Sebastian seemed to have guessed something after observing the scene before him, but he didn't say anything.

Rosalie struggled forcefully to break free from Theodore's embrace, feeling anxious under the scrutiny of so many eyes. She ignored her husband's grim expression, her concerned gaze falling on Sebastian.

"Mr. Carter, I'm so sorry. Would you like to go to the hospital?" she asked.

"I'm fine," Sebastian replied, his brow furrowed as he clutched his chest, clearly in pain.

Just as Rosalie was about to approach to check on him, Theodore grabbed her wrist and forcefully pulled her back, his face terrifyingly cold.

"Let go of me!" Rosalie tried to break free from his grip, but the man was incredibly strong.

Theodore wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. His hostility-filled gaze was directed at Sebastian. As he kept his hold on Rosalie, he pulled a check out of his pocket and stuffed it into the other man's suit pocket.

Theodore’s voice was tinged wi

    "Rose, did you need something?"Theodore didn't directly answer her question, but it was true. Cynthia was his junior."I need to fill out my preferences for my university entrance exams. Do you have any suggestions regarding majors?"Theodore continued working with his head down as he replied, "Choose something you're interested in.""Then, I'll choose...""Sorry to interrupt," said Cynthia from the office doorway. "Mr. Spencer, Mr. Johnson is online and waiting for you."Theodore hummed in response and closed the file he was holding. "I'll be right there."As he walked past Rosalie, he said, "I'm a bit busy. Let's talk later.""Oh, okay," Rosalie replied, looking somewhat disappointed as she lowered her head.Noticing the lack of movement behind him, Theodore stopped and turned around. Eventually, he approached Rosalie and grasped her shoulder."What's wrong?""It's nothing. You should go attend to your business," Rosalie said, fearing she would delay him further."Tell m

    "Rosalie, how many times do I have to remind you? We're not divorced yet!""What..."What does it matter if they were divorced or not?That was what Rosalie wanted to say. But seeing her husband’s dark expression, she knew continuing to argue would only worsen the situation. She wondered when he had become so unreasonable.Suddenly, her stomach churned violently. Rosalie quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the car door, and rushed out before retching uncontrollably. Theodore quickly followed and knelt beside her.Rosalie clutched at her chest and took a few deep breaths. Fortunately, she hadn't eaten anything in the morning, or she surely would have thrown up even more."It's been days. Haven't you been taking your medicine?" Theodore asked as he gently stroked her back.Worried that he might suspect something, Rosalie turned her head and pretended to be angry. "It's all because of you! That sudden stop you did made me uncomfortable. I'm already prone to motion sickness."Th

    "Oh, okay."Rosalie didn't say much about Theodore's answer. This was his home, and he could stay if he wanted to. Although it was such a normal thing, there was a faint sense of joy in Rosalie's heart.During lunch, Rosalie didn’t have much of an appetite. Seeing that she was mostly eating vegetables, Theodore kept putting meat on her plate."Why are you only eating vegetables? Have some meat."Even the sight of meat made Rosalie feel nauseous, but she forced herself to eat it to avoid suspicion. Fortunately, she had taken some anti-nausea medicine that was specifically for pregnancy symptoms beforehand. So, she could endure it for a while."What kind of job do you want?" Theodore suddenly asked.Rosalie looked up at him in confusion. "What?""Didn't I say I'd arrange a job for you after you graduate? What do you want to do?""Oh... It's fine. I'll find a job on my own.""You'll find one yourself? Aren't you going to work at SK Enterprise?""No." Rosalie smiled bitterly. "We

