Chapter 398

Author: Night Revelations
The Carter Residence.

Geoffrey was in his precious collection room and taking a photo out of a hidden compartment. The photo was quite old. On it was a young woman, beautiful and smiling brightly.

Geoffrey sighed. He stroked the woman's face in the photo gently, murmuring to himself, “Sydney, why did you have to go back? What’s so good about that man?”

Outside the door, the butler's voice could be heard. “Sir, there was a call from Madam. She said she won’t be coming back tonight.”

Geoffrey frowned. He turned around and said, “Tell her that Sebastian’s getting married. She should come back quickly to prepare. After our son’s wedding, she can go wherever she wants.”

“Understood,” Phillip said, and then another voice came from outside.

“Is my father inside?”

“Mr. Sebastian, you’re back. Mr. Geoffrey is inside. Do you need anything?”

Sebastian knocked on the door. “Dad, I need to talk to you.”

Geoffrey put the photo back nicely, locked the hidden compartment, and opened the doo

    Sebastian's face stiffened, and he shifted his gaze away. "I don't."He didn’t dare to admit it, because he was afraid it would implicate Rosalie. When he was in elementary school, he was very close to a girl. Both of them had been children, and they innocently expressed their liking for each other. However, his father found out about it. Soon, the girl was sent away, and he never saw her again. His father didn’t allow him to like anyone. Everything had to be arranged by him. From that moment, Sebastian never dared to admit to his father that he liked someone. He was afraid his father would act again."No? If that's the case, then you don't need to marry Rosalie. Since you don't like her, there's no need for me to match you two up. I don’t want to force you. You can go now."Geoffrey seemed impatient as he brushed past Sebastian.The more Sebastian thought about it, the more something felt off. He followed Geoffrey. "What exactly do you mean? This has nothing to do with Rose.

    Half an hour later, Sebastian left the Carter Residence. Geoffrey sat alone in the living room, looking around at the empty space. Not far away, Phillip stood watch.It had always been like this—a master and his servant. Whether it was his son, daughter, or wife, none of them came home regularly. He truly was a good husband and father; so good that they all chose not to return.Just as he was about to leave, a middle-aged man with an imposing presence and a commanding aura walked in."Hello, Brother-in-law."Geoffrey looked up, and was surprised to see him. "What brings you here?""I came to see you." The man walked forward, adjusted his coat, and sat beside Geoffrey casually, as if this were his home too. "And to talk about my sister."His sister was Xyla Jackson, Geoffrey’s wife. The man, Christopher, was Xyla’s second older brother. He was a few years younger than Geoffrey.Geoffrey remained calm. "Are you here to criticize?" Christopher said, "Not exactly. I'm just worried

    Geoffrey was interested in money. He seemed to be greedier than other businessmen for wealth.Christopher took out a small booklet from his pocket, and placed it on the table."What's this?" Geoffrey asked."This is a planner. Inside is a place where you and Xyla can go to mend your relationship." Christopher pointed to the cover. "It is a secluded place where once you and Xyla enter, you will be cut off from the outside world. You’ll live together there for half a month."Geoffrey chuckled. "That's absurd. You want me and her to stay there? We'll end up arguing within a day.""You'll understand once you look carefully. It's a good place. Many couples who have been there return with improved relationships."Geoffrey never believed in such things, but out of respect for Christopher, he picked up the brochure and read it.Indeed, the place was special. There was no electricity, internet, nor signal, but the scenery was excellent. Once inside, they only had each other and must coop

    On the way, Sydney sensed that Rosalie seemed a bit off. "What's wrong? From the look on your face, it looks like the sky is falling.""I’m fine." Rosalie smiled a small smile. "I'm just a bit nervous."Sydney certainly didn't care about Sebastian's affairs. Even if Rosalie mentioned it, it wouldn't matter. Rosalie might even get scolded for it."There's nothing to be nervous about. Unless you said something to him to make him so drunk last night. He seemed pitiful."Rosalie's heart trembled. She turned to ask, "You said he got drunk last night?"Sydney nodded. "Yes. He came to my place late last night, drank who knows how much, stumbled around, talking nonsense. He said that you hate him, and you don't want him anymore. He kept mentioning you, and even tried calling you. But he was so drunk he couldn't even hold his phone steady, and then he realized you had blocked him, which completely shattered him."Hearing Sydney say these things, Rosalie couldn't believe it. "Mom, did he r

