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
Seeing Rosalie covered in blood, even though it wasn't her own, Theodore was shocked. He immediately carried her in his arms and prepared to leave."What are you doing? I want to stay here! I have to wait for him!""Rose, the surgery will take a long time. Let me take you to wash up first. Once you're clean and changed into fresh clothes, you can wait here for him. When he wakes up and sees you then, he'll feel at ease, okay?"Rosalie bit her lip and nodded. "Alright."Theodore found a VIP room for Rosalie. The room was unoccupied. He had someone bring over a set of clean clothes for Rosalie.The person delivering the clothes was still on their way.Meanwhile, Rosalie continued to cry.Theodore held Rosalie in front of the sink, his arms wrapped around her from behind. He turned on the faucet and used a towel to wipe her hands and face."Be good and stay still. Let's clean off the blood. It'll be gone soon.""Theo, there's so much blood… He lost so much blood. Has he lost all of it?" R
Rosalie felt light-headed. "Theo, my head hurts so much. I really want to sleep."Theodore's eyes were filled with helplessness and sorrow. He knew that she must be exhausted, both physically and emotionally.He gently stroked her face. "It's alright. You can sleep. I'll take care of everything else.""Theo, he can't die! He's my savior! If it weren't for him, I would be dead. It was so terrifying when those men captured me. They wanted to hurt me. He risked his life to save me. He even took a bullet for me. Please don't let him die!" Rosalie said weakly, her eyes full of tears as she pleaded with him."Alright," Theodore held her tightly, whispering into her ear. "I won't let him die."Rosalie slowly closed her eyes.Theodore sighed and kissed her forehead. "Rose, what should I do with you?"She was so heartbroken over another man, but he had to go along with her and promise her that man wouldn't die.Theodore knew he had no right to ask Rosalie for anything. He and Rosalie were alrea
Theodore's clothes were completely soaked.Later, he simply took off all his clothes and washed himself alongside Rosalie.Afterward, he dried Rosalie's hair and body with a towel, and then carried her back to the ward. He placed her gently on the bed and covered her with the blanket.Rosalie lay on the bed, her body wrapped in the soft sheets. The moonlight filtered through the window and illuminated her delicate, sculpted face. Her skin was as white as snow and exuded a natural glow, as though every inch of her was a masterpiece carefully crafted by an artist. Her long, curled lashes were clearly defined. Her lips were full and alluring. Slightly upturned, it radiated charm.The night was quiet, and the atmosphere in the room was peaceful and warm. The faint light accentuated the warm tones of the room, creating a dreamy, almost celestial ambiance.Theodore gazed at Rosalie, his gaze full of deep affection and obsession. His eyes shone like stars, flickering with intense emotion. Ev
She parted her lips slightly, exhaling trembling breaths.Theodore's breath, buried in the crook of her neck, became increasingly hot and heavy.Suddenly, a faint voice came from her lips. "Theo, has Vincent's surgery been completed?"Theodore's body stiffened. Just as his passion was reaching its peak, he heard Rosalie utter another man's name. He felt a pang of guilt and pain.He stared into Rosalie's closed eyes, noticing she was still asleep—or perhaps half-asleep—not fully conscious of what was happening.Yet, even in her half-dreaming state, she still thought of that man. Even while asleep, she was concerned for him.Theodore suddenly felt like a scoundrel. How could he take advantage of her like this at such a vulnerable moment?She was already suffering enough, yet he still hurt her.It was so hard. How many men could control themselves when faced with their beloved woman lying naked in front of them?Theodore closed his eyes in pain, a tear slipping down his cheek and falling
She quickly looked down at her body, and noticed that she was fully dressed. Her clothes were neat and tidy. Theodore was also fully clothed."Last night… What happened last night?" she asked."You fainted, so I carried you here to rest. You were in a deep sleep," Theodore explained, concerned that she might be scared.Rosalie looked at her clean clothes, and asked, "Did you change my clothes?"Theodore silently looked at her, thinking about how close he had come to doing something disgusting to her the night before. He felt regret and guilt. He didn't even dare to meet her gaze. Looking away, he said, "I had a female nurse change your clothes."Rosalie let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like it was just her imagination; she had felt someone kissing her from head to toe. Maybe it was just a dream."Were you with me all night?" Rosalie asked."Yes," Theodore responded softly. "I stayed here because I was worried about you."Rosalie found it odd and was about to ask another question, b
Rosalie was frustrated.Theodore lowered his eyes, looking somewhat dejected. "Fine, go on. I'm listening."He wanted to hear what she had to say. This man clearly had ill intentions."He asked me to stay with him for a week, but it was just to cook for him and clean up. Nothing else. He didn't harm me. He was just lonely and wanted someone to keep him company."Rosalie turned to look at Justin through the glass and spoke softly. "He had a sister, but she died. That's why he treated me like a sister. It's not like you think."Upon hearing Rosalie's explanation, Theodore still felt that this man wasn't a good person, but hearing that he hadn't hurt Rosalie, he let out a sigh of relief."What are you going to do once he wakes up?" Theodore asked."Of course, I'll take care of him and help him get better. After all, he saved my life. I owe it to him.""He saved your life, so you're worried about him. What about me, Rosalie?" Theodore grasped her arm and couldn't help but say, "When you we
