“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

    Sebastian stared at the woman before him, feeling his heart softening.He was still a little angry at her this morning and, if he were being honest, he had flared up at his subordinates because of his bad mood.But now, he realized that all the anger in him had dissipated. He wasn’t even angry at the lost project.Conversely, he felt content.There were a few levels to that feeling of content.Each level was like an empty bag that, once filled, would move on to the next level. The next level was a larger bag.He felt like the first bag was already full, and that he had progressed to the next level.With regard to Rosalie, he didn’t ask for much. His bar was very low to start with, and he would feel content with just a smile or a tender word from her.The knowledge that she was concerned for him instantly filled the empty bag on the first level to the brim.The bag on the second level was opened, and it was empty. Strangely, at the same instant when the bag on the first level w

    They way his eyes looked right now…“Sebastian,” Rosalie said, looking at him with crystal clear eyes. “We’re good friends. You helped me when I was at my lowest, and I’m just returning the favor. I don’t mean anything else, so please don’t overthink things.”Sebastian felt as though someone splashed an entire bucket of cold water over his head. He didn’t know if Rosalie was deliberately reminding him not to overthink things, or if it was just a casual remark on her part.Whatever it was, Rosalie had only one objective in mind—which was to stop him from overthinking. They were just friends, and she was just showing concern for a friend.A friend…Sebastian’s mind was in a mess.At the same time, a sharp knife was slicing through his heart.He knew they were just friends—he knew that all along. That was why he had been so cautious. However, it didn’t stop his heart from breaking when Rosalie pointed it out so incisively and matter-of-factly.Rosalie was still feeling uneasy, and

    “I do have someone I fancy,” Sebastian said as he looked at her.Rosalie asked doubtfully, “Is that so? Do you really have someone you fancy? Who is she?”“She…is very close to me…”Rosalie instinctively wanted to take a step back, but her body froze on the spot as the corners of her lips twitched.Sebastian suddenly took a step closer to her. Rosalie instinctively stepped back.“Rose, can you do me a favor?” he asked. “What is it?” Rosalie asked.“Can you teach me how to court a lady?”“Me, teach you?” Rosalie said in disbelief. “I think Yvonne would be a better person to ask. I’m such a dull person, and I don’t understand men very well. I don’t understand women, either.”“I’m sure you do. The woman I fancy is quite similar to you in character. I’m afraid Yvonne wouldn’t understand. She’s so rambunctious, she wouldn’t know a thing about quieter and more reserved ladies.”“Is that so?” Rosalie asked. “Who is this lady you fancy?”“She… I met her at a banquet. She’s very res

    Rosalie pushed Theodore's hand away. "In that case, I must know what happened."Since Theodore got his hands on the so-called evidence and laid it right before her, there was no reason for her not to watch it. A few minutes wouldn't make a difference.Rosalie took the initiative to play the video.She sat quietly before the laptop, her eyes fixed on the video playing on the screen.The originally calm expression on her face slowly grew solemn, then turned into shock and disbelief.She couldn't believe that the man she once trusted so much could be capable of something so cruel.In the video, Sebastian broke into Theodore's house with a bunch of armed men.After they entered, they scoured the place for surveillance cameras and damaged whatever they could find.When Theodore and Aurora came back, they intercepted them and ruthlessly threatened them with their lives. They pointed their guns at Theodore, the vicious look in their eyes filled with ruthless cruelty.Sebastian pointe

    He handed the thumb drive to Rosalie. "All his actions were captured and stored in this thumb drive. Rosalie Young, I'm giving you one chance to watch the entire thing. If you still think Sebastian didn't want to kill me after watching it and want to beg me to let him go, I'll agree to it!"Rosalie stared at the thumb drive in Theodore's hand, filled with doubt.She was curious about the footage inside. Since there was evidence, there was no harm in checking it out.Rosalie wiped her tears away. "Okay, I'll watch it. I want to know what happened, too."It was Theodore's words against Sebastian's at that time. She didn't know whose words to believe.Theodore grabbed Rosalie's wrist. "Come with me."He brought Rosalie to somewhere quiet and had someone bring his laptop over.He then inserted the thumb drive into the laptop and clicked open the video files inside.Rosalie sat before the laptop and saw Theodore navigate through the files and click on a video.However, he didn't

    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

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
