Sebastian knew that Rosalie was feeling very emotional right now, and therefore didn’t step forward


    and add to the chaos. Otherwise, it would only serve to add fuel to the fire. Instead, he simply stood


    behind her silently.


    Rosalie turned to look at Sebastian, and grabbed his arm. “Sebastian, let’s go.”


    She really didn’t want to stay here a minute longer. She had seen through things, and she was


    feeling exhausted.


    Rosalie dragged Sebastian away in a bid to leave, but Theodore took a step forward.


    “Rose,” he called out.


    “Theodore Spencer!” Rosalie turned around and red coldly at him, the usual tenderness in her


    eyes all but gone. “Stay here and continue frolicking around with Cynthia if you wish. From now on,


    we’ll only be husband and wife in name. I won’t interfere in your business, so please don’t interfere


    in mine either.”


    She waspletely disappointed with him.


    Rosalie left with Sebastian, while Theodore felt as though there were two huge rocks tied to his feet


    that stopped him from taking a step forward. He could only stand idly by as he watched her


    disappear into the distance, as if nevering back.


    “Theodore…”


    Cynthia ran over in tears, and cupped his cheeks in her hands.


    “Are you alright? You’re bleeding. I’ll call for a doctor right away to get you checked.”

    “No need.” Theodore pushed her hand away, and looked coldly at her. “Cynthia, what exactly is


    going on?”


    “What?” Cynthia ked doubtfully at him.


    “You know what I’m talking about. Why was I lying on the bed with you?”


    “…” Cynthia stammered.


    The mix of evasiveness and guilt in Cynthia’s eyes gave Theodore a thought.


    “Did you spike my coffee?”


    He remembered feeling very tired after drinking the coffee. The next thing he knew after he woke


    up, Rosalie and Sebastian were already


    in his room.


    “I…” Cynthia clenched the hem of her shirt, looking very nervous.


    She knew she couldn’t hide the truth from him, and decided toe


    clean.


    “Yes, I spiked your coffee with sleeping pills.”


    Theodore’s face darkened with anger. “Why did you do that?”


    They had always been sleeping separately, and couldn’t possibly end up on the same bed. Yet


    something like this happened today of all days, and Rose had to witness the scene.


    He had every reason to be suspicious of Cynthia!


    The anger in his eyes frightened Cynthia so badly, she started shaking. all over.


    “I just thought that you’ve been looking so tired over the past few days. You keep drinking at night


    instead of resting properly. I was worried about your health, so I added some sleeping pills in your


    coffee so you could rest well. I just want you to have a good night’s sleep, that’s all.”


    “Is that so? Is that also why you slept on my bed, too?”


    The suspicion and anger in his eyes made anger and indignation rise in her chest.


    “So what if I sleep on your bed, Theodore? I know you’re still married, but does it make a


    difference? You know what’s going on between us. I love you too much. I just want to rest in the


    embrace of the man I love! What’s wrong with that? I’ve been waiting for you patiently over the


    years, watching you get married to Rosalie against my wishes. You husband and wife did it together


    so many times, while I remain all alone. And now… All I want to do is toy down by your side and


    sleep with you, to feel my beloved man hug me to sleep. Is that such a heinous crime?”


    Cynthia sobbed miserably as she crumpled weakly on the floor. She hugged her knees, her body


    wracked with sobs.


    “Is it so wrong of me to love you? Didn’t you n on marrying me? What did I do wrong?”
