Theodore clutched the pillow beneath him, his brows furrowing. "Why are you here?"

At first, he thought he was imagining things. How could Anthony’s hands feel like a woman's? It all felt surreal, as though the pain had triggered hallucinations.

Sensing the woman behind him wasn't responding, Theodore let out a wry smile. Of course, it was just his imagination. There was no way she would be here; she was probably with Sebastian right now.

Realizing it was a hallucination, Theodore stopped talking.

Just as the person behind him finished applying the medicine, a woman's voice broke the silence.

"All done. Let me wrap your wounds with some gauze. Sit up for a moment."

Theodore froze, enduring the pain as he quickly sat up and turned to see the woman behind him.

Rosalie was wearing a light yellow dress, her hair styled in a bun—she looked very sweet and innocent. If she went to a high school, people might mistake her for a student.

Theodore was stunned. "Why are you here?"

"I..."

    "You knew Sebastian long ago, but you told me you met him in school. Isn't that a lie?""I..." Rosalie was speechless. How many times would he bring this up?"Theodore, do you have to be so petty?""Am I petty, or are you the liar?! Didn't you admit it yourself later? You’ve been involved with him all along! You said it yourself! I didn't imagine it!" Theodore yelled.True, Rosalie had said she and Sebastian had been together for a long time—but that was out of anger.She stood up from the bed. "So what you're saying is, what you told Grandma wasn't the truth.""That's right! I just said it to make her feel better, to make her think I was taking all the blame. I didn't want her to think I was a complete bastard, but she still hit me. If I'd known, I wouldn't have bothered. It was a waste of time, and I got a beating for it. What bad luck!"His tone was full of frustration.Rosalie clenched her fists. She had been genuinely moved when Rebecca had told her what Theodore had said.

    With a sudden move, Theodore grabbed her wrist. "Don't go."For some reason, he suddenly felt incredibly insecure and desperately wanted her to stay. Despite his usual stubbornness, at this moment, he seemed as helpless as a child.Pain could drive people mad, and it could also make them vulnerable. Sometimes, the pain in the heart was worse than any physical wound.Rosalie looked down at his hand, which was trembling even as it held her wrist. He was clearly in a lot of pain; there was no way he could fake this. His face was pale, and beads of sweat dotted his forehead."I'll take you to the hospital now," she said gently. "I'll drive you there, okay?"Her voice was soothing, as if she were comforting him."I don't want to go to the hospital," Theodore said, looking up at her with dark, bottomless eyes. "The doctor prescribed this medicine. I'll be fine in a few days. There's no need to go to the hospital."Rosalie sat on the edge of the bed. "Then lie down and don't move aroun

    "I..."Rosalie suddenly realized how skillfully this man could twist words, and it left her speechless. It wasn’t so much that he twisted words, but more that she hadn't been careful with hers. She had told him to let her know if it hurt. If only she hadn't said that!She hadn't expected Theodore to cry out in pain at every moment, like a child."Just bear with it a little. I have to wrap the gauze properly, or your wound will be exposed and that's not safe."Rosalie sat behind him, carefully wrapping the gauze around his torso. Her breath brushed his ear, close and then far, as she moved. When she reached his chest, she leaned forward to wrap the gauze from her left hand to her right. Theodore suddenly turned his head, his lips brushing against her nose.Rosalie froze, an electric jolt passing through her nose. Theodore nonchalantly turned his head back, as if nothing had happened. She snapped back to reality, realizing her heart had skipped a beat.The mere touch of this ma

    Theodore stared at Rosalie with a calm but expectant look. "Tell me again, and I'll believe you." Rosalie was silent for a long time, feeling a rush of indescribable complexity. She sighed, and said, "Yes, he and I are just friends."Theodore seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief, his expression betraying his emotions. They were already divorced; Rosalie had no reason to lie to him. However, thinking about their divorce was a stab to his heart.What was the point of believing she and Sebastian were just friends now? Even if he had believed her earlier, it wouldn't change the fact that they had divorced.Rosalie looked at him suspiciously. Maybe it was her imagination, but she thought she saw both relief and sadness on Theodore's face. It was absurd—he was the one who divorced her to marry another woman.Perhaps because he was too relaxed, Theodore almost forgot about the pain in his back and instinctively leaned back.Rosalie saw what was happening and rushed over, "Don'