    After Theodore left, Rosalie called the university and inquired about Sebastian's condition. Learning that he was in the hospital, she immediately rushed over after obtaining the address. Finding Sebastian's ward with the door open, Rosalie walked in to see the doctor examining him.When Sebastian saw Rosalie, he smiled faintly. "Hello, Ms. Young."Rosalie hurried over. "Doctor, how is he?""Mr. Carter has two broken ribs," the doctor replied."What?!" Rosalie was anxious after hearing the doctor's reply. "Is he in any danger?"Sebastian was about to reassure her that he was fine, but seeing her anxious expression, he inexplicably felt at a loss for words and swallowed his response.The doctor shook his head. "Don't worry, it's not that serious. We've set his ribs, but he still needs to stay in the hospital for observation overnight."Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Thank you."With a final nod, the doctor left the ward.Rosalie sat on the chair next to the be

    "Go on a walk with me outside," Sebastian said."Huh?" Rosalie thought she had misheard. "Where do you want to go?""Not out of the hospital, just around the vicinity, okay?""Of course. But isn't it too simple? You really just want my company on a walk?""What's wrong? Are you unwilling to do that?""No, I'm fine with it. But can you walk?""I can. My legs aren't broken."Sebastian got out of bed, but after taking just a few steps, he suddenly clutched his chest, his brows furrowing slightly.Rosalie hurriedly supported him. "Let me find you a wheelchair.""No need, I want to walk."Seeing Sebastian's stubbornness, Rosalie didn't argue further and helped him walk out of the hospital room. As they turned the corner of the corridor, they met a couple walking towards them.Rosalie's face paled in surprise when she saw them — it was Theodore and Cynthia, what a coincidence!Theodore was supporting Cynthia, who looked extremely exhausted and unwell.When Theodore noticed Rosal

    Rosalie thought Sebastian would ask her questions. Considering the awkward and complex situation they had just experienced, anyone would be curious. But Sebastian remained silent, sitting beside her without uttering a word. Rosalie didn't want to answer such questions either, so his silence was appreciated.After a long silence, Rosalie spoke first, "Mr. Carter, I didn't know you were the major shareholder of Ashwick University."Sebastian hummed softly. "Skycrest Enterprise has invested in many schools.""Skycrest Enterprise?" Rosalie was taken aback by his reply. "You're Skycrest Enterprise's...?"Sebastian extended his hand and smiled. "Let me reintroduce myself. I'm Sebastian Carter, Skycrest Enterprise's CEO."It was only then that Rosalie realized how deeply Sebastian had concealed his identity.Skycrest Enterprise was a major conglomerate, coveted by countless individuals who sought the best benefits. Like SK Enterprise, it was a multinational corporation with substantial

    Late at night, when Rosalie was dozing off, she suddenly felt someone pressing down on her. Startled, she screamed loudly."Ahhh...!"Theodore covered her mouth and hushed her. "It's me." He turned on the room light so Rosalie could see that it was really him on top of her. Breathing a sigh of relief, she glanced at the time to see that it was one in the morning."Why are you back?" she asked."Is it strange for me to come home?"With a tinge of alcohol on his breath, it seemed like Theodore had been drinking. He lowered his head and kissed his wife’s lips, deftly undoing her sleepwear."Ugh..." Rosalie pushed Theodore away with all her strength, hurriedly covering his mouth with her hand. "Let go of me!"Theodore grabbed her hand and pressed her down firmly on the bed. "What's with you? Don't want me to touch you?""Weren't you with Cynthia? Stay with her, then! Why did you come back here?!"Did this man think he could have it both ways? That he could come home and have his

    "Come to my office at noon," said Theodore as he straightened his tie."Are we going to sign the divorce papers?" Rosalie asked directly.She hoped to sign the papers and get the divorce over with, sparing herself the unnecessary sadness of dragging it out.Theodore frowned at his wife’s anxious demeanor. "You'll find out when you get there."With that, he left the room. There was a sense of unspoken anger in his movements.Rosalie was doubtful, but she waited till noon. Unsure if she should go before or after lunch, she called Theodore.When the call connected, Rosalie immediately asked, "It's noon. Should I come to your office now?""Yeah. Come over," Theodore replied."Have you eaten?" Rosalie asked out of habit."Not yet.""How about I pack a lunchbox for you and bring it over?"She knew Theodore often got too busy to have lunch, or simply grabbed something quick. Sometimes, he even just had a cup of coffee instead of a proper meal. That’s why she occasionally made lunch

