Chapter 466: Chapter 468

Chapter 467 William’s eyelids drooped, wearing a fake smile on his face. “Jade, after spending a few years in the mall, you have also learned the art of socializing like a water bearer. Well done, well done. It not only pleases your father but also treats guests warmly. The middle way is more suitable for this society.”

Thea was dumbfounded.

Was it her illusion?

Why did she feel that her father was acting a bit unusual today?

Faced with her father’s reproach, Thea made a decisive decision and directly told her father, “Dad, I met Theodore on WeChat, and we have been facing storms together during the most difficult times. Although we are not siblings, our relationship is closer than that of siblings. So please don’t treat him as a guest in the future. If possible, I hope Dad can treat him as a younger family member and be affectionate towards him.”

William, who always catered to his daughter’s requests, naturally couldn’t let her lose face. He quickly nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Jade. Since he is a friend who has gone through hardships with you, he is also my benefactor. I won’t treat him unfairly.”

Then, William treated Thorne with a friendly attitude throughout the whole time, not only serving him food but also 17:298 Mouchers Chapter 44,7 engaging in lively conversations with him.

“What is your surname, sir?”

“Thorne,” Thorne waived his last name.

“Where did you live?”

“At the south gate.”

William was a little surprised. “The south gate? Oh, that’s the wealthy district.”

Thorne did not respond.

William asked again, “What did you study?”

“Dealing with computers.”

“Oh, IT. It’s a good profession, but it tends to make you lose hair easily.”

Thorne’s lips twitched.

He wouldn’t have lived until that time.

“Who was at home?” William chattered incessantly.

“Father, mother, and older brother. Oh, and also grandfather,” Thorne said nonchalantly.

This was his first time borrowing the power of his wicked stepmother and that foolish elder brother. Just thinking about their existence, they only served this purpose.

“What did your father do?”

“Did business.”

1188 Woochers Chapter 467 “How much could the annual turnover be?”

“He always engaged in unprofitable business deals,” Thorne did not hide Dayton’s incompetence.

William swallowed his saliva. He was somewhat astonished: if a boy truly liked this girl, he would surely strive to present himself in the best possible light in front of her future father- in–law. However, the boy in front of him seemed to not boast about his own advantages at all, but instead completely exposed his flaws.

William’s keen intuition told him that the boy did not want to marry Jade.

Dating without the intention of marriage is nothing but hooliganism.

William was very angry with Thorne.

Just for the sake of her daughter’s face, she maintained a harmonious appearance on the surface.

After finishing lunch, Thea received a phone call from a client.

Thea had to go out as a customer wanted to discuss a business deal with her.

Never before had William urged his daughter to leave so urgently, flipping back and forth two or three times like today.

“Jade, it’s getting late. You should leave earlier, don’t make the clients wait too long.”

Thea, however, couldn’t help but worry about Thorne. She walked up to him and tidied his hair. Then, she stood in front of him, lost in thought.

C 1298 Vouchers Chacher £67 Then she turned and went upstairs, and brought down a blanket. She gently placed it on Thorne’s legs.

“Is your leg still hurting?” She remembered that every time the weather changed in the past, Thorne’s leg would hurt so much that he couldn’t sleep.

Thorne hesitated for a moment and said, “It’s surprising that you still remember something from so long ago. It stopped hurting a long time ago.“. He lied.

Thea smiled and said, “After all, there are old wounds, so it’s important to stay warm. To avoid leaving any sequelae when we get older.”

Thorne did not refuse her kindness.

After Thea handled Thorne’s problem properly, she bid him a reluctant farewell, saying, “Theodore, Thea is going out for a while.

She will be back soon. If you need anything, find Ava, she will help you.”

Thorne nodded lightly, “Okay.”

From the moment he arrived at this house, his mood was always subdued.

It seemed as if everything done for him by others was taken for granted, and yet it seemed as if everything done for him by others was something he simply didn’t care about. He appeared to be an emotionless oddity.

After Thea left, William sat gloomily on the living room sofa, staring at him intently.

He no longer had to hide his resentment towards Thorne at this moment. “Thorne, my daughter has depression, so I cater to her every need in order to not trigger her. But that doesn’t mean I truly welcome your arrival.”

After a pause, he continued, “You and my daughter are both unmarried. I don’t believe in pure friendship between men and women. Tell me honestly, do you really not have any romantic feelings towards my daughter?”

Faced with William’s questioning, Thorne couldn’t come up with an answer.

Because he had more than just a hint of romantic feelings towards Thea.

He was full of her in his heart and eyes.

If it weren’t for physical reasons, he wouldn’t be willing to compromise himself.

William saw him silent and sneered, “I knew you had impure intentions. But let me warn you, my Jade is not in good health, and her future husband must be someone who treats her well. And you...

His gaze fell on his legs, “It’s not that I look down on you, you know what your situation is. If you still need someone to take care of you, how could you possibly take care of my daughter?”

William’s voice softened, “So, just consider this as an old father pleading with you, pleading with you to voluntarily leave my daughter.”

After saying these harsh words, William anxiously looked at Thorne.

Chapter 457 198 Vouchers He was actually quite worried that Thorne would not be willing to leave Jade, and he was even more worried that Thorne would report Jade to him. If Jade, this love–struck girl, believed that her father was hindering her love and had a falling out with him, what would he do?

Little did he know, Thorne’s next words almost made him. explode with anger.

“If you were capable of making your daughter leave me willingly, I would be extremely grateful to you.”

William threw the cup in front of him on the ground and roared, “What do you mean? Are you suggesting that my daughter should chase after you?”

“Well, even if my daughter liked you and pursued you, you should be grateful to her. After all, my daughter is such an outstanding girl, and it’s your good fortune that she chose you.”

“Why did you despise her? How could you despise her?”

“Why don’t you take a look at yourself in the mirror? Besides having a handsome face, what else do you have to show off?”

William would never allow anyone to underestimate his daughter.

Thorne lifted the water cup and elegantly took a sip before calmly responding to his words, “It wasn’t me who was being submissive. She was the one who imprisoned me.”

His Thea was sensitive, so proud, how could she possibly do something like chasing after a man?

Chapter 447 It was her gentleness and kindness that completely imprisoned his heart.

11 288 Vouchers But his concise way of expressing himself obviously misled William. He spewed out all the tea he had just drunk, incredulously saying, “You said my daughter imprisoned you?”

Thorne looked at his legs and said, “You saw it too, I was unable to move. If it wasn’t for her taking me back, how could I possibly be here?”
