“Don’t be scared,” Theodore said, holding her hand. “I’ll help you chase those bad guys away.”

Rosalie burst out laughing. “What if you’re the bad guy?”

Theodore’s face stiffened. “Do you mean to tell me that I was the bad guy who chased you in your nightmare?”

Rosalie, wanting to tease him, nodded. “Yes. You were chasing after me with a knife, wanting to kill me. I was so frightened.”

Theodore’s face turned cold, and he stood up. “Looks like I didn’t chase you hard enough. I would’ve chopped you to pieces straight away.”

It was bad enough she had a nightmare. To think she even dreamt of him as a bad guy who wanted to kill her! How terrible was he in her eyes?

Then, he was reminded of how she thought he would throw her down the stairs last time.

Ridiculous!

He didn’t dare to continue thinking about how tarnished his image was in her eyes.

Perhaps her impression of him had sunk so low—beyond even the deepest valley, deep in the crevices of the earth, close to its core.

    “You’re still ticklish at this age?” Theodore grumbled. “It’s not as if I’ve never touched you there.”He had touched every inch of her body, after all. Now that they were divorced, she was stopping him from touching her. How petty of her! The moment the thought emerged in his mind, Theodore found himself laughable.They were already divorced. Of course she wouldn’t let him touch her!He was the petty one.He stood up from the bed, and said, “Go wash up. Breakfast is ready.”He had already informed the kitchen to start preparing breakfast, in case she felt hungry when she woke up.Rosalie said nothing further, and walked into the washroom. She stood before the mirror, and stared at her reflection in it. She was still feeling woozy as images from her nightmare last night replayed in her mind.After washing up, she walked out of the washroom and found that Theodore was already gone.Rosalie picked up her phone, and texted Sebastian. ‘Had your breakfast yet?’What she reall

    Theodore stared blankly at her, silent for a long time.Rosalie said nothing further, and turned to leave. As she left, Theodore didn’t stop her.She realized it was meaningless letting things go on like this. They were divorced, and he was due to marry Cynthia.Yet, Theodore didn’t call Cynthia even after Rosalie left. Instead, he sat on the bed in a daze.He hugged the pillow Rosalie slept on last night, and buried his head in it to take in the remnants of her fragrance.Meanwhile, Rosalie drove back to her apartment.Until now, Sebastian had yet to reply to her text. It had been over two hours since she texted him.Rosalie wasn’t a superstitious person, but with the world being so huge and filled with strange happenings, she had to be cautious with things.That dream felt so real, and it made her anxious the more she thought about it. She decided to give Sebastian a call.However, her call went unanswered. All she received was the automated response. “The number you’ve di

    “I don’t know,” Yvonne said. Upon sensing the panic in Rosalie’s voice, she added, “What’s the matter? Why are you looking for him?”“Nothing much. I’m just a little worried I couldn’t contact him.”“I see,” Yvonne said, her eyes darting around. ‘Rose is pretty worried about Seb,’ she thought.“Rose, I’ll give Seb a call and try to find him before calling you back, okay?” she suggested.“Sure. I’ll wait for you. Please let me know once you find him, or just text me,” Rosalie replied. “Sure.”After that, they hung up.Yvonne called Sebastian’s phone, but he didn’t answer her call, either.Strange. Was he furious over what happened this morning, and wasn’t picking up calls on purpose?Yvonne began to feel uneasy, too. She called Sebastian’s assistant.He picked up the call, and greeted her respectfully, “Ms. Carter, how may I help you?”“Is Seb in the office?”The assistant replied in hushed tones, “Mr. Carter is in the office, but…”“But what?” Yvonne asked doubtfully. “

