Sydney smiled politely.

"I wouldn't say 'pressured', but I do feel a little nervous."

Sydney had the experience of having dinner with leaders of major companies and even of the city.

Christopher somehow felt different from them all.

She could tell at one glance what kind of people the rest of them were, and even see through their preferences and such.

However, she couldn't figure Christopher Jackson out. Each time she looked into his eyes, she would feel slightly nervous, as though he was capable of melting her into a puddle anytime.

Having lived through half her life, Sydney wasn't a naive young lady who thought that Christopher had feelings for her. Yet, in the depths of her heart, she could sense something wrong with the look in his eyes.

"Why do you feel nervous? Do you think I'll be fierce to you, or raise some unreasonable request?" Christopher asked.

He spoke calmly and politely, with a graceful poise befitting of a true gentleman.

Sydney said, "Mr. Jackson, I naturall

She doesn’t want the families to be intertwined but she having lunch with the man she knows is related to Sebastian while she treats Wesley and Theo like crap? She hates Wesley and has no concern for the way she treats him but she has kid gloves with the Carters?

She’s worse than Sebastian and his father at this point. The only good characters are Wesley and Theo. They’re the only ones written to have remorse about their actions. Not even rose dwelled to much on Theo almost dying. There’s to much going on and nI genuinely felt bad for Sydney but no I don’t

    Christopher nodded. "Go ahead."Sydney walked out of the private room with her phone in hand, and received the call. She said with slight frustration, "What is it again?""You left your necklace behind at my place. Where are you? I'll send it to you." Geoffrey's tender voice sounded through the phone.Sydney's grip tightened over her phone. After a long pause, she finally said, "What exactly must I do for you to let me go?"Geoffrey had been threatening her as of late.When he previously forced her into bed with him, he had filmed the entire process.Sydney was initially resistant, but as time went by, she became numb to it and eventually gave up resisting him.Geoffrey cut out the part of the video where she didn't resist him, and just that clip alone made it seem as though Sydney went along with it willingly. Then, he threatened to show the Spencers the video.Geoffrey was a madman who wasn't afraid of sacrificing himself for the sake of getting what he wanted.Sydney, on th

    The lunch went on pretty smoothly, despite Sydney's nerves at the start.Christopher, on the other hand, remained rather open-minded.Sydney slowly got infected by his mood; they started chatting about many things, ranging from finance-related issues to personal preferences. They even shared anecdotes about interesting and strange things they encountered.The two of them got along pretty well.Many times during their conversation, Sydney was tickled pink by Christopher.Each time Sydney laughed, Christopher would look at her with a tender and deep look in his eyes. Yet, he always managed to compose himself right before Sydney noticed it.They continued chatting long after their meal was over.The clock struck two in the afternoon before they realized it.Sydney glanced at her watch. "Mr. Jackson, we've been here for so long. I'm sorry for holding you back from your appointments."Christopher smiled. "Not at all. Am I holding you back from anything?"Sydney smiled politely. "O

    Sydney's mind went blank.Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at the man's face right before her.His eyes were shut, as if he was enjoying the moment.Sydney's body stiffened, and she couldn't move an inch. She didn't even have the energy to push him away.Somehow, she found her entire body soft and limp. Suddenly, she felt a strong force push her against the wall.Christopher started kissing her harder.His large hands pressed against her shoulders, and slowly roamed downwards. He wrapped an arm around her waist, holding his other arm against her back while slowly inching downward.Sydney's knees went weak, and she almost lost her balance. She was pinned to the wall, allowing him to drag her along for the ride.He hugged her tight in his arms, stopping her from collapsing on the floor.As the kiss deepened to the point of almost losing control, Sydney's mind buzzed as she felt all energy being sucked out of her. She felt as though she was no longer herself.Just then, s

