"Mom, please stop saying these things. He doesn't love me!" Rosalie's emotions were getting out of control. "If he loved me, he wouldn't have divorced me for Cynthia, and he wouldn't have repeatedly chosen Cynthia over me and caused me so much pain! He doesn’t love me at all!""Because Theo is a fool!" Sydney said. "He wasn’t loved as a child, so he doesn't know what love is. He himself is confused! The purpose of meeting him today is so that you two can meet and talk it out, and for you to ask him whom he truly loves!""Did you arrange this meeting just so we can talk?" Rosalie took a few steps back. "No, I can't meet him. I've already said we're done with each other. I can't...""You stop right there!" Sydney grabbed her arm. "Rosalie, why are you so cowardly? What's wrong with meeting him?""He doesn't love me! Meeting him would just be humiliating! He divorced me for Cynthia. No matter what, I can't possibly salvage the relationship!"Though Rosalie's heart was in pain, and th
Rosalie returned once again to the house where she and Theodore used to live.This was their former marital home, decorated according to her preferences. They had lived happily here for a year. The house remained unchanged, but the people who used to live there weren’t the same anymore.As they entered the hall, Sydney noticed Wesley sitting on the sofa. "What are you doing here?"Every time Wesley saw Sydney, he felt excited. He stood up, straightened out his suit, and stood straight. Even though he was middle-aged, he still took care of his appearance meticulously.Without exaggeration, if Wesley were to appear in a drama as a matured and handsome president, just standing there could ignite a frenzy among older women."Sydney, why are you here too?" Wesley asked.Sydney frowned, feeling a sense of foreboding. Just then, Theodore walked out. "I asked them to come."He appeared before everyone, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, a simple and classic attire that never w
"These are all Rosalie’s favorite dishes. Aren't there any that I like?" Sydney seemed a bit jealous.Theodore looked up, and said, "I don't know what you like to eat, and you've never told me. We rarely eat together." He looked at his mother without much expression on his face.Sydney stiffened.Theodore continued helping Rosalie to the food.Rosalie turned and stared at Theodore's serious side profile, feeling a wave of bitterness in her heart. Did he have a split personality? Why else would he hurt her on one moment, and then be gentle on the next? "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom." Rosalie put down her cutlery, stood up, and left the dining room."Theo, why are you so close to your ex-wife?" Sydney asked, her words carrying a hidden meaning.He gave a lame excuse. "She has helped me before, hasn't she? What's wrong with me serving her some food? It's just common courtesy." "She helped you?" Sydney asked. "Are you referring to the night she stayed up with me, lookin
For as long as he could remember, she had never said that she didn’t love him. Neither did she say that she loved him.This was in fact a mystery to him. It was his own guess that Rosalie didn’t love him and wasn’t happy.Rosalie’s heart ached. She looked up at him and stared at him silently, her gaze sorrowful. Then, with a slight smirk, she asked, “Don’t you find yourself hilarious for asking me that question now? What exactly do you want?”“I want to know what you feel about me. I want the truth.” Theodore rested his palms on both sides of her face, circling her in his arms as he drew her. He was much taller than she was, and had to bend his neck down low to be near her. “So, tell me now. What exactly do you feel about me? I want the truth.”Theodore didn’t understand Rosalie, and she didn’t understand him either.They didn’t understand each other. There seemed to be a barrier that urgently needed to be broken, but there was a fear in doing so. Keeping things like this woul
Curled up under the covers, Rosalie Young gently caressed her belly. After a while, she breathed a sigh of relief.Thankfully, the baby was okay.When he came home last night, Theodore Spencer had wanted to be intimate. As the couple hadn't seen each other for two months, Rosalie couldn't bear to refuse him.Theodore had already woken up and washed up. He was wearing a gray custom suit that perfectly fit his tall and slender body, giving him an elegant and charming air. Currently, he was sitting in a chair with a tablet in hand. His fingers slid gracefully across the screen, exuding a hint of laziness and sensuality.Rosalie was wrapped tightly in the blanket with only her head exposed.When Theodore noticed her staring at him, he calmly asked, "Are you awake? Let's have breakfast.""Okay."Rosalie put on her pajamas, blushing as she crawled out of bed.In the dining room, Rosalie kept pushing her food around her plate as she caressed her belly with one hand. After a while, she
Rosalie lowered her head, smiling bitterly.What else could she ask for? She was sure she had exhausted all the luck in her life to get a chance to marry the man before her.Her parents were ordinary employees at SK Enterprise. They had been trapped in the control room during a fire, but had managed to shut down the critical systems before they died. Their actions prevented the release of toxic substances and avoided more casualties.The media had reported on the incident for several days straight, sharing recordings of her parents' last conversation with the outside world.Orphaned at the age of ten, Rosalie was taken in by her aunt, who was the only option available. However, the woman smoked, drank, and gambled. A year later, Rosalie’s aunt squandered all the money SK Enterprise had given the young girl to compensate for the loss of her parents.When Rosalie was eleven years old, her aunt dumped her at the doorstep of SK Enterprise.Clutching her backpack tightly to her chest,
"I didn't mean it that way," Rosalie snapped, feeling a bit angry.If she had meant it like that, she wouldn’t have let him touch her last night, especially since she was pregnant.Without saying anything else, Theodore carried her back to the bedroom and placed her gently on the bed. His movements were tender and caring, causing Rosalie to desperately hold back her tears.As he straightened her clothes, his large hands inadvertently brushed against her belly. Rosalie's heart skipped a beat. She quickly grabbed his hand and pushed it away. Her lower abdomen was still very flat, but instinctively, she felt guilty and was worried about being discovered.Theodore paused at her actions. "What's wrong?"Was she not letting him touch her now because they were about to get a divorce?"It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well and am feeling a bit dizzy," Rosalie explained, giving an excuse."Shall I call a doctor? You don't look too good."Theodore reached out and touched her forehead. S
"Yes, I still see you as a brother, just like you see me as a sister."Rosalie's throat grew increasingly tight, to the point where she could hardly produce another sound. If she could, she would have lifted the covers and rushed into his arms.She would tearfully tell him, "I've never seen you as a brother. I love you!"Instead, she restrained herself from doing something so pathetic. His heart belonged to another woman. Since that was the case, why should she lower herself and beg him like that?"That's good. Now, you can find a man you truly love,” Theodore said calmly with a faint smile.Rosalie's heart ached painfully again, but she forced a smile. "Yeah... That's great."Theodore could openly be with his first love now."Rose," he suddenly called out."Yeah?" Rosalie managed to reply in a strained tone."I..." Theodore suddenly stopped.Rosalie remained silent as she waited for him to continue."I'm leaving first. Get some rest, okay?"With that, Theodore turned and l
