In the ward, only the two of them remained.


    Sebastian smiled awkwardly. “Don’t mind her, Rose. She never thinks before she talks.”


    “It’s okay, actually. It’s kind of nice. She doesn’t have any ulterior motives, and I quite like her,”


    Rosalie said.


    She got off the bed, and bent down to put on her shoes.


    Sebastian immediately walked up to her and crouched. “Let me help you.”

    He knelt down on one knee, held her ankle, and picked up a shoe.


    Rosalie instinctively pulled back.


    Sebastian seemed to notice, and lifted his head. “Let me help you, You have low blood sugar. If you


    get dizzy againter, it’s not good for the baby.”


    He then carefully shipped her foot into the shoe. Even in the simple. act of helping her put on her


    shoes, his movements were gentlemanly


    and courteous.


    Looking at Sebastian helping her with her shoes, Rosalie’s eyes. briefly misted over.


    The scene felt familiar. She suddenly remembered the time Theodore. had done the same for her. It


    was shortly after they had got married.


    “Ow, ow, ow!” Rosalie groaned, clutching her stomach in pain and rolling around on the bed.


    At the time, she had only been married to Theodore for a week. Theodore had left early in the


    morning, and she had nned to go to


    school. However, the pain in her stomach was so intense that she couldn’t walk.


    She had also forgotten to take painkillers beforehand, and now, it was toote. Her painkillers


    usually took two hours to take effect, and by the time they worked, the pain would already have


    subsided.


    Her stomach always hurt badly during her menstrual period. This had been going on for several


    years now, but the pain usually went away after two to three hours.


    Rosalie was curled up under the navy nket, trembling. She tossed and turned, asionally


    letting out painful groans,pletely unaware that the door had been opened and footsteps were


    rapidly approaching.


    With a rustle, the nket covering her head was lifted, and a man’s worried face appeared above


    her. “What’s wrong?”


    Arge hand reached up to her forehead. It was sticky with sweat, but her skin was cold.


    “Theo, why are you back?” she asked in surprise.


    He had gone to thepany early this morning, hadn’t he?


    “The butler said you didn’t go to university today, and that you were in your room all day. I called


    your phone, but you didn’t answer, so I came back to check on you.”


    Rosalie was stunned for a few seconds. At that instant, she even forgot about the pain. He had


    returned because of her?


    She was in so much pain that her phone had slipped from her hand and fallen to the ground,


    causing the screen to crack. Perhaps it was broken, so when Theodore called her, there was no


    sound.


    Rosalie struggled to sit up on the bed. “I’m fine.”


    “You say you’re fine, but look at yourplexion.” Theodore wiped the sweat from her forehead, his


    brow furrowing. “Let me take you to the hospital.”


    “It’s nothing, really.” She waved her hand. “I’m not sick, I just… I just…”


    “Just what?” Theodore asked.


    Rosalie lowered her head, feeling a bit embarrassed. “I just got my period. It’s just normal menstrual


    cramps. I’ll be fine in a few hours. You don’t need to worry. Go back to your work.”


    She was in such a sorry state now; herplexion must be terrible. She didn’t want Theodore to


    see her like this. Everyone wanted to show their best side to their beloved


    Theodore was staring at her, but she didn’t dare to meet his gaze. She kept avoiding his eyes and


    turning her head away. If she had known he woulde back today, she would have forced herself


    to go to school or leave home.


    Theodore pinched her chin lightly, turning her head to face him.


    “Why are you avoiding me?”
