Rosalie nodded with a smile. "Okay."


    "Did you find anything after looking through all those documents?" Sydney asked.


    Rosalie said, “They crunched their numbers so beautifully, it''s almost perfect. But I don''t think it''s possible for argepany to not encounter any issues at all, what with their sudden, rapid expansion within such a short period of time. Sometimes, the more perfect something seems, the greater the hidden issues-maybe even more so than something that appears imperfect."


    She went on, "What''s more, the share price of Regent Co. is very high right now. I have a feeling it''s going to be an open target."


    Sydney smiled. "Not bad, you have potential. Sometimes, however, it''s not enough to just judge based on a feeling. You have to present solid evidence to convince others."


    Rosalie nodded. "Okay. I''ll continue searching for it."


    Sydney said, "Don''t be anxious. Take it easy. You must have patience in whatever you do."


    Rosalie nodded. "I got it."


    "But..." Sydney said doubtfully, "you''re so eager to look through information regarding Regent Co. and find something. Why do I feel like you have another motive aside from just curiosity and the desire to learn something?"


    "I..." Rosalie smiled coyly.


    She did have another motive, but it wasn''t for herself. She had heard about Regent Co. in Sebastian''s office, and knew that Skycrest Enterprise had lost to Regent Co.


    Since she was in the know of something like this, she thought it a good idea to investigate matters and see if she could help.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    "It''s fine, you don''t need to tell me." Sydney pulled out some food from the fridge. "Can you help me wash some vegetables?"


    "Sure."


    Rosalie stepped forward, and helped Sydney prepare dinner.


    Things were pleasant between them.


    Rosalie suddenly realized that Sydney didn''t feel as cold as she usually did. Perhaps after hanging out with her for long, she realized that Sydney was just cold on the outside.


    Although Rosalie was divorced from Theodore, she had gotten used to calling Sydney "Mom".


    Sydney was used to it, too.


    "Try this," Sydney said as she spooned some food onto Rosalie''s te. “Eat more."


    "Thanks, Mom. You have some, too."


    "Don''t be such a stranger," Sydney said. "Since you call me ''Mom'', I treat you as my daughter. I see the baby in your belly as my grandchild." "Mom, you''ll be the first I tell once the baby is out."


    With one member of the Spencer family aware of her pregnancy, Rosalie suddenly didn''t feel so lonely anymore. At the very least, the grandmother of her baby knew of the baby''s presence.


    "What about Theo? He has the right to know, too," Sydney said.


    Rosalie fell silent.


    Sydney went on, "I''m not reprimanding you. I just think that you might not know how much Theo cares about you. I think he really likes you."


    Rosalie''s spoon fell into her soup

    on the dining table and even her fingers. It felt hot to the touch, but her mind was in a mess. All sense of pain seemed to elude her as her entire body stiffened.


    Sydney grabbed a napkin and handed it to her. “Wipe your hand with this.”


    Rosalie snapped back to attention, and took the napkin from Sydney to wipe her fingers. "Mom, how are you so confident that he likes me?" "Do you think he hates you, then?" Sydney asked her back.


    Rosalie pondered for a moment. “Even if he doesn''t hate me, he wouldn''t like me. Otherwise, why would he divorce me and marry Cynthia?"