    "I'm sorry, Mr. Jackson. Perhaps I wasn't thinking right. I just thought that…"She didn't know what to say. She just felt as though she were in a fantasy."There's no need to apologize. I should be the one doing that instead," Christopher said with a sigh. "I thought there was something between us, but I might have made a mistake. I was a fool.""No," Sydney exclaimed.A glint flashed past the depths of Christopher's eyes, but a look of despondence overtook him. "No? Do you mean that we…"Sydney spoke too soon, realizing that she might have fallen into his trap. He was a scheming man, after all."Mr. Jackson, I meant that it's very normal for people to overthink things. It has nothing to do with you being foolish."Her instincts warned her against getting too close to this man."Mr. Jackson, I have something to attend to and need to go. See you."Sydney then turned to leave."Is that goodbye?" Christopher asked, looking at her retreating figure. "Or do you really mean that w

    "Really? Quick, call her," Rebecca urged gladly.Sydney's brows furrowed as she said, "Theo, are you really going to call Rose right now? She's very busy."The solemn look on his mother's face made it seem as though the sky would fall on their heads if he really called Rosalie.Instead of saying something, Theodore let Rebecca go and pulled out his phone from his pocket. He left the scene, and walked toward the door of the villa.Sydney hurried out after him and saw him scrolling through his contacts.Sydney said, "Theo, are you really going to call Rose?"If he called her out of the blue, all her efforts would go down the drain.Things would go back to what they were in the past, with the two of them entangled with each other and in pain."Are you afraid of me calling Rose?" Theo said. "No, that's not what I meant," Sydney explained. "I just don't want to see you hurting.""It's none of your business. It's my own business whether I'm hurting or not. I'm an adult, not a chil

    The moment Aurora walked in, everyone's gaze landed on her.Shock registered on Sydney's face when she saw the familiar-looking face. Wesley looked as shocked as Sydney was.However, they both knew that Aurora merely looked like Rosalie, and wasn't really Rosalie.Rebecca was taking a nap on the couch.Theodore walked over, bent forward, and said, "Grandma, Rose is here."The mention of Rosalie's nickname made Rebecca immediately look up, only to see an achingly familiar face.Rebecca was stunned for a moment, then a look of doubt flashed past her eyes. She could sense that something was off.Everyone quieted down.Did Rebecca suddenly become alert? "Grandma, didn't you ask to see Rose? Look, Rose is here," Theodore spoke up again."Oh, Rose. You're all grown up," Rebecca said as she stretched a hand out. "Let me look at you."Aurora felt a little nervous as she glanced at Theodore. Theodore nodded back at her, and shot her a reassuring look.Aurora mustered up the courage

    Aurora stood up. "Mr. Spencer, your grandmother has gone to rest.""I'll make a move too," Theodore said as he approached her. "Thank you so much for today. Apologies if I held you back from your plans."Aurora said with a smile, "I didn't have much on today, anyway. I'm glad I was able to help you."Theodore said, "Let me send you back."Aurora didn't want to trouble him any further, but she also wanted to spend time alone with him, so she nodded. "Alright, thank you."The two of them were about to leave when a voice stopped them."Theo. Ms. Payne."Sydney approached them.Theodore stopped in his tracks, and turned around. Sydney stopped right in front of them and shot them a smile, her gaze landing on Aurora."Hello, Ms. Payne. It's my first time meeting you today."Aurora greeted politely, "Hello, Mrs. Harper. You're so beautiful and young."She meant her words, having been blown away by Sydney's beauty the moment she saw her. Sydney looked to be only slightly over 30 yea

    A black car drove steadily on the road.Theodore sat on the driver's seat, his hands firmly on the steering wheel as he kept his eyes on the road ahead.Aurora sat in the front passenger seat, her seat belt buckled in. Her hands gripped uneasily over the belt as her heart raced.She felt very nervous being in the same car as Theodore.It was perhaps nerves from liking the man that made her so tense. She was worried over even the slightest movement that might make her look awkward and embarrass herself before him.The silence in the air started feeling awkward. Aurora finally spoke up, breaking the silence."Your mother is really beautiful and your father is handsome, too. They look like a match made in heaven."Theodore said indifferently, "They just look like it."Aurora found Theodore's words strange.Did his parents not have a good relationship, too? Why did she get strange vibes from his entire family?She opened her mouth, wanting to ask further, but Theodore beat her to

