Chapter 181

Author: Night Revelations
Theodore leaned against the wall with one hand, every muscle taut. Rosalie was close, and she felt every ounce of his strength.

He didn't seem weak at all; yet strangely enough, she believed his words.

Theodore stared at her flushed cheeks. A thin mist covered her fair face, making her look even lovelier than usual; she was irresistibly attractive.

Rosalie appeared delicate and vulnerable, but he knew she needed care too. Her heart was soft; despite his many faults, she forgave him time and time.

At only twenty-one, she was in the prime of her youth—and yet, she always seemed saddened by him.

Sometimes, he really did feel like a jerk.

After Theodore finished bathing, Rosalie's face was almost as red as a tomato. She dried him off, blew dry his hair, dressed him in pajamas, and helped him into bed.

The whole process felt like she was taking care of a child.

As Theodore lay in bed, silently watching her bustling around for him, she placed a glass of water on his bedside table.

    "So, you're not angry at me?" Theodore asked, seeking reassurance."For now," Rosalie replied.Who knew what might happen later? She couldn't promise the future, but at least for now, she wasn't angry with him.Compared to smooth talkers who would run away at the first sign of danger, she preferred to forgive a man like Theodore. He might annoy her at times, but when it mattered, he stepped up and was willing to risk his life to protect her.Theodore smiled contentedly, and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Thank you for not being angry at me.""It's nothing. Now go to sleep."Theodore nodded faintly; just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID.Rosalie saw the bright display showing the name "Cindy".Her heart immediately sank. Just as she told him she wasn’t angry, a surge of fury rose in her chest. The feeling grew stronger when she saw Theodore answering the call.Rosalie immediately turned away from him, wrapping herself tightly in the blanket. She closed her eyes,

    Theodore wanted to turn on the light to see if she was crying, but in the end, he refrained. Instead, he gently held her hand and rubbed it lightly as he whispered softly in her ear, "I've said it before. I'll keep my distance from her.""Does that mean you won't go there anymore?" Rosalie asked.But how could Theodore completely give up on Cynthia? That would be like signing his own death warrant, wouldn't it?"Rose, are you jealous?" He noticed a hint of sourness in her voice.Feeling her jealousy, his vanity as a man seemed to be satisfied."Jealous of what? I'm definitely not," Rosalie denied.Theodore chuckled softly, and kissed her cheek. "Then why do I smell something sour?"Blushing, Rosalie smiled shyly. "I don't know. I'm tired. I want to sleep."She didn't want to answer any more of his questions. Saying too much would only make her seem too concerned about him. If he caught on, he'd tease her again.Theodore didn't press her further. He smiled knowingly, and wrap

    [Why are you nervous? The child you're carrying is his. Is he going to beat you? If he does, tell me! I'll teach him a lesson for you.][He won't beat me. He's not that kind of person.][Tsk! Look at you, rushing to defend him. But you can't even tell him about carrying his child.][I'm just nervous, you know? I don't know how he'll react.][No matter how he reacts, you have to tell him. If things don't go well, pack your things and come stay with me. What can he do? Anyway, you planned on raising the child alone from the start.][I'll tell him when I find the time.][When will that be? You've wasted enough time already! Tell him tonight. I'll prepare the bed. If he doesn't want the child or says something unpleasant, come stay with me.]Rosalie felt warm inside, knowing she had a support system behind her. Even though she didn't have parents and her aunt had left, having a loving grandmother and a friend like Stephanie made her feel content.[Okay, I got it. I'll tell him toni

    "Rose," he called her name, his voice hoarse, his eyes almost spitting fire.The temperature around the two rose several degrees.Rosalie could feel her palms sweating. She saw Theodore getting closer and closer, until he finally kissed her lips.She closed her eyes, feeling his warmth. At first, she thought they wouldn't kiss again. Little did she know, his kiss wasn’t just a simple one. It escalated gradually, plundering more of her. His large hand gently lifted her nightgown.At that moment, Rosalie suddenly came to her senses. She abruptly opened her eyes, and grabbed his hand to stop his increasingly inappropriate actions. "Wait!"Theodore instantly froze, and he stared at the tense Rosalie beneath him. He withdrew his hand, cupping her face gently. "Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you."She was always so shy—it seemed he needed to teach her."It's not about that," Rosalie stuttered. "I... I have something to tell you. Could you...could you sit up first?"This position r

    "She needs a doctor. You're not a doctor. Can you make her better by going? She's been like this so many times, and you..." Rosalie began."Rose." Theodore interrupted her, frowning. He appeared a bit impatient; or perhaps he thought she was being unreasonable. "If you were rushed to the hospital, I'd go too. It has nothing to do with whether I'm a doctor or not," he said. "You're my husband." Rosalie's emotions were getting heated. Her eyes were watery, and big drops of tears began rolling down uncontrollably. "But what is Cynthia to you? Your wife? Or your lover?"Theodore stared at her in silence for a long time.After a long time, he sighed. "You should sleep first. I'll be back soon.""No, you won't come back!" Rosalie, fueled by some unknown strength, got off the bed and hugged him from behind. "I know once you leave, you won't come back!"It wasn't like Theodore leaving had happened only once or twice. However, tonight, Rosalie's emotions were particularly intense. Sh

