Chapter 357

Author: Night Revelations
After hearing Rosalie out, Sydney fell silent.

Her first thought was that Theodore was in trouble.

As it turned out, Rosalie stayed up the entire night reading through the documents to identify the problem with Regent Co. not for his sake at all. Quite the opposite—she did it for Sebastian.

Sydney suddenly laughed, the sound laced with helplessness and irony.

Theodore wasn’t the only one who misunderstood the situation. She did, too. She really thought that Rosalie did it for her son, but she never expected…

Rosalie clearly had her priorities in place, more so than Sydney did in her younger days. The girl might look weak and vulnerable, but she had a clear mind and knew exactly what she needed to do.

Meanwhile, Rosalie didn’t understand why Sydney was laughing. “Mom? What’s the matter?”

“Nothing,” Sydney said, looking at Rosalie. “So Geoffrey Carter threatened you with his son, and you accepted it because you care about his son very soon?”

“Seb’s a good friend of mine,” Rosali

    “I saw her. She was in a bad mood,” Rosalie said.“I know she’s in a bad mood,” Wesley said darkly. “Do you know why?”“I don’t.”Rosalie realized that even when Sydney scolded Wesley and told him to scram, he never complained. He had probably gotten used to it.He then asked, “Did you ask her about it?”“I did, but she didn’t want to tell me.”Wesley sighed. “It’s all my fault. If what happened in the past didn’t happen, she’d probably be a lot happier now.”“Dad, sometimes, when the other party doesn’t want to be bothered, you shouldn’t bother her. That would make her much happier,” Rosalie said calmly, though her tone carried a hint of sarcasm.These men were bent on doing whatever they pleased, and hurt those who cared about them without regard for anyone. When they eventually realized their mistakes, they turned around and acted all affectionate and devoted.How could a single word of apology make up for the terrible hurt they had caused?Wesley fell silent. After a whil

    On the other end, Theodore realized that Rosalie had rejected his call.Anger rose up in his chest as he called her again. However, an electronic voice replied to him. “The number you’ve dialed is unavailable at the moment. Please try again later.”She was probably still busy.Theodore put his phone aside, and waited patiently. After around ten minutes, he picked his phone up and called her again.“Sorry, the number you’ve dialed is unavailable at the moment…”He heard the same electronic voice again.His face tensed up, and a bad feeling washing over him. He clicked open his WhatsApp, and typed Rosalie a text. [Rose, you can tell me whatever’s on your mind. Don’t keep it to yourself. I’ll help you solve whatever problem you have. We’re family.]He re-read his text over and over again before finally sending it. However, he soon saw a red question mark right next to the text.His mind buzzed, as if something had hit his head, registering the sudden shock. He looked stunned.

    Theodore shut his eyes, and tried to control the fire burning in his heart.“Stop laughing,” he hissed.His chest was almost bursting with anger.Sydney coughed dryly, and said, “Fine, I’ll stop laughing. I have no idea why Rose blocked you. Why don’t I bring her along to our next meeting? I did ask Rose to come with me when I meet you. That’s a good chance for you to ask her.”“In that case…” Theodore said, “let’s meet tonight. Ask Rose along, too.”“I’ll call her later and ask if she’s free,” Sydney promised. “She is free,” Theodore said. “She doesn’t need to work now, and she has lots of time on her hands. If she says she’s not free, it must be an excuse. Don’t let her have her way.”The arrogance in Theodore’s voice made Sydney furrow her brows.“No wonder she blocked you.”“What?” Theodore furrowed his brows as well. “Do you know why she did it?”Sydney sighed. “Son, it’s because sometimes…you’re annoying.”Theodore was stunned.It was the first time in his entire lif

