Cynthia was reduced to tears. “Theo, you must believe me. I swear I didn’t say that to Rosalie.”
Theodore tried to speak up for Cynthia. “She’s already exined that
she didn’t say that. Maybe Rose misheard her, and there was a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding? Ha ha ha…” Rebaughed. “What kind of misunderstanding will make her
think that I want to harm her? Is she refusing to admit her own words? You think Rose might have
misheard her, but I’m of the opinion that she’s changing her words
now.”

“Ma’am, how am I supposed to admit that I said something I didn’t? I’m not lying to you, I…”
“Cynthia Zeller,” Reba cut her off, “I don’t care whether you’re
ndering me or you’re hinting that I’m the one who did it. Either way, you’re sowing discord on
purpose. Let me make myself clear. I did not stop you from going through the procedure. Even if
you were just guessing, you’re maliciously trying to create a rift between me and Theodore. What a
wicked woman you are!”
“I’m not, I’m not!” Cynthia shrieked in agitation, grabbing Theodore’s arm. “Theo, trust me. I really
didn’t do so, I didn’t.”
She turned around, and pointed fingers at Rosalie.
“Rosalie, why are you making trouble and causing things to turn out like this? What good does this
do for you?”
Tears washed her face, making for a pitiful scene. As long as Theodore believed her, she didn’t
care if everyone else didn’t.
Rosalie suddenly stood up, and said coldly, “Cynthia, you clearly told me at that time that it was
Grandma who stopped your operation. You didn’t say that it was just a guess. I swear that if I were
lying or taking your words out of context, then I’ll get hit by a car on the streets! Dare you swear that
you’ll never marry Theodore if you were lying? Do you?”
“Rosalie, you’re too much! How have I offended you for you to treat me this way?!” Cynthia cried as
she dashed into Theodore’s embrace.
“Enough!” Theodore red at Rosalie. “If swearing were of use, lying and cheating wouldn’t exist in
this world. Since this is a case of her word against yours and no one knows who’s telling the truth, I
think we should just forget about this!”
Rosalie scoffed. “You’re really ying things down. Do you really think Grandma was behind this, or
are you just blindly believing everything that Cynthia says?”
“I have no need to exin to you,” Theodore said coldly.
“Do you have a need to exin things to me, then?” Reba was on the verge of pulling her hair
out from her grandson’s actions. “I am your grandmother. Since you’ve misunderstood me, don’t I
deserve an exnation from you?”
“Grandma, it no longer matters whether you’re the one behind this.”
“It matters very much to me,” Reba spat out angrily. “Theodore Spencer, you’ve received the
very best education since you were young. I didn’t expect you to be so blinded by a woman that
you’re simply disregarding everything! Ever since Cynthia appeared, you’ve been an idiot. This
woman doesn’t do you any good at all. Conversely, she’s bringing you all sorts of trouble. Can’t you
see? She’s even creating a rift, crying and yelling the moment she’s exposed! Yet you’re still
stubbornly defending her?”
“Cynthia wasn’t the one trying to create a rift between us,” Theodore snapped, in a fit of pique. “If
Rosalie hadn’t mentioned this out of the blue, how would all of you know about it? I think she’s the
one making all this trouble!”