    When Theodore heard her words, his face immediately turned cold. "If you're not willing to say it, forget it. Maybe next time."Theodore turned away coldly.Just as he reached the doorway, Rosalie suddenly shouted loudly, "There won't be a next time, Theodore Spencer! If you walk out that door today, there will never be a next time!"At the doorway, his tall figure paused for a moment. Yet, in just two seconds, it left mercilessly.Rosalie suddenly laughed. She fell to the ground heavily, laughing bitterly through her tears as she clutched the carpet tightly.Theodore didn't care about her at all. He only cared about Cynthia!"Rosalie, you idiot!" Rosalie cried as she slapped herself.She should have stopped hoping. He would always choose Cynthia. It would never change!Every time Theodore offered her hope, Rosalie would always foolishly accept it. Then, she couldn't help but comfort herself, finding reasons to forgive him, thinking that he still cared; that he was still a go

    "Theo, tell me, please! Otherwise, I'd rather die on the operating table than endure this agony! I love you so much. You're my life. I can't go on without you! I really don't want to wait anymore. Let me die, and don't give me surgery!"Theodore couldn't bear to see Cynthia in so much pain. "Cindy, please don't say that. You'll definitely get better.""I won't get better, Theo. If this is how I have to live, I'd rather die. I don't want to live like this anymore. Let me leave this world! If I can't be your wife in this life, what's the point of living?"Cynthia struggled desperately on the bed, her breathing growing increasingly unstable. She was almost unable to catch her breath."I'll marry you! As long as you come out safely from the operating room, you'll be Mrs. Spencer!" Theodore declared firmly. "Really?" Cynthia looked at him incredulously, hope shining in her eyes. "Will you really marry me? Do I not have to wait anymore?""I won't make you wait anymore, Cindy. You must

    Over an hour later, Rosalie opened her eyes to find a man standing beside her hospital bed.Seeing Sebastian, she thought she was dreaming. She opened her mouth, her voice hoarse. "Sebastian…? Why are you here?"Sebastian sat by her bed. "Rose, how are you feeling?""I..." Suddenly, Rosalie remembered something and quickly reached for her stomach. "How's my baby?""The baby's fine, don't worry. You were so silly, standing out in the rain like that. Luckily, you were found at the hospital entrance. What if you were somewhere else?"Rosalie pulled a wry face, feeling bitter and upset."What's wrong? What happened?" Sebastian asked, concerned.She realized he hadn't answered her question. "Sebastian, why are you here?" "I called you, and the doctor picked up. He told me about your condition, so I rushed over.""Oh, I see." Whenever she needed someone by her side, it was always Sebastian who accompanied her. Meanwhile, Theodore was with Cynthia. It was absurd.Theodore was

    The receptionist dialed Justin's room using the front desk phone, but no one picked up."I'm sorry, miss. The guest is not answering. He may not be in his room."Rosalie panicked. "Justin, where are you?""Check the surveillance footage," Rosalie immediately told the receptionist. "Please, pull up the footage. I need to see where he went.""I'm sorry, miss. We can't provide access to our hotel's surveillance footage to unauthorized persons. If you can't reach your friend, you should call the police. If law enforcement requests the footage, we will provide it to them."Rosalie hesitated. Her first instinct was indeed to call the police, but she was worried as Justin's identity was complicated.She stumbled out of the hotel entrance, took out her phone, and called him again and again.By the sixth call, Rosalie collapsed to the ground, crying uncontrollably."Justin, where did you go? Didn't you promise to wait for me? How could you lie to me? You swore! You're a liar! You never keep you

    Noah was not usually a friendly person. Those who arrived late or left early would get scolded, let alone someone who skipped work without reason.Rosalie looked at him with confusion."Rosalie, don't be so tense. I want to create a more relaxed work environment. Besides, I've noticed how dedicated and diligent you are. You're a rare talent."Noah's words were not just flattery; there was sincerity in them. Rosalie's financial articles were indeed impressive, with clear and logical analysis. Her insights were professional and precise, even making predictions that later came true."Rose, if you ever have any questions, feel free to ask me."Rosalie nodded. "Alright. Thank you."After Noah returned to his office, Rosalie was still puzzled.A colleague beside her whispered, "Yesterday, there was a helicopter picking you up. Who was it?"Rosalie frowned. "No one."Yesterday, she had snuck onto the balcony, thinking that as long as no one saw her board the helicopter, they wouldn't know who

    Rosalie clenched her fists and lightly pounded his chest, feeling a mix of shyness and frustration. "You're awful! How could you say something like that? Are you trying to annoy me on purpose?"She had come all this way just to confess to him, yet now he was teasing her, suggesting that she wanted to marry him just so he could get citizenship. It was infuriating.Justin had only asked that to tease her. Seeing her sulking face, he affectionately pinched her cheek. Then, he gently cupped the back of her head and pressed his forehead against hers. In a deep and tender voice, he said, "You came all the way here just to find me, and now you're talking about marriage… I don't even know how to react."It was the first time Justin had encountered a situation like this, and also the first time he had loved someone so deeply. He was a little overwhelmed."Justin, do you have any family or friends left in Melrine?"Justin shook his head. "No."To Justin, his family, his friends, and his love—t

