“We’re friends,” Rosalie said. “He’s accompanying me to view apartments. Let’s go with this unit.”

Rosalie didn’t want to spend more time looking, and wanted to rent any unit that she found acceptable. To her, all units looked around the same and were ultimately all built with steel rods and concrete. As long as the space was tidy, clean and safe, she didn’t need it to be too huge since she was living alone.

“Rose, are you sure? Don’t you want to see a few more units?” Sebastian asked.

“No need,” Rosalie said. “This one will do.”

“All right, then.” Sebastian didn’t oppose her decision.

This apartment looked pretty safe. He would help Rosalie switch out the lock and install a security system for her. No matter how safe an estate was, there was always a risk when a woman lived alone.

The agent seldom came across such a decisive tenant who came to a decision at the first viewing without even negotiating the price. She even signed the contract on the same day, and paid the deposit an

    Rosalie said again, “Is that fine?”After a long time, Theodore finally replied to her. “Got it. I’ll make arrangements for them. Just leave if you wish to.”Theodore sounded as though he couldn’t be bothered with her, and hung up after saying so.Rosalie sighed, and turned to Anthony. “I’ve spoken to Theo. After he moves to his new place, he’ll make arrangements for you and the team. When that time comes, you’ll have a new madam to serve. Clean up this place before you leave, and just shut the door behind you when you do.”Perhaps she might return some day, or perhaps that might never happen. No matter how grand a house is, it loses its meaning and purpose if no one lives in it.Before heading downstairs, Anthony stepped forward and took Rosalie’s luggage case from her. “Madam, let me help you with that.”Rosalie thought of her baby in her womb, and the fact that she should be careful and nodded. “Okay. Thank you.”Anthony followed Rosalie downstairs with the luggage case i

    Theodore silently kept the documents and put them back in his jacket. “Do you feel relieved now? Have a good rest, and wait for a suitable heart donor. You’ll be fine.”“Theo, do you know?” A trace of melancholy flashed past Cynthia’s eyes. “I originally felt hopeless and was imagining the worst, but now… I waited for the day when you’re finally divorced, and now, my heart is filled with hope again. I know you’ll marry me because you’re a man of your word. I’ll survive this no matter what, and live to be your wife.”Compared to how emotional Cynthia looked, Theodore was exceptionally calm. His face was showing hardly any emotion. He simply nodded, and said, “Don’t be so agitated. Keep yourself calm, or it won’t be good for your heart.”Cynthia could see the calm on Theodore’s face, and felt slightly annoyed. Now that he was divorced and could finally marry her, he should be over the moon. But why didn’t he look happy at all? Didn’t he want to divorce Rosalie? Cynthia felt unea

    Meanwhile, Rosalie had settled down in her new apartment.She was only staying here for the time being while she took things a step at a time. The priority was to find a place to stay, after all.At her agreement, Sebastian installed a security password lock along with anti-theft features.If no palm print was registered during a specified period of time after entering the door, it would sound off an alarm that was also connected to the police station, which was just five minutes away.“Sebastian, thank you so much. I don’t know how else to thank you,” she said. Sebastian had helped her so much, and took care of so many things for her.“Don’t mention it. You don’t need to stand on ceremony with me.”Although it was clear between them that they were good friends, Sebastian felt that Rose didn’t feel as at ease with him compared to being with Stephanie.That was naturally so, since she had known Stephanie for a very long time. In his case, he and Rosalie had only known each othe

    Rosalie forced a smile. “Nothing interesting, Grandma. You know that I don’t have a job right now, so…”“Oh yes. On the topic of a job, would you consider working at your mother-in-law’s bank? You majored in finance and that matches the opening they have.”If Rosalie could work there, Rebecca would feel assured. Someone would be taking care of Rosalie and ensure she wouldn’t get harassed. Sydney was slightly aloof by nature, but she was not wicked.“I…” In fact, Rosalie didn’t want to work for any company associated with the Spencers.She was happy to visit Rebecca and keep the latter company frequently, but she would rather avoid the Spencers as much as possible in other aspects of her life.Rosalie’s hesitation made the smile on Rebecca’s face fade. “What’s the matter? You don’t want to?”“Grandma, I’ll find my job on my own, so please don’t worry about it. Or do you find me so incapable that I can’t even find a job for myself, and have to rely on you all for help?”Rosalie po

