Chapter 404: Chapter 405

Chapter 404 Guillermo became wary, and he remained silent with a stern face for a long time.

Thea was not impatient either, she just waited quietly.

Guillermo couldn’t help but feel frustrated and said, “That business knowledge should have belonged to our Sanchez family.”

“Why?” Thea retorted fiercely. “Theodore’s belongings, Theodore should have the right to dispose of them. He gave them to me, why should I give them to you, the Sanchez family?”

Guillermo exclaimed excitedly, “He had no power of disposal. He was just a puppet, he didn’t have any legal capacity for civil actions.”

Thea was assertive, “But he was the original author of the business guide. Naturally, the copyright belongs to him.”

Guillermo was so excited that he blurted out, “The business book wasn’t written by him. Does he have the ability? Even he himself was created by my brother.”

Thea’s delicate face gradually stiffened, and the blood in her veins cooled inch by inch. She stared at Guillermo in disbelief and asked, “What did you say?”

“You said – Theodore was created by your younger brother?”

Guillermo was in a panic. He grabbed the teacup and drank 0.00%

In a state of extreme embarrassment.

Thea stared at him fixedly. On the surface, it seemed calm, but inside, a storm was raging.

“What’s your younger brother’s name?” Thea’s voice was clearly unstable.

Guillermo was on high alert, “This is a secret of our Sanchez family. Don’t ask any more questions. Thea, you can leave now.”

Thea said, “Business experience, don’t want it anymore?”

Guillermo slumped down on the chair again, feeling all soft and weak.

“Would you like to share with me?” he asked.

“I don’t want to,” Thea said, “but I can make a trade.”

Guillermo rubbed his face, seeming to have a hard time making up his mind. “Thea, what you want, I cannot give you.”

Thea leaned forward and said, “You don’t know what I want at all. Actually, it’s very simple. If you answer a few questions truthfully and satisfy me, I will not only give you the valuable business secrets but also hand over the project you want.”

Guillermo’s eyes brightened for a moment, but soon his gaze dimmed.

“You left. I didn’t have the answer you were looking for.”

Chapter 404 284 Vouchers Thea was very surprised. She wondered why her attractive qualities couldn’t attract the money–minded Guillermo.

Why is this mysterious brother of his, in his mouth, so secretive?

Thea got up and said slowly, “How come I never knew you had a younger brother?”

Guillermo’s alert heart rose and he said, “Just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Thea’s tone suddenly became intense, “Is he really that unbearable? Do you all have to hide him?”

Guillermo became irritated, “He and I were not familiar, he would lock himself in his room all day. I truly didn’t understand him.

Thea, please don’t put me in a difficult position.”

Thea lowered her pride and pleaded, “I want to see him. Guillermo, can you help me set up a meeting so I can see him?”

“He is not at the Sanchez Manor now, you won’t see him. I couldn’t help. You go.”

“Was he at the Brown Manor?”

“Did not...”

Thea petrified on the spot.

“He wasn’t at the Brown Manor, nor at the Sanchez Manor? Then where is he?”

“You don’t ask anymore. Thea, you go.” Guillermo stood up 30.56%

Guillermo’s figure visibly froze for a moment, but he didn’t linger for long and continued to flee without stopping.

Thea felt complicated and got back into the car.

Ava drove the car, smoothly cruising on the road.

In Thea’s mind, scenes of recent events kept flashing.

Her intuition told her that the truth she wanted was about to emerge.

The Hill Manor.

Victoria and Victoria’s mother returned home in a disheveled state.

Victoria’s former pride and lofty ambition, which were once shattered by William, made her completely humble. She became like a filthy bug hiding in the soil, unwilling to see the light of day.

She locked herself in the room. Regardless of what Victoria’s mother said, good or bad, she still refused to open the door and see anyone.

After Nathan finished work, the maid told Nathan about Victoria’s condition, “Madam was originally going to the Fletcher Group to seek help from her wealthy uncle. But who knew that after coming home, she locked herself in her room and refused to eat or drink. I don’t know what happened exactly.”

11 282 Wouchers He could probably guess that Victoria had run into trouble at the Fletcher Group.

He did not sympathize with Victoria’s plight, he was just curious about how William would deal with the people who bullied his daughter.

After all, he had also bullied Thea before. If William couldn’t forgive Victoria, how could he forgive him?

Nathan went to see Victoria with such a purpose in mind.

He had just reached the door when he saw Victoria’s mother curled up in a wheelchair, trembling and crying.

“Xiner, I beg you, please don’t scare Mom. You mustn’t lose hope. All the mistakes, big or small, are Mom’s fault. Don’t worry, Mom will definitely explain to Mr. William and make sure he doesn’t involve you.”

Victoria’s irritable voice came through, “Why do I have such eccentric parents like you? You’re both stupid and wicked, taking someone else’s huge alimony and abusing someone else’s daughter. Now he’s venting his anger on me, I’m really unlucky to the core.”

“Why am I specifically your daughter?”

Victoria’s mother covered her face and wept, “I’m sorry. It’s Mom’s fault. Mom shouldn’t have abused Thea... It’s my mistake...”

Nathan walked past with a gloomy face.

Victoria heard the sound of Nathan’s arrival and swiftly opened the door.

Nathan, however, stared darkly at Victoria’s mother and said, “You actually embezzled Thea’s child support?”

Nathan laughed self–deprecatingly, “How could I have been so blind back then, to fall for someone like you, who comes from a well–off family.”

“Selfishness, repaying kindness with enmity, hypocrisy, simply rotten to the core.”

Victoria’s mother turned pale.

Victoria’s body went limp, and suddenly she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Xiner,” Victoria’s mother exclaimed in panic, “Nathan, I am the bad person, I beg you, please save Xiner. She is innocent.”

Nathan looked at Victoria, her eyes filled with despair and pain, causing cracks to form in his hardened heart.

He reluctantly picked her up and ran outside.

But just as I was about to go downstairs, Kassidy was blocking the doorway.

She held her stomach, her cheeks flushed, and cried to Nathan, “Daddy, my stomach hurts. I’m dying soon.”

Nathan was so scared that he dropped Victoria to the ground. He ran up to Kassidy and carefully examined her body, asking, 77.80%

Nathan instantly forgot about Victoria, “No, you won’t die. Daddy will take you to the hospital right away.”

Nathan left Victoria and ran away anxiously while holding Kassidy.