    “I’ll come along,” Rosalie said without hesitation. “Can you send me the address of his office? I’ll drive there right away, and we’ll meet there.”“Let’s go together,” Yvonne suggested. “I’ll drive to your place to pick you up. You’re pregnant right now, and the baby’s safety is of utmost priority.”Rosalie could sense the panic in her chest. It wasn’t suitable for her to drive right now.She bowed her head and caressed her belly. “Alright, then. I’ll send you my address. Thank you so much.”-Less than half an hour later, a red sports car stopped right downstairs.Yvonne was decked in a fashionable blue slip dress, her hair down, and wearing a cool pair of shades. She looked captivating and made of money.Rosalie, on the other hand, was very modestly dressed in a beige cotton shirt, jeans, and a pair of white sports shoes. She tied her hair up in a ponytail, and looked just like a high school student in the prime of her youth.Despite the disparity in their dressing, Rosalie

    “Bribe?” Sebastian sneered. “So, what did you guys do about it?”He was met with silence once again.Bam!Sebastian slammed the table, and stood up. “Firing all of you wouldn’t be able to compensate for the losses we’ve incurred this time!”Rosalie and Yvonne stood a short distance from the office. They heard a loud sound from inside, accompanied by the shouts of a man.They stopped in their tracks, and stood there in a daze.“Ladies, Mr. Carter is occupied at the moment. Why don’t you two take a seat? We’ll get you some coffee and snacks.”“No,” Yvonne said with a wave of her hand. “Go ahead and be busy. Don’t worry about us.”The secretary smiled and bowed, not daring to offend Yvonne. “Alright, Ms. Carter. Please let me know if you need any help.”After the secretary left, Yvonne held Rosalie’s arm and walked further in.Rosalie heard the yelling in the office, and her heart raced. It was clearly Sebastian’s voice, though she had never heard him so angry before.Even when

    Before Yvonne received a response, she barged in with Rosalie in tow.The moment Yvonne opened the door, an angry bellow sounded from inside the office. “Who let you in? Scram!”Sebastian was like a provoked beast breaking out from the earth, his deafening roar making the floor of the office shake.Yvonne stood where she was, dazed. Her eyes widened in shock as she instinctively tightened her grip on Rosalie’s arm.Rosalie was stunned too, her heart racing at the sound of Sebatian’s yelling.Although she was forcefully dragged into the room by Yvonne against her will, the rage on Sebastian’s face shocked her thoroughly. His anger ripped through the crowd like an earthquake, and no one was spared.Everyone’s gaze landed on the two—one of them was Ms. Carter, but the other was a woman they had never seen before.If Ms. Carter wasn’t spared from Sebastian’s scolding, the other woman was without a doubt doomed.Sebastian’s face froze; the fire in his eyes died the moment he saw Ros

    His gaze turned warm and tender the moment it landed on Rosalie.Even a car needed time to accelerate. Despite that, Sebastian’s attitude changed in an instant, with no buffer whatsoever in between.Everyone gasped.Who in the world was that lady? Why did Mr. Carter treat her so differently?He wasn’t even that gentle with his own sister. What exactly was going on with this man, who was blowing his top just a minute ago?When Sebastian told Yvonne to shut up, a tremor shook through Rosalie’s body.She was pregnant right now, and her body was naturally more sensitive. When Sebastian was yelling just now, she even instinctively covered her stomach with her hands, as if to protect her baby from shock.Sebastian saw Rosalie in a state of fright, and anxiously tried to explain himself. “I…”He was about to say further, when he belatedly realized that there were still many other people in the room. He turned around, and ordered coldly, “Get back to work.”Everyone walked out of Seba

    She knew Sebastian was bribing her. But since it was his credit card, she would succumb this time.“Rose,” Yvonne said meekly, “why don’t you stay here and chat with Seb? I’ll take a stroll downstairs. I’ll come back for you in a while.”“But I…”“Rose,” Yvonne whispered into her ear, “he looks quite anxious, and is probably worried that you’re angry at him. Just stay and chat with him, all right?”With that, Yvonne released Rosalie’s hand and grabbed Sebastian’s card before making a run for the door. She slammed the door shut, not giving Rosalie a chance to reject her.“You…”Rosalie was rendered speechless at the “bribe” that just took place under her nose.Sebastian strode forward, and stopped right in front of her.Left with no way out, Rosalie stood where she was and flashed him an awkward smile. “Rose, I’m sorry you had to see what happened earlier. They committed a huge mistake at work, and I had to tell them off. It wasn’t without reason.” He didn’t want Rosalie to

