Seeing Rosalie''s wary expression, Theodore scoffed. "Are you afraid I''ll press you against the wall and kiss you? Then you shouldn''t have called me here."


    Rosalie lowered her gaze. "I hope you don''t do such things here."


    "Not here?" Theodore smirked. "You mean I can do it somewhere else?"


    Rosalie frowned. "Stop joking. Let''s go out."


    Considering what he had done before, she knew he was capable of such actions. More importantly, she had texted him toe here. If he really did kiss her, it would be hard for her to defend herself.


    "I have a question for you."


    "What?" Rosalie asked.


    "You''re worried about Grandma, and so am I. She says she''s fine, but we don''t believe it without seeing her medical report. Now I''m worried about you. When was yourst check-up?"


    Rosalie felt a stab of pain in her heart. "Didn''t you take me for a check-up before our divorce? You already know everything, didn''t you?" Fortunately, Stephanie had helped her. Otherwise, she would have been exposed.


    "You weren''t feeling well, and the doctor said you had food poisoning. It wasn''t a thorough check-up. I''m talking about aprehensive examination," Theodore pressed.


    At the mention of aprehensive examination, Rosalie instinctively felt uneasy. "What does it have to do with you? We''re..."


    "I know we''re divorced," he interrupted. “But can''t an ex-husband show some concern for his ex-wife if she doesn''t look well? Is there anyw or moral code that forbids that?"


    Rosalie tried to remain calm. "Thank you for your concern, but I''m fine. I know my body better than you do. I care more about myself than anyone else."


    "Really? You don''t look it." Theodore brushed his finger against her face gently.


    Rosalie instinctively pulled back.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    Theodore''s hand hung in the air, and he withdrew it with a look of


    ???


    disappointment. “I know you care about yourself, but everyone can overlook things sometimes. Let me take you for aprehensive check-up when you''re free. Please, promise me?"


    Theodore''s voice was hoarse, and his tone was exceptionally gentle. It was almost seductive. His voice was as soothing as ate-night radio host, making her legs feel weak.


    Rosalie clenched her fists nervously.


    "Why should I promise you? Whether I get a check-up or not is my business. Even if someone apanies me, it should be my


    husband, not my ex-husband."


    “Can your husband take you right now? He''s lying in a hospital bed, unable to get up. Or I could ask him if I can take you."


    "No!" Rosalie yelled anxiously. "You can''t go to him! Stop disturbing him!"


    Her breathing became rapid after saying this. She was genuinely worried about Sebastian. She wouldn''t be able to hide it even if she wanted to. It was as if she feared Theodore might harm him.


    Every time Theodore saw how much


    Rosalie cared for Sebastian, a knife seemed to be stabbing his heart. He smiled bitterly. "Do you think I want I to harm him again because didn''t


    seedst time?"


    Rosalie didn''t know how to respond. She didn''t want Theodore and Sebastian to meet again, since they would fight every single time. "Sebastian is already in this state. Please, don''t hurt him."


    "Begging me?" Theodore''s smile grew more bitter. "You''re actually begging me. What do you think I''ll do to him?"
