Jewel's expressions were varied and captivating, as if her territory had been invaded by other wild beasts. She
gave a look of rejection. “Thea, I've told you before, he is my fiancé. Why do you always stare at someone else’s
fiancé? Have you no shame?”
Thea, who had a thin skin, felt extremely ashamed and embarrassed after being scolded by Jewel.
She actually had no doubt about Jewel and Thorne’s relationship, after all, they were indeed married in their past
lives.
“I knew he was your fiancé, but he was also my brother-"
“Little brother? Don’t try to establish a connection. If you are really that important to him, why have | never
heard him mention you?”
Thea, “..."”
It seems like Jewel made a lot of sense. She even seemed a bit hurt. However, this pessimistic mood quickly
dissipates when she thinks about the amount of money Thorne earned for her, which is still lying in the
Maplecrest Enterprises account. She then feels that she is not as insignificant in Theodore’s eyes as
Jewel said.
She decided to have an open and honest talk with Jewel.
“Jewel, | saw him. He needed my help,” Thea pleaded, looking at Jewel.

Even though she was unwilling, Thea had applied numerous times to visit Thorne, who had becso aloof
since entering the high walls. However, he decisively rejected every single one of her requests.
But he was willing to see Thea?
In such a comparison, Jewel felt a vague unease in his heart. Who was more important to Thea in the end?
“What did he say to you?” Jewel's voice trembled a little.
“It’s actually nothing. He hardly said a word the whole time,” Thea said, feeling quite frustrated.
Jewel smiled proudly and said, “I thought he really saw something special in you. Turns out, you were just being
delusional.”
Thea, “..."”
Jewel looked down on her and said, “Tell me, what do you wantto do? As long as it's good for my family,
Theo, I'm willing to help you.”

Thea'’s face turned red with embarrassment as she said, “Do you know why his legs were disabled?”
“That's his weakness, how can | poke at his weakness and hurt his self-esteem. | never even mind his legs.
Naturally, | won't ask him,” Jewel said.
Thea was touched by Jewel's love; she was a very pure girl.
She was actually somewhat happy for Thorne, having such a

wife, what more could a husband ask for.
“When | met him, he was injured. He could only limp. We didn’t have money to see a doctor at that time, but
luckily we cacross a wandering doctor. | begged him to examine Theodore’s injury, and although he didn’t
prescribe anything, he checked it and said that his leg would recover after a period of rest.”
Thea’s tone becsad and heavy, “But when | saw him this time, his leg was so severely injured.”
Jewel looked at her in shock, feeling jealous that Thea and Thorne had such a long history together.
Although she was his fiancée, he treated her very coldly. He often treated her as if she were invisible.
Jewel was not content with being Thorne’s fiancée, as she realized that her intimate relationship with him was
not as strong as Thea’s. So she pretended to boast, “His painful past truly breaks my heart. He didn’t wantto
worry about him, so he never mentioned the details of his past to me. He only gavea general idea, so |
actually didn’t know that you and him were acquainted?”
Thea felt like her blood vessels were sprinkled with salt, making them taste salty, when she chatted with Jewel.
“Hasn't he ever mentionedduring all the tyou've been together?”
“Why did he mention you? You're not someone important in his life. Just a insignificant passerby,” Jewel sneered.
How did she know to stab Thea in the heart?

Thea tried her best to calm her wounded heart, “It doesn’t matter. Whether he forgets aboutor remembers
me, it’s not important. What matters is that | have decided to help him. Until he no longer needs my help. At that
time, | will withdraw from your world. It won’t make you feel sad or upset.”
Jewel was stunned.
Thea’s frankness and honesty made her impeccable in every
way.
“You said it and you did it.”
Jewel stood up and walked to the door, suddenly saying, “By the way, the Sanchez family has been up to
something lately. They won't let him out easily.”
She finished saying this and then walked away in big strides.
But Thea was shocked by this statement.
The Sanchez family was Theodore’s foundation, how could they have struck Theodore like this?
Thinking about the trillion-dollar assets lying in Maplecrest Enterprises, as well as Thorne shorting billions of
funds from the Sanchez family and the Brown family, Thea had a faint feeling in her heart: Could Theodore have
willingly walked into this prison disaster?
With what kind of despair did he break off his own future?
Thea clenched her fist, her body being dominated by an invisible anger.
Her phone rang at that moment.

Sir Harris sent a message, “The retrial is imminent, No. 13 entrusts you to ask Jacob on his behalf.”
In just a few words, Thea understood as much as she possibly could.
She almost immediately jumped up from her seat, then grabbed her phone and coat and hurriedly walked out.
“Ava, prepare the car. | was going out for a while.”
“Yes,” she instructed Ava without forgetting.
Jacob Law Firm.
Thea stood beneath a circular building, gazing up at the red cloth hanging from the top of the tall building that
read “Jacob Law Firm,” her brow furrowed deeply.
Just because there was a black swallow carved on the stone pillar next to the entrance of this circular building.
“Is this building the Sanchez family’s?” Thea turned to ask
Ava.

Ava was clearly stunned by the black swallow. She nodded foolishly and said, “Thea, Jacob rented the Sanchez
Group's property as an office building. It seems that Jacob has a close relationship with the Sanchez family. If you
ask Jacob to deal with the Sanchez family, will he accept your request?”
Thea gritted her teeth and said, “Man can control his own destiny.”
In her heart, she secretly warned herself, “For Theodore’s sake, no matter what, | must win over Jacob.”

Thea and Ava took the elevator to the seventh floor where Jacob Law Firm was located. As they stepped out of
the elevator doors, they unfortunately ran into Mrs. Sanchez and Guillermo.
Guillermo greeted Thea with an awkward smile and said, “Thea, why are you here?”
Mrs. Sanchez continued to sarcastically mock Thea, saying, “This building is mostly rented by lawyers for their
offices. Ms. Thea, did you get yourself into slegal trouble coming here?”
Thea refused to be weak, “Isn't the lady also here? Could it be that she is also entangled in a lawsuit?”
Mrs. Sanchez’s face turned dark, and a cold snort escaped
from her nose.
Thea swaggered past her. Mrs. Sanchez did not leave promptly either, but instead stared at Thea’s departure.
Seeing Thea stop at the entrance of Jacob Law Firm, her expression changed.
Immediately, she took a deep breath and provocatively taunted Thea, “Ms. Thea, you're a step too late. Jacob
has already agreed to exclusively serve the Sanchez Group this year. No more external orders.”
Thea gritted her teeth in frustration, berating herself for not seizing the opportunity. However, she refused to
show it on her face and asked, “Has Mrs. Sanchez signed the contract?”
Mrs. Sanchez said, “With my close friendship with Mrs. Gibson in the past, it only takes a few words. Why bother
with the

hassle of signing a contract?”
Thea said, “The most unreliable thing in this world is the plastic friendship between best friends.”
After Thea finished speaking, she went straight to knock on the door.