    "And what about you?" Theodore countered. "Rose, when will you finally see what kind of people are around you? Sebastian's two-faced, pretentious, and full of lies. Justin has blood on his hands, with numerous enemies. He's like a ticking time bomb, and both of them will only bring you disaster."Rosalie sneered. "And how much disaster have you brought me? Do you think the mental torment you've caused me isn't enough?"Theodore gave a bitter smile. "Rose, do you want me to die to make up for the harm I've caused you?""No, I just hope you won't bother me anymore. I have my own life now. Whether it's good or bad, it has nothing to do with you. Once upon a time, Grandma was the last connection between us, but now that she's gone, we have nothing left."She avoided Theodore's gaze. "You should go now."Theodore clenched his fists. "If this is what you want, then I understand. I'll stay away from you in the future and won't bother you again, because, as you said, we have nothing left."Wi

    Theodore was about to speak, but then he remembered he had important matters to discuss today and couldn't be sidetracked by Justin."Rose, I have something important to tell you. Let's talk privately.""If you have something to say, just say it," Rosalie replied. She knew he wanted Justin to leave, but she didn't mind if Justin knew what was going on.Theodore gave Justin a cold glance before continuing, "This matter concerns Grandma. I don't want anyone else around. It's something that should only be discussed between the two of us.""He's not an outsider," Rosalie replied without hesitation. "He can know about Grandma's matters too."Seeing the two of them about to argue, Justin immediately said, "I'll take Steve out for a walk and come back later."With that, Justin left.Rosalie quickly said, "Justin, you don't need to…""It's fine," he interrupted her. "I'll take him downstairs for a walk."With that, Justin left with Steve.Rosalie took a step back and said to Theodore, "Come in

    Aurora looked incredibly sorrowful, completely unlike someone who was acting. Theodore, for a moment, didn't know whether he should believe her or not.When Rosalie had first told him, he had only defended Aurora, completely ignoring Angie.Now, with Aurora telling him that it was Angie who killed Rebecca, Theodore couldn't be 100% certain that Aurora was not involved in this matter.It felt like a layer of mist had been added, blurring his vision and preventing him from seeing clearly.After a long while, Theodore released Aurora."Get better first," he said, turning to leave.Suddenly, he heard some movement behind him. Turning around, he saw Aurora stumbling toward the window in the ward. She forcefully pulled open the window and jumped straight down.Theodore's brows tightened, and with rocket-like speed, he rushed forward. He grabbed her from behind and pulled her back from the window ledge. "What are you doing?!""Theo, let me die! I don't want to live anymore. Just pretend I kil

    Theodore took out his phone and called Aurora, but she didn't answer the phone.He turned to the bodyguard and asked, "When you took Angie, was Aurora not at home?"The bodyguard nodded. "Yes, only Angie was at home. Aurora wasn't there."Theodore furrowed his brow. Was Angie telling the truth? Had Aurora fled in fear of being caught? He clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking.Could Aurora really be this kind of person? Had he misjudged her character all along?"Find her. I want to know where she went."A few hours later, Theodore's subordinates brought news of Aurora's whereabouts. She had booked a hotel room.Theodore led a group of people to her hotel room and knocked on the door forcefully, but there was no response.The staff member opened the door with a room key, and the group entered. Aurora was indeed in the room, and she was lying on the bed.Theodore strode over."Aurora!" he shouted, but as he got closer, he noticed that she was motionless. An empty pill bottle was on th

