What was the relationship between her and Theodore? Why were they so intimate?Theodore's arm was around Aurora's waist as he said, "I didn't expect to run into my ex-wife along with her husband and child here."Hearing Theodore's words, Rosalie felt a terrible heartache. What did he mean by "her child"?She was both sad and angry. Theodore didn't even want his own child, and was trying to give him to Sebastian.Holding Steve tightly, Sebastian said, "Yes, it's quite a coincidence that we ran into you. I'm curious about Miss Payne's relationship with you.""She's my girlfriend." Theodore smiled elegantly and composedly, showing no trace of the shock he had felt earlier.Aurora's heart trembled. Although she knew Theodore was lying and putting on an act, hearing him speak this way still made her heart stir. She felt that she was growing closer to him, which delighted her.The term "girlfriend" struck Rosalie like sharp arrows piercing her heart. Did Theodore actually have a girlf
She deliberately said "two months" sarcastically. After all, when he was away on a business trip for two months, he was in truth with Cynthia—something Rosalie had only learned later.Whenever she got angry at Theodore, she couldn't help but think of how he had hurt her. Each instance remained vivid in her mind."I will," Theodore replied. "I plan to stay here for a month. Anyhow, we'll be together forever, never to part."Theodore knew Rosalie was mocking him, so he returned the favor. He had repaid what he owed Rosalie during that kidnapping incident. When Rosalie chose Sebastian over him, he had already died once. He had used his life to repay Rosalie, and she had avenged him for all the hurt he had foolishly inflicted on her.Aurora felt a surge of joy. She didn't know if Theodore meant what he said, but a month was enough time for her to enjoy herself. She had initially thought he would return right after seeing his ex-wife.Sebastian asked, "Mr. Spencer, have you made a rese
Rosalie and Theodore were facing each other, and they could see each other's faces with just a glance. Aurora had her back to her.Theodore also happened to look up and glance at Rosalie.Rosalie's heart trembled, and she quickly averted her gaze. She lowered her head to cut the food on her plate and stuffed it into her mouth.The food was delicious, but it tasted bitter.Why did he have to treat her that way? She couldn't believe Theodore got a new girlfriend. He said he loved her deeply, but he still went and got together with another woman.Rosalie knew she shouldn't be angry. After all, she had married Sebastian.Yet, she didn't marry Sebastian out of love, while Theodore and Aurora were definitely in love.She would never trust men ever again. Their love always seemed so cheap.Rosalie reminded herself not to blame Theodore because they were already divorced. It was normal for Theodore to be with another woman now; but she couldn't help but feel heartbroken, angry, and jeal
This piece was one Rpsalie and Theodore used to love listening to. Now, even this song was being given to another woman.'How nice. Theo, you're truly cruel. You dedicated a song to Cynthia, and now you're dedicating one to Aurora,' Rosalie thought. It seemed like she wasn't that special after all.They both wanted to move on, yet at this moment, they were fighting. Neither wanted to concede, and both wanted to make the other suffer. In the end, it was they who were hurting.It wasn't possible to part without hard feelings. The deeper the love, the more painful it was when things ended.From across the table, Sebastian could sense the turmoil churning within Rosalie. Even though she was trying her best to restrain herself and not show anything, Sebastian still felt uncomfortable.If she really didn't care about Theodore, she wouldn't be trying so hard to control her emotions. It was precisely because she cared that she had emotions.After the song ended, Rosalie's hands, which sh
"Sebastian, how long do you think you can continue to pretend in front of her? Sooner or later, you'll reveal your true colors. Do you think that when the time comes…""What true colors?" Sebastian interrupted him. "Mr. Spencer, you're too naive. Rose and I are already husband and wife. Even if I'm not a good person, what does it matter to her? As long as I treat her well, that's enough. Unlike you, I can betray the whole world, but I will never betray her. You did the exact opposite. What right do you have to lecture me?"Sebastian's words hit Theodore like a blow to the head. He didn't know how to counter Sebastian.Perhaps in Rosalie's heart, it didn't matter what kind of person Sebastian was. Maybe she knew exactly what kind of person Sebastian was, but just didn't care.Seeing Theodore's silence, Sebastian knew he had the upper hand. He stepped forward and said, "Even if you tell Rose the truth about that incident, it won't matter. She won't believe you. Even if she did, I h
Theodore finally understood why Rosalie chose Sebastian. She was carrying Sebastian's child; how could she allow the father of her child to come to harm?They had long fallen for each other, but he was still caught up in his own feelings, loving her to the point of risking his life.Rosalie had long given her heart to another man. From the very beginning, she had given her all to someone else.Theodore used nearly all his strength to force a calm smile. "That's right, I didn't die. Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm very much alive. How about we make a bet? I'm sure I won't die before you."Sebastian smirked. "Theodore, I won't take that bet because I'll live well. I want to grow old with Rose, watch our child grow up, and then hold our grandchild.""That's exactly what I wanted to say to you." Theodore stepped forward, the two of them standing very close together. The air was thick with tension."Sebastian, you can have Rosalie. I don't want her anyway since I already have another
Rosalie desperately suppressed the pain she was feeling. "So, that's how you two met?""Mm-hmm." Aurora nodded. "After that, I often met him, and we ended up together over time."Thinking of the incident where Theodore was injured, Rosalie felt as if her heart had been torn in two.Another woman had saved Theodore at a critical moment, so it wasn't strange they were together.She didn't expect that Aurora would be his lifesaver.Rosalie should be grateful to Aurora for saving his life. Otherwise, Theodore might have died back then.She remembered seeing a pool of blood on the ground but not Theodore. She had panicked, not knowing he had been rescued."How close are you and Theodore now?" Rosalie had told herself not to ask that question, but she couldn't help herself.Thinking of how Rosalie had caused Theodore pain and despair, Aurora didn't want to strip him of his dignity. She sat straight, looking very confident, and said, "We're in a romantic relationship. How close do y
She and Sebastian had never slept with each other.He was a gentleman, and never forced himself on her. He had always treated her with great respect. Rosalie felt guilty toward Sebastian partly because of this. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Things between you two are over, and it's not like you two will ever be intimate again."Aurora couldn't stop herself from saying what she said to one-up Rosalie, as if trying to tell her that Theodore would be hers from now on.Rosalie patted her baby in her arms, silent.Aurora said, "Ms. Young, I just hope you won't hurt him again."Rosalie furrowed her brows. "I'm not trying to hurt him. He's the one who came running to Melrine."He came here for a holiday with his girlfriend and stopped by this restaurant by coincidence, but how could that be possible?Even if he were here for a holiday, Melrine was a huge country. Why did it have to be here of all places?Rosalie believed there were many coincidences in this world, b
