Can't Win Me Back (Isabella and Nathan) novel Chapter 97

Nathan was choked by Theo, causing his face to turn red.

He clenched his back teeth and interrogated Theo, "What exactly is your relationship with Thea?"

Theo crossed his arms and said, "Guess."

Nathan smirked and said, "At one moment it's the relationship between a boss and an assistant, then it's the relationship between siblings, and then it's the relationship between lovers. This relationship is quite messy, isn't it?"

Theo leaned his handsome face close to Nathan's and blew a warm breath near his ear, looking particularly mischievous. "Prince, actually, Thea and I have a partnership relationship."

Nathan sneered, "You're overestimating her. She's just capable of making a few clothes. Mr. Sanchez's career shouldn't be confined to the realm of women's dresses."

This statement is truly a pun.

Theo smiled knowingly and said, "Prince, you guessed it right. I actually have no interest in fashion brands at all. The only purpose of my collaboration with Thea is to defeat you."

Nathan's handsome face instantly lost its color.

He stared at Theo in shock and said, "Mr. Sanchez, but we had no grievances and no conflicts recently, right?"

Theo laughed lightly. "But you offended Thea. And you offended her quite seriously."

Nathan realized a terrifying fact from her indifferent expression. "I thought you were using Thea as a weapon against me in our business competition. But now it seems like I was wrong. It turns out she wanted to destroy me, and you were the weapon helping her to do so, right?"

Theo clapped his hands and said, "Young master, you have finally become smarter. During the past period, your intelligence was constantly dropping, and I felt it was quite boring to compete with someone as foolish as you."

Nathan gritted his teeth and said, "Theo, you, the proud son of the Browns, with all your wealth and prosperity, how could you willingly obey a woman who came from the slums?"

Theo said, "Prince, I never expected that you, the esteemed prince who should have been admired by all, would become infamous because of a mortal tea fox. Well, it's just a case of 'each to their own' between us."

Nathan scrutinized Theo's eyes with a fixed gaze. Up until now, he still couldn't believe all the efforts Mr. Sanchez had gone through, all for his ordinary and peculiar ex-wife.

After the end of the second episode, Nathan took the opportunity before the recording of the new episode to return to the downtown area of Capital city.

He went to visit his good brother Guillermo and asked, "Guillermo, do you know what special relationship there was between Theo and Thea?"

Guillermo, however, was also completely puzzled and confused, saying, "I watched the variety show that you recorded, and I also found it particularly strange. Theo and Thea behave like real siblings, but I asked my dad, and he was absolutely certain that Thea has no blood relation to us, the Sanchez family."

"That's impossible," Nathan said, clearly flustered. "Thea is introverted and even has social anxiety. She is particularly wary of strangers. But she dotes on Theo so much, even more than she used to love me. I'm certain they had already become acquainted three years ago."

Guillermo waved his hand and said, "This is impossible. Theo grew up with the Browns when he was young, and I heard that he was introverted since childhood. Mr. Brown, fearing any mishap to his precious only grandson, always had many servants by his side wherever he went. How could he have had time to get to know someone like Thea, a commoner?"

Nathan shook his head, clearly not agreeing with Guillermo's statement.

"There is a mystery behind this." Nathan said confidently.

Guillermo said, "I will investigate this matter for you."

Nathan nodded.

After leaving the Sanchez, Nathan paid a visit to the Hill family.

Mrs. Hill lay sick in bed, with half of her hair turned gray. The once glamorous lady seemed to have aged ten years overnight, looking extremely haggard.

Nathan returned home and knelt by Mrs. Hill's bedside, confessing his sins faithfully. "Mother, I have been unfilial. I have disobeyed your wishes and caused you distress."
