Chapter 9

Author: Night Revelations
"Is anyone else inside?"

Rosalie was very worried that Cynthia was there. If they bumped into each other, it would be awkward.

Caleb frowned. "Who do you think would be inside?"

Rosalie pursed her lips. "Never mind."

Caleb gave her a cold glance and walked in. As soon as Rosalie entered, a strong smell of alcohol hit her.

Theodore was lying on a windowsill not far away. He had one leg hanging over the edge, almost falling out, and there were all sorts of bottles and broken glasses on the floor!

"How did you get all the way there?!" Caleb exclaimed.

He rushed over and pulled Throdore's dangling leg off the windowsill, then pushed his friend into the room, fearing he would fall and get hurt.

Caleb turned his head and looked at Rosalie, who was in a daze.

"Why are you just standing there? Come over here and help me!"

"Oh...!"

Rosalie put down her bag and ran over immediately.

Theodore reeked of alcohol, and half his shirt buttons were undone. The completely drunk man was frowning deeply and breathing heavily. With his pale face, he truly resembled an unrestrained drunkard.

Even so, his disheveled appearance did not diminish his perfect image in the slightest, but rather, added a touch of decadent wildness.

Rosalie reached out and touched his forehead, which seemed a bit hot. She was unsure if it was from drinking too much or because he had a fever.

Why did he get drunk? Was it because of Cynthia? That woman had already returned, right? Why the need to do this?

"Why didn't you stop him? You actually let him drink so much..." Rosalie asked with a frown.

"What? You're blaming me?" Caleb pointed at himself. "Are you serious? You're his wife! Your husband was the one who didn't go home and got wasted outside. Why didn't you stop him?"

"I..." Rosalie trailed off.

After a long while, she finally spoke, "He was with Cynthia. He was probably happy, so how could I disturb him?"

"What?! Are you crazy?! Are you saying your husband was out with another woman, and you didn't care? Are you a saintess or something?!" Caleb roared.

"We're getting a divorce." Rosalie smiled bitterly, suppressing the pain in her heart. "So, I can't say anything about whoever he's with."

"D-Divorce?" Caleb was stunned. "No wonder Theodore drank until he was in this state! It's all because of you!"

"Because of me? You're wrong, he-"

Caleb interrupted her, "Shut up! How has Theo wronged you? How could you abandon him? Since marrying you, he hasn't flirted with anyone else or done anything improper. No matter what, he always thinks of you first.

"Even when he's drinking with his buddies, he pushes away any woman who attempts to come near him. He keeps an eye on the time, wanting to go back early to be with you, afraid you'll be worried at home!

"He has distanced himself from everyone for you! Can't you see how good he is to you? Even if you don't, we aren't blind! You want to divorce such a man?! Are you crazy?!"

Caleb took a deep breath and placed his hands on his hips. "Go on, tell me! What kind of devil out there has managed to seduce you and make you heartless enough to leave your husband? I'll beat him up and kill him!"

Rosalie was surprised at Caleb's indignant attitude.

"I remember when I married him, you made a bet with a few of your friends. You said Theo would flirt around and grow tired of me in less than three months. You lost five million and were forced to sing folk songs naked. You've been holding a grudge against me for that,” she reminded him.

Caleb fell silent. He scratched his head and glanced around awkwardly before saying, "Don't mention that again. Also, I was wearing underwear!"

"I know. You were wearing a pair of red briefs," Rosalie added. "I watched the video. You were quite sassy."

"Video?! Where did you see the video? Who took it? Tell me!"

Filled with a surge of explosive anger, a wide-eyed Caleb stepped forward and gripped Rosalie’s shoulders, causing her to wince as he squeezed her hard.

"Let go of me."

"Tell me quickly! Who the hell recorded the video?"

As the noisy voices buzzed in his ears, Theodore slowly opened his eyes. Despite his blurry vision, he was able to make out a familiar figure. He immediately launched himself off the windowsill and rushed forward.

Pulling Rosalie behind him, he grabbed Caleb's collar and threw a punch!

They are both nuts. They don’t communicate well with each other. This is going to be a complete train wreck. The baby and the mother are the ones to be hurt while the husband is playing hide and seek. Guess this is a comedy ....

