Dumping My Fiancé For His Uncle

Chapter 50

Thea wore a moon-white silk dress, the elegant cut highlighting her slender figure, making her even more graceful and poised

Her long hair was pinned up, but a few strands were left loose around her face, giving Thea a casually refined look.

Moreover. Thea's soft features were complemented by slightly upturned almond-shaped eyes, which added a touch of sharpness without making her appear unapproachable,

In fact, the more one looked, the harder it was to forget her.

The man's eyes flashed with a hint of awe, but he retorted quickly. "What do you think? Do I look like a top-tier simp

Thea gave him a cold smile and replied. "And what about me? 11 1 look like a top-tier simp? If you can't handle it, should I say your jealousy is out of control?"

Thea stepped closer to him, raising her fair hand and placing it lightly on his shoulder.

Then Thea brushed at his shoulder as if removing a speck of dust, her tone growing icier. "Men should work on their own character. At your age, if you still haven't settled down, it's because your jealousy is holding you back." "Do you remember that? You haven't gotten married or had children yet, have you?" Thea continued.

Her words weren't quiet, and many around them overheard their conversation. People began to cast strange glances at the man, and whispers soon followed.

The man's expression shifted, turning an ugly shade of embarrassment. And anyone who had been planning to gossip about The held their tongues wisely. Thea turned on her heel and walked away, her mood souring.

'Damn! Why do Jake and Madelyn always have a way of appearing wherever I go?" she muttered.

The room had filled up, and the next event was the speech by the outstanding graduates. This reunion included two graduating classes. Back when Thea was a senior, she had spent some time abroad before returning to repeat her final year, so she was a year behind Jake.

In previous reunions, both Jake and Thea would give speeches together, as they had both been the top graduates of their respective years. Although Thea despised sharing any stage with Jake, she thought about her goals and decided to endure it for now.

As the crowd gathered in the yacht's main hall, Thea saw that the rumors were true. Jake had brought Madelyn.

Thea had to admit, being by Jake's side had improved Madelyn's demeanor. Her overall style, from clothing to makeup, had matured

Moreover, the mid and mousy behavior she used to exhibit was almost gone.

However, no matter how someone changes on the surface, their true nature remains the same deep down

This event was full of elites. Some greeted Madelyn out of courtesy to Jake, but she still chose to hide behind him, her large, innocent eyes blinking up at people.

Thea noticed the frustration and exasperation in their gazes, and it put her in a much better mood.

After the host took the stage to warm up the crowd, it was time for the outstanding graduate speeches. Thea stood, just as Jake rose to his feet as wellTêxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Their eyes met across the room, but no sparks flew, Thea's gaze remained indifferent as if she were looking at a stranger Jake's eyes darkened for a moment, a flash of irritation crossing his face.

Let's welcome Mr. Hendrix and Miss Terell to the stage for their speech, the host announced.

But Thea paused, her hand still holding the hem of her dress, really to step forward. And It wasn't just her. Everyone in the room froze for a moment.

Jake turned and extended his hand to Madelyn. She smiled sweetly, her expression one of hashful pride as she placed her hand in Jake's gently

The two of them exchanged a look full of affection, like they were filming a scene from a romantic drama.

As the crowd processed what was happening, they turned to look at Thea with knowing glances. Most were filled with schadenfreude, waiting for her reaction eagerly.