    Rosalie would cover her ears as her entire body shook. She knew that if she opened the door, her aunt might beat her up. Although her aunt was fierce to her and would scold her when she was sober, the latter seldom laid a finger on her. However, it was a different matter when her aunt was drunk and lost all senses.After getting beaten up twice, Rosalie made it a point to lock herself up in her room each time her aunt got drunk. After screaming at her incessantly and finally running out of steam, her aunt would go back to her room and fall asleep, and Rosalie would be safe.That was a very dark period in her life. She frequently witnessed her aunt bringing different men home. Each time that happened, the only thing she could do was to hide in her room and cover her ears.Subsequently, her aunt abandoned her at the entrance of SK Enterprise’s office, telling her, “Rose, wait here for me. I’ll come here and fetch you in a while.”Rosalie ended up waiting for her for two days, durin

    “The cheek of you to admit that you don’t come here often!” Rebecca scoffed. “You only come when something happens. You never visit regularly. If it weren’t for Rose, I’d probably die all alone.”Theodore stepped forward, and sat next to Rebecca. “Grandma, how could you say that? I promise you, I’ll visit you more often in the future.”Rebecca chuckled. “You’ve said that so many times, I no longer trust your promises.”“Grandma, doesn’t Theo have something to tell you? Why don’t you hear him out?” Rosalie’s tender voice interrupted. Theodore heard her address him, and his heart trembled. He thought he would never hear her call him like that anymore.Rebecca scoffed. “Fine.”She turned to Theodore and asked, “Well, what is it?”Theodore looked past Rebecca toward Rosalie, and was about to speak when Rebecca suddenly stood up. “I need the washroom. I’m getting old, and I keep having the urges. Have a seat first, you two.”With that, Rebecca left, hobbling on her cane and under Z

    Rosalie’s head was buzzing. She wished she could give Theodore a tight slap. He was simply too much!“Ahem.” The cough that sounded like a reminder came, making Rosalie and Theodore freeze on the spot. They slowly turned their heads in the direction of the cough.Not far away, Zane was standing with Grandma. Rosalie and Theodore had no idea when the two appeared, and how much of their conversation they had heard.They only stopped when they heard Zane coughing, as shock registered on their faces.Rebecca stood there in silence as she stared at the two of them.Fury burned in her eyes as she looked in between Theodore and Rosalie.She gripped her cane and banged it hard on the floor. She turned to Zane, and sneered, “Send me back to my room.”After helping Rebecca back to her room and walking out, Rosalie immediately ambushed Zane. He shut the door, and looked up at the two of them with a solemn look on his face. “Madam Jarvis needs rest. Please go back, you two.”Rosalie as

    “Had you not asked for a divorce, none of these would have happened either!” Rosalie screamed at the top of her lungs. Since things had come to this point, she no longer cared. She flung his hand away.“Theodore Spencer, you were the one who asked for a divorce so you could be with Cynthia! Now that we’re divorced, don’t even think about pushing all the blame to me! If you insist that was wrong, the only wrong I did was to marry you! Marrying a man in love with another woman was the biggest mistake of my life!” she yelled agitatedly.Then, she swung open the door of her car and drove off.Theodore stared at the car driving off in the distance, looking forlorn. Every single word she spoke was a hammer knocking on his heart.He sighed, and paused for a moment before walking into the house instead of leaving. Half an hour later, he left the house and drove off.-Rosalie returned to her apartment, feeling completely exhausted. She was supposed to have dinner with Rebecca, but she