    A surge of intense emotion welled up in Justin's chest. He pulled Rosalie into his arms and held her tightly.Rosalie wrapped her trembling hands around his waist."Rose, do you know what you're saying?" Justin's tone was heavy, almost accusatory. He needed to hear her say it with certainty, not just in a moment of impulse."Justin, I love you. Don't go, okay? I don't want you to leave."Some words were difficult to say, but once spoken, they could no longer be contained.She didn't know exactly when she had fallen in love with Justin. Maybe it was from the first time they met when he shielded her in his arms, or when she learned about his tragic past and felt sympathy for him. Or perhaps it was the accumulation of moments over time—his gentleness, his kindness, the way he cared for and protected her. In this seemingly cold and ruthless man, she saw goodness, and she couldn't help but fall for him.Now, she was sure. She wanted to be with him. The thought of never seeing him again dro

    The next day, Rosalie was distracted at work, staring at the numbers on the computer screen until they blurred before her eyes.The entire morning passed in a daze.Last night, she had sent Justin a message asking for the exact time of his flight today. He told her it was departing from Vlodon Airport at 2.30 PM.It was already 1.00 PM now. A sudden wave of anxiety surged within Rosalie.She had initially decided not to see him off as she couldn't bear the pain of parting. But now, an overwhelming emotion rose within her.She couldn't let him leave.Rosalie immediately shut down her computer and hurriedly left her desk.She drove straight to the airport, calling Justin multiple times on the way, but he never picked up.The airport was vast and crowded. Rosalie had no idea where Justin was. She could only search for him based on his flight time, but no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't spot him in the sea of people.She kept calling him and sending him messages.[Justin, please

    Rosalie's nose tingled, and tears fell down her cheeks uncontrollably."Justin, I don't know what to do. I'm so scared. I don't know what the future holds."Hearing these words, Justin felt as if a knife had pierced his heart. It hurt."You're right. I'm scared too. I don't know what the future will be like either, so let's just leave it at this. Stay with Theodore—your bond spans over a decade. You once loved him so much. You have a child together, while I'm just an outsider. How could I ever compare?""Justin, don't say that."If one met the right person, even a minute was enough to fall in love with them. But if it was the wrong person, even decades together wouldn't stop both people from growing weary of each other.Justin sighed. "Then what should I say? After all those years with him, does he really have no place in your heart?"Rosalie lowered her head. "I…""Rose, don't deny it. He'll always have a place in your heart."It was easier to see things clearly as an outsider. That w

    Dinner was pleasant and harmonious.After the meal, the three of them sat in the living room and chatted. The atmosphere was especially warm and relaxed.Most of the conversation between Rosalie and Theodore revolved around the book she was about to write.Rosalie asked Theodore many questions, and he answered each one carefully, offering his advice. In this field, he was indeed more knowledgeable than Rosalie as he had years of experience. His insights were sharp, whether viewed from a macro or micro perspective.As their discussion grew more complex, it reached a level where others could no longer understand.Justin sat silently on the couch, watching them. Even though he didn't understand their conversation, he wasn't annoyed. His gaze remained fixed on Rosalie.It was as if he couldn't find a place in their discussion, nor did he want to interrupt. So, he simply watched them quietly.Unknowingly, time slipped away, and it was already 9.30 PM. Justin glanced at the clock.His gaze l

    "It's great to hear you say that! Once I've got a draft, you'll be the first to read it. If there are any mistakes or areas that need improvement, you have to point them out," Rosalie said.Theodore nodded and replied gently, "I can't wait to read it."Sitting quietly to the side, Justin watched their interaction. For a moment, he felt that the two of them were truly a perfect match. After everything they had been through, they could still share a meal and discuss these matters. They shared the same interests and values.And what about himself? Did he and Rosalie have anything in common? He knew nothing about finance. He was just a cold-blooded assassin. Only when he was with Rosalie did he feel like an ordinary person, but in reality, his true identity was one he could never reveal to anyone.Theodore was different. He was born into a prestigious family, had a high status in society, and had remarkable knowledge.Rosalie should be with Theodore. Only he could give her the life she de

    Theodore asked, "Then how do we know whether this so-called financial critic is telling the truth or not? After all, not everything is just a rumor.""Exactly! That's a great question," Rosalie replied with a smile. "This brings us to credibility and information verification. I want to clearly address this in my book and discuss how to determine the credibility of financial information, much like verifying sources on the internet. I can share methods for cross-checking company reports, financial data, and news sources."If a company is indeed facing an issue, we need to analyze the specifics—what kind of issue it is, whether it can be resolved, or if it is just a normal part of a business cycle. Sometimes, we can't just focus on a single point; we have to take a macro perspective.
