“If it looks good on you, keep wearing it. After you and Theo get divorced, I’m afraid he won’t be


    able to give you any more gifts,” Cynthia said as she lowered her head, a hint of darkness flickering


    her eyes.


    She picked up her utensils and took a bite of the lunch Rosalie ha made, nodding at the taste.


    “It’s really good. It’s a pity that after you divorce Theo, he’ll hardly g to eat something like this


    again.”


    Her tone sounded somewhat regretful, but perhaps concealed a hir of satisfaction.


    “You take your time eating. I’ll leave first,” said Rosalie.


    Rosalie wouldn’t really stay to foolishly take care of Cynthia. This woman didn’t need her care.


    “Wait.” Cynthia stopped her. “Didn’t Theo tell you why you’re here? I‘ you leave like this now, he


    won’t be happy.”


    She was acting in apletely domineering manner, speaking in a tone that was gentle but carried


    a warning.


    “Ms. Zeller, what do you want to hear from me? Don’t you and Theodore understand your


    rtionship the best? Do you really feel guilty about me divorcing him?” Rosalie asked.


    Rosalie was divorcing Theodore, and Cynthia was clearly the one benefiting from it. Yet, Cynthia


    came here talking about feeling guilty, wanting the original wife to exin it herself.


    It was ridiculously absurd. Was Cynthia trying to act noble in this situation?

    Mrs. Spencer, oh no, I’ll just call you Rosalie. You won’t be Mrs. Spencer for long, anyway,” said


    Cynthia in a tone that wasn’t as polite anymore.


    “Whatever.” Rosalie didn’t care how others addressed her.


    Cynthia sighed softly. “Theo cares too much about me. That’s why he wanted you to exin things


    to me. He just needs to look at my face to know what I want. Between us…”


    “Ms. Zeller,” Rosalie interrupted her. She didn’t want to listen to Cynthia’s meaningless chatter,


    words that sounded innocent but were filled with cunning. “Theodore and I are about to get


    divorced. You don’t need to scheme anything. You’ll get the result you want soon.” Since Rosalie


    had been losing from the start, she might as well ept it openly.


    “Scheming?” Cynthia’s fragile expression suddenly turned somewhat ominous. “How dare you say


    those words? Because of you, I almost died. If we’re talking about scheming, it might be you who’s


    scheming against me!”


    Rosalie snorted lightly. “Ms. Zeller, don’t talk nonsense. I’ve barely seen you a few times. Why


    would I scheme against you?”


    Was Cynthia ndering her and trying to make Theodore hate her?


    “Are you pretending to be innocent or do you really not know?” Cynthia asked, seeming a bit angry.


    She suddenly clutched her chest as if breathing had be difficult.


    Rosalie furrowed her brows. “What’s wrong with you?”


    A strong sense of hatred shed in Cynthia’s eyes. “What’s wrong with me? Don’t you know? Didn’t


    you deliberately n everything?!”


    “You need to rify what you’re using me of. I haven’t deas


    anything,” Rosalie said, utterly confused.


    “Fine, then I’ll tell you. I only have half my lungs left, and I have a heart disease now,” Cynthia said


    through gritted teeth, her tone bing somewhat agitated.


    “What?!” Rosalie was shocked. “What happened?”


    “Rosalie, your parents were just ordinary employees. However, because of an incident years ago,


    they shut down the system in a timely manner and inexplicably became so–called heroes. And you,


    the daughter of those ‘heroes,’ naturally received recognition from the Spencer family’s matriarch!


    “From then on, you had ess to all resources. The olddy even treated you as Theo’s future


    wife. She was very controlling, and didn’t allow Theo to interact with other women.


    “Butter, Theo met me! He respects his grandmother a lot, so he endured everything silently. We


    could only watch each other from a distance, unable to be together because you were in the


    middle!”

    Rosalie clenched her fists. “Are you saying that I’m the one who broke you two apart? You were the


    one who went abroad! You left Theo.”


    “Yes, I went abroad. But if I had been perfectly fine, why would I leave him?! Haven’t you ever


    thought about it? Or were you just so happy that I left and happily married him, not caring about the


    reason?” Cynthia retorted.


    “Fine. Tell me, then. Why did you go abroad? If you and Theodore loved each other so much, why


    didn’t you hold on?” Rosalie


    questioned.