    Bam!Theodore threw Caleb to the ground and started punching him continuously, causing a visible trickle of blood to ooze from the corner of Caleb's mouth!"Theodore, are you nuts?!" Caleb yelled, not fighting back against his good friend and only defending himself."Caleb, how dare you touch her!" Theodore roared.With his bloodshot eyes, he resembled a rabid beast! Even Caleb was taken aback by his appearance."Theo, you've got it all wrong!"Bam!Theodore threw another punch! Caleb couldn't take it anymore."Theodore Spencer, are you blind?! Do you even know what she did to you?"Caleb flipped over and wrestled with Theodore. The fight was fierce, as both men were strong, well-built, and trained regularly. The sober Caleb made sure to pull his punches when he struck, but Theo was drunk and didn't hold back at all.Rosalie was frantic as she watched the two men rolling towards the broken glass on the ground."Stop it!" she yelled.Rosalie rushed over and attempted to pull

    So, Theodore had only intervened because he thought Caleb was bullying Cynthia?Rosalie was indeed naive, ridiculously so!Despite her efforts to hold back her tears, she couldn’t stop some from falling. Wiping them away, she smiled faintly."It's okay. We were wrong from the beginning. This incident doesn't make any difference."At her words, the atmosphere suddenly plunged into a terrifying stalemate.Caleb felt like he had nowhere to hide. He glanced around and even considered jumping out of the window. It was too awkward!After a long silence, Rosalie spoke again, "I don't know why you drank so much. Maybe you were too happy. Anyway, we're getting divorced, so I have no right to intervene. I'm leaving."Rosalie was about to turn away when Theodore grabbed her wrist. "I'll take you back."His once drunkenly hazy eyes became clear when he looked at her.Rosalie forcefully shook his hand off. "No need. But I told Grandma we aren’t going home tonight because we’re out celebrat

    "So what if we're getting divorced? Didn't you say you see me as a brother?" Theodore said."Since I see you as a brother, we shouldn't be this intimate. It's inappropriate," Rosalie countered.Suddenly, an elderly voice rang out, "What's going on? Who's being inappropriate?"They turned to see Rebecca leaning on her cane, being assisted by the butler as she approached."Look at you two. You're not even inside the house yet and are already hugging so tightly. That's really inappropriate," Rebecca remarked.In fact, she was actually delighted to see her grandson and granddaughter-in-law being so affectionate.Rosalie immediately broke free from Theodore's embrace and went to Rebecca's side."Grandma, why are you out so late?" she asked, holding the older woman's arm.Judging from Rebecca's behavior, it seemed she hadn't heard Rosalie and Theodore talking about their divorce earlier. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so calm."I was bored, so I came to see if Theo really took you out f

    "You're hurt," said Theodore, staring at his wife's wrist.The abrasion on her wrist was shallow, but it seemed deeply etched in his eyes."I'm fine. I'll put on a Band-Aid later. You go ahead and take a shower.""Let's shower together."Theodore looked up and calmly gazed at her. He said those words as naturally as he had brought up getting a divorce.Throughout their marriage, the couple often showered together, and sometimes, they couldn't resist...Staring into Theodore's dark eyes, Rosalie felt flustered and confused, but she still forcefully pulled her hand away."It's fine. You go ahead and shower."Since they had chosen to get divorced, there was no point in being tender to each other now.Theodore's hand was suddenly empty. When he returned to his senses, Rosalie had already left the room.-When Rosalie walked into the room carrying a bowl of soup, she found that Theodore hadn't come out of the bathroom yet. Concerned, she went to the bathroom to check on him, only

    Theodore's long eyelashes fluttered, then he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.Rosalie gently nudged his shoulder. No response. It seems this drunkard was alternating between being sober and being out of it.Rosalie had no choice but to resort to slowly feeding him mouth-to-mouth. Theodore didn't open his eyes again but swallowed everything. When he was done, Rosaline wiped the corner of his mouth with a tissue.Seeing Theodore sleeping soundly, she tucked him in and headed to the bathroom. After showering and drying off, Rosalie stood by the bed, staring at Theodore for a while. Since they were getting divorced, sleeping together didn't seem appropriate.She was about to go to the next room to sleep when suddenly, the phone on the bedside cabinet started vibrating.Rosalie picked up the phone to see the caller ID showing Cynthia's name.Her heart skipped a beat. Thinking of the past, Rosalie suddenly felt an impulse. She answered the call, putting the phone to her ear.

    Rosalie found Theodore's questioning tone laughable. He was the one who had brought up getting a divorce because he was eager to be with another woman.What right did he have to be unhappy?"The sooner we sign, the sooner it's over, which works out in your favor," Rosalie remarked before pulling back the covers and getting out of bed.Even if her heart felt like it was being torn apart, she refused to shed tears in front of him. Before they got married, she had made it clear that if he wanted a divorce, she wouldn't cling to him. Now, she had to stick to her word.Theodore stared at her retreating figure with furrowed brows. Wouldn't the divorce work out more in her favor?Just as Rosalie reached the bathroom door, she suddenly turned around. "Oh, by the way, Cynthia called last night. I told her you were asleep. Sorry for answering your phone."Having said that, she entered the bathroom.After a while, Theodore picked up his phone and dialed Cynthia's number."Hey, Theo.""I

