Chapter 328: Chapter 329

Chapter 329 After reading the message sent by the other party, Theo frowned and deleted the message. He closed his computer with anger.

Perhaps feeling too frustrated, he, who was usually calm and composed, unexpectedly grabbed his own hair.

Then Theo stood up again and paced back and forth in the room. His gaze occasionally glanced towards the door, but unable to resist his longing for Thea, he once again went to Thea’s room.

This time, he pulled a stool and sat at the head of Thea’s bed, quietly gazing at her face. His eyes were filled with deep affection, too much reluctance, and too much tenderness.

He couldn’t help but hold her hand and pressed it against his face. It was unknown how long had passed, but he eventually fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, when Thea woke up, she saw that Theo had his hand resting under his face. He hadn’t even taken off his clothes, indicating how rushed he must have been last night. Despite being in such a hurry, he hadn’t forgotten to come and see her.

Thea suddenly felt that her numerous speculations and suspicions about Theo were too heartless. She gently withdrew her hand and then caressed his cheek.

“Theodore, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you,” she thought to herself.

“Sister, are you awake?” He forcefully grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it.

Thea whispered softly, “Theodore, go to bed.”

Theo was overjoyed.

He elegantly took off his coat and then jumped onto the bed. He pulled the blanket over and covered himself.

The action was completed in one go.

Then, happily looking at Thea, he said, “Sister, will you sleep with me for a while?” He leaned against her and acted spoiled.

Thea gently caressed his cheek and said, “Sleep well. I’ll be with you.”

Theo held her and buried his face in her shoulder.

“Sister, why didn’t you wait for me last night?” he suddenly asked.

Thea paused for a moment, unsure why she seemed to hear Theo’s voice sounding lonely and melancholic.

Thea felt very guilty. “Last night, Kassidy was feeling a bit off. After comforting her, I was mentally scattered. I forgot about you.

I’m sorry, Theodore.”

Theo sighed and said, “Sister, I was not your number one.”

Thea’s heart ached for a moment.

He contentedly entered the sweet dreamland.

The sound of even snoring rose and fell one after another.

Thea’s gaze fell on the phone that was peeking out of his pocket, and she thought that perhaps she could find the answer to her doubts in his phone. However, Thea ultimately did not overstep her own boundaries.

She chose to believe Theo.

The Fletcher family.

Mr. Fletcher closely monitored the performance changes of the Fletcher family, but ever since Jewel went to the Browns for assistance, the Fletcher family’s performance has not improved but instead declined, and it was a devastating blow.

Mr. Fletcher was extremely anxious. He held a shareholders‘ meeting overnight and made an exception by allowing his son, daughter–in–law, and even his granddaughter Jewel to attend the meeting.

At the meeting, Mr. Fletcher anxiously implored the shareholders to find a way to delay or alter the situation of Fletcher Company. The shareholders could only shake their heads and sigh, except for Jewel, who had complete confidence in the future prospects.

“I have already asked Mr. Brown to come forward and assist 32.65%

Mr. Fletcher was worried. “Jewel, since the Browns promised to help you, why has it been several days and there is still no news from their side?”

At this moment, the receptionist of the company suddenly made a phone call, “President, a woman claiming to be Mr. Brown’s secretary is here to visit.”

Mr. Fletcher was overjoyed and said, “Quickly, please invite her in.”

The person who came was a beautiful and elegant woman, but extremely aloof. The first thing she said upon arrival was, “My master said that the Fletcher family is on the verge of breaking apart, and there is only one solution: a grand reunion.”

The girl finished saying this sentence and then turned around and left.

Mr. Fletcher looked puzzled. “What does ‘X‘ mean?”

The shareholders looked at each other in surprise and then shook their heads one after another.

Mr. Fletcher, on the other hand, had lost all color in his face.

Reunion, in essence, is to help them regain their lost bloodline. But if that’s the case, wouldn’t the scandal of the Fletcher family back then be exposed as well?

future?

Unless absolutely necessary, Lord Fletcher did not want to make this move.

After the meeting, Mr. Fletcher called Jewel into his private office.

He was both shocked and skeptical. “How does he know our Fletcher family’s secret? Such a hidden secret, how does he know?” He repeated this sentence over and over again, showing his awe towards the Browns‘ unfamiliar young boy.

“Did you tell him? Jewel, tell me honestly, did you tell him about the scandal of our Fletcher family?”

Jewel looked aggrieved and said, “Grandfather, to be honest, I have only heard a little about the scandal involving the Fletcher family and I do not know the details. I cannot disclose this matter to anyone.”

Mr. Fletcher was puzzled. “How did he know then? Since the Fletcher family didn’t disclose it, it can only be Thea who leaked it.

Hmph, this woman is really troublesome.”

Jewel said, “Grandfather, as far as I know, he resided in the basement and hardly ever received visitors. Thea never had a chance to meet him.”

Mr. Fletcher wondered, “Then how did he know the Fletcher family’s hidden secret?”

After thinking for a while, Lord Fletcher realized that in order to find the truth, he needed to start from the source. He eagerly asked Jewel, “Tell me about your grandfather, what kind of person was he?”

Jewel replayed the image of the mysterious man in the basement in her mind over and over again. “Although he had a leg ailment, there were no visible traces of any lingering effects. He always stood tall with a straight spine, was quite tall in stature, and had a lean figure. I never saw his full face, but just from his profile, I could tell that his features were incredibly handsome, the most attractive side profile I had ever seen. Moreover, his demeanor was extremely noble. More noble than any wealthy heir I had ever encountered. And...”

Jewel paused for a moment, cleared her throat, and said, “He was very introverted and seemed to dislike talking. However, when he spoke, every word seemed to carry great weight. He never spoke unnecessarily.”

Lord Fletcher didn’t care about his appearance. “What about his abilities then? From what you know, is he really as legendary as the Fletcher family people say?”