    "You want me to be more proactive? Are you saying I should keep her here to prevent her from going elsewhere?""Isn't it better to keep her here? She's been staying with the Spencers for so many years. There’s no reason for her to go so far away," Theodore said. When Rosalie went to college, he didn't let her go somewhere far away. He admitted that he was a bit selfish for not wanting her to be too far from him, like a helicopter parent who wanted to keep his children close.But if she really wanted to go to another place for college, he wouldn't have stopped her. Fortunately, she listened to him and stayed in Ashwick City for college.Sydney raised her eyebrow, her eyes glinting slyly. "I think I heard Rose mention that she wants to travel.""Where does she want to go?" Theodore frowned, looking a bit uneasy."I don't know. She just mentioned it casually, and I didn't ask for details. It's normal for her to want to travel. There’s not much to ask.""Well, you should have at le

    Sebastian booked a private room.Before coming, he had called Rosalie, offering to pick her up. She refused and insisted on driving herself, so he didn't push further.He arrived at the private room early, and waited for Rosalie and Yvonne to bring Lily over. He wasn't sure if who Yvonne chose was reliable or not. He was worried they might be exposed.Sebastian still had some time. He took out his phone, and called Yvonne.At the club, Yvonne was sprawled on a couch, sound asleep, when her phone’s piercing ringtone woke her up. Irritated, she felt for her phone and answered the call grumpily. "Who is it?""Yvonne, where are you right now?" Hearing Sebastian’s voice, Yvonne jolted awake and scrambled off the couch. "Is that you, Seb?""You’re asking me?" Sebastian's voice was cold. "Did you forget what I asked you to do last night? Did you find Lily? Hurry up and get over here!"Boom! Yvonne was thunderstruck.Sebastian frowned at Yvonne’s silence. "You didn't mess things up

    In the private room of the restaurant…Sebastian checked the time repeatedly. He was beginning to regret entrusting such an important task to the unreliable Yvonne. She must have run into some problem.Just then, the door to the private room opened, and Rosalie walked in. "Seb."Sebastian jumped up immediately. "Rose, you’re early."The usually composed CEO of Skycrest Enterprise was now like a boy who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar in front of Rosalie.Rosalie smiled. "I didn't have much to do, so I came early. You’re early too.""Yeah," Sebastian replied awkwardly. He hadn't expected Rosalie to arrive so early, and it derailed his plans completely.Rosalie walked over, and noticed his pale face. "Seb, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?""N-No," Sebastian said, stammering from panic. "I'm fine. Please, sit down. Would you like something to drink?"Rosalie shook her head. "No, I'm fine. Let's just wait for a bit. Is Yvonne coming over with Lily now?""Not yet.

    "Why isn’t Yvonne here yet? Could something have happened to her? Call her and ask," Rosalie said—not out of impatience, but concern."Okay, I'll call her. Wait here for a moment." Sebastian took his phone and walked out.Rosalie watched him leave, puzzled. Why did Sebastian need to go outside to make a call?However, she didn't think too much about it. She leaned back in her chair, gently touching her belly, and smiled. "Sweetie, once we settle Mr. Carter's affairs, Mommy will take you to a beautiful place. Then, it'll be just you and me."-Sebastian called Yvonne again.She only answered after more than ten seconds. "Seb."Sebastian was a bit annoyed. "Where are you now? Tell me the truth. Did you find the right person or not?""I'm already here!" He heard Yvonne's voice near him.Sebastian turned around, and saw Yvonne leading a woman toward them hurriedly.Lily followed behind Yvonne, panting and nearly too tired to stand straight. She had met this weird customer at t

    What was the problem with her being called Lily? Couldn’t she use that name?Rosalie extended her hand, still smiling kindly. "Hello, I'm Rosalie Young. Nice to meet you."Lily blankly extended her hand to shake Rosalie's. "Hello, Miss Young."The two were so polite to each other, even Yvonne couldn't stand watching anymore. What was with this situation? Her brother was even better at creating awkwardness than she was!"Great! Everyone knows each other now. Let's hurry to the private room. I'm starving! Have we ordered yet?" she said."We have, but since I didn't know when you'd arrive, the dishes haven't been served yet," Rosalie replied."Then I'll go ask the waiter to serve the food." Yvonne dashed to the waiter as if she was fleeing. She said a few words to him before hurrying into the private room, avoiding her brother's gaze the entire time.The three of them stood there in awkward silence, not knowing what to say.Rosalie noticed that Lily and Sebastian seemed a bit un