    "Let's wait a bit longer. Grandma was in a good mood last night. If we suddenly bring up divorce, she won't be able to handle it.""Okay." Rosalie suddenly remembered something and added, "Don't worry. When we tell her, I'll say that I initiated the divorce. I'll tell Grandma that I only married you out of respect for her."Although you've been good to me, being with you hasn't made me happy at all. It's not your fault. I just have feelings for someone else. Grandma cares for me deeply, so she probably won’t hold it against you if I frame things that way."Even as they were about to divorce, Rosalie was primarily concerned about Theodore. She was doing everything she could to ensure Rebecca wouldn't blame him.Theodore stirred the cereal in his bowl, not taking a bite for a long while. His lips twitched, as if he was smiling yet suppressing something.After a long silence, he said darkly, "The way you say it sounds like that's truly what you feel."He looked up, his eyes simmerin

    "Let go of me! I said I'm fine, can't you understand?" Rosalie exclaimed.Rosalie had always been patient. This was the first time she had lost her temper at Theodore.If she went to the hospital, he would definitely find out she was pregnant. Since they were getting divorced, he couldn't know about the child. If that happened, he would be tied to her because of the child, and he would surely hate them both."That'll be up to the doctor to decide. Be good, okay?" Theodore insisted as he forcibly carried her out of the room."Theodore, you're right. Those are my true feelings. I'm not happy with you!"Theodore abruptly stopped, his brows furrowing slightly.She endured the discomfort and continued, "I've put up with you for a long time, so I got a bit emotional when you asked me that. I'm fine. I've just endured too much in this marriage, and now I want to be free. I want to be alone. Let me go!"Her fists clenched tighter as she spoke. Saying these words felt like she was tearin

    It was like a long, long nightmare.Rosalie didn't know how much time had passed. All she could remember was herself walking in the desert for a long, long time. She felt tired, thirsty, and hot. She saw no end to the desert and she seemed to be looking for something, although she had forgotten who she was.Just as she fell from tripping over a stone and found herself unable to crawl back up, a man appeared before her.Rosalie looked up, and tears welled up in her eyes the moment she saw who it was.She suddenly remembered who she was and she reached out a trembling hand, calling out, "Justin… Justin…!"Her voice was hoarse.Justin crouched down. "Rose.He reached his hand out, as tender as before.Rosalie felt as though she had found her lifeline. Yet right before their hands touched, a loud gunshot sounded as she saw a bullet pierce mercilessly through Justin's chest. Blood trickled down the wound.Justin collapsed to the ground."No…no, no!"Rosalie yelled at the top of h

    "Sebastian Carter, dare you kill me? Hahaha…!" Rosalie laughed.Her scornful laughter was akin to blades that pierced Sebastian's heart. He knew his time was up and all forms of pretense were useless.Although he refused to concede defeat, he had no other choice.Anyone who loved this woman was bound to end up in a horrible plight.Out of the blue, he asked, "Theodore, do you love Rose?" "Of course I do, but I'm not as perverted as you are," Theodore spat."Yes, I'm perverted while your love is noble and dignified. At the very least, Rose loved you once, but what about me? She has never loved me." Sebastian chuckled bitterly, tears filling his eyes. "I just want her to love me! What wrong have I done? I just don't want to lose the woman I love. How is that wrong?"Until now, Sebastian refused to admit his wrongdoings. He might know it in his heart, but he refused to admit it outright.Tears of indignation rolled down his cheeks as he bawled like a child. "The only wrong I di

    Sebastian gritted his teeth as he vented his overwhelming wrath on Rosalie's body.Rosalie shut her eyes and bit down on her lips hard, bearing with the pain. She didn't cry out for fear that the people outside would hear her and realize the indecency that was going on.The men outside were shouting anxiously. Just then, one of their members ran over with an electric drill in hand. "I found this! Let's try it."A loud drilling sound came from the door. A few minutes later, the door lock finally came loose.The door was kicked open with a loud bang and Theodore barged in with his men. Sebastian and Rosalie were seated by the bedside, with Sebastian holding a gun pointed at Rosalie's temple.Rosalie's hair was in a mess, with tears streaming down her face. Her sleep gown was all tattered and torn.Fire burned in Theodore's eyes when he saw the scene before him. "Sebastian Carter, what did you do?!""I did everything you can imagine! If you don't believe me, just watch." Sebast