    Sometimes, life was full of unexpected twists and turns. Rosalie and Theodore's relationship was like a rollercoaster, full of ups and downs both before and after their divorce. She didn't understand whether their relationship was something that could never be cut off and resolved, or if it was an entanglement destined in their fate.Lying in his arms, Rosalie felt a whirlwind of emotions. She lifted her hand again to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Theodore's heavy breathing gradually calmed down as he lowered his head, greedily inhaling the familiar, comforting scent of the woman in his arms. What was once easily accessible had now become a luxury. This might be his last chance to indulge in this feeling.Slowly, Theodore released her. Rosalie felt his arms loosen, and gave a resigned smile as she tried to get up. “I... Ah!” she cried out as her foot slipped, causing her to tumble back into his arms.Theodore tried to catch her, but it was too late. She fell face-first, he

    "It's not what you think! Yes, the tissue is wet, but it's just sweat. If you don't believe me, feel it!" Rosalie stepped forward, holding out the soaked tissue.Theodore sighed and shook his head, rubbing his aching forehead."Stay back," Wesley said, pulling Sydney behind him protectively. The couple looked at Rosalie as if she were a wild animal. "You two can handle your private matters on your own. We're leaving.""No, really, we didn't do anything!" Rosalie insisted, hurrying after them. "Touch it, you'll see. It's just water! It's not sticky at all. If you don't believe me, check Theodore's pants. They're still on."Theodore groaned internally, wishing he could disappear or dig a hole to hide in.Hearing the word "sticky," Wesley and Sydney quickened their pace, practically running away.As Rosalie continued to chase after them, Theodore called out, "Rose."She stopped and turned, "What?""Let it go. Let them think what they want."Rosalie frowned. "But they misunderstoo

    Wesley withdrew his hand awkwardly. Seeing Rosalie nearby, he gave her a resigned smile and stepped away from Sydney.Rosalie approached them. "Hello, Mr. Spencer, Mrs. Spencer."Sydney frowned, setting down her teacup. "Why are you calling us that? It's only been a few days, and you don't recognize us anymore?"Rosalie forced herself to smile. "Theo and I are divorced now, so..."At the mention of their divorce, Wesley and Sydney exchanged glances. They didn't seem particularly surprised, as if they already knew."I heard about it from Mom," Sydney said calmly. "But even after the divorce, you still call her 'Grandma.' Why don't you call us Mom and Dad anymore? Are you playing favorites?""Huh? I..." Rosalie was taken aback. Sydney seemed upset, and Rosalie hurried to explain, "I didn’t mean to, I just..."She had never heard this perspective before. Usually, people talked about parents or in-laws playing favorites, not the daughter-in-law."That’s enough, Sydney. Don't scare

    "Theo and I are indeed living separately. I don't live here anymore. I just came by to pick up some things and check on him," Rosalie explained.Sydney raised an eyebrow. "Really? You came to check on him, and conveniently left the door open while getting all cozy?"Rosalie blushed. "It's not what it looked like. I...""Enough, no more explanations," Sydney interrupted. "Whatever the case, you two looked pretty intimate. If you're so reluctant to part, why did you get divorced in the first place?""I..."Sydney's tone was aggressive, and Rosalie struggled to respond kindly."Why aren't you saying anything? Or do you enjoy the thrill of being divorced, free to play around outside while still getting close to Theo?" she went on.Her words were dripping with sarcasm.Rosalie felt a pang of discomfort. She furrowed her brow slightly, trying to stay calm and polite. "That's not my intention. I don't know why you think that way, but my conscience is clear," she said.She had only

    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

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