    Her concern only worsened the excruciating pain he buried deep in his heart.He felt very conflicted. He desired her concern, but at the same time, he wished she would leave.Theodore looked at her with tears in his eyes, trying his darndest to keep himself calm as he said things that made his heart ache, "Rose, don't show me any more concern. Your care and concern only bring me more pain and hopelessness. No matter how much concern you show me, things between us will never return to the past. You're only adding to my pain.""Theodore Spencer, I don't understand. I really don't!" Rosalie said through her tears. "If you think that my concern only adds to your pain, why did you let Aurora get pregnant with your child?"Rosalie looked at Theodore with eyes filled with anger and sorrow. She suppressed the pain in her heart as she decided to ask him for some answers."Theo, are you taking Aurora as my replacement? Do you find everything I've given you from her?"Anger and sorrow tinge

    Imaging results:Tumor located in the stomach: A tumor was observed in the stomach, located at the anterior stomach wall and around 5 centimeters away from the pylorus. Regular in size and shape with distinct borders. Measures around 1.5cm x 2cm.Imaging features: Tumor in a low-density area relative to that of surrounding gastric walls. No clear compression observed in surrounding structures.Internal characteristics of tumor: Homogeneous density within tumor, no cysts or additional features observed.Lymph node involvement: No irregularities or swelling observed in surrounding lymph nodes"What's this?" Rosalie looked up as shock registered in her eyes. In disbelief, she stammered, "You…you have a tumor in your stomach?"She felt as though she had been struck by lightning.Theodore immediately snatched the report back and turned to leave. However, she grabbed his arm."Wait, explain yourself! What's with this report? You're ill?""None of your business." Theodore tightened h

    “I don’t know!” Rosalie exclaimed bitterly. “I don’t know if you’re guilty of that or not, but when he was lying unconscious on the bed at that time, you forced me to give up on him! That’s the truth!”A sharp pain suddenly pierced through Theodore’s stomach.He was still gripping the test results of his check-up. Compared to the pain in his heart, the pain in his stomach was nothing.“Rosalie Young, go ahead and hate me. I’m bent on sending Sebastian to jail in Melrine. I’ve got to make him pay for what he did.”Theodore didn’t want to explain any further. He felt exhausted.Since Rosalie was intent on defending Sebastian, there was nothing else to talk about between them.Rosalie wanted to stop Theodore from leaving. “Wait. Theo, I’m begging you. Let him off.”“He wants to kill me and you want me to let him off?”“He didn’t want to kill you. I promise you, he won’t dare do something like that again. He just wanted to find me. He really wasn’t thinking of killing you.”“Let m

    After a moment's silence, Theodore said, "Don't tell my girlfriend about this for now.""Of course, Mr. Spencer.""I have some things to attend to. I'll come for the biopsy once I'm done with that."He had to settle things regarding Sebastian.After leaving the doctor's office and on the way back to Aurora, Theodore bumped into Rosalie.They were walking along the same corridor and were about ten yards apart as they looked at each other.After a long time, Rosalie continued walking on as if she hadn't seen him and was about to brush past him. There wasn't much to say between them."Say a proper goodbye to Sebastian," Theodore suddenly said. Theodore's words made Rosalie furrow her brows. She looked up at him and asked, "What do you mean by that?""Sebastian's going to jail. You two don't have much time left with each other."Rosalie's face stiffened. "Why is he going to jail?""He broke into my house with his bodyguards to try to kill Aurora and I. Trespassing private prope

