Fiancé Uncle 297
The first person that came to Thea's mind was actually herself. After all, Thea was the only person in the world who bore all of Ivy's malice.
Seeing the self-deprecation in Thea's eyes, Nicolas only had time to tighten his grip on her. "Technology is advanced now. Even if Duncan and Emmalie think that no one knew what they did, the police will still find out everything about them." According to the latest news from the police, Emmalie was overwhelmed and revealed some information. She claimed that it all had nothing to do with her.
Thea was not even in the mood now to think about this matter.
She looked at the tightly shut door of the operating theater in front of her in a daze. Her eyes were brewing with rage. "There are always some people who ignore the existence of the police and think that they can do anything."
Thea laughed coldly. She stood guard in front of the operating theater and did not move an inch.
When Max heard the news, he could not think about shirking responsibility anymore. He staggered over and leaned against: the door of the operating theater, crying, "Mom! You raised us siblings and suffered a lot. You haven't enjoyed any happiness yet. Now that I've become successful and can give you a better life, how could you bear to leave us?"
His murmurs won many praises. People were all praising Max for being filial.
On the other hand, Thea, who had a cold expression on her face, naturally became the one who was despised endlessly. Everyone was scolding Thea for being ruthless.
Thea sneered. "She's not dead yet. Why are you in such a hurry to mourn?"
Max was the typical example of someone who wanted people to think he was filial.
If Ivy had really passed away today due to an accident, he would definitely have held the funeral in a grand manner.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
busy back then. However, he was the one who had claimed that he was.
Thea found it ironic.
Max was stung by the mockery in Thea's eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, and he even ignored Nicolas's existence. "You beast! Thea, you've always blamed Mom and us for being biased, but have you ever thought about it? You're cold-blooded and can't hold a candle to Emmalie. Perhaps it was you who tried to kill Mom this time.
"Our Rowland family's biggest mistake was to raise an evil creature like you. You've never even thought of helping our family at critical moments."
Ivy was in trouble and Duncan and Emmalie were in jail. During this period of time, Max was almost suffocated by the pressure of public opinion. He almost desperately wanted to pin all the blame on Thea.
He raised his palm high, but in the end, his slap did not land successfully
Nicolas restrained Max's wrist. When the two men of similar height stood together, it was obvious who was stronger. "Mr. Rowland, you need evidence to speak and act."
Nicolas's lips curled up slightly. "Do you mean that Thea's trip here has become a mistake? Instead, it has become an excise for you to pin the blame on her."
Nicolas's powerful and cold aura pressed down on Max until he almost could not breathe. Max suddenly sobered up and his face turned pale from the pain. "Mr. Hendrix, that's not what I meant. "Since that's not the case, I hope Mr. Rowland won't say such things in the future. After all, you're the CEO of a company

You should be responsible for your words and actions." Nicolas sneered. His threat was clear. "Unless you want Rowland Group to cease to exist?" Max shut up. With Nicolas around, he would never be able to lay a hand on Thea.
"Nicolas, let him go." Thea's voice was cold and disdainful. "Ivy's biological son has come all the way here from afar. Let's not be an eyesore here anymore." At this moment, the door of the operating theater opened. The doctor walked out from inside. His fatigue was hidden under
his mask.
Thea turned around slowly and uncontrollably fixed her gaze on him.
Everyone held their breath and waited for the final answer.
The doctor let out a long sigh. "Which one of you is her family member? I'm sorry to inform you that the wound is too deep. She's already gone."
Thea was dumbstruck. She couldn't believe it.
Ivy had done many wrong things, but it was undeniable that Ivy was an amazing woman to be able to raise the four of them single-handedly.
She might not be a good mother, but after all, she had given Thea life.
Tears came out of Thea's eyes uncontrollably. She had mixed feelings and muttered, "She's gone? What do you mean? Doctor, is the person inside called Ivy? She has always been in good health. How could she suddenly..." Halfway through her sentence, Thea could not continue. Her legs were weak. If not for Nicolas's careful support, Thea would have fallen. No matter how deep she took a breath, she could not ease her emotions.
Meanwhile, Max was much calmer than she had imagined. He quickly contacted the funeral home and called the police
station.
With the death of their mother, Duncan and Emmalie had reason to be bailed out to attend the funeral.
Each of them surrounded Ivy's body and cried sincerely or insincerely. Emmalie even fainted a few times.
Meanwhile, Thea just watched coldly from the side and did not disturb their warm moment.
Thea snapped out of her daze and whispered to Nicolas beside her, "Let's go."
She didn't have the patience to watch their show. Compared to crying, she wanted to know who caused Ivy's death.
Nicolas lowered his eyes and glanced at Thea's pale face. He firmly held her arm.
After taking a few steps, a figure blocked their path.
Emmalic looked weak, but there was determination on her face Thea know that you've been harboring dissatisfactor in your heart since I returned home. But if you have any grudges, you can target me alone. Why did you harm Moin? Emmalie gritted her teeth in hatred. She had made up her mund to frame Thea
Before Thea could deny it, she heard Emmalie strike while the Hon was hot. The doctors, nurses, and even the surveillance cameras showed that you were the last person to enter Mom's ward As soon as you left, something happened to Moun. How could you kill your mother?"
There were no surveillance cameras in the ward, only the corridor.
Emmalie shouted at the top of her lungs. She could not wait to condemn Thea.
Once this crime was established, Thea would never have a chance to make a comeback. Not only would Thea be morally condemned, but she could not escape from the law either.
Thea's eyes flashed. She grabbed Emmalie's hand. "What did you say? I was the last person to enter the ward? Where's the caregiver?"
When she was talking to Ivy, the caregiver had always been by Ivy's side and had never left.
Thea's grip was strong, and it hurt Emmalie.
Duncan immediately became protective. "Do you have to get physical? Are you not contented with killing Mom? Do you want to kill Emmalie too? Thea, you're really becoming more and more inhumane."" The endless reprimands were all blocked by Nicolas's tall figure. Wherever his gaze landed, no one dared to say anything bad about Thea.
Thea said, "Didn't the surveillance cameras capture any traces of the caregiver?"
