Chapter 23

Author: Night Revelations
"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.

    "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

    Theodore placed the lunch boxes on the coffee table. There were exactly two portions, one for him and one for Cynthia. When he opened the lunch boxes, he noted that the ingredients were the same for both, but one had chili peppers while the other didn't.Brows furrowed, he asked, "Why did you include chili peppers? I thought I told you to not use any spices."His words brought Rosalie's chaotic thoughts back to normal.She regained her composure and said, "I just threw them in randomly. If you don't want it, then forget it."Theodore seemed to sense something from Rosalie's cold tone. But upon second thought, he knew neither he nor Rosalie liked chili peppers. So, since Rosalie wasn't making the food for herself, it was probably just a mistake."Mrs. Spencer, have you had lunch?" Cynthia asked politely, her complexion somewhat pallid and fragile."She already ate," Theodore answered for Rosalie.Whenever Rosalie brought him lunch previously, she had usually already eaten at home

    Theodore and Rosalie brought both children to Justin's tomb.Before they left, Rosalie said that she and Chelsea wanted to spend some time alone with Justin.Theodore brought Jake to the car to wait for them.Golden sunlight shone on the land, feeling warm and toasty and giving the earth a beautiful glow.Rosalie caressed the tombstone. "Justin, I'm sorry for not coming to visit for such a long time."The last time she came back was a few months ago, during which she snuck a peak at his tombstone.Rosalie pulled out a bone fragment. "That's because you're always by my side, which is why I think that I can bring you everywhere I go. You're not just here at this tombstone."Justin, Theo and I have reconciled. He did so much for me, even sacrificing his own life for me. I can't just stand idly by and do nothing about it. I can't bring myself to reject him ruthlessly again and again."You can say that I'm moved, or that I fell in love with him once more. He's just too good, and I c

    Jake had so much fun today and was exhausted by the time he reached home. After his shower, he crawled into bed and fell right asleep without any coaxing whatsoever. Jake would sometimes sleep in the bedroom with Chelsea, and sometimes they slept separately.At night, when Rosalie went to Chelsea's room to tuck her in and tell her a bedtime story, she asked, "Chelsea, how was your day with Theodore?""Hmm, it was alright," Chelsea said. "But Mr. Spencer was so silly, he burnt the food. I only got to eat lunch very late.""Is that so?" Rosalie burst out laughing. "How silly of him indeed.""But Mr. Spencer is quite nice," Chelsea said. "I like him. He said that I can call him Daddy."Rosalie's eyes lit up. "Do you want to call him that?""I do," Chelsea said with a nod, "but I'll do that tomorrow."Chelsea yawned. She felt tired, too.Rosalie caressed her cheek. "Goodnight, my darling. Go to sleep."-Rosalie returned to her room, took a shower, and laid on the bed. Theodo

    Their parent-child bonding efforts officially began the next day.Rosalie brought Jake to the theme park. In the beginning, Jake felt rather stiff and reserved. It was his first time alone with his mom, after all.As time went by, Rosalie's earnestness, concern, and gentle patience with him slowly opened him up.They sat on the carousel, drove the bumper cars, rode on the Viking ship, zoomed down slides, bounced on the trampolines, and sailed on mini-boats. They had a whale of a time.Jake was covered with sweat, but he was so happy, he didn't want the day to end.He had grown closer to his mom, so much so that he would jump into her arms, hugging her and asking for kisses.Rosalie did not hold back from expressing her love for him and even carried him on her back as they continued exploring the park.Jake was very obedient and came down very soon, for fear that Rosalie might get tired. They moved on to the next attraction hand-in-hand.Rosalie found out one thing from Jake, wh

    Some time later, Rosalie realized that Jake was being rather sullen.Each time she asked him whether something was wrong, he would brush her away, claiming that he was fine before running off.It was a Saturday, and Rosalie didn't need to go to work. She was seated on the couch with a book when Chelsea ran over, her braids swaying behind her. "Mommy, can you give me a hug?"How could Rosalie say no to her adorable little daughter? She shut the book and said, "But of course. Come on over."Rosalie opened her arms, very willing to show Chelsea affection.Chelsea crawled up onto the couch happily, sitting on Rosalie's lap and diving into her embrace.Jake happened to see it all.Rosalie noticed Jake standing a short distance away and was about to say something to him when he ran off.The smile on Rosalie's face faded as a look of worry took over.At night, Rosalie put Chelsea under Theodore's care and went to Jake, wanting to speak to him alone."Jake, what's with you recently

    A gentle breeze lifted the curtains slightly in the deep of the night.Rosalie laid in Theodore's embrace, panting slightly. Her cheek leaned against his chest, feeling his heart pounding heavily, and her cheeks flushed.She never expected this day to come between her and Theodore, yet everything happened in a flash. He went to bed with her just like that, bewitched and completely infatuated with her.Although they were once husband and wife and had been intimate countless times, this felt different from the last. Things felt more intense this time around."Rose, are you happy?"Although Theodore's liver had been doing well over the last three months of recuperation, he was still worried that his fitness level might be affected before his liver was fully recovered.Rosalie gave him a slight smile. "Of course, I am. You almost crushed me."Her face flushed the moment she spoke those words. She hugged Theodore tight, feeling safe and secure.She could sense that he was telling th

    "Theo, have you had a woman over the past five years?" Rosalie asked very frankly.They weren't naive young men and women but mature adults with experience in this matter.Theodore was a red-blooded young man who had his needs. Suppressing his desires, which were absolutely normal, would only jeopardize his health.Theodore was getting angry. "Am I someone like that to you, going to bed with a woman I don't love just to satisfy my physical needs?""Aren't men all like that?" Rosalie said. She didn't mean it in a scornful way but simply highlighted it as a typical observation.Lonely men and women in the city were bound to seek companionship in some places and part ways after the night.Someone as powerful and influential as Theodore wouldn't even need to go searching for someone else. Women flocked toward him like bees to honey."Why can't I be an exception?" He was in no state whatsoever to find another woman over the past five years and would always deal with his sexual desire

Over the past five years, not only was she busy learning and working, but she also managed to write the book she had conceptualized and even gotten it published. However, this book was only available in Briusian and not exported to Blencalgo.Rosalie's book