    "Mom, please stop saying these things. He doesn't love me!" Rosalie's emotions were getting out of control. "If he loved me, he wouldn't have divorced me for Cynthia, and he wouldn't have repeatedly chosen Cynthia over me and caused me so much pain! He doesn’t love me at all!""Because Theo is a fool!" Sydney said. "He wasn’t loved as a child, so he doesn't know what love is. He himself is confused! The purpose of meeting him today is so that you two can meet and talk it out, and for you to ask him whom he truly loves!""Did you arrange this meeting just so we can talk?" Rosalie took a few steps back. "No, I can't meet him. I've already said we're done with each other. I can't...""You stop right there!" Sydney grabbed her arm. "Rosalie, why are you so cowardly? What's wrong with meeting him?""He doesn't love me! Meeting him would just be humiliating! He divorced me for Cynthia. No matter what, I can't possibly salvage the relationship!"Though Rosalie's heart was in pain, and th

    Rosalie returned once again to the house where she and Theodore used to live.This was their former marital home, decorated according to her preferences. They had lived happily here for a year. The house remained unchanged, but the people who used to live there weren’t the same anymore.As they entered the hall, Sydney noticed Wesley sitting on the sofa. "What are you doing here?"Every time Wesley saw Sydney, he felt excited. He stood up, straightened out his suit, and stood straight. Even though he was middle-aged, he still took care of his appearance meticulously.Without exaggeration, if Wesley were to appear in a drama as a matured and handsome president, just standing there could ignite a frenzy among older women."Sydney, why are you here too?" Wesley asked.Sydney frowned, feeling a sense of foreboding. Just then, Theodore walked out. "I asked them to come."He appeared before everyone, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, a simple and classic attire that never w

    "These are all Rosalie’s favorite dishes. Aren't there any that I like?" Sydney seemed a bit jealous.Theodore looked up, and said, "I don't know what you like to eat, and you've never told me. We rarely eat together." He looked at his mother without much expression on his face.Sydney stiffened.Theodore continued helping Rosalie to the food.Rosalie turned and stared at Theodore's serious side profile, feeling a wave of bitterness in her heart. Did he have a split personality? Why else would he hurt her on one moment, and then be gentle on the next? "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom." Rosalie put down her cutlery, stood up, and left the dining room."Theo, why are you so close to your ex-wife?" Sydney asked, her words carrying a hidden meaning.He gave a lame excuse. "She has helped me before, hasn't she? What's wrong with me serving her some food? It's just common courtesy." "She helped you?" Sydney asked. "Are you referring to the night she stayed up with me, lookin

    For as long as he could remember, she had never said that she didn’t love him. Neither did she say that she loved him.This was in fact a mystery to him. It was his own guess that Rosalie didn’t love him and wasn’t happy.Rosalie’s heart ached. She looked up at him and stared at him silently, her gaze sorrowful. Then, with a slight smirk, she asked, “Don’t you find yourself hilarious for asking me that question now? What exactly do you want?”“I want to know what you feel about me. I want the truth.” Theodore rested his palms on both sides of her face, circling her in his arms as he drew her. He was much taller than she was, and had to bend his neck down low to be near her. “So, tell me now. What exactly do you feel about me? I want the truth.”Theodore didn’t understand Rosalie, and she didn’t understand him either.They didn’t understand each other. There seemed to be a barrier that urgently needed to be broken, but there was a fear in doing so. Keeping things like this woul

    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

    Time flew by, and three months later, Rosalie was fully recovered and back at work.Her colleagues welcomed her back with a bash.Everything seemed to have returned to normal.To keep Jake company, Rosalie would go back to Theodore's house every day after work. She was practically living there.Rosalie and Jake's relationship had improved over time, and they were looking more and more like they were truly mother and son.Everything was going well.At night, the four of them sat around the dining table and chatted happily with each other.After dinner, Rosalie and Theodore sat in the living room chatting. She suddenly noticed a book on the table. It looked so familiar that it caught her eye.It was the book she had written. 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