    Rosalie hurriedly handed the baby to Theodore.She was at her wits' end. What exactly was going on?Perhaps this was because they were truly father and son. Sometimes, there were no explanations for things that were simply amazing and mysterious.Theodore felt energized looking at the baby. Rosalie, on the other hand, was exhausted."Rose, why don't I stay here and coax the baby to sleep? You can go to bed first.""How can I make you do that? You need to rest early.""But Steve cries each time I put him down. If he keeps crying, it'll disturb you and Justin, or even our neighbors.""Well…" Rosalie didn't know what to do."How about this," Theodore suggested, "I'll give you Steve. If he doesn't cry, I'll leave. If he cries, then do as I say. I'll stay to coax him to sleep and I'll leave once he's asleep, okay?"Rosalie pondered for a moment before nodding. "Okay, then."She stretched her arms out to receive the baby.The moment Theodore put the baby in Rosalie's arms, the bab

    Rosalie stood at the door, watching Theodore coaxing Steve. She paused in her steps.It didn't take long for Theodore to calm Steve down. When he saw Steve stop crying, a gentle smile appeared on his face."I'm leaving now. I won't disturb you. You and your mom should go to sleep early."He carefully placed Steve on the bed, but as soon as he let go, Steve started crying again.Theodore quickly picked him up again and soothed him. "What's wrong, baby?"After coaxing Steve for a while, Steve stopped crying and began giggling. "Steve, be a good boy and sleep, okay?"At that moment, Rosalie walked forward. "Theo."Hearing her voice, Theodore immediately came back to his senses and realized that he had overstepped his boundaries."Sorry, I rushed in as soon as I heard him cry. Here, I'll give him back to you."He wasn't sure why, but when he heard Steve cry, he felt sad. He had an urge to comfort Steve, almost as if it were a responsibility.Theodore stepped forward and handed Steve to Ros

    Rosalie's heart trembled. She rushed forward and covered Theodore's mouth with her hand, her eyes filled with intense panic. "Don't say such things."He had a son now, but he was speaking of an end to his lineage. She also didn't want Theodore to die a terrible death.Theodore grabbed her wrist and suddenly pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips.Rosalie's eyes widened, and her mind felt like it exploded in that instant. In a panic, she stretched out both hands to push him away, trying to resist—but he wouldn't budge.Rosalie dared not struggle or shout too hard, fearing that Justin might hear. Justin would certainly come out to stop them. He was injured and running a fever; his body couldn't handle such an ordeal. He definitely wouldn't be a match for Theodore. Rosalie had no choice but to helplessly close her eyes, allowing him to kiss her.After a long while, Theodore finally let her go. He cupped the back of her head with one hand and held her waist with the

    Theodore walked in, and Rosalie passed by him directly. She found a thermometer and went back into the room to take Justin's temperature. The thermometer read 104 degrees."Justin, you have a fever. We need to go to the hospital."Rosalie tried to help him sit up, but Justin grabbed her wrist. "I can't go to the hospital. I'll be fine after one night of rest.""No, your temperature is too high, and you're injured. Your wound is definitely inflamed.""I'm really fine, don't worry. Do you have any fever medicine here?"Seeing Rosalie's anxious expression, Theodore closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger within him. He walked over and said, "I can call a doctor to treat him."Rosalie turned to him and asked, "Will they talk about it?""I guarantee they won't. I know people who are professionals in secret treatments. They will not reveal a thing."Rosalie thought for a moment, then looked at Justin. "Can we call the doctor? Please? Otherwise, your life will be at risk

