“Grandma… When you love someone, it’s like being a moth to a me. Even if you know it’s a one–
way trip, you don’t care about the
consequences. Theo might be like that. He loves Cynthia so much that he disregards everything,
even the danger.”
In this world, some people’s love was wild and reckless.
“Then, let me ask you again. Do you really want to divorce him? Or is it because of Cynthia that you
feel you have to agree to Theo?”
“Grandma, I genuinely want to divorce him. Even if Cynthia suddenly vanished now, I’d still want a
divorce. It’s not so much about her anymore. It’s about Theo and me not being happy together.”
Afraid Reba might misunderstand, Rosalie hurriedly went on, “It’s not that Theo treats me badly.
I… I just feel exhausted, Grandma. I want freedom. I don’t want to be tied down by a man anymore.
From now on, I want to control my emotions myself.”
After going through so much, Rosalie was exhausted.
Each time she wanted a divorce, stupid idents kept happening. She once held onto a glimmer of
hope, wondering if fate was keeping them from divorcing.
But now, she couldn’t endure any longer.
Even if Cynthia suddenly left now… Even if Theo had a change of heart, Rosalie didn’t want to
continue holding on.
Reba could sense Rosalie’s mood. Though she was already old, she had once been young. She
knew that feeling. Once a man was bewitched, no amount of persuasion will work unless he sees it
for himself.
125 DOMUS.
Reba turned to Anthony, “Anthony, bring it here.”
“Alright.” Anthony turned and left.
After a while, he returned with the resident register.
Reba took the resident register, her voice hoarse. “Rose, this…is
for you.”
“Grandma…”
Rosalie never expected to receive the resident register this way. Reba had actually given it to
her so willingly.
Reba felt extremely ufortable. “Actually, I knew about it. You wanted to steal the resident
register. I also know you went to steal. the key.”
“Grandma, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to… I’m sorry.” Rosalie bowed
her head in shame.
All her little actions, Reba had known all along. The olddy just
hadn’t called her out on them.
“It’s not your fault, I understand. It’s my fault, thinking you two would be happy. I thought you and
Theo were really meant for each other, so I made that decision. My intentions were good, but things
turned out
like this.”

Reba’s only regret was making Rosalie sad.
“Grandma, I know you wanted both Theo and me to be happy. Your meant well, and we don’t me
you.”
Reba wiped the tears from her face. “Alright, here’s the resident register. I won’t hold onto it for
you anymore. After you divorce Theo, you might want to change your residency. By then…”
“Grandma…”
Rosalie didn’t know what to say. After divorcing Theodore, she and Theodore wouldn’t be on the
same resident register. She wouldn’t be a Spencer anymore.
To be precise, she had never been a member of the Spencer family. If it weren’t for Reba’s
kindness, she wouldn’t have enjoyed such at good life and education.
She could have her current life not because of her efforts of intelligence, but because she was lucky
enough to meet Reba.
At this moment, Rosalie couldn’t hold back her tears any longer. She had been holding on
desperately. But now, as she flipped through the resident register and saw Theodore’s name, tears
flooded down her
face.
“Don’t cry. Aren’t you holding your resident register now? Do what you want to do.”
“Grandma.” Rosalie hugged Reba. “I’m sorry I couldn’t make your happy.”
“Silly child! As long as you’re doing well, I’m happy. Whatever happens in the future, I just hope
you’ll be safe and healthy, and live the way.
you want.
“Whether you can be with Theo or not, I won’t force it. Actually, I’ve always known some things in
his heart, but I held onto a glimmer of hope. I pretended to be ignorant, and turned a blind eye to
everything. But in the end, it hurt you. For that, I apologize.”
Reba’s tears flowed freely, while Rosalie could hardly speak through her own sobs.
