Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle

Soon, several anonymous tip-off letters landed on the desk at headquarters.

Jake was furious and quickly found Thea. "It was you, wasn't it? Why are you trying to ruin things for me and Madelyn? What do you gain from this chaos?" Thea stared at him, wide-eyed and panicked. Mimicking Madelyn, she blinked innocently, tears welling in her eyes. "Oh dear, how can you think that of me, Jake?" Jake was taken aback by her soft tone.

He grabbed Thea's wrist excitedly.

Thea pulled her hand away defiantly.

She had a stunningly beautiful face, yet she usually came across as cold and arrogant.

Madelyn had only secured her position in Jake's mind with her soft, gentle demeanor.

But in reality, Jake wished Thea would be the one to soften her stance.

Seeing Thea like this, Jake's frustration and resentment melted away.

He cleared his throat, his tone softening. "Stop crying. I didn't mean to upset you. I just need to figure out who's behind this."

Thea remained silent, quietly sobbing, tears hovering in her eyes.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Please, don't cry." Jake helplessly tried to wipe the tears from her eyes.

Thea quickly pulled away.

She found his touch disgusting but voiced her feelings with a tone of injured innocence. "I don't have anything to explain. You just believe Madelyn without question. Why does she insist it was me when there were others present that day? Whenever something goes wrong, she assumes I'm the one targeting her. You all think I'm this malicious person. I just find it amusing that I was even thinking of helping that day... Never mind, forget I said anything." Jake's spirit lifted, a smile creeping onto his face. "Thea, you're admitting you care about me."

it even matter to pursue this now? We've become strangers."

Thea shot him a look filled with sorrow. Jake, does it even

She turned to leave.

At the door, she glanced back at Jake.

In that fleeting moment, a tear fell silently, tugging at his heartstrings.

Jake stood there, frozen, watching her walk away.

He felt an unexpected discomfort rise within him.

Did I really do something so terrible? he wondered.

Just then, Madelyn approached, noticing Jake lost in thought.

She looked puzzled. "What's going on? Is Miss Rowland refusing to admit anything? I knew she wouldn't

Jake spoke with annoyance. "Enough, Madelyn. It's not necessarily her fault. It could be someone else."

Madelyn's alarm bells went

"Why is he defending Thea? she thought.

Flustered, her tone sharpened. "Jake, are you really buying here? If it's not her, then who else? She's the one who wants to see us fail. Everything she said is a lie. Even if she didn't report us, she's still involved. Who else would record our meeting discussions for no reason?"

Madelyn had finally put together the pieces,

Her conclusion was close to the truth.

But unfortunately, Jake's mind was consumed with Thea's sorrowful expression.

Given Thea's earlier misleading words, he increasingly felt that Madelyn was targeting her.

Jake's gaze grew icy, and a strange emotion flickered in his eyes as he looked at Madelyn.

"Madelyn, I just noticed how much you seem to dislike Thea, to the point of wanting her gone from Avon Ventures. But didn't you once say that as long as you could be with me, nothing else mattered?" he asked.
