Chapter 398: Chapter 399

Chapter 398 Thea’s eyes suddenly turned cold, her once delicate face contorted with hatred. “He murdered my family member Theodore, how could I possibly befriend him? I just want... to get close to him, and then defeat him.”

Her fist clenched tightly.

Ava sighed.

Immediately, Thea actively offered suggestions, “Thea, the President of the Capital Chamber of Commerce recently organized an industry exchange meeting, and the heirs of the top four influential families are among the invited guests. I can help you find tickets... so that you have the opportunity to meet Nathan.”

Thea’s first thought was to go straight to Nathan’s house with a powerful aura of 26,000 and avoid all the trouble. But then she reconsidered, as she was now the head of the Fletcher Group and since she was discussing business with him, it would be better to stick to business principles – to suppress him in his strongest field, which would make him lose face even more.

If it could make him even a little bit unhappy, Thea thought it was worth it.

“Uh–huh,” Thea nodded happily.

Ava frowned again and said, “Thea, but the organizers said we need to bring our own dance partners.”

O Chapter 398 Thea was dumbfounded.

Dance partner?

She did not.

288 iVouchers Thea’s gaze traveled from top to bottom, then from bottom to top, before she finally patted Ava’s shoulder and said, “You will be my dance partner.”

Ava chuckled, “Thea, did dance partners require the opposite sex?”

Thea said, “You were nearly 1.8 meters tall, practiced martial arts all year round, had a flat and strong physique. The key is, I feel comfortable being close to you, and I feel safe when you are by my side.”

Seeing Thea’s serious expression, Ava mustered up the courage of a hero and said, “Since you trust me so much, I will give it my all.”

Who would have thought that on a weekend evening, Ava suddenly disappeared. When she returned, the graceful lady in a dress had transformed into a short–haired, handsome thug in a smart suit.

Drake and Frank were so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground. Drake sighed and said, “Ava, with your appearance like this, your hormones are even more explosive than mine.”

Ava reached out and brushed her bangs, the whole movement was clean and neat, exuding a touch of masculine freedom that only men possess.

Thea gently touched Ava’s short hair, her eyes becoming moist. “Silly girl, you didn’t have to go to such lengths.”

Ava, however, happily said, “Thea, as long as I can help you, I am happy to do anything.”

Thea embraced Ava tightly, holding her close in her arms.

“Good sister.”

Weekend.

After the party started, guests arrived one after another.

Nathan attended the party with his wife, Victoria.

He entered the venue and sat together with Guillermo, Brandon, and Jewel, clinking glasses and having a lively conversation.

“Jewel, how have your recent performances been?” Nathan’s primary concern was still the betting agreement between William and Kyler.

Jewel looked hesitant and said, “Sigh. Let’s not talk about it anymore. All of you big business owners are in a wait–and–see mode, and the smaller partners are too afraid to sign contracts with us recklessly. It has been almost a month since we started this gamble, and my dad and I haven’t signed a single contract yet.”

Nathan said, “Don’t worry, as long as our few families stay put, William won’t make much of an impact relying on some small merchants.”

Nathan fell into deep thought.

“Jewel, I would never let you lose.” In fact, Nathan was conflicted. Emotionally, he didn’t want Thea to lose. But rationally, he knew that Kyler and his father couldn’t afford to lose. That way, he would lose a most loyal ally.

He has always been a rational person.

Jewel smiled with relief, “Nathan, with your words, I feel at ease.”

Guillermo and Brandon expressed their support to Nathan. They also agreed, “Since Nathan has already decided to support Jewel, we will also fully support Jewel.”

Suddenly, there was a burst of noise all around.

“Look, the leader of the Fletcher Group has arrived.”

“You looked really beautiful.”

“The temperament was really good.”

Thea walked up to the girl who praised her, took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of clever eyes, and amidst a chorus of praise, she slowly walked towards Nathan.

Nathan looked at Thea walking towards him against the backlight, amazed at her complete transformation. The timid and humble little girl from before was clearly nowhere to be found in her anymore.

Chapter 398 288 Vouchers The present Thea, intelligent, sharp, fierce, with a sharp tongue that spares no one. Surprisingly, she exuded a charm that was inexplicable.

Nathan found Thea extremely beautiful today.

She walked up to him and smiled sweetly. However, the smile didn’t reach her eyes, even though it was scorching hot in June, it was wrapped in the frost of December.

“Mr. Nathan, do you have a moment to chat?”

Jewel and Victoria both showed signs of panic, “Thea, what do you want to do?” they asked simultaneously.

Thea smiled lightly and said, “Can’t you tell? I was trying to steal someone else’s lover.”

Her gaze swept over Victoria and Jewel’s faces, “I pried yours, and I pried hers too.”

This meant to catch both emotions and fame in one fell swoop.

Jewel forced herself to remain calm and said, “Well, it depends on whether you have the ability.”

Thea’s gaze turned towards Victoria, and Victoria awkwardly said, “I believed Nathan.”

Thea’s silver bell–like laughter echoed in the hall, “Believing in a scumbag who betrayed his wife is no different than believing that pigs can fly.”

Thea suddenly covered her mouth and said, “Oh, I forgot, you are the mistress who took the upper hand. So it’s only natural for you to trust him.”

Chapter 398 1 288 Vouchers Then she gave them a look, “You two must stay locked up. Don’t come out and cause trouble for others.”

Nathan’s face turned dark, “Thea, if you came here to pick a fight, you are not welcome.”

Nathan felt that this woman’s thought process was very unique, as she was so arrogant even when asking for help.

Thea enjoyed arguing for the sake of arguing, and only after she finished speaking did she remember the important matter at hand.

She looked at Nathan and said, “Should we talk here or somewhere else?”

“Suit yourself,” Nathan replied curtly.

Thea said, “Let’s talk here then. After all, it’s not me who will be embarrassed.”
