Lady Miller was very firm in her attitude and did not allow Thorne to refuse. Thorne may have remembered his
recent frequent heart attacks and did not refuse either.
Just at that moment, a maid rushed in anxiously.
“Lady Miller, something happened ahead.”
Lady Miller put down the teacup in her hand and asked, “What happened?”
“The second young master has returned. However, he cback with a beautiful girl. After entering the Miller
family, the beautiful girl acted recklessly, even the second young master couldn't stop her. They had a fierce
argument. The second young master even told her to get out of the Miller Manor.”
“Oh? Are there still such unreasonable and arrogant people? Breaking into someone's house in broad daylight,
and being so brazen about it?” Lady Miller's face turned solemn.
Then he picked up his cane and stood up, saying, “Come, followto the front yard and have a look.”
So, a group of people walked towards the front yard. As they passed through the long corridor, Lady Miller heard
the voice of her usually gentle and polite grandson, Arthur.
“Jade, how can a girl like you have such thick skin? | already said that the Miller family won't welcyou, so
why did you still shamelessly barge in? This is the inner courtyard, where the owners of the Miller family live. It's
not appropriate for

you to intrude. Do you believe that | will call the police and have you arrested?”
Lady Miller exclaimed, “Jade? But isn't she the female CEO of the Fletcher Group?”
Thorne was astonished, but after a brief moment of being stunned, a tender smile appeared on his handsome
face.
“It was her,” he replied to Lady Miller.
Lady Miller had a stern face. “She was also a person of importance. How could she have been so unreasonable?
How could she have forcefully entered someone else’s mansion?”
Thorne quickly stepped in to smooth things over for Thea, saying, “Grandmother, it waswho invited her.”
Lady Miller was petrified like a statue.
Just because of Thorne’s “grandmother,” her mind quickly understood.
“You actually, finally, were willing to call‘grandmother’ for her sake. It shows that she holds a special place in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyour heart,” Lady Miller instructed her attendants, “Go and tell the second young master not to trouble Miss
Fletcher. Just say that Miss Fletcher is a guest of his elder brother.”
Before long, the maid brought Thea and Arthur in front of Lady Miller.
Arthur had a face full of cynical resentment. “Grandma, she didn’t have an invitation, yet she forcefully barged
into my house... It's simply unreasonable.”
Lady Miller grew impatient and said, “Alright, alright, she was

invited by your brother.”

Arthur glared at Thorne again, his eyes filled with anger. “Did you really invite her?”
Thorne nodded coldly, “Hmm.”
Thea smiled from ear to ear. Only she knew that Thorne was deliberately protecting her.
However, when her gaze fell upon Thorne’s emaciated face, she couldn't smile.
Thorne becthin.
Pale face.
The illness was evident.
She wished she could slap herself, how long has he been sick, she had never noticed before.
Arthur was indignant, “Thorne, do you really consider the Miller family as your own? How could you invite your
friends to our house without our permission?”
Thea'’s face turned pale when she heard the words. “If this is not his home, why did Robert go through all the
trouble to bring him back? If it is his home, then he has the right to invite friends over just like you all, right?”
After finishing his speech, he added in a resentful tone, “If the Miller family doesn’t welchim, then there’s no
need to hypocritically bring him back. He is a distinguished guest wherever he goes. Why should he endure cold
stares here?”
Thorne couldn't help but chuckle.

Thea was assertively maintaining her appearance, and she was indeed adorable.
Lady Miller had a headache and said, “Stop making noise. Arthur, Jade is a guest, how can you be so rude to
Jade?”
In order to punish Arthur for disrespecting Thorne, Thea decided to further tarnish his reputation, “Lady Miller,
don’t blhim. He just lost the project toand deliberately tried to make things difficult for me.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Lady Miller and Arthur's faces turned pale.
Arthur's talent and ability have always made him stand out among the younger generation. But his loss to Thea
means that the Miller family must find someone else with talent in order to defeat the Fletcher family.
Thea warned Arthur with a prank, “Those who underestimate Theodore will have a terrible fate.”
Arthur stared at her with red eyes, as if he wanted to devour
her.
Lady Miller pretended to be calm, even though she was clearly anxious.
“Arthur, Miss Fletcher is a lady, giving her the project was a gentlemanly gesture. Well done on handling this
matter,” Lady Miller praised Arthur, with a cold smile.
Thorne patted the empty seat next to him and said, “Thea, cand sit here.”
Thea walked over and sat down next to Thorne.

Lady Miller looked at the two people opposite her. Thorne’s gaze towards Thea was truly indulgent. Lady Miller
couldn’t help but have a thought, and the coldness in her eyes instantly dissipated a lot.
She noticed that Thorne had feelings for Thea.
If their grandson liked an exceptionally intelligent girl, she would be happy.
So he praised Thea endlessly, saying, “Last t| only had a brief encounter with Miss Fletcher. Her beauty and
intelligence left a deep impression on me. Later on, | deliberately inquired about Miss Fletcher's news, only to
find out that you are actually the daughter of Robert's old friend.”
After a pause, the original pleasantries becslightly more probing, “I wonder if Miss Fletcher has someone
she fancies?”
Thea nodded, “It was already done.”
Lady Miller felt a little disappointed. “I wonder which young gentleman is so fortunate?”
Thea glanced at Thorne and suddenly, her hand under the table unexpectedly grabbed Thorne’s.

Thorne was taken aback. Looking at Thea, he saw an unprecedented determination in her stubborn eyes. He
probably guessed what Thea was about to do, and then he secretly exerted great force with his big hand, trying
to break free from Thea’s control.
But Thea wouldn't let go. She stared at him intently, her eyes filled with warning, “Don’t move.”
Chapter 538
Her expression was truly vivid and wonderful.
Thorne suddenly laughed and gave up resisting.
Anyway, she did whatever she wanted, knowing that he wouldn't be able to spoil her for much longer.

Thea lifted Thorne’s hand and then smiled coyly at Lady Miller, saying, “Lady Miller, I like him. But he hasn't
agreed to be my boyfriend yet, so starting from today, | have decided to pursue him.”
Lady Miller was overjoyed, but her joy didn’t last long as it was abruptly shattered by the sudden arrival of
Victoria.
“You used to like Nathan before, you were obsessed with him. Not only did you forcefully break up my
relationship with him, but you also willingly got into bed with him to have his child. And now you've moved on so
quickly, falling in love with someone else? Your emotions really cand go so fast, don’t they?”
Lady Miller's face immediately becstiff, and she forced a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.
Thea slowly released Thorne’s hand.
But this time, it was Thorne who took the initiative to hold her
hand.
Lady Miller observed Thorne’s actions and felt anxious. She was afraid that her grandson might be infatuated
with love.
Her attitude towards Thea also quietly changed, saying, “Miss Fletcher likes Thorne. This is a good thing.
However, Thorne has a cold personality, and I'm afraid many girls may not
