Chapter 569
When Thea drove back to the Capital, it was already early morning of the next day.
Thinking that the situation was urgent, Thea originally wanted to drive directly to the Miller Manor. However,
Thorne was unwilling, feeling sorry for Thea driving all night, and strongly insisted that she first go back to the
Fletcher family to rest.
Thea couldn't resist him and truly missed Kyler, so she went back to the Fletcher family first.
However, with something on her mind, Thea tossed and turned that night, unable to fall asleep.
Thorne pulled her into his arms and commanded dominantly, “Close your eyes, | will tell you a story.”
Then he went from Snow White to Pea Princess, from Cinderella to Thumbelina. Thea becmore and more
uneasy as she listened, “Why are all these stories about princes and Cinderellas who go through hardships and
end up happily together?”
Thorne said, “Because | liked it.”

Finally, she felt a little guilty, “Why don’t you go to sleep first? | really can't fall asleep.”
“Then | accompanied you.”

When William learned that Thea and Thorne had returned for the Miller family, his face turned very serious, and
he gave them a warning, “The situation with the Miller family is quite complicated. Thorne, you need to be
mentally prepared.”
After a pause, he continued, “Theodore, now that you have a family, you mustn't act impulsively. You have to
consider Jade.”
The more he spoke in such a secretive manner, the more Thea and Thorne becuneasy.
Thea asked, “Dad, what happened to the Miller family?”
Robert stared into Thorne’s eyes and cautiously said, “The scandal of the Miller family may not have been able
to be concealed. The prosperity of the Miller family may also not have been able to be preserved.”
Thorne said, “Dad, go ahead and speak out confidently. | can handle it.”
William paused and said, “Nowadays, people outside are saying that the Miller family had improper behavior,

The Miller Manor, which used to be bustling and lively in the past, was full of life.
The security guard at the entrance was imposing, which complemented the heavy gate.
The front yard was always bustling with servants wearing tailored clothes, showcasing the busyness of the Miller
family.
But today, there were no security guards at the entrance, the gate was wide open with no one inside. A heavy
atmosphere of lifelessness permeated everywhere.
Thea tightly held Thorne’s hand with worry and said, “Theodore, don’t worry, | will always be by your side.”

Thorne stared at Thea and suddenly smiled brightly, “Thea, remember, in this world, my emotions are only
influenced by you.”

Thea pushed Thorne’s wheelchair inside and walked for a while. A figure rushed out in a panic and said, “Young
Master? You're back?”
The Miller family’s butler, the personal servant by Lady Miller's side, caught sight of Thorne and a glimmer of joy
filled his eyes.
“It’s really timely for you to cback now. The Miller family is completely in chaos. Hearts are divided, and this
family is falling apart.”
Thorne asked, “What happened?”
The butler sighed and lamented, “You don’t know, there was

an elderly couple living in the backyard garden. The old woman, for sreason, suddenly went mad and
knocked out the security guard, then ran out herself. She set fire to the Main Building where the owners of the
estate lived, causing the Miller family to suffer heavy losses.”
Thorne recalled that Arthur had mentioned that there had been a murder at the Miller Manor, so he curiously
asked, “Did anyone get hurt?”
The butler’s face darkened. “The mistress and the young lady of the fourth room were burned to death.”
Thea was shocked and her face turned pale.
“That was unfortunate.”
Thorne said, “The old woman who set the fire, did she have a psychiatric diagnosis? Did the police release her
without charge?”
“Master, how did you know?”
“I guessed.”
The butler may still be immersed in the sorrow brought by this sudden change, his speech was incoherent and
without any logical order. Clearly, he would say whatever cto his mind.
“Master, Lady Miller was shocked and fainted on the spot. She is currently lying in the Miller family’s private
hospital. Your father can only handle the company’s affairs alone and is busy from early morning till late at
night.”
“What about the others?”

“Steven and Oliver's families temporarily moved out, and Mr. Joshua kept demanding compensation every day!"”
Thorne said, “Can the reason for the arsonist suddenly setting fire be found?”
The butler said, “Alas, she was a mentally ill person, insisting on finding her own daughter. However, the Miller
Manor didn’t have the person she was looking for.”
Thorne said, “Alright, | got it. Taketo the scene of the fire.”
The butler led Thorne and Thea to the Main Building.
The once extravagant Main Building, now only remains an empty shell. The magnificent building has been
blackened by thick smoke, with a lingering smell of smoke.
Thorne looked at Thea and advised, “Thea, go somewhere else to rest. The air here is not good.”
Thea shook her head and said, “I wanted to be with you.”
“Thea, even if you didn’t think about yourself, you should have thought about our children.”
Thea reluctantly said, “Well then. Cout quickly. Don’t makeworry.”
“Okay.”
Thea pleaded with the butler again, “Please take good care of him.”
The butler nodded and took the wheelchair. “Miss Fletcher,

The butler pushed Thorne into the Main Building. Thea, on the other hand, walked towards the bushes on the
other side.
In the Main Building, Thorne and the butler chatted casually, “Where did the old lady's daughter go?”
The butler hesitated for a moment and said, “I only know that Mr. Joshua is not Lady Miller's biological son, but |
haven't heard of the Miller family having any other daughters.”
Thorne said, “Don’t play dumb with me. You have been with Lady Miller for so many years, and you are aware of
her affairs. You may want to cover up for her, but harboring a cris also illegal. You should not only think
about yourself but also consider the well-being of your entire family.”
The butler’s face turned pale in an instant.
“The young master is really joking. How can | have a house full of grandchildren? | have dedicated my whole life
to Lady Miller, fiving alone without any tto manage my own household.”
“How terrifying is Lady Miller? Did she scare you like this? Are you so cautious even after getting married, hiding
it from her?” Thorne suddenly turned his wheelchair around, facing the butler directly. He stared at the butler
and said, word by word, “So, are you afraid that she will use your family to blackmail you?”
The old butler looked at Thorne with a look of awe, “They all say you are very terrifying, and today | finally
understand how terrifying you are. How did you know that | have a biological son?”

The old butler even trembled a little, “Young master, please forgive them. They are all honest and law-abiding
citizens.”
Thorne said, “They were innocent. But how many innocent people did you and Lady Miller hurt with your
schemes?”
