Chapter 239 Nathan hung up the phone and looked out the window at the dimly lit night.
Why did his heart ache when he found out that Victoria was sick?
Knowing full well that she was hypocritical and not worthy of his deep love, he still loved her as if it were imprinted in his very marrow. It was his instinct.
Hospital.
Thea sat in the car and saw Nathanâs car approaching from a distance. A clever smile spread across her face.
With delicate jadeâlike hands resting on the car door, her meticulously manicured nails shimmered with a sparkling white glow under the streetlight. Gracefully opening the door, Thea, dressed in a vibrant red vest dress, resembled a bundle of passionate fire as she walked towards the entrance of the hospital, swaying her graceful figure, âThea,â Nathan suddenly called out to him from behind.
Theaâs lips curled slightly, and she turned around slowly.
A hunter revealed a triumphant smile upon seeing the prey.
Nathan was momentarily taken aback by the stunning appearance of Thea.

Theaâs eyes revealed a strong sense of mockery as she said, âNathan, being your wife, I was so poor that I could barely afford to eat. How could I have the mood to dress myself up?â
Nathan drooped his face and said in a gloomy tone, âIâm sorry.â
Thea turned her head and walked forward, saying, âYou have so many places to apologize to me.â
Nathan followed Thea into the elevator. It wasnât until both of them arrived at Victoriaâs room that Nathan realized, âAre you here to see Victoria too?â
Thea shrugged, âShe was my sister, she was sick. I came to visit her, is there a problem?â
Nathan looked at Theaâs exquisite outfit and couldnât help but laugh, âYou seem to have a different intention than just going to the bar.â
Thea ignored him and pushed open the door of the ward, walking grandly towards Victoria, Victoria leaned against the headboard, in a lazy halfâreclining position. Coupled with her illness, her face appeared gaunt, with a waxen yellow complexion, making her look particularly haggard.
But when Victoria saw Thea and Nathan walking in, one after the other, she burst into life like a dying Eugénie Grandet seeing gold, suddenly radiating with all her strength. Victoria sat up straight, instantly switching into battle mode.
1621 D Chapter 239 âThea, what did you come here for?â
Thea sat gracefully in front of her smiling brightly and said, âSister, of course I came to see you.â
Victoria looked at Theaâs luxurious silk dress, both.the craftsmanship and the design were topânotch. Instantly, jealousy arose in her heart.
âYou dressed up so extravagantly one would think you came to seduce men instead of visiting a patient,â Victoria sarcastically insulted Thea.
Thea didnât say a word, she just seductively glanced at Nathan. Nathan immediately felt embarrassed and stood frozen in place, as if he had been violated by Theaâs alluring gaze.
Thea remained silent, but her silence spoke louder than words. This made Victoria even more furious, her face turning pale.
âHusband, why did you come with her?â Victoria knocked over the vinegar bottle and hung her face, looking very unhappy.
Nathan explained, âI happened to meet Thea downstairs.â
Victoria muttered, âHow could such a coincidence happen?â
Thea smiled and said nothing.
Yeah, thereâs no such thing as a coincidence in this world. It was just her deliberately waiting at the hospital entrance, waiting for Nathan for several hours.
Nathan was questioned by Victoria and he was quite unhappy. âI have already explained it to you, it was just a coincidence.â
1621 1 Chapter 239 228 not that I Victoria didnât dare to offend Nathan. âNathan, itâ donât trust you, I donât trust her. Maybe she deliberately waited for you at the hospital, just to have a staged encounter with you.â
Nathan paused for a moment, looking thoughtfully at Thea.
Seeing her dressed up today, unusually, Victoriaâs doubts were not unfounded.
Thea, on the other hand, had mastered Victoriaâs tea art skills to perfection. She defended herself openly, saying, âDonât worry, a goodâhorse doesnât eat grass from behind. Nathan was just a used shoe to me. Only you considered him precious. In my eyes, I wouldnât marry him even if I had to marry a cat or a dog. I wonât fall into the same pit twice.â
Nathanâs face turned dark.
Thea placed his face under her feet and rubbed it.
But he didnât want to confront Thea headâon. He considered it his debt to her, so he let her vent her anger at him.
Nathanâs silence infuriated Victoria, and she whimpered, âNathan, she humiliated you like that. Can you still remain calm?â
Nathan said, âA good man does not fight with women.â
Victoria was speechless.
Theaâs eerie gaze kept wandering between Nathan and Victoria, as she sensed a certain disconnect between the couple.
Victoria was secretly unhappy and had a very unpleasant expression on her face.
Nathan, however, changed the subject. âVictoria, I will go and ask your attending physician about your condition.â
After Nathan left, the atmosphere in the ward ignited like a spark reaching its ignition point, suddenly bursting into flames.
The war between the two women had officially reached a white- hot level.
Victoriaâs face was covered in frost, her eyes glaring like copper bells, emitting a towering resentment. âThea, donât pretend to be innocent and pure. Your bitch scent may have fooled Nathan, that big oaf, but it canât fool me.â
Thea used her gentle approach to overcome the strong, and she smiled gracefully, saying, âSister, didnât I learn this tea art of mine from you?â
Victoria was furious. âSince you donât like Nathan, why did you go to great lengths to get close to him?â
Thea didnât hide it either. âSister, you are really forgetful. I have said that anything that belongs to me, I will take it back. Nathan is like that, and so is the kidney. Although, things that others have used are quite dirty, I would rather have it stay in the trash can than stay by your side.â
Victoria was so angry that she couldnât control her emotions. âThea, you are overestimating yourself. Where do you get the confidence to make Nathan fall in love with you? Let me tell you, Nathan has never loved you before, and it wonât in the future either.â
1621 Chapter 259 283 Woucher Thea covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly, âSister, who cares about the love of a scumbag! Youâre the one who cares.â
Thea suddenly lowered her voice and whispered in a volume only the two of them could hear, âIâm getting close to Nathan, but only to snatch away all your loved ones one by one. You see, I give him a little bit of sweetness and he becomes all eager to please me. Heâll drive me home one moment, bring me flowers the next, and invite me to be his companion... Sister, heâs so attentive to me, arenât you afraid heâll turn his back on you?â
Victoria was so angry that she was trembling all over.
âOh, I almost forgot that my sister is a parasite. If your host loses interest in you, sister, what would you do? At that time, you might have to live with your poor and sickly parents in the slums.â
Victoria trembled with fear at the thought of her current situation. She glared at Thea with resentment, lacking confidence as she said, âIâm afraid I will disappoint you. Nathan will never abandon me. He loves me so much.â