    "Theo, what are you doing here?" Wesley asked. "I was worried about you, so I came to check on you," Theodore said. "You two are…"Wasn't that Yerick? Why was he being so intimate with his dad?"Theo, this is Yerick Zeller," Wesley explained. "I know him. He's Rose's friend.""Is that so? You're Rose's friend?" Wesley was surprised to hear that. "I didn't even know that.""I didn't know that at the start, either. I only knew about it when I came here. What a fate we share!" Yerick said."Dad, how did you two meet?" Theodore asked, his brows still furrowed."At the seaside. I stepped out of the car for some fresh air. This child thought I was going to take my life, so he tried to counsel me. That's how we got to know each other."Theodore realized something. "Dad, were you referring to that day when…""Alright," Wesley said, cutting him off. "It was nothing. I just stepped out for some fresh air at that time, so you don't need to worry. Whatever it was, I got to know Yerry a

    The doctor told them that while Rebecca was fine last night, they found a blood clot in her artery this morning. Although they tried their best to save her, they eventually failed.Everyone in the ward was crying and blaming themselves.Outside the ward, Aurora and Angie were heaving a sigh of relief as they went to a secluded corner."Well done, Angie! We're both safe now," Aurora said. Angie agreed. "Yeah, I finally feel relieved. It's great that the old woman is now dead!" Angie stretched her arms out and yawned. "Don't forget what you promised me! When you become Theo's wife, we'll share him."Angie couldn't wait to be intimate with Theodore. Aurora patted the back of Angie's hand. "But of course! We're sisters. I won't let the good stuff go to outsiders. Even without you, he'll have other women elsewhere. The two of us will have Theo eating out of our hands. We'll share in each other's success and failure.""Yes, indeed," Angie said happily, foolish naivety in her eye

    "Justin, why are you up?" Rosalie wanted to bring breakfast to him in his room.Justin saw Theodore in the living room, and immediately realized what was going on. "I'm fine. I feel much better," he said. Rosalie helped him onto a chair and sat him down. "You need a lot of rest right now. Have some food and take your medicine later."Justin nodded. "Got it.""Theo got a doctor last night to treat you. You really should thank him," she added.Justin glanced at Theodore and said, "Thanks.""Don't mention it. I didn't do it for you. I did it for Rose," Theodore said bluntly; he was very honest.Justin gave him a faint smile. Theodore was a bastard, but at least he was honest."Alright now, let's have breakfast," Rosalie said. She didn't want things to get too awkward. The three of them enjoyed breakfast in silence. Rosalie gave her sunny-side-up to Justin. "Justin, eat more." He needed nutrients to recuperate.Theodore handed his sunny-side-up to Rosalie.Rosalie passed

    Dawn broke over the city.Rosalie slowly opened her eyes, feeling a little woozy. She turned around to glance at the clock, and saw that it was six and a half in the morning.Suddenly, she recalled something and immediately sat up on the bed. She rubbed her eyes, threw off the sheets, and got out of bed.When she arrived at the living room, she saw her baby lying on the couch, his two hands waving in the air. She hurriedly approached him. "Darling."Just then, Theodore walked out of the kitchen. "Rose, you're awake."Rosalie looked up to see Theodore donning an apron. "Did…did you not leave the entire night?""The baby refused to fall asleep so I stayed on. He slept a little when the sky started turning bright. Seems like he's awake again now.""Why didn't you wake me up?" She didn't expect him to stay through the night."You were so sound asleep, why would I wake you up? You're really tired, too. Go sleep a while longer. I'll call you up when breakfast is ready. Don't worry

