Theodore tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep. Thinking about what Rose had said to him


    before she left made him feel like there was a gaping hole in his chest. The variousplex


    emotions.


    running through him left him feeling restless.


    He got out of bed and approached Rosalie’s room door. After hesitating for a while, he lightly


    knocked on the door.


    “Rose, are you asleep?”


    He received only silence as a reply. It was alreadyte, so she should be asleep by now. He turned


    to leave, but felt uneasy, so he turned back and knocked on the door again!


    “Rose, I need to talk to you. Can Ie in?”


    Still, nothing but silence.

    He sighed. “I know you don’t want to see me right now, but I want to apologize. I shouldn’t have


    spoken to you like that today.


    “I’ve been doing and saying everything wrong today, and I hurt you. I know I’m not a good man. I’m


    truly sorry. If I could have another chance, I would have been clear with you from the start. I would


    never hurt


    you. But unfortunately, there are no ‘ifs‘.


    “Let me in, okay? I want to talk to you calmly, without fighting. I feel like there are


    misunderstandings between us. Like about that crystal bracelet. I picked it out myself, I didn’t ask


    anyone else.”


    He knocked on the door again. “Rose, if you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as consent ande in,


    okay?”


    Gripping the doorknob, he pushed the door open to find an empty room, with the light left on and


    the bed unmade. The door of the


    LANDU SE


    attached bathroom was open too, but no one was inside.


    Theodore felt uneasy. Where could Rosalie be at this hour?


    He headed downstairs to look for her, but couldn’t find her anywhere. Just then, a servant who was


    still up happened to pass by and notice


    Theodore.


    “Master, do you need something?”


    “Have you seen Rose?” Theodore asked, frowning.


    “I saw Madam driving out.”


    “Did she say where she was going?”


    “She didn’t say anything. I just saw her driving away from a distance.”


    Theodore suddenly had a bad feeling. He immediately went upstairs, grabbed his phone, and dialed


    Rosalie’s number. Although it rang, she didn’t answer and simply rejected the call. He called again,


    but she just rejected it once more, so he immediately sent her a text message.


    [Where are you right now? Why did you go out sote? Why aren’t you picking up?]


    After sending the text, he called her several more times. Finally, someone answered.


    “Why do you keep rejecting my calls? Where did you go sote?” asked Theodore, annoyed.


    “Mr. Spencer, Rose doesn’t want to talk to you. Please don’t disturb


    her.”


    Theodore frowned upon hearing a voice that wasn’t Rosalie’s. “Who


    are you?”


    “I’m her friend, Stephanie Carter.”


    Stephanie? Theodore vaguely remembered her from his and Rosalie’s


    wedding, but wasn’t very familiar with her.


    “Where’s Rose?”


    “She’s at my ce, resting. Please don’t disturb her.”


    Just then, a voice echoed down the corridor, “Quick, we need blood for the patient!”


    “What’s that sound?” Theodore asked.


    “I’m watching TV,” Stephanie quickly said, covering the phone. “Rose is already asleep. If you need


    anything, you can talk to her tomorrow. Goodbye.”


    Theodore wanted to say something else, but Stephanie ended the call.


    The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became. He had distinctly heard something


    about a patient needing blood, but why would there be such a sound at Stephanie’s house? If Rose


    was asleep, why was Stephanie watching TV so loudly, to the point that Theodore could clearly


    hear what was being said?


    If he wasn’t mistaken, Rosalie was at the hospital right now! Theodore’s hands began to tremble.


    Had something happened to her?!