    Rosalie was sound asleep when she heard a commotion from outside.Then, shrieks pierced the air.At that moment, the door to her room was locked open and the lights were switched on. Rosalie felt the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against her temple.Sebastian's face was dark with fury as he yanked Rosalie out of the bed."What happened?" she asked.She saw his sweat-beaded brow and knew something serious had happened.Sebastian yanked the rope in his hand and Rosalie tumbled into his arms. He wrapped an arm around her waist and pointed a gun at her forehead with another.Rosalie panted hard. "Sebastian Carter, are you going to kill me? Just shoot me!""Theodore's here. Do you want to see him?""What did you say?" Rosalie was shell-shocked. "He's here?""What, are you very happy?"A flurry of gunshots sounded outside the room."Do you hear that? He's here to rescue you," Sebastian said with a smirk.Rosalie took a deep breath and said, "Why aren't you making a run for it? If

    Before his departure, Theodore carried Steve in his arms for a long time, saying many things to him."Stevie, I'm so sorry. If anything were to happen to Daddy, I can't take care of you anymore. I know I should be doing that and that I shouldn't be so selfish, but I can't help it. I have to go save Mommy. If I don't come back, you must listen to Grandpa and Grandma. They will take care of you."Theodore kissed his cheek. "I left you many videos, enough to last you till you turn 18. Remember to watch one every year on your birthday. I want you to know that I'll remember you forever."He started tearing up. "I'm sorry, Daddy needs to go. I'll protect myself and your mommy as best as I can. We'll definitely find a way back home."Theodore put Steve back into his cot."Dada…" Steve leaned against the edge of the cot and blinked innocently at Theodore."I'm sorry. Daddy's leaving." He planted a final kiss on Steve's cheek and left, his heart breaking.Steve plopped onto the mattr

    They were thirty hours away from the launch of the rescue operation.Theodore called Sydney and Wesley over for a talk in the living room. With his solemn expression, the atmosphere was very tense."I called you two over because I have something very important to tell you.""What is it?" Wesley asked."If I were to die, please take good care of Steve."Shock registered on both their faces when they heard Theodore's words."Theo, what do you mean by that?" Sydney asked. "What happened? You've been acting so secretively as of late. I don't see you and can't even reach you. In fact, I can't reach Rose, either."She sensed that something major had happened, but no one was telling her what it was. She even tried contacting Christopher to understand what was going on, but he refused to breathe a word about it.The rescue operation had to be kept under wraps. Theodore and Christopher hid it from everyone else for fear of unnecessary complications and information leaks. They couldn't a

    In the dark, silent night, moonlight flitted about in the night sky like a weak flame on a candle in the endless darkness.Clouds covered the sky and the night breeze felt chilly, like a sneaky thief drawing close under the cover of the night.The office was a mess, the darkness outside melting into the tense atmosphere in the room.There were many computers laid out on the large table, information and data blinking rapidly on the screen like the stars in the night sky, piercing through one's nerves.Theodore was leading the pack, walking around the periphery of the table amidst the tense atmosphere, his attention completely drawn toward the computer screens. Everyone was involved in this extremely dangerous and challenging rescue operation. They were now at the stage of planning for the rescue operation.Christopher was involved, as well. Half of the men in the office room were working under him.Theodore placed the report he received on the table and said to Christopher, "Vel

    Nana's tears fell down her cheeks as she clutched the blanket tightly, her small body trembling.Sebastian was originally furious. He had suffered at Rosalie's hands, but upon seeing Nana's pitiful appearance, the anger inside him began to subside. He moved closer to her and reached out his hand, but she shrank back in fear.Sebastian forcibly pulled the blanket off Nana and lifted her. He then walked toward the balcony.Nana was terrified, but she dared not move recklessly. She could only silently shed tears, too scared to cry out loud.Sebastian carried Nana to the balcony, where a cool breeze blew. He sat down in the chair on the balcony, placing Nana on his lap."Nana, are you upset with Daddy for not saving you at that time?"Nana lowered her head and kept silent."I could only save one of you. Your mother was right by my side, and you were far from me. I couldn't get to you in time."Though if given another chance, he would still save Rosalie."You didn't die, so you're lucky. I

    Sebastian took a deep breath, seemingly trying to hold back his anger. Finally, he said in a calm tone, "Let's eat first. We have plenty of time ahead of us. Rose, think about it. You're just in your twenties, and we still have so many years to go. This is just the beginning."Sebastian was not in a hurry because he was the one in control. He still had plenty of time with Rosalie. He would slowly make this woman obey him.After lunch, Sebastian didn't stay long. Even though he wanted to talk to Rosalie, she wouldn't say anything pleasant. Listening to her would only frustrate him.Just as he reached the door, Rosalie called out to him. "Wait a moment."It was rare for her to call him. Sebastian couldn't help but feel a flicker of expectation in his heart.Rosalie asked, "Won't you sleep with me tonight?"There was a hint of mockery in her eyes when she said this. Sebastian's brows furrowed tightly. He knew she was humiliating him. She was saying this on purpose, trampling on his pride
