Chapter 1392
Theo walked up to Thaddeus calmly, exuding a powerful aura. His face was serious, yet he managed to maintain a
humble and polite demeanor.
“Mr. Thaddeus, I’m Theo. Your daughter and I are just friends, so your previous way of addressing me was
incorrect. Please, just call me Theo.”
Thaddeus smirked with a hint of annoyance. “Incorrect? You and my daughter are already legally married. If you’re
not my son-in-law, then who is?”
“Sophia and I got the marriage certificate only to convince my father to accept surgery. This was a mutual
agreement between your daughter and me. The agreement clearly states that the marriage certificate is only to

certificate.”
As Theo finished speaking, he gave a slight nod.
Then Collin stepped forward and handed the agreement to Thaddeus.
Thaddeus glanced at the agreement. His face was stern, and he did not take it.
Theo continued, “If you have any displeasure with this agreement, feel free to voice your conditions. As long as it’s
reasonable, I’ll do my best to meet them, and I’m willing to compensate Sophia as much as possible.”
Collin offered the agreement to Thaddeus again. “Mr. Thaddeus, please take a look at this agreement.”
Thaddeus didn’t look. He swatted the agreement away and scoffed, “You think my daughter needs your
compensation?!”
Theo’s expression didn’t waver at Thaddeus’s reaction. He calmly asked, “So, Mr. Thaddeus, what are your
thoughts? Don’t hold back.”
Thaddeus swung his wrist menacingly and sneered. “My daughter lacks for nothing; what can you do to
compensate her?
Sophia is my treasure, whom you tricked into getting a marriage certificate, and now you want to casually abandon
her? What do you think my daughter is? A commodity to take when you want and discard when you don’t?
I am telling you now. You must take responsibility for my daughter!”
Theo corrected him calmly. “I’ve never deceived Sophia. She fully knows the reason and purpose for the certificate,
and she volunteered to help. I appreciate Sophia’s assistance then and am willing to compensate her as much as
possible, but regretfully, I can’t take responsibility for her. Uhave a family and a child on the way. My wife and child
are who I truly need to be responsible for.”

Thaddeus raised an eyebrow and said sarcastically, “You’re responsible for this girl named Ellinor, while my
daughter, a girl in the prime of her life, is left a divorced
woman.
You’ve caused such immense psychological and reputational harm to my daughter. Do you think I’d allow you and
this Ellinor to live happily ever after?”
Seeing the malicious intent in Thaddeus’s eyes as he mentioned Ellinor, Theo stared back at him intensively and
said, “Mr. Thaddeus, you may not know this, but before I asked Sophia to get the certificate, I had made ample
preparations, allowing myself enough time to terminate our marriage directly.
So, my purpose in approaching Sophia this time is to dissolve the marriage, not a divorce.
Dissolving a marriage and divorce are different. After the dissolution, there will be no trace left in Sophia’s record
and no substantial relationship between us whatsoever, everything will be clear.
Even so, I’m still willing to do my best to thank her because she helped me.”
Thaddeus sneered. “You sure make it sound easy.