    Hearing the recording on the phone, Angie was horrified and nearly fainted."No, that's not how it is! It's not like that!" she cried in fear.Angie tried to get up from the floor, but the two men behind her pressed her down firmly, keeping her kneeling on the ground."It's not like that!" Angie shouted. "Aurora's framing me! She's setting me up!""She's framing you?" Theodore sneered. "Didn't you admit that you killed my grandmother?""I… It wasn't me!" Angie's agitation intensified. "Aurora is clearly using me as a scapegoat! She tricked me into saying those things! This is all fake!"Angie finally realized that Aurora had planned to make her the scapegoat from the very beginning, wanting to rid herself of any involvement. It was so sinister—recording conversations and twisting the facts. How despicable!"Fake?" Theodore seized her face with one hand, gripping it so tightly that her face nearly contorted. He gritted his teeth and harshly demanded, "Are you saying Aurora did this?""Y

    Aurora wept bitterly, her voice choked with sobs. "Theo, I'm sorry. I didn't know Angie could be so vicious. I thought she just had a foul mouth—I never imagined her to be this wicked!"Theodore's trembling hand picked up his phone and played the recording again and again, listening to the conversation between Angie and Aurora.Aurora quietly observed Theodore's expression.In the recording, she had edited out the later parts, leaving only her dialogue with Angie. As a result, it sounded as if Angie had acted entirely on her own, with no involvement from Aurora.Aurora understood that revealing this matter would eventually lead to suspicions falling on her. However, if she didn't use Angie as a scapegoat, they would both be exposed sooner or later. Acting preemptively, she decided to sacrifice Angie.Theodore turned to look at Aurora. After a long pause, he asked in a low voice, "When did you find out?"Aurora wiped the tears from her face. "A while ago, when Angie was arrested by the

    Aurora locked her bedroom door, then returned to her bed and began swiping on her phone. After confirming multiple times that everything was in order, she dialed Theodore's number."It's late. What's the matter?" Theodore asked."Theo, could you come pick me up? I have something very important to tell you.""Just tell me over the phone.""No, this is important. I have to tell you in person. Please come pick me up—I'm begging you! It's about Grandma."Theodore paused for a moment, then said, "Alright, I'm on my way."Less than an hour later, Theodore's car arrived at Aurora's apartment complex.Aurora had already changed clothes. When she received Theodore's call, she quietly slipped out of the house and hurried downstairs.Theodore was leaning against the car hood, waiting for her. When he saw her approach, he asked coldly, "What's so urgent this late at night?""Let's get in the car and leave here first," Aurora said as she opened the front passenger door and got in the car.Theodore

    "This bracelet is probably the one you're looking for," Justin said, his expression turning serious. "It must have been sent by the man who stole it."At that moment, Rosalie's phone rang. The screen displayed an unknown number, but she had already guessed who it might be. She answered and put the call on speaker."Do you like the bracelet? I sent it to you."She hadn't expected this person to suddenly reappear and even make contact with her child.Rosalie was furious. "I'm warning you. If you harm my child, I won't let you go!""Look at how worked up you are. If I had harmed him, would you still be able to see him? I was just returning something to you.""Then tell me—what's your purpose? What do you want?""Why are you so afraid? If I wanted to hurt you, you'd already be dead."Rosalie gritted her teeth. "You…""I have something to attend to. We'll talk later." With that, the caller hung up."Hello? Hello?" Rosalie immediately tried to call back, but the number was already disconnect

    Rosalie glanced at the screen. "Since when did I start writing novels? How come I didn't know about it?""Stop lying! This is obviously your work! Otherwise, why would our names appear in the book?" Angie roared.Rosalie remained indifferent. "That, I wouldn't know." "You don't know? Rosalie, you clearly—""Angie…" Aurora grabbed her arm.Angie suppressed her anger and placed the phone on the table."Rosalie," Aurora said, "I didn't even know you could write.""This book isn't mine. Believe it or not," Rosalie said. At that moment, the book was updated with a new chapter. The content still focused on Angie and Aurora. Angie read the chapter on the spot. At the end of it, the author left a note. [I'll upload a few more chapters today. I'm working hard on them; updates will come soon.]The two of them looked up at Rosalie. She must have scheduled the upload in advance.Rosalie stood up. "I don't have time to waste on this nonsense. You two called me here just because of some novel? H
