Chapter 199

Author: Night Revelations
Rosalie found it hard to believe that such an outstanding man like Sebastian was still single. She was sure that truckloads of women adored him. She wondered what kind of woman he would fancy.

What woman would be worthy of his gentle kindness?

Rosalie’s nose turned red, and she rubbed it before squeezing out a smile. “I know what you mean. I’ll lock it up and put it in a corner.”

Since her love didn’t come to fruition, she didn’t want to be in pain over him for the rest of her life. Just as Sebastian said, she would lock it up and bury her affections in the deepest, darkest corner of her heart. She would let time bury those memories, and not let them affect her life.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Yvonne’s voice sounded from the other side. “Seb, do you want lunch?”

Sebastian glanced at the clock, and noticed that it was already noon.

“Rose, do you still feel unwell? Can you make it for lunch?”

Rosalie smiled. “I’m fine now.”

“All right, then. Shall I bring lunch up to

    “You…” Sebastian was about to say something more, when Rosalie cut in, “We’re just having a chat. It’s all good.”“Hear that? Our guest has spoken. Stop talking so fiercely to me,” Yvonne said, displeased.Sebastian looked helplessly at his sister, feeling at his wits’ end when dealing with her.Rosalie looked enviously at the siblings before her. If only she had a brother… A pity she didn’t.She mentioned taking Theodore as her brother, but Theodore wasn’t actually her brother. No, he was her lover and husband. That was worlds apart from a brother.How could she take the man she loved the most as her brother? She couldn’t do it.After lunch, Rosalie tried to persuade Sebastian, who looked completely exhausted, “Sebastian, go back to your room and sleep. You didn’t sleep the entire night. You’re probably very tired.”“I’m fine.”He was the one who brought Rosalie here. If he went back to his room and sleep, she would be left all alone.Yvonne ran over, and said, “Just look a

    Yvonne brought Rosalie outside for some fresh air. After some walking, they sat on a bench.“Rose, I heard Sebastian say that you’re married?”Rosalie nodded. “Yes, I am.” “You’re pregnant, too.”“Yes, that too.”Out of curiosity, Yvonne asked, “Who’s your husband?”The mention of her husband gave Rosalie a dull pain in her chest. “What’s the matter? Do you feel unwell?” Yvonne asked. Yvonne noticed how frail Rosalie looked, and hoped she wouldn’t faint before her. She would be in trouble when her brother woke up and found out what happened.“I… I’m a little tired. I want to go back to my room and rest.”“All right, then.” Yvonne suddenly found Rosalie rather dull and boring. It seemed Sebastian fancied dull and boring women.On the way back, Yvonne held Rosalie’s arm as she said, “You haven’t told me who your husband is. You already have a baby with him. Why wouldn’t you tell me who he is?”“He’s just an ordinary man. There’s nothing interesting about him.”“Oh, is t

    “I won’t go back on my word. Since I’ve given you my promise, I’ll marry you.”“Then tell me when,” Cynthia demanded in between sobs. “Don’t tell me you’ll only do so after you find me a heart donor, and after the surgery is a success.”“I…” That was precisely what Theodore wanted to say. Now that Cynthia had said it first, he was embarrassed to agree with it. “Why are you silent? Is that really what you think?” Cynthia’s sobs grew louder. “Theo, I’m no fool! I know how difficult it is waiting for a suitable heart donor. For all I know, I might even die before you manage to find one. You just don’t want to marry me, which is why you’re trying to drag things out. If that’s the case, forget about finding a heart donor for me. I’d rather not have a heart than to sit here listening to your empty promises!”Cynthia turned her face away in pain. “Theo, leave! I don’t want to see you again. Let me die alone, since no one cares about me in this whole world anyway.”Cynthia looked pit