    After that camping trip, the relationship between Theodore and Rosalie seemed to have reached a new level of understanding.Though they were no longer husband and wife, they interacted like close family.Theodore found a good burial site to lay Justin to rest.Even though only a few fragments of Justin's bones remained, he still deserved a proper burial in a place with good geomancy.The burial was kept simple. There was no formal funeral. Only Rosalie and Theodore brought Justin's remains to the cemetery.Rosalie held the small box in her arms, reluctant to part with it. Theodore gently placed his arm around her shoulders. "Rose, let him rest in peace."Tears welled in Rosalie's eyes as she gazed at Theodore. She opened the box, revealing the few remaining fragments of Justin's bones, and gently caressed them. "Justin, I will come visit you again."Theodore glanced at the bones inside the box and frowned slightly. Something seemed off. There were supposed to be seven bone fragments

    "That's right, you're not silly—you're just a little dummy," Theodore said teasingly. He didn't actually think Rosalie was silly. He was only joking with her.Rosalie knew that as well, so she wasn't upset. She turned and lay on her side to face him. "Theo, we got along so well when we were kids, and you always took care of me. I liked you ever since I was little. Later, when I was able to marry you, I was really happy.""I was happy to marry you, too. But I was the foolish one. Rose, you're not a little dummy—I'm the big fool here."If he hadn't been so foolish, things wouldn't have turned out the way they did. When it came to love, he was utterly clueless.Even a genius with a high IQ could be completely ignorant in certain areas. It often took countless detours before finally coming to a realization.Love, in particular, was the easiest thing to get wrong—especially when viewed from one's perspective."But we're still family, and we have a child together. The bond between us will

    The sun gradually set, casting an orange glow over the tent and the grass. The family of three sat around the campfire, enjoying the joy of camping and admiring the beauty and tranquility of nature.Rosalie and Theodore had arrived in the morning, and they had spent the entire day together. They chatted, took walks, and explored the surrounding area.Neither of them had taken out their phones to pass the time, yet the hours flew by, and before they knew it, night had fallen.The three of them sat by the fire and enjoyed barbecued meat together. By the time they finished eating, the fire had begun to die down. The sky was now pitch black.Rosalie lay on the mat spread out on the grass, staring up at the sky. The twinkling stars above shimmered like glowing diamonds.In the quiet of the night, the occasional crackling sound came from the extinguished embers of the campfire.It was a soothing sound, one that didn't disturb the beauty of the night.Rosalie formed a circle with her index fi

    "Alright." Theodore nodded. "I'll give the child a name, but this is an important matter—I need to think it through carefully."Since this was Rosalie's wish, he was naturally willing to fulfill it.Rosalie smiled and said, "Alright, let me know when you've decided on a name.""I will. I'll tell you as soon as I decide." Theodore raised his hand and gently stroked Rosalie's head.Steve stumbled as he ran toward his parents and threw himself into Rosalie's arms. His movement was a bit forceful, but Rosalie still managed to catch him in time.Seeing this, Theodore immediately took Steve from Rosalie's embrace.He said seriously, "Steve, Mommy is pregnant now. You can't throw yourself at her like that—you might hurt her."Steve's dark, round eyes blinked as he listened to Theodore's words. Realizing he had done something wrong, he looked at his mother with a guilty expression."It's okay. I'm fine," Rosalie quickly reassured him. "Come here, let Mommy hold you." Rosalie pulled Steve back