    After Theodore hung up the phone, he walked to the liquor cabinet and opened a bottle of whiskey, pouring it into a glass.Just as he was about to take a sip, he suddenly thought of his stomach and put the glass aside. He had promised Rosalie many times that he would stop drinking. If he drank now, he would feel guilty.He walked over to the window, gazing blankly at the night sky. The city was especially bright, shimmering with light, as if the stars were hovering on earth.Why was Justin at Rosalie's place at this hour? Was he really sick? Or was it just an excuse?Furthermore, what was Justin's sudden arrival in Blencalgo about? With his status, he could only bring trouble and danger to Rosalie.Theodore became more and more troubled as he thought about it.He walked to the wardrobe, opened it, and took out his coat.-Rosalie was lying in bed, unable to sleep. She gently held Steve and stared at his face, thinking, 'Steve, if your grandmother wakes up, I will tell Theodore that you

    Aurora tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.She turned over and asked, "Angie, how did Rebecca react after the injection?"Angie was holding her phone, reading a novel online. Hearing Aurora's question, she turned to her and asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet?""How could I sleep?""She didn't have any reaction," Angie replied.Aurora recalled what Yerick had told her. The solution was provided by Yerick, who had said that there wouldn't be any special reaction once it was administered. They just needed to wait. Aurora didn't know if the solution would work.She turned her head and saw that Angie was still absorbed in reading, as if nothing had happened."Angie, how can you still read a novel? After what happened, can you still concentrate?""What's so hard to handle? It's just a dead old woman. Nothing to worry about."Angie lay back on the bed. She started cursing again while reading a novel. "The female lead is such a saint, but now she's acting so promiscuously. Don't blame t

    Rosalie helped Justin onto the bed, and he lay down. "Rest well. You can stay here as long as you need to recover."She took the blanket and put it over him."Justin, how long were you waiting outside my door?"Justin smiled faintly. "Not too long."In reality, he had waited for several hours. However, knowing she was busy, he didn't want to disturb her, so he waited quietly on his own."Why didn't you call me beforehand? If you had, I would have come back earlier."Despite his injuries, he had been waiting at her door. She felt he must have waited for quite a while."I planned to come after my wound healed, but I wasn't sure how long that would take. I wanted to tell you about this as soon as possible because I was worried about you. I needed you to think about whether there was anyone suspicious around you.""I can't think of anyone suspicious… Oh, by the way, Theodore lied to me earlier, saying he had stomach cancer. I really believed him. Later, I received an email with his medica

    "It's clearly not! Look at you. Don't move, I'll grab the first-aid kit."Rosalie got up, went to the cabinet, and retrieved a medical kit before rushing back. Thankfully, she had a medical kit on hand."Lie down here. I'll help you treat it."She had treated Justin's injuries before, so she was a bit more experienced now.Justin didn't resist this time, allowing Rosalie to undo the bandages on his shoulder. When she saw the wound, she was shocked. The blood stains on it had already blackened."How did it get like this? We need to go to the hospital!""It's fine, Rose. Don't worry about me. I'll be okay."Justin opened the medical kit and pulled out the necessary supplies. Then, he used a cotton ball soaked in antiseptic to clean the wound."Justin, let me do it," Rosalie said, taking the tweezers from his hand. "Lie still."She understood his reluctance to go to the hospital, likely to avoid further complications. So, she stopped urging him to go to the hospital. For now, she would tr

    "Something came up suddenly, so I had to deal with it. Sorry about standing you up last time," Justin said.Rosalie wanted to say more, but realizing they were still standing at the door, she quickly said, "Let's head inside."She entered the password and opened the door. Justin followed her inside.Rosalie carefully laid the sleeping baby on the bed before closing the door and heading into the living room."Justin, why didn't you let me know you were coming?"After she found the apartment, she had sent him a message with her new address. She hadn't expected him to show up unannounced."Sorry. I should've informed you beforehand. I'll leave now," Justin said, looking a bit embarrassed as he turned to go.Rosalie quickly stopped him. "That's not what I meant. I just didn't expect you to come suddenly. It's not that I don't want you here. I'm happy to see you—I was worried something had happened to you."Justin gave a faint, bitter smile. His pale face looked somber. "Rose, if… One day s