    It was understandable for Justin to forget about it. His health wasn't in optimal condition right now, after all.Rosalie herself would forget what she wanted to say sometimes. Perhaps what he wanted to say wasn't that important, or he wouldn't have forgotten it so easily.Seeing her staying by his side and taking such great care of him, Justin had a lot to tell her. That included the words he wanted to tell her before Sebastian came in.'Rose, what if I like you?'That was what he wanted to say.Emotions roiled in his heart at that moment and he almost couldn't keep them under control. However, Sebastian's arrival had cut him off.After Sebastian left, he realized that it was pointless even if he said what he wanted to say. Rosalie had a husband and a child, and a happy family.He, on the other hand, was an outlaw. He had no right to like anybody.He couldn't even protect his kin. What right did he have to fancy another woman?It was enough for him as long as she was happy. H

    Rosalie sighed. "Seb, don't worry. I won't meet him in private. He has Aurora by his side now. How could I possibly have any interaction with him? Go back with peace of mind.""Rose, promise me that you won't trust Theodore again. I'm really worried that he'll hurt you again."Rosalie nodded. "I got it. I've seen through him. Don't worry about me. Go be busy with what you need to do."Sebastian hugged her and bade her farewell.The plane was about to take off.He soon left with the baby in his arms.Rosalie watched them as they vanished out of her line of sight, and couldn't hold back her tears. She couldn't bear to leave her baby, and really wanted to fly back home with them.However, she couldn't leave an injured Justin behind. She also had her studies to complete, so she had to make the difficult decision of staying in Melrine for a few more months.Rosalie returned to the hospital feeling despondent.Justin saw her return, and shot her a warm smile. "You're back."Rosalie

    Sebastian appeared very genuine. His eyes were filled with guilt when he looked at Justin."It's fine. As long as you desire to protect Rose," Justin said flatly.Sebastian's eyes narrowed, flashing briefly.What did that mean?Of course he desired to protect Rosalie! However, it wasn't Justin's place to comment on that.Rosalie was his wife, how was she related to Justin? What was this man thinking, trying to lecture him?Even so, Sebastian didn't say much. He simply smiled and said, "Have a good rest. I'll be off."Although it was only for a mere instant, Justin keenly caught the look in Sebastian's eyes. Despite that, he remained unperturbed.-Rosalie followed Sebastian back to their accommodation.The baby was still there.Rosalie kept holding him in her arms, unwilling to part with him. Throughout their journey to the airport, she kept carrying the baby, feeling terrible inside."I'm sorry. Mommy didn't take good care of you, and now I'm saying goodbye to you. But don

    "It's not that, Rose. There's been some issues at the company, and it's quite urgent. I have to go back to deal with it.""Really? What happened?""Some shareholders are causing trouble. I won't know the details until I get back, but my dad asked me to go back as soon as possible. It might be because of what happened to me recently, and now people at the company think I can't take over. They're starting to cause a ruckus and trying to seize power."Rosalie frowned, her expression becoming more serious. "Seb, does that mean you have to go back? When will you leave?""I'm leaving right now.""Right now? So soon?"Sebastian nodded. "Yes, the plane is already ready. I need to leave immediately. Rose, do you want to come back with me?""Seb, I can't go with you. I still need to stay here and take care of Justin. Plus, I haven't finished my studies yet."Sebastian sighed. "I figured as much, but I really have to go back now.""Then you should go back and deal with the situation first. Don't

    "Thank you for not giving up on me, thank you for steadfastly staying by my side, and thank you for praying for me."He seemed very haggard, as though he had endured endless torment. Yet, he still exuded a captivating handsomeness.Though his eyes appeared dim from exhaustion, they radiated determination. His deep, dark pupils seemed like a mystery, hiding countless untold stories.Rosalie was surprised. "How did you know I prayed?""I guessed," he said with a gentle smile, the corner of his mouth curving into a soft, charming arc.Rosalie smiled back at him. It wasn't too hard to guess, actually."Anyway, I'm glad that you're awake now. I'm sorry Theodore and Sebastian hurt you. They didn't know and thought you were a bad person. They were just too worried about me. I apologize on their behalf. Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for you. I'll cover all the medical bills and any future compensation and care. You don't need to worry about anything.""Those two men seem very concerned
