Chapter Fiancé Uncle 147
Chapter 147
Duncan strode over, grabbed Thea's wrist, and yanked her out.
Thea accidentally stepped on the cake with her high heel and lost her balance, falling to the ground.
Now, she had no choice but to change her dress.
She raised her head and looked at Duncan angrily. "Duncan, what are you doing?"
Duncan clenched his fists so tightly that his joints cracked. If not for the fact that there were so many people present, he would have slapped Thea in the face.
He pointed at Thea and scolded angrily, "What am I doing? You still have the cheek to ask me what I was doing? Is it funny, Thea?
"Emmalie was already careful enough when you're around, putting your feelings first. What I saw was you making things difficult for her endlessly.
"Now that Emmalie has made such a fool of herself, are you
satisfied?"
The cream on Emmalie's face was almost cleaned up, but the makeup was gone.
This time, she cried sincerely and sadly. She looked at Thea with accusation and hatred. "Thea, I just want to ask, what do you want me to do before you can be satisfied?"
Ivy shook her head helplessly, her eyes filled with disappointment. "Thea, I really can't do anything about you. I know you have a bad personality, but I didn't expect you to be so overboard with your family."
Many people didn't see what had happened clearly. Moreover, Thea was standing beside Emmalie. If she did anything, everyone could see it.
However, that was not important anymore. Even the Rowland family people had stood up and said that Thea was the one who did this. Everyone thought Thea did it because even her family said so. The way the surrounding people looked at Thea instantly changed.
"I think Thea does have a bad temper. Whenever she doesn't like something, she will cause trouble. Fortunately, she's not my child. Otherwise, who knows what would happen to our family."
"That's true. If I were a member of the Rowland family, I would have chased this child out earlier. It can save a lot of trouble."
"Get lost." Duncan grabbed Thea and threw her out. "Get lost!"
At this moment, a strong hand grabbed Duncan's wrist forcefully. It was so strong that it almost crushed Duncan's wrist. Duncan's expression darkened in pain. When he saw who it was, he suppressed his anger and dared not say anything. Nicolas looked at him indifferently, his eyes cold. "The matter hasn't been investigated clearly. Aren't you being biased by doing this?"
Duncan was a little dissatisfied but dared not make it too obvious. "Mr. Hendrix, you may not know this, but Thea is vicious and likes to pretend. She looks innocent on the surface, but she planned everything."
Nicolas's tone became even colder. "No matter what, you have to allow her to explain."
Everyone looked at Nicolas's protection in disbelief. 'What's going on? Isn't the woman related to him Emmalie? Why would

he speak up for Thea?'
Thea's knee was scraped, and she felt a piercing pain.

She tried her best to stabilize herself. Realizing she was still in Nicolas's arms, her face was a little hot. She quietly came out of his arms and kept a distance.
She looked at all of this coldly. As the "g words fell into her cars, her expression didn't change.
"It's still the same. No matter what happens, whether I did it or not, you would blame it on me," said Thea.
Duncan's expression darkened. "Are you saying that we've wronged you?"
"Isn't that so?" Thea's eyes were cold as she sneered. "Or perhaps, in your hearts, it doesn't matter who did it at all. What's important is to push the blame on me so that you can take the opportunity to punish me. After all..." She suddenly raised her voice. "Grandpa's will clearly said that he would leave the inheritance to me, but you guys thought of ways to send me away, wanting to occupy the inheritance.
"I can also think that you've planned everything that happened today. Otherwise, why would I target Emmalie for no
reason?"
Ivy was so frightened that her face turned pale. Her voice was a little sharp as she said, "Thea, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Duncan's expression also changed drastically. He stared at Thea with fear in his eyes.
"Why? Am I lying by saying those words too?" With that, Thea took out her phone.
She said, "Do you want me to release the chat records? How have you asked me to give up the inheritance these past few days?
"It was clearly stated in Grandpa's will that when I turn 26, the inheritance will be mine. You guys can't wait to lay your hands on me, right?"
Everyone looked at each other and thought about it carefully. They thought it made sense.
It was not a secret in the circle that the Rowland family people didn't like Thea.
This time, they had organized a grand birthday party for her. They had invited many wealthy families and even brought forward Emmalie's birthday to today. These things were strange, to begin with.
Emmalie went to change her clothes. When she came out and heard Thea's words, she almost lost her balance and cursed out, "Are you crazy?"
In the past, Thea valued kinship the most and never did anything to displease the Rowland family people.
This time, she revealed such a secret scandal.
This was great. The Rowland family people's reputation was ruined.
Emmalie cried loudly and said, "Thea, even if you're angry that I wore your dress, you can't slander your family. Everyone is doing this for your good. Would they harm you?" However, Thea only found it funny when she heard that. Her tone was filled with undisguised sarcasm.
She said, "If it were anyone else who said this,
