Nathan was detained.
This matter caused a great uproar in the Hill family.
Alaric was furious. He returned to his and Mrs. Hill's house and, upon seeing Mrs. Hill for the first time, he
immediately slapped her across the face.
Mrs. Hill covered her face and tearfully said, “Husband, | know Nathan has disappointed you again. But he is still
your son, and you must help him.”
However, Alaric completely ignored Mrs. Hill's words. At this moment, he only wanted to cut ties with Nathan. So
as to avoid being dragged down by Nathan's scandal.
He threw a divorce agreement. He angrily said, “We are going to the Public Affairs Directorate right now to get
the divorce certificate. | don’t want to see you and your foolish son ever again.”
Mrs. Hill pleaded, holding onto his legs, “Honey, you can’t abandon Nathan at this moment. I beg you, if you
don’t take care of him, he will end up in jail.”
Alaric said, “Then let him go to jail. That idiot, it's easier to have him stay inside and behave.”
Mrs. Hill threatened Alaric, “I agreed to go with you to get the certificate, but you must promiseto retrieve
him.”

Alaric sighed, “This was the last t| helped him.”
Then Alaric and Mrs. Hill went to the Public Affairs Directorate, where the divorce agreement had already been
drafted, and the two of them smoothly obtained the divorce certificate.
Alaric left in a luxury car after coming out of the Public Affairs Directorate.
Mrs. Hill, however, walked down the street with a vacant and bewildered look in her eyes.

Theo's eyes sank deep.
“I knew it.”
After saying goodbye to the doctor, Theo went straight to Thea’s ward. Thea half-closed her eyes and, upon

approaching, pretended to be drowsy and closed her eyes to
rest.
Theo sat on the chair next to her, he didn’t speak, only his deep eyes were fixed on Thea's fair face.
Thea waited for his response, for a long time, but couldn't wait any longer. She secretly opened her eyes and
met Theo's sharp
gaze.
Thea greeted him nervously, “Theodore, you came?”
As she spoke, her breath becunsteady due to the pain of her wound being pulled. Theo's coldness melted in
an instant, and his eye sockets slightly turned red.
With a mixture of concern and indulgence in his tone, he asked her, “Every tyou encounter him, you end up
hurting yourself badly. Sister, can you stay away from him?”
His eyes were clean and clear, but as he grew older, his gaze towards Thea becincreasingly gentle, like a
clear spring, intoxicating.
Thea couldn't help but raise her hand to tidy up the stray hair on his forehead and smiled, “Theodore, don’t

Theo looked solemn and asked, “And what about you?”
Unable to brush off Theo's indifference, Thea slightly straightened her posture and said, “In my lifetime, | was

him. I won't be happy, and he can forget about being happy too.”
Theo held Thea’s delicate hand, his eyes turning red as he said, “Sister, you are so good, why do you have to
associate with rotten people?”
Thea saw the intense anticipation in Theo's eyes and couldn't bear to disappoint him, so she nodded with a smile
and said, “Then | will try my best. | will strive to forget him and start a new life. Is that okay?”
Theo's eyes sparkled. “Sister, you could definitely do it.”
Suddenly, a loud noise cfrom outside the corridor, and Thea and Theo exchanged glances. Thea whispered,
“Theodore, the Hill family will not let this matter go easily. You don’t have to get involved.”
and Theo looked resolute and said, “Nathan imprisoned you even instigated the maid to harm you. He is
extremely guilty. How dare the Hill family clooking for trouble with us?”
Thea, however, felt a little guilty.
Nathan did indeed kidnap her, but he did not abuse her. He also did not harm her. However, it is true that she
destroyed his family’s famous painting and framed him for it.
In terms of the severity of the crime, her offense was probably even more serious.
She took a risk, so she couldn't involve Theo. She would never burden him.
Thea earnestly said, “Theodore, it is a crucial period for Regent

Theo was instantly stunned.
The two words “reliance” from Thea instantly brought a surge of faith in his heart.

“Alright, I had your back. I let you walk across Capital horizontally.”
“Sure.” Thea exclaimed with excitement.
The footsteps approached, and Thea signaled Theo to hide behind the screen.
Theo obediently hid away.
The next moment, Victoria burst into the ward.
She knelt down in front of Thea with a thud and tearfully pleaded, “Thea, | beg you to spare Nathan. Don’t report
him.”
Thea asked with a cold face, “Why? Is it because he stole my kidney? Or is it because he madeyour
substitute?”
Victoria's face turned pale.
“He did it just because he lovedso much. Thea, Nathan is very kind, you can’t ruin him. If he goes in, his
reputation will be ruined. He probably won't be able to recover from this stain for the rest of his life.”
Thea smirked, wasn’t that just what she wanted?

“He has today, and he deserves it”
Victoria saw that Thea was determined to kill Nathan no matter what. Suddenly, she went mad and stood up,
roaring, “Thea, you are so wicked. You think | don’t know that Nathan never harmed you. The scars on your body
were self-inflicted, and you are framing Nathan with this ploy.”
“You have already used this schon Dad once. There must be flaws. Hmph, as long as | find evidence of you
framing Nathan, | will definitely not go easy on you.”
Thea's face turned pale.
Behind the screen, Theo walked out slowly.
Victoria saw Theo and quickly seized the opportunity to sow discord. “Mr. Sanchez, you must see my sister's true
nature. She is a black-hearted evil disguised as a beauty, capable of being so ruthless towards men she once
loved. One day, she could also turn against you, her benefactor.”
Thea felt as if the mask she had been wearing was suddenly torn off, revealing her true self. She felt lost and
anxious.
