"I don''t know," Rosalie said, looking at him sadly. "I only know that if you hurt him, it''s the same as hurting me."
Theodore couldn''t help but clench his fists. Indeed, Rosalie and Sebastian were married now. Hurting either one of them meant hurting the other.
He wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat. What could they reach an agreement on in the restroom, and with Reba outside? It would just end badly. The more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make.
He sighed and turned, opening the door of the restroom to leave.
Rosalie stood there for a long time. Her heart ached painfully. After quietly wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes and regaining herposure, she made her way back.
Reba was ecstatic to hear that Rosalie and Theodore had agreed to attend the wedding as a married couple.
"You''re such good children. Thank you for indulging my vanity. I feel a bit guilty. I promise I won''tpare anymore next time. At my age, being vain is really shameful."
Rosalieforted her, "Grandma, don''t feel guilty. We''re happy to do something for you."
"You really are good children." Reba knew they must have had a private discussion and, apparently, it wasn''t a quarrel. It was good; at least they could talk things out properly now.
After dinner, Theodore and Rosalie chatted with Reba for a long time.
Before they knew it, it was veryte, and it was time for them to leave. Reba reluctantly saw them to the door.
"Theo, make sure you get Rose home safely. If she loses even a single strand of hair, I won''t forgive you," Reba said sternly.
Theodore replied, "Grandma, don''t worry. I''ll make sure she gets home safely."
"Don''t bully Rose and don''t be harsh with her, understand?" Reba seemed to have no trust in Theodore.
Rosalie stepped forward. "Grandma, we were fine on the way here. Don''t worry. I''ll call you when we get back. If he bullies me, I''ll tell you."
"Yes, you must! Don''t protect him.
It''s fine that you protected him when he was your husband. Now that you''re divorced, you shouldn''t
continue doing that. If he dares to be harsh with you, tell me right away. I''ll teach him a lesson."
Regardless of whether they were married or divorced, Reba would always side with Rosalie.
Rosalie felt warmth in her heart. "I got it, Grandma. I will."
Despite agreeing, Rosalie had never spoken ill of Theodore to Reba, even though she had been deeply hurt by him. She had always bottled up her frustrations alone.
Theodore drove Rosalie back.
The drive was very quiet, until Theodore suddenly spoke up. "Should I take you back to the hospital? Or somewhere else?"
Rosalie replied, “Back to the hospital, thank you.”
“Are you nning to stay at the hospital for a month to apany Sebastian?"Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.
"Yes, I''ll stay with him at the hospital until he''s discharged." she replied.
"No wonder you look unwell. Taking care of him in the hospital every day must mean you can''t rest properly."
Thinking about Rosalie taking care
of Sebastian, Theodore involuntarily tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He couldn''t bear for her to do such things, but now, another man enjoyed it as if it were his right.
How much better it would be if they hadn''t divorced!
Unable to stop himself, he said
bitterly, "If he really cared about you, he wouldn''t want you to stay in the hospital all the time. He could get professional care."