    Rosalie hurriedly handed the baby to Theodore.She was at her wits' end. What exactly was going on?Perhaps this was because they were truly father and son. Sometimes, there were no explanations for things that were simply amazing and mysterious.Theodore felt energized looking at the baby. Rosalie, on the other hand, was exhausted."Rose, why don't I stay here and coax the baby to sleep? You can go to bed first.""How can I make you do that? You need to rest early.""But Steve cries each time I put him down. If he keeps crying, it'll disturb you and Justin, or even our neighbors.""Well…" Rosalie didn't know what to do."How about this," Theodore suggested, "I'll give you Steve. If he doesn't cry, I'll leave. If he cries, then do as I say. I'll stay to coax him to sleep and I'll leave once he's asleep, okay?"Rosalie pondered for a moment before nodding. "Okay, then."She stretched her arms out to receive the baby.The moment Theodore put the baby in Rosalie's arms, the bab

    Rosalie stood at the door, watching Theodore coaxing Steve. She paused in her steps.It didn't take long for Theodore to calm Steve down. When he saw Steve stop crying, a gentle smile appeared on his face."I'm leaving now. I won't disturb you. You and your mom should go to sleep early."He carefully placed Steve on the bed, but as soon as he let go, Steve started crying again.Theodore quickly picked him up again and soothed him. "What's wrong, baby?"After coaxing Steve for a while, Steve stopped crying and began giggling. "Steve, be a good boy and sleep, okay?"At that moment, Rosalie walked forward. "Theo."Hearing her voice, Theodore immediately came back to his senses and realized that he had overstepped his boundaries."Sorry, I rushed in as soon as I heard him cry. Here, I'll give him back to you."He wasn't sure why, but when he heard Steve cry, he felt sad. He had an urge to comfort Steve, almost as if it were a responsibility.Theodore stepped forward and handed Steve to Ros

    Rosalie's heart trembled. She rushed forward and covered Theodore's mouth with her hand, her eyes filled with intense panic. "Don't say such things."He had a son now, but he was speaking of an end to his lineage. She also didn't want Theodore to die a terrible death.Theodore grabbed her wrist and suddenly pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips.Rosalie's eyes widened, and her mind felt like it exploded in that instant. In a panic, she stretched out both hands to push him away, trying to resist—but he wouldn't budge.Rosalie dared not struggle or shout too hard, fearing that Justin might hear. Justin would certainly come out to stop them. He was injured and running a fever; his body couldn't handle such an ordeal. He definitely wouldn't be a match for Theodore. Rosalie had no choice but to helplessly close her eyes, allowing him to kiss her.After a long while, Theodore finally let her go. He cupped the back of her head with one hand and held her waist with the

    Theodore walked in, and Rosalie passed by him directly. She found a thermometer and went back into the room to take Justin's temperature. The thermometer read 104 degrees."Justin, you have a fever. We need to go to the hospital."Rosalie tried to help him sit up, but Justin grabbed her wrist. "I can't go to the hospital. I'll be fine after one night of rest.""No, your temperature is too high, and you're injured. Your wound is definitely inflamed.""I'm really fine, don't worry. Do you have any fever medicine here?"Seeing Rosalie's anxious expression, Theodore closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger within him. He walked over and said, "I can call a doctor to treat him."Rosalie turned to him and asked, "Will they talk about it?""I guarantee they won't. I know people who are professionals in secret treatments. They will not reveal a thing."Rosalie thought for a moment, then looked at Justin. "Can we call the doctor? Please? Otherwise, your life will be at risk

    After Theodore hung up the phone, he walked to the liquor cabinet and opened a bottle of whiskey, pouring it into a glass.Just as he was about to take a sip, he suddenly thought of his stomach and put the glass aside. He had promised Rosalie many times that he would stop drinking. If he drank now, he would feel guilty.He walked over to the window, gazing blankly at the night sky. The city was especially bright, shimmering with light, as if the stars were hovering on earth.Why was Justin at Rosalie's place at this hour? Was he really sick? Or was it just an excuse?Furthermore, what was Justin's sudden arrival in Blencalgo about? With his status, he could only bring trouble and danger to Rosalie.Theodore became more and more troubled as he thought about it.He walked to the wardrobe, opened it, and took out his coat.-Rosalie was lying in bed, unable to sleep. She gently held Steve and stared at his face, thinking, 'Steve, if your grandmother wakes up, I will tell Theodore that you
