    "Aunt, it''s okay. She might be mad at me because of my rtionship with Theo... ''Cynthia paused, looking ashamed. "But Aunt, please believe me. I didn''t intend to break them apart. I''ve known Theo for a long time. We were a couple even before Rosalie and Theo got married.


    Tears welled up in her eyes as she portrayed herself as a fragile victim, making Rosalie seem indifferent inparison.


    "Okay, stop crying. I understand." Sydney quickly pulled out some tissues and wiped


    Cynthia''s tears. "That pretty face of yours won''t look good if it tums red from crying. Theo would feel sorry for you."


    "Okay, Aunt, I won''t cry. I''m happy to have lunch with you today," said Cynthia, immediately stopping her tears.


    She was such an obedient girl, the type who waspletely beloved by elders.


    Rosalie was speechless. Was this lunch Sydney''s way of meeting her future daughter-inw? If so, why did Rosalie have toe?


    "Thank you, Aunt."


    "Mom, I have some things to attend to. If there''s nothing else, I''ll leave," said Rosalie, not wanting to stay there a moment longer.


    "What''s the rush? Didn''t we agree on thisst night on the phone? You''re free today. Can''t you spare some time to have lunch with me? Don''t be childish just because Ms. Zeller is here. Be mature,'' Sydney scolded.


    "I..."


    Rosalie felt annoyed. Was it still her fault for being childish? Was she immature? It was really frustrating. If Sydney weren''t Theodore''s mother, she definitely wouldn''t tolerate this.


    A smug smile appeared on Cynthia''s lips. It seemed that her future mother-inw didn''t like Rosalie. How dare Rosalie ssh water on her face? No matter. Though someone was currently avenging her, Cynthia didn''t intend to let Rosalie off the hook so easily.


    After a while, the waiter brought the dishes they ordered. The three women ate and chatted together. It was mostly Sydney and Cynthia talking, while Rosalle remained quiet. Although Rosalie wasn''t really hungry, she ate all the food she ordered for the sake of her baby. On the other hand, Cynthia didn''t eat much.


    When they were almost done, Sydney picked up her bag and took out a folder from it.


    "Aunt, what''s this?" Cynthia asked curiously.


    Sydney opened the folder and took out a torn document. "These are the divorce papers signed by Theo and Rose."


    "Mom, why did you bring this?" Rosalie asked in confusion.


    She thought the divorce papers had been torn into pieces and thrown away long ago, and


    hadn''t expected Sydney to be pulling them out here.


    "I was going to throw it away, but I pieced it together and looked at the contents. I don''t think it''s fair for Theo to give you these properties," Sydney exined.


    As she ced the divorce papers and the folder on the table, she added, "I''ll go to the restroom first and talk to you about thister.


    As soon as Sydney left, Cynthia immediately picked up the tom divorce papers and tried to piece them together. The contents shocked her.


    Putting down the documents, she red angrily at Rosalie. "You''re really bold to ask for so much money!"


    Cynthia was practically dizzy with anger. What was even more infuriating was that Rosalie had asked for so much, and Theo had actually agreed to give her everything she wanted! ording to the divorce papers, the properties given to Rosalie amounted to at least two billion dors!


    Theo was really generous. What right did this woman have to receive that much?This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
