Chapter 119

"Don't go." Thea muttered as she tightened her grip. Tm scared)

Nicolas's expression changed slightly. He maintained his posture and asked softly, "Do you know who I am?

"Yes" Thea pantes slightly. She seemed more uncomfortable but still couldn't bear to let go. "You're Nicolas, so please don't leave, okay?"

Nicolas's heart seemed to have been knocked lightly by something, and the strange feeling spread throughout his limbs

Especially the place where Thea was holding his hand. It was a little hot and numb.

Nicolas's tone softened. I'm not leaving. I'll take you to the hospital first."

Thea nodded and obediently let him carry her.

She rested her head against his chest.

Listening to Nicolas's steady and strong heartbeat, Thea felt a sense of security she had never felt before surrounding her. She gradually calmed down, her breathing stabilized, and she fell asleep.

She didn't know how long she had slept. When she opened her eyes again, it was already dusk outside.

Looking around in a daze, Thea's mind went blank momently.

Then, everything that had happened before surged over like a tide. The feeling of suffocation and powerlessness surrounded her again.

Until she heard a click in her ear.

Someone turned on the lights, and Thea's frustration eased.

Nicolas strode over and immediately checked the temperature of her forehead.

After confirming that her fever had subsided, his expression eased a lot.

He straightened up, his expression still impassive.

Thea was even in a daze momently. It was as if the gentleness she felt last night was just an illusion.

Nicolas said. "You don't have to worry about Madelyn. I've already found a witness and will prove your innocence. But Jake is one of the Hendrix family. I can't do anything to him now. It's best if you don't have any contact with them during this period." "Nicolas," Thea couldn't help but say, "You were seen when you took me away last night. Do you need me to explain?"

Nicolas didn't say anything and just looked at her.

After some silence, he said, "There's no need. Let nature take its course. Besides, they might not think in that direction. Rest assured and recuperate first."

Hearing that, Thea couldn't describe how she was feeling. It was as if she was relieved but also a little disappointed.

Nicolas was still unwilling to reveal their relationship.

'It doesn't matter. It's a temporary relationship, to begin with. It will be troublesome if we make it public. With that thought in mind. Thea felt tired again. She closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Chapter 119

After that, Then stayed in the hospital for a few days. She didn't want to pay attention to what was going on in the outside world.

It was as if she had locked herself in a cage. She didn't feel bored, Instead, she felt like she could breathe.

Thea's physical and mental condition was much better on the fourth day.

During these few days, Nicolas didn't appear. Every time she saw Darwin coming alone, Thea couldn't help but feel disappointed.

She had asked why Nicolas was unwilling to come to the hospital to see her.

Darwin only explained, "Mrs. Hendrix, don't overthink it. It's not that Mr. Hendrix is unwilling, but he has too many things to do and doesn't have time to come. Rest well and recuperate. Only then will Mr. Hendrix be at ease." Thea felt bitter in her heart. She knew that these were just words to comfort her.

She looked out of the window. I'm almost recovered. I can be discharged now. I've been in the hospital for long and very bored. You don't have to follow me. I want to ge

go out for a walk"

After being discharged, she took a few steps and met Ivy at the hospital's entrance.

There was some distance between them.

They looked at each other from afar. Ivy seemed to want to say something. But Thea looked away indifferently and turned to leave before she could say anything.

"Thea." Ivy was unwilling to give up. She quickly chased after her and grabbed her wrist.

Seeing it, Thea wanted to pull her hand away. But she realized Ivy was strong. The place where Ivy grabbed her was also burning with pain.

Thea's eyes turned cold. "Mrs. Rowland, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to treat a patient who has just been discharged, like this."

Hearing the way Thea addressed her, Ivy's face stiffened slightly

I'll make you delicious food She let and smiled gently. "I know you're not feeling well and don't want to contact your family. It took me some effort to find out which hospital you're in. I see that you've lost a lot of weight. Come home with me. that's good for your health." Thea rubbed her swollen wrist and didn't look at her..

She only said, "There's no need for that. When I was in Yurtinas in the past, I experienced all kinds of things. A situation like this time is not rare.

"No, that's not right. After all, I was lucky this time. Someone happened to be beside me when I was sick.

1 would faint on the streets alone and be treated like a vagrant. There was once when I was almost molested. I propped up my weak body and fought with that person.

"I was lucky. He was scared away by my reckless appearance."

she was talking about whether the weather was

Thea's tone was indifferent. When she mentioned these things, it was as if s good today.

Ivy felt a little embarrassed. Her face was burning with awkwardness, but she gritted her teeth and spoke in a tough tone "Yes, I shouldn't have sent you away back then, but what can I do? Not only did you bully your classmates in school, but you Chapter 119

even made friends with a group of dirty hooligans outside the school.

"If Emmalie hadn't told me that something was wrong with you in time that day, I would have searched all over Bangolware with me men. Otherwise, you would have already gone overboard. If you followed them and took illegal drugs, your life would have been ruined. "Your father and I have never done anything wrong, and we were very strict with your education. Who would have thought that you would be so disobedient!

"Now that your father and Danean are far away in a foreign country, I'm the only one at home. What else can I do except send you out to temper your temper?

After saying that, Ivy covered her face and cried like a helpless mother facing her disobedient child.

Only then did Thea turn around and look at her. She said faintly, That's right. Maybe I should thank you for putting in so much effort for a disobedient child. But am I really as insensible and disobedient as you think?"

wrong you I know

Ivy suddenly stopped crying. She raised her head and frowned. I saw what happened that day. I didn't that you liked to push the blame on Emmalie whenever something happened since you were young. But Thea, you made mistake yourself. You can't possibly tell me that I'm sorry. But that's the truth. With that thought in mind, Thea sneered.

This conversation with Ivy brought her back to many years ago,

At that time, she was still in high school. She was in the same school as

Emmalie.

At that time, her relationship with Emmalie couldn't be any worse.

Thea herself could not understand it either. Emmalie was particularly obedient and cute when she was young. The two sisters were also especially close.

But after Emmalie was kidnapped and found again, it was as if she had become different. She pretended to be pitiful in front of Ivy and the others. Whenever she fell or hit herself, she would frame Thea.
