In the past, Nicky was smart and proud. Her talents were outstanding, and she was highly valued. She was insatiable, however, which led her to her current situation. I could not bear seeing her pretty face filled with sadness.
Her sharp eyes shot toward me, and her mottled tears were filled with reluctance. "I’m the only one worthy to stand by Theo's side. Go away!"
Nicky rushed toward me, which was something I did not expect. If Theo had not shielded me, I think Nicky would be strangling me by the neck at this moment.
He grabbed Nicky's slender wrist. The time he spent with her did not make him feel pity for Nicky. Indifference filled his eyes after everything was revealed.
"Nicky, I’ve already shown you great kindness by not reporting you to the police."
This was true. Considering what Nicky and Drover had done, they could be handed over to the police, but we did not want to ruin their future.
They were two individuals with outstanding abilities. If they could change their mindsets, they could still make a breakthrough in the business world.
Especially Drover.
I looked at him. His eyes were bleak, and when they turned to me, the sadness in them sent an abrupt shiver through me.
It was so distressing.
He had unbridled passion, but it was for the woman he loved.
"Drover, Theo isn’t the person you hate. Let it go. I think Heather would hope for the same." I walked up to him. I really hoped that he would think about it.
I looked at Marius, who had been watching everything unfold at the door. I motioned him to come in to help persuade Drover. Seemingly understanding what I meant, he walked in slowly.
