A friend in need is a friend indeed. Stephanie personally witnessed. Rosalie shielding her with her


    own body despite her pregnancy. Such a friend was a friend Stephanie was determined to keep her


    entire life.


    “Don’t be so polite with me. We’re friends! Of course we should help. each other out. They’ve been


    taken away by the police and will pay the price for their actions. I’ll also speak to Theodore and see


    if he can keep them behind bars for longer. They are utterly unreasonable,” Rosalie said with fury.


    “Rosalie, did you cry?” Stephanie saw the redness in Rosalie’s eyes.


    Rosalie chuckled awkwardly.


    “It must be because of your husband,” Stephanie surmised. “At first, I had some reservations about


    your him. From what I saw today, my perspective of him has changed. No matter what, he was


    willing to protect you at the most critical moment. Very few men are capable of doing that.”


    “Yeah, it’s just a pity…” Rosalie sighed. “I feel very conflicted. I can’t deny he’s good in some areas,


    but he and Cynthia…”


    She smiled bitterly.


    “If I hadn’t married Theo, we might be as close as siblings and I wouldn’t feel so miserable.


    Theodore would simply be a good man to me, and his rtionship with Cynthia would be none of


    my business. The only mistake that happened was that I married him and became pregnant with his


    child.”


    Rosalie looked down, and caressed her belly.


    In this world, there was no such thing as a perfect life or a perfect


    husband.


    “Rose, are you really never going to tell him about the baby? You


    should know that your stomach will only grow bigger. You won’t be able to hide this for long if you’re


    not getting a divorce,” Stephanie said.


    “Yeah, I won’t.”


    Rosalie didn’t tell Theodore about it at the start because she thought they were going to get a


    divorce, and that she would leave after that


    But now that they weren’t getting a divorce for the time being, which might be the case for the next


    few months or even years, she knew the truth would be out sooner orter.


    “Rose, you better think this through. If you’re not getting a divorce, I suggest you tell him about it. If


    he found out about it himself, you might be in for another fight.”


    “What if he doesn’t want the child?” Rosalie said, worried.


    “You’re so silly,” Stephanie said. “This child belongs to you, too. So what if he doesn’t want it? If you


    insist on giving birth, he can’t do anything about it. If he forces you to have an abortion, just run far


    away. Would he really search for you to the ends of the world just to force you to abort the baby?


    What’s more…”


    After pondering for a moment, Stephanie went on, “He might want this child, for all you know. He


    might be very happy to hear the news, and decide to cut things off with Cynthia for good and live


    with you the rest of his life.”


    Rosalie’s heart ached. “Steph, don’t give me hope. I might just take it seriously.”


    She no longer dared to hold out hope in her heart. Being hopeful and then having her hopes


    dashed would thoroughly break her heart.

    “I just want you to give things a chance. The worst case scenario would just be you leaving him. You


    two are staying married only for the time being. Who knows what will happen in the future? You


    really won’t be able to keep your pregnancy under wraps for longer.”


    What Stephanie said made sense.


    Rosalie nodded. “Okay, I’ll think it through.”
