Thea heard his explanation and found it amusing.
“Didn’t I blame you?”
Thorne stared at her blankly and then felt aggrieved, “You’re not even jealous?”
With beautiful eyes filled with moisture, Thea instantly softened. She quickly explained, “I have died once before, I know how much you have sacrificed to be with me. So, Theodore, it’s not that I am not jealous or don’t care about you. I just trust you.”
She clung to his neck with both hands, leaning softly against his chest. This posture was extremely ambiguous.
Thorne suddenly cupped the back of her head and forcefully pushed it forward, causing her lips to collide with his. With their lips and teeth interlocked, he deepened the kiss.
After a long, focused kiss, Thorne satisfiedly licked his enticing lips and said, “Delicious.”
Thea, on the other hand, blushed deeply with embarrassment, while Thorne didn’t let her off the hook. He lightly bit her earlobe and whispered, “You’re blushing so much just from a kiss. I wonder how shy you’ll be on our wedding night with candles and a bridal chamber.”
Thea pushed him away and stood up in a disheveled manner, with her back turned to him. She shyly said, “You are so bad.”

Thorne couldn’t bear teasing her anymore, so he became
serious.
“Why didn’t they deal with the online rumors?”

Thea turned around and looked at him with a cute expression, saying, “Did you see? There was nothing between Nathan and me. It’s all nonsense written online.”
She nervously explained, “Kassidy is missing, and I just wanted to go find him and ask him clearly about the reason for his running away from home. I didn’t expect the paparazzi to intrude and make up stories… How could I possibly reconcile with him?”
She became more and more excited as she spoke, and the more excited she became, the more incoherent her words became.
Thorne felt that she was adorable and didn’t interrupt her, letting her continue talking. He greatly enjoyed her being so nervous about him.
“I am not a fool. Nathan treated me that way before, and I would never go back to him. Besides, compared to you, he is just a fickle emotional manipulator. I am not someone without discernment, how could I choose a pebble from the pearls when I have a precious gem right in front of me?”
“Um, go on,” Thorne encouraged her to continue.
Thea felt a bit weak, “Do you really believe me?”
Thorne laughed and said, “I always knew you wouldn’t get back together with him.”

Thea sighed and said, “Then why did you make me go through all the trouble of explaining for so long?”

“Because I enjoyed listening to you belittle him and praise me.”
“However, no matter how much I listened, it was never enough!”
Thea was dumbfounded.
“Why were you so bad?”
Thorne held her hand and gently pressed it against his face, “Why haven’t you come to see me these past few days? You have no idea how much I’ve missed you. I wanted to go to the Fletcher family to find you, but I couldn’t face your uncle. It’s fault that I’m not capable enough to organize a grand
my
wedding for you all these days.”
Thea furrowed her brow and asked, “What kind of wedding do you want to give me, after all?”
Thorne said, “Thea, I definitely want the best wedding. I booked the most expensive hotel, invited the most friends, bought the most expensive wedding dress and ring, laid out the longest red carpet, and gave the most dowry…”
Thea had a terrible headache. “Do you not want to marry me?” she looked at him with suspicion.
Thorne’s face turned pale. “Did I say something wrong? How did I give you such a wrong impression?”
Thea said, “By the time you… prepare for the wedding, I won’t have already turned gray, right?”

Thorne widened his eyes and exclaimed, “How is that possible? Just two days ago, my money was enough.”

Thea widened her eyes and said, “Where did you get so much money?”
Thorne said, “I sold a patented technology. I used the money to speculate in the US stock market, so I made some money. But now it’s only a few billion, when I earn enough to reach a trillion, I will marry you. Thea, it will happen soon, trust me.”
Thea, however, said, “I didn’t want to wait.”
Thorne, “…
”
Thea said, “I didn’t want the most expensive wedding, in fact, I didn’t even want to have a wedding. I just wanted to have a nice honeymoon with you and get married while traveling.”
Thorne, “…
Thea lowered her head, her voice choked, and said, “I thought about your poor health, but you worked so hard to prepare for the wedding, and it pained me. And you had to compromise with Lady Miller against your will, just to make the Miller family accept me. I am very sad.”
She threw herself into his arms, “Theodore, I actually don’t care about anything, I just want you to be healthy and happy. That’s all I need to be happy.”
Thea finally managed to persuade Thorne, “If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of being a fish? Theodore,
please, fulfill my wish.”
Thorne was stunned.

After a while, he reached out his hand and gently touched her face, saying, “I understood.
Indoors, time passed peacefully.
Outside the door, Lady Miller, who had arrived at an unknown time, overheard the conversation inside and her expression became particularly complicated.
Thorne’s speed of making money was simply stunning to her.
But his favoritism towards Thea made Lady Miller extremely jealous.
Thorne was a member of the Miller family, and his talents should have been utilized by the Miller family. She could not let Thea hinder Thorne’s heart from getting close to the Miller family.
Lady Miller raised her hand and knocked on the door.
It was Thea who opened the door.
Lady Miller pretended to be astonished, and then her face turned purple, showing her anger.
“Miss Fletcher, today is the blind date dinner I organized for Thorne. It seems like you didn’t receive the invitation, Miss Fletcher. Why did you come?”
Thea was feeling a bit embarrassed.
Thorne answered confidently from behind her “Oh, I invited her.”
Lady Miller’s face was extremely unpleasant. She continued to harass, “Miss Fletcher, I spent a fortune organizing this

matchmaking dinner, hoping that Thorne could get to know several eligible young ladies from respectable families. How could you monopolize Thorne all by yourself…”
“It was me who was holding her, it was me who forced her to come with me, it was me who didn’t allow her to leave here,” Thorne said, glaring at Lady Miller with a cold face, his voice gentle but his gaze chilling.
“Lady Miller, if you had any objections to my decision, I could leave with her.”
Thorne resumed calling Lady Miller by her most unfamiliar title.
Lady Miller was almost having a heart attack out of anger. Thorne defended Thea, not allowing her to show any disrespect towards Thea. This left her with a stomach full of frustration and nowhere to vent it.
But she didn’t want to give up on Thorne, the money tree, so she chose to compromise with him.
“Alright, Thorne, since you were so fond of Miss Fletcher, Grandma agreed to your marriage with her.”
Thorne nodded lightly and said, “Whether you agree or not, it doesn’t matter anymore. Because Thea and I have decided to have a destination wedding. The elders in the family do not need to attend our wedding.”
Lady Miller glared fiercely at Thea, convinced that it was her rotten idea, so that Thorne could finally break fe from her shackles.
Lady Miller smiled hypocritically and said, “Whether it’s a
