do your dirty work? Not a chance.

Amelia was stubborn. Thea understood but refused to back down easily. She maneuvered her electric wheelchair, the tires seeming to have a mind of their own.

The weighted wheels rolled over Amelia's hand again and again. No matter how light Thea was, it would cause Amelia immense pain.

"Does it hurt? When you drove into me, my injuries were far worse than what you're feeling now." Listening to Amelia's wails, Thea felt no sympathy. "Your stubbornness is a good thing. We can have a little competition. Let's see if your mouth is tougher or my tires are." She continued to press down repeatedly, causing cold sweat to bead on Amelia's forehead. Outside, the sounds of her cries were painfully clear. Darwin trembled a bit. "Mr. Hendrix, Mrs. Hendrix wouldn't really kill her, right? I'm just worried about how this would look at the police station."

"A nobody? What's there to fear?" Nicolas scoffed coldly. "If Thea wants to play, let her. No matter what happens, I can take the heat for her."

At that, Darwin fully resigned himself. Both of them were complete lunatics, only caring about their own amusement.

Half an hour later, Thea was still thoroughly enjoying herself. Amelia's hand had lost all sensation, yet Thea showed no signs of letting up. Her other hand was still perfectly fine. Thea didn't believe Amelia drove with just one hand.

Since Amelia dared to hit her, she should also be prepared to face the consequences.

Amelia's mental defenses were crumbling under the relentless pain, her lips pale and trembling. "What I did has nothing to do with Emmalie. Thea, the only thing you can do is act tough in front of me. If you really had any skill, why not go after April? She's the mistress of the Viper's boss. Do you have what it takes to confront her?".

'April? So, she's also involved in this murder?' Thea thought, processing the information. A cold smile curled at Thea's lips as she raised Amelia's chin. "How did you two, who are so unrelated, end up connected?"

They were forced to lock eyes. Amelia realized in horror that Thea had indeed been with Nicolas long enough to absorb his chilling intensity.

Thea's presence was so overwhelming that Amelia felt utterly helpless. "She approached me first. Thea, it's all your be so shameless, enticing other people's boyfriends. You even didn't let the Viper's boss go." fault to

"The rumors have spread this far? The Viper?' Thea didn't need to think to know it was clearly related to Corey. Those two siblings are lunatics.'Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

O The bright light seemed to signal hope for Amelia. "Mr. Hendrix don't be fooled by Thea's innocent facade. She's fundamentally a promiscuous bitch. Since high school, she's never stopped her manipulative ways. She stole my boyfriend and caused my mother's death. She deserves to rot in hell."

A barrage of curses filled the air, prompting Thea to recall some unpleasant memories. "Boyfriend? Amelia, are you talking about that thug from sophomore year? The one who cornered you in the restroom after you broke up with him?"

Amelia screamed back, "Don't twist the story! He was only testing my loyalty. If you hadn't interfered, we might have been married by now, in front of our friends and family."

Mentioning the man sent Amelia into a frenzy. "Because of you, he was sent abroad by his parents, and to this day, I have no idea if he's alive or dead... He probably has no idea I've been waiting for him all these years." Thea understood now. It turned out that all this chaos stemmed from good intentions gone wrong.

The first time Thea met Amelia was in the girls' restroom in high school, right after Emmalie had returned to the Rowland family, bringing with her a whirlwind of trouble.

The Rowland family's attitude toward Thea had taken a nosedive during that time. Filled with rage, Thea had confronted some girls who were harassing a drenched Amelia and taught them a lesson.

At that point, Thea had still been the untouchable darling of her family. No one dared to mess with her. She'd never claimed to be a good person, but rescuing Amelia was one of the few decent things she had done. Little did she know that this would become the reason for Amelia's hatred, blaming Thea for ruining her chances at happiness.

"Stop looking so confused. I saw you sending him private messages. Weren't you trying to seduce him? Thea, you're nothing but a bitch. Whenever you see a man, you just want to latch on to him," Amelia said. Before Thea could respond, Nicolas stepped in, swiftly silencing Amelia with a firm grip over her mouth. Nicolas never hit women unless they crossed a line, and Thea was his line. He couldn't tolerate anyone speaking ill of her. "The man you're so obsessed with isn't worth everyone's admiration... At least, I don't possess such high standards," Thea said with difficulty. "As for those messages, he was the one who texted me first.

"Amelia, do you truly not know why he was sent away by his parents? He asked me out under your name and drugged me, nearly ruining my reputation."

Ivy, furious about Thea bringing shame to the family, sent her abroad without even investigating the truth of the situation.

Those were the darkest, most trying times for Thea. The only bright spot was when she saved Nicolas. Even after being hurt and betrayed by him later, she never lost her initial kindness.

"Ivy may not care for me, but she wouldn't let that thug tarnish my reputation and the Rowland family's name any further. That man's disappearance is hardly a loss for him. He was already very lucky," Thea said, her tone flat. Given everything she had endured, the thug could die a thousand times without a shred of pity.

"You're talking nonsense. He only has eyes for me. Even if he were blind, he wouldn't touch you with a ten-foot pole," Amelia replied confidently.

But even if Amelia had undergone a makeover, she could never measure up to Thea, not even a fraction. Thea couldn't fathom where Amelia's confidence came from. She only felt weary.

As exhaustion crept into her features, Nicolas tightened his grip on the wheelchair's armrest. "Cameron said you need ample rest. How do you plan to handle this? Leave it to Darwin." Amelia had done so much wrong. She needed to face the consequences.

Thea glanced at Amelia's bloodied hand and let a cold smile a lack of warning signs on the highway from Silvercreek to K for their precinct."