    A few days later, Theodore took Rosalie and Steve on a camping trip. They found a quiet spot, and bodyguards were stationed around for security.The scenery was breathtaking. In the distance, layers of mountains stacked upon each other, while lush greenery spread in all directions. Just a few dozen feet ahead, a clear stream flowed gently, creating a serene and natural landscape."Theo, let's set up the tent first," Rosalie said.They had decided to camp here for the night, as it was a perfect spot for stargazing."Alright, I'll have the bodyguards set it up.""Theo," Rosalie walked forward and said, "let's set it up together. No need to ask the bodyguards.""But it will be tiring. I can do it myself—you should sit and rest," Theodore said, not wanting her to exert herself."It's fine. I can handle it. Let's set up the tent together," Rosalie insisted.Theodore nodded. "Alright, we'll do it together."He bent down, opened the bag, and took out the tent. The two of them then started ass

    Late at night, Rosalie woke up from yet another nightmare. This time, however, she did not scream. Instead, her eyes snapped open, and her breathing was rapid.Theodore immediately rushed to her bedside. "Rose, did you have another nightmare?"She hadn't had one in several days.Rosalie turned on the lamp, surprised to see Theodore by her bed. "Theo, why didn't you go back to your room to sleep?""I was worried about you, so… Rose, I just want to stay with you. Did you have another nightmare?""Theo, I...""What is it, Rose? Do you have something to tell me?"Rosalie shook her head. "Repeating those words over and over again doesn't really change anything. I just...""Theo." She gripped his hand tightly. "You must protect yourself well. Get more bodyguards.""Alright, I promise you. I will protect myself, protect the baby, and protect you. I will never let you get hurt again." He pulled Rosalie into his arms."By the way, Rose, I have something to tell you. Aurora, Angie, and Cynthia

    Rosalie wondered if the baby would look more like her or Justin.Looking up at the azure blue sky and the white clouds floating in it, she could almost see Justin looking and smiling back at her.Steve raised his hand and caressed her face. She looked at him and smiled, and caressed his head. "Stevie, Mommy will always love you."She kissed his forehead gently, and he hugged her gleefully.Just then, a voice sounded from behind. "What are you two talking about?"Rosalie turned around to see Theodore walking toward them. He was wearing a suit, looking smart, a tender look on his face as he stood next to the mother-and-son pair."Nothing much, just getting some sun. We should head in soon," Rosalie said as she stood up with Steve in her arms.Theodore took over Steve with one hand and pulled Rosalie up with another."Let's head in together."He held Rosalie's hand and didn't let go. She didn't shake his hand off and nodded, letting him hold her hand.They walked into the villa.

    Theodore brought Rosalie back to her room and she sat by the windows, exhausted."Rose, lie on the bed and rest for a while. I'll call you when it's time for lunch.""Theo, you don't look too good."His face was very pale."I'm fine. Perhaps it's because I didn't sleep well the past two days.""You should get some rest too. Don't just keep staying by my side."During this period, she would see Theodore by her bedside whenever she woke up from a bad dream. She gathered he hadn't been getting enough rest during this period."I'm fine. I'll wait for you to fall asleep before leaving."He helped RoslIe onto the bed and covered her with the sheets. Rosalie shut her eyes and exhaled out loud."Oh yes, Rose. There's one more thing.""What is it?" Rosalie asked."We found a girl called Nana.""Nana?" Rosalie sat up on the bed. "You saw her?"Theodore nodded. "When we found her in the villa, she kept saying that you're her mother and Sebastian is her father.""Sebastian adopted he

    She and Justin's baby must have really wanted to survive, which was why it tried so hard to stay in her body.For all she knew, it was Justin staying by her side in another way.Rosalie caressed her stomach while covering her lips as she sobbed brokenly. This time, she didn't cry merely due to sorrow, but because she saw a ray of light amidst the hopelessness, and Justin's shadow within the light.Theodore gently patted her through the sheets. "Rose, you still have me and Steve. We'll stay by your side. I'll also take care of the baby in your stomach. I won't let him grow up without a father."Rosalie looked at Theodore, tears streaming down her face. She held his hand tight, words unspoken in her heart that she didn't know how to express.After being under observation in the hospital for two days, the doctors made sure that she was physically fine and Theodore took Rosalie home.Rosalie was ready to see Steve.She had been emotionally unstable and didn't dare to see Steve not b