    Rose was probably furious with him.Theodore was angry at himself for being unable to fulfill his promises to both her and Cynthia. He had made it clear that they wouldn’t be getting a divorce for the time being, yet now, things had taken such a drastic turn that he was on the verge of letting both of them down.If he had to choose one of the two…Theodore drove home, but didn’t find Rosalie there.Anthony hadn’t seen Rosalie since this morning, and had no idea where she went either.Theodore thought Rosalie might have gone to Rebecca’s, and gave his grandmother a call. She said that Rosalie wasn’t with her. Upon hearing that Rosalie was missing, she grew anxious and berated him.Theodore didn’t want her worrying, and comforted her before heading off to search for Rosalie. He called multiple times, but her phone remained resolutely switched off.Theodore was anxious and frustrated.When Rosalie was trying to find him back then, his phone was switched off as well. He now underst

    Theodore was tired of hearing about double standards, but he could find no words to refute Sebastian.Indeed… On one hand, he was keeping Cynthia company. On the other, he was annoyed by the fact that Rosalie was with another man. He didn’t know why he felt this way, but he had fallen prey to every man’s tendency.“Why are you looking for Rose? Do you need me to pass the phone to her?” Sebastian asked.“No need,” Theodore said, a hint of ire in his voice. “Tell Rose that I’ll see her at the clerk’s office tomorrow at nine in the morning. I’ll bring our resident register along, and we’ll make our divorce official.”Sebastian was stunned for a moment, unable to believe what he had just heard. He was about to say something, when Theodore hung up.Sebastian knew they had been talking about a divorce since long ago, but it never happened due to various reasons.Their talk of divorce was like the story of the boy who cried wolf. Sebastian had no idea when the wolf would really come,

    Rosalie gritted her teeth, and her hands started trembling. She was smiling, yet her eyes began welling up with tears. She quickly arranged the flowers and put down the scissors, not bothering herself with her final outcome of her arrangement. “I’ll head home now and prepare for the divorce tomorrow.”“You don’t need to go home,” Sebastian said, sensing how upset she was. He didn’t feel good letting her go back home, where she was bound to be alone.Even if Theodore was there, he would probably be nasty to her.“He said he’ll be bringing the resident register to the clerk’s office. You don’t need to go home. I’ll take you there tomorrow. It’s not far from here.”“That’s not such a great idea,” Rosalie said with a forced smile.She couldn’t bring herself to smile genuinely.“Why not? You were planning to stay here for a few days. Don’t let this change your plans. That man isn't worth it.”Sebastian strongly believed that Theodore wasn't worthy of Rosalie’s love. Still, he also

    “Although I was disappointed time and time again, I always clung onto some vestige of hope…until last night. He picked up her call and left, no matter how much I begged and tried to stop him.”“I was so angry, I secretly followed him. I saw how anxious he was about Cynthia. He grabbed her hand and promised her that as long as she survived the operation, he’d marry her.”Rosalie laughed. “He said it so easily, as if he had no wife. But that’s not entirely false. Since he doesn’t even love his wife, what’s the difference whether he has one or not?”She calmly narrated the situation, but the desperate hopelessness in her voice was enough to break one’s heart.“Rose, he’s not a good man. You’ll find a better man in the future,” Sebastian said, looking deeply at her.Rosalie shut her eyes. “I’ve known him for a decade. In the one year we were married, I’ve always thought of him as a decent man. One who always strives to be better at work, and is sensible in all things. He treated m

    Rosalie wiped the tears away from her face, and shook her head. “No need, but thank you.”“Okay. If, someday, you ever want me to beat him up, tell me. I’ll be ready to do it.”Sebastian was itching for a fight.Rosalie nodded. “Okay.”But that day would never come. Theodore would be nothing but a stranger after their divorce. She didn’t intend to ever see him again after that.No matter what Theodore did from then on, or how his relationship with Cynthia would progress, it had nothing to do with her.Everything that was bound to come to an end would end. When that time came, all the pain she was feeling right now would go away. She might need some transition time, but she would get better.“I want to be alone for a while. May I?” Rosalie said weakly, her tone melancholic.Sebastian stood up. “Call me if you need anything.”Rosalie nodded.After Sebastian left, she laid down weakly on the bed, all alone. She looked ahead, her eyes empty and soulless as they glazed over. -

    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.

The mole is merely a part of the person, but it doesn
