Due to the fight, Theodore and Sebastian were taken to a nearby police station.The two of them were separately interrogated and investigated. After a few hours, the police finally decided to release them.Because neither tried to evade responsibility and didn't cause any grievous harm or damage, the police handled the issue with great discretion.They issued Theodore and Sebastian a warning, demanding they adhere to the country's laws and ensure they wouldn't cause another argument. Then, the two had to sign their names.After everything was over, the police called for their family to take them home.As the situation wasn't so severe as to require bail, Rosalie and Aurora could take the two of them away after they gave their signatures.Night had fallen. The gate of the police station was a stately yet mysterious divider, separating chaos and hustle and bustle from the world.The street lamp shone weakly and solitarily, looking like a lone star in the night sky.The four of
Aurora was deeply concerned about Theodore's current condition.He continued lying on the floor silently.Aurora wanted to help him up, but she couldn't no matter how hard she tried.This house was the Spencers' property in Melrine. It was usually empty, and only the two of them stayed there. Theodore didn't want anyone to disturb him when he came, so he didn't call for any servants. The huge house felt cold and empty. Only Aurora's frightened voice bounced off the cold, hard walls."Mr. Spencer, please pull yourself together. I'm begging you, please. Don't scare me!"Aurora could see the hopelessness in his eyes, spreading across his entire being and suffocating him. It was like a door leading to endless darkness. No one how hard she tried, she couldn't bring him out of this world immersed in hopelessness.Theodore stared blankly ahead as he remained silent.Aurora leaped into his arms. "I'm begging you, please don't be like this! Rosalie isn't the only woman in this world. I
Aurora's kisses landed on Theodore's face again and again, but he gave her no response. He simply laid there unmovingly like a puppet.Aurora started tearing his suit away from him like a mad woman."Theodore Spencer, you're not a man! You're not!"She did all she could to try to tempt him.But even after all their clothes were in disarray and after leaving her marks on his hard chest, he expressed no emotions and gave no response whatsoever.The scene looked very much like she was forcing herself on him.Aurora sat on him, staring at him with tears streaming down her face."Is Rosalie Young the only woman you'll respond to in this entire world?" she cried. Theodore finally shifted his gaze to Aurora. He lifted a hand, gently wiped the tears from her face, and finally spoke. "What's the point?""Theo!" Aurora grabbed his hand and put it to her cheeks. "I'm willing, I really am! Take me, won't you? I'm begging you… Even….even if you throw me aside like a tool afterward. As l
The woman he loved was so cruel to him, while the woman he didn't love was willing to give him her whole heart. Reality always didn't match up to expectations.People always get what they don't want and never what they really want.Perhaps it's true what they always say—the grass is always greener on the other side. It is greener precisely because it's not on your side.Many are never content with what they have.Theodore got up on his feet with Aurora in his arms, and slowly walked up the stairs.When he entered a bedroom, he threw Aurora on the bed and removed his shirt. He lay on top of her and pressed her arms down the sides of her head."Aurora Payne, I want you."Men couldn't help but take pity on weak and vulnerable women. Aurora was so weak, lowly, and humble in her love. Theodore's heart wasn't made of steel. Facing such a woman, he couldn't deny he was moved. He couldn't remain hard-hearted against her, especially when his beloved woman had been so cruel to him.
"Seb, I don't want to love him anymore, I really don't. But why…why am I still in so much pain? Why!?" Rosalie wept. Sebastian gritted his teeth, fire burning in his eyes.Theodore mistreated Rosalie so much, but she still loved him and was sobbing so hard over him.Though Sebastian resented Rosalie a little, he hated Theodore even more.It was all that man's fault!What right did he have to own Rosalie's heart the whole time? He didn't have any right to it at all!Rosalie was truly a stupid woman.Despite his resentment toward her, his heart ached for her."Seb, let's get a divorce, shall we? Let's divorce." Rosalie finally spoke her mind, unable to hold herself back anymore.Sebastian was thunderstruck. "What did you say?" "Seb," Rosalie said, leaving his embrace and cupping his face. "Our marriage was a facade to begin with. Let's divorce. Going on with it is unfair to you. We're not actual husband and wife. I'm sorry, Seb. I truly am.""No, I'm not getting a divorce!"
Sebastian still cared very much for her. How could he bear to add to her pain when she was already in such sorrow?She had just given birth two months ago, and her health wasn't in great condition. He specifically asked the doctor about it and was told they could only be intimate at least three months later.He could wait. He didn't want to hurt her physically.Eventually, he just held Rosalie in his arms and hugged her.Rosalie cried for a long time in his arms until she was exhausted and fell asleep. After a while, when Sebastian saw she was deep in sleep, he released her and got out of bed to prepare a hot towel in the washroom. He then returned to her and gently wiped her face with the towel.He did it so softly and gently, afraid that he might wake her up.His heart ached as he looked at her face, which was all red and swollen from crying. Her brows were still furrowed tight despite being asleep, as if she were in a nightmare. Even her breathing was ragged. 'Theodore Spe
"I'm also doing this for the good of all three of you. You and Rose are already married. You two should lead your married life in peace. It's impossible between Theo and Rose. Even if they reconcile by force, they'll only be miserable. A love triangle will always spell doom for all three parties," Sydney explained. "You want your son to give up on Rose completely so he won't be in pain anymore?" Sebastian asked. "Yes, you can think of it that way," Sydney said. "What happens tomorrow will determine whether this love triangle can be over for good."Sydney also told Sebastian what he should do the next day, and how to deal with Theodore.Sebastian hung up, distraught.He was initially doubtful until he saw Theodore in the flesh today, with a woman in tow.The heavens were on his side. They had allowed him to know about it beforehand. He would deliberately let Theodore overhear him, making the latter assume the baby was his and Rosalie's.With Theodore's hopes dashed, Theodore wo
Theodore gently stroked her long hair.A familiar scene flashed past his mind.Rosalie spent many mornings lying coyly in his arms just like this. He gently caressed her cheeks and long hair, and kissed her all over.Aurora lay in his arms like a lazy kitten enjoying the caress of its owner.She smiled; her delicate hands couldn't help but rub against his hard chest. She looked up and asked, "Theo, are you alright?"Theodore shook his head very honestly. He didn't lie and say that he was fine just to reassure her.Aurora gently caressed the wounds on his body, her heart breaking. "Do your wounds still hurt?"Theodore shook his head. "They don't. Don't worry.""Theodore, let's go back."She didn't want Theodore to stay here and continue wallowing in sorrow. They would return and stay as far away from this place as possible."Don't you want to travel around this country? We've only just arrived," Theodore said."It's alright. We can go traveling elsewhere."She instinctively
