Theodore heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Rosalie alive.He thought of how he came across dead bodies so many times in his painful search that made him swing between hope and hopelessness.In the process of searching for Rosalie, he managed to find many lost people.Now, he had finally managed to find her—and she was still alive.He didn't know the kind of torment she had been through. Whatever it was, his heart was racked with worry for her."Theo, why are you here?" Rosalie looked at him in disbelief. "What are you doing here?"She completely didn't expect to see Theodore here.Vincent's eyes narrowed as he turned to ask Rosalie, "Isn't this man the one we saw on TV, your ex-husband?"Rosalie nodded. "Yes, he's my ex-husband."Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief, knowing it was Theodore and not someone else."Rose, quick! Come over!"Theodore anxiously reached a hand out to her."Theo, what are you doing here?""To save you, of course! You went missing, and I went mad try
"Theo, he's my savior. Don't hurt him! I won't let any of you hurt him!""What did you say?" Theodore muttered in disbelief. "He…he's your savior?""Yes. He saved me when I was in danger! Hurting him is akin to hurting me!"Theodore didn't know what was going on. Things were not what he imagined it to be.He wasn't sure if Rosalie was bewitched by Vincent and therefore not thinking clearly.However, he could make out the strangle marks on Rosalie's neck. It was surely the result of a violent outburst. Was it by the hands of this man?If things were really as Rosalie had said, then why was she still here? She didn't go home and was uncontactable. What kind of saving did this man do?"Rose, I got it. Give me the gun. I won't hurt him."Rosalie was so agitated that if he were to continue firing at Vincent, it would surely cause her to react even more agitatedly."Really?" Rosalie asked.Theodore nodded. "Yes, give me the gun now."He was very worried that she might misfire and
"You…"Theodore was about to step forward when Rosalie shoved him away hard. "He's right, every word of his. Theodore Spencer, I was captured by a bunch of hooligans. When they were about to humiliate me and kill me, Vincent rescued me. Where were you then? Why didn't you come running to me to save me then? Oh, I know! You were holding hands with Aurora, walking down the streets, licking her ice cream, and savoring the taste of her saliva! You might even have had a roll in the hay with her! How would you even have the time to save me?"Theodore remained silent."Listen up, Theodore Spencer. I don't need you to save me. I'm perfectly fine right now. You're just kicking up a fuss over nothing!""Kicking up a fuss over nothing? Rosalie Young, I went to such great lengths to find you and was worried about you being in danger. I'm even putting my life at risk, and you're calling it kicking up a fuss over nothing?!"He couldn't stand the pain of having his effort and heartache being s
"It's fine. At least he's here to save you and you'll be fine."Vincent no longer feared death, having lived life so dangerously with the risk of dying hanging over his head constantly. Dying today or tomorrow made no difference to him.In fact, dying early meant quicker relief for him.Rosalie tried her best to help Vincent stand up and said to Theodore, "Theo, can you…"Before Rosalie could complete her sentence, another bunch of men rushed in."Rose, are you alright? Quick, come to me! I'm here to save you!"Sebastian saw Rosalie standing with Vincent and noticed the blood on her. He was frightened out of his wits and immediately fired a few shots at Vincent. "No!"Rosalie yelled hysterically as she saw Vincent collapse on the floor, shot by Sebastian's gun."No, no!"Rosalie knelt on the floor and cried in agony, "Vincent, Justin…Justin, don't die! Please, don't die!""Sebastian, you mad dog!" Theodore held him back. "What are you doing?""I'm saving Rose. She's in dan
Rosalie couldn't care less right now. Even if the doctor were to call the police, all she wanted to do now was to keep Vincent alive. If he were to die right here, right now, all would be lost.Vincent lifted a hand and gently caressed Rosalie's face, wiping her tears away."Don't cry. We don't know each other very well, anyway. It's fine even if I die.""No, I won't allow you to die! I won't! Vincent, hold on. I beg you, hold on a while longer.""If I die, I can go find my sister. Don't be sad. Seems like both of them love you very much. But… I still hope that you can be happy. Don't get tied down just because the other party loves you. Rose, don't trust men so easily.""Justin, open your eyes! Open your eyes!"Rosalie tried so hard to pry his eyes open.She gritted her teeth and carried Vincent from the ground with all her might."I'll bring you to the hospital. You won't die. I won't let you die! Youngie won't let you die, either!"Theodore snapped back to reality and immed
"Yes, sir." A few of his subordinates stepped forward in a bid to receive Vincent.Theodore immediately said, "Rose, leave Vincent to me. I know a hospital that's safe for him where the doctors won't call the police. I'll handle his case with secrecy."With that, Theodore shot his subordinate a look.An outrageous scene unfolded.Sebastian and Theodore's men started fighting over who would save Vincent."Sebastian Carter, don't cause trouble. Saving him is of utmost priority, and I have what it takes to do it.""Theodore Spencer, don't I have what it takes too? You underestimate me. I can send him to a safe hospital with my people, too. Rose, hand Vincent over to me.""Rose, don't trust Sebastian. He's cunning and will cause harm to Vincent. Hand Vincent over to me and I'll save him for sure.""Rose, hand him over to me. Don't trust Theodore, he's not worthy of your trust. Did you forget all that he did to you previously?"Theodore and Sebastian started arguing with each other
Where did it all go wrong? Was it because he hadn't been sincere enough?Sebastian slumped, as if he had lost all his strength and hope. His fists were clenched tightly, nails digging into his flesh.No, things couldn't be this way. Absolutely not!He and Rosalie had finally reached this point, and then this Vincent guy suddenly appeared. Where did this man come from? He had disrupted his plans! Sebastian wouldn't allow it.-Darkness enveloped the entire car. The bulletproof vehicle moved steadily through the shadows. The car was jet black, resembling a silent and fearless beast, its steel body gleaming with a cold, metallic light.Inside, Rosalie held Vincent tightly in her arms, her eyes filled with deep concern.The car was filled with blood-soaked bandages.Outside the car window, the cityscape under the night sky was hazy. The tall buildings were faintly visible in the dark, like a dreamy, elusive vision.Streetlights cast a faint glow, creating fragmented, mysterious shadows.
Although Theodore had also shot at Vincent, Rosalie hadn't seen that kind of viciousness in his eyes. Moreover, when Sebastian made his move, Theodore had stopped him.If Theodore truly wanted Vincent dead, he could have easily let Sebastian handle it without interference. Considering all of this, Rosalie chose Theodore.Seeing Rosalie remain silent, Theodore pressed on, "Rose, you haven't answered my question. If you don't trust me, why did you choose me?""Please stop asking, alright? I just picked someone at random. I didn't think too much about it."She couldn't speak badly of Sebastian in front of Theodore. Besides, this was just her feelings, not necessarily the truth.Theodore took a deep breath. "Fine, I won't ask. But Rose, if he really dies, what are you going to do?""Stop saying that. He won't die. He absolutely won't die!"Theodore said nothing. Vincent was severely wounded, and Theodore didn't hold out much hope. The man was likely to die, but judging from Rosalie's react
