The video showed Rosalie dining with Sebastian. They were both dressed elegantly, and even


    looked like a couple. What’s more, it happened to be her birthday.


    Theodore recalled Rosalie telling him that she first met Sebastian when she was receiving her


    bachelor’s degree at school. However, the video Caleb sent him clearly showed that it was before


    she got her bachelor’s degree.


    So, she had been lying to him all along. She had known Sebastian long before, but pretended they


    metter. She got involved with


    Sebastian, so she deliberately lied to him about not knowing Sebastian earlier!


    Hah… What a great liar!


    He couldn’t help but think of Rosalie saying she had had enough of this marriage. Each time he


    thought of it, his heart felt like it was being squeezed painfully..


    No wonder Rosalie said she had had enough, and was unhappy being with him. She had already


    liked someone else, and that someone was Sebastian.


    If she truly liked Sebastian, why didn’t she tell him from the start and lie instead? Theodore didn’t


    expect her to be such a good actress!


    The next morning, Rosalie received a call from Reba.


    Reba’s tone was slightly solemn. The old I requested her toe over, saying she had


    something to discuss.


    It made Rosalie uneasy.

    When Rosalie arrived at Reba’s ce, she was sitting in the living room. There was a cup of tea


    on the table, still steaming. She sat there silently, her emotions somewhat vacant, as if lost in


    thought.


    “Grandma.” Rosalie walked over with a smile, sitting beside Reba and taking her arm. “Why did


    you call me over so early? Did you miss


    me?”


    Reba smiled faintly, gently patting Rosalie’s hand. “Yes, I missed you. Do you find me


    annoying?”


    “How could I? Whenever you ask me toe, I’ll be there right away. I never find it annoying. I


    missed you too.”


    Seeing Rosalie’s cheerful demeanor, Reba suddenly sighed. “Oh, child. You always know how


    to make me happy.”


    “Who else can I make happy if not you, Grandma? I’m your little ray of sunshine.”


    “But what about yourself?” Reba raised her hand, and gently

    patted Rosalie’s face. “You keep your own sorrows inside, so who can make you happy?”


    The smile on Rosalie’s face gradually vanished. “Grandma, what are you… What are you talking


    about? I’m not sad, I’m happy.”


    Suddenly, she felt flustered inside.


    “Silly girl, don’t lie to me. I know you’re hurting inside, and Theodore isn’t helping matters.”


    Reba’s tone turned harsh as she spoke.


    Rosalie hurriedly interjected, “Did you misunderstand Theo? Did he say something wrong and upset


    you again? Tell me, I’ll talk to him


    I get back.”

    Rosalie’s. “I know.”


    Rosalie pursed her lips. “Grandma… What do you know?”


    “Do you remember your birthday? I went to see you. It waste at night, and you and Theodore


    were outside talking.”


    Rosalie stayed silent.


    Reba continued, “Actually, I heard everything you two said. You were talking about getting a


    divorce.”


    “Grandma, I…” Rosalie’s heart raced, unsure of how to exin.


    Reba’s tone remained calm as she continued, “Rose, don’t worry. I’m not angry with you, nor do


    I me you. I just want to hear the truth.”


    Rosalie was silent. With Reba bringing it up now, she saw no point in hiding it anymore.


    “Yes, you heard it right,” she confessed.


    Reba closed her eyes. She took a deep breath, and slowly opened them again.


    “I never thought this day woulde so soon. I knew that Cynthia was a restless woman. She’s no
