you to have any further contact with her. If you don’t divorce her, then mother will die right in front of you,” Mrs.
Hill shouted.
Nathan held her shoulders and said, “Mom, calm down. The way | am today has nothing to do with Victoria. In

Even if | didn't get a divorce, he would find other faults and kickout of the Hill Group. | heard this with my
own ears...”
Mrs. Hill was dumbfounded.
“What did you say?” She could hardly believe it, the man who had shared the sbed with her for years, could
be so heartless towards her and her child.
Mrs. Hill's originally lively eyes turned dull and lifeless. Nathan realized something was wrong, but his words had
already been spoken and could not be taken back.
“Mom, believe me, | was able to retrieve what belongs to me.”
Mrs. Hill's eyes suddenly shot out a hateful glare, and she clenched her fists, fiercely saying, “Your father

In the dance floor, light songs and graceful dances created a harmonious atmosphere.
As a song ended, the newly switched music becmore lyrical. The tender music made many couples who
were in love take to the dance floor.
Alaric held his successor’s wife in his arms, dancing a close dance in the center of the ballroom.
Theo glanced at Thea, who was sitting there quietly, and opened his mouth, wanting to persuade Thea to dance
with him. Just then, Jewel appeared out of nowhere and looked at Theo with anticipation, saying, “Theo, would
you dance withinstead?”
Theo didn’t want to dance with someone he didn’t like, so he had to cup with an excuse. “Sorry, | can’t
dance.”

Jewel persisted, “How about you accompanyfor the next dance?”
Theo kept silent.
“Sorry, | wouldn't do the next one either.”
Jewel said nothing.
Just at that moment, Guillermo walked over again, dressed in a white suit today, with golden dots on it, making
him look very dazzling.
He elegantly extended his hand to Thea and said, “Ms. Thea, may | ask you to dance?”

Thea glanced at Jewel and Theo, she didn’t want to be a third wheel and couldn't wait to escape from here. So
she stood up confidently.
Theo's face instantly turned as black as soot, and he swiftly moved his body to separate Guillermo and Thea.
“I'm sorry, but Thea couldn't dance.” The possessiveness was strong.
Guillermo angrily exclaimed, “Theo, Ms. Thea did not reject me. Who are you to speak for her? Besides, when did
Ms. Thea becyours?”
Theo turned around and looked at Thea, his gaze intense and his expression solemn. “Sister, it’s enough for a
person to encounter a scumbag once in their lifetime. You should stay away from those men who appear to be
gold and jade on the outside but are actually rotten inside.”
Guillermo was furious, blowing his mustache and glaring, “Theo, who did you say is a scumbag?”
Theo, fearing that Thea might be deceived by Guillermo, exaggeratedly criticized him, saying, “It's you we're
talking about. You bring women hevery other day, you're a notorious playboy. Thea is traditional at heart,
she’s not on the spath as you.”
Guillermo was furious. “You slandered me.”
The two brothers were about to start fighting.
Thea quickly pulled Theo aside and politely declined Guillermo. “Mr. Sanchez, I'm very sorry, but | wouldn't
dance.”

Theo killed two birds with one stone. “Although Thea and | don’t know how to dance, both you and Ms. Fletcher
do. Since you both are looking for dance partners anyway, why don’t you two dance together?”
Guillermo couldn't help but save face for the Fletcher family, so he had to settle for second best. “Ms. Ho, would
you kindly grace us with a dance?”
Jewel “humphed” and arrogantly tossed her head before leaving.
Guillermo stood awkwardly in place, while Theo covered his mouth and chuckled.
Guillermo glared at him fiercely and said, “You were rotten to the core.”
Theo laughed heartily, “Who said you were not charming?”
Guillermo swept his sleeves and left.
Theo escorted Jewel and Guillermo away, but he himself voluntarily invited Thea to dance. “Sister, will you dance
with me? Otherwise, we will always be bothered by someone.”
Thea was dumbfounded.
“Weren't you unable to dance?”
Theo justified himself, saying, “Indeed, my dancing skills were not good, but my sister is family after all. I'didn’t
feel embarrassed or ashamed in front of my sister.”
Thea believed it to be true and said, “Okay, | will accompany

Theo held Thea’s hand and walked into the dance floor.
Just this song, with its beautiful melody, required the dancing men and women to stick together and make some
very intimate moves.
Thea was a bit awkward, unsure of where to place her hands. Theo took her hands directly and placed them on

Thea’s body moved away, trying to maintain the necessary distance from Theo. However, when the music
started playing, Theo gently pulled her, and her body fell into his
arms.
Theo was tall in stature, while she was petite in figure. Theo becthe master, and no matter how she

Thea'’s pupils dilated, and her eyes were filled with panic.
She didn’t want to be disfigured.
Mrs. Hill seemed to be stimulated by something, as her hands. waved restlessly, occasionally squirting sulfuric
acid, making a hissing sound.
Several times, sulfuric acid passed over Thea’s body.
Thea closed her eyes in fear.
Just at that moment, her body was suddenly lifted into the air and spun around. When she opened her eyes, she
saw Theo using his back to shield Mrs. Hill, becoming her human shield. He was covering her with his own body.
And his expression was quite painful.
Thea's face turned pale...
